Hi everyone
I use this code to get the point coordinates where i just clicked with my mouse:
Its working if i select a sketch point, and also if i click on 3D Model surface.
Sub main()
Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
Dim Part As ModelDoc2
Dim SelMgr As SldWorks.SelectionMgr
Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc
Set SelMgr = Part.SelectionManager
Dim point As Variant
point = SelMgr.GetSelectionPoint2(1, -1)
Debug.Print point(0) 'X
Debug.Print point(1) 'Y
Debug.Print point(2) 'Z
End Sub
I don't know why, sometime, when i'm editing a sketch, the coordinate axes can be reversed:
As you can see in this example, the 'X' axe of the sketch is in a reverse sens of the 'X' axe of the 3D model.
So if i click on a sketch point, i have the sketch coordinates.
And if i click on the surface of the Model, i got the 3D model coordinate ...: the negative of the X sketch coordinates, even if its in the same location.
Then if i want to insert a block in the sketch, by the way of clicking on the Model surface,
the block will appear in the symetrie of 'Y' axe, because X = - X.
Can you have a solution to coordonate (haha) the landmark?
Maybe a different code or a VBA trick?
Thank you very much!
