Hey Folks,

i have a simple Question: How do i start a new drawing with API and a Custom Template.

I have a drawing template file with full path:"D:\Temp\A0_custom.slddrt" and a document Template: "drawing based 0.drwdot"

The drawing template has a title block on it and a Frame around the sheet. Normaly when i start a no drawing (without API)

then i select the "A0_custom" template and click Ok. A new drawing with my title block is started.

So now i want to do this by API:

'Generate a new Drawing
        Dim drwDocument As sldworks.DrawingDoc
        Dim drwTemplate As String = "D:\Temp\drawing based 0.drwdot"
      
        Dim papTemplate As String = "D:\Temp\A0_custom.slddrt"
        Dim Result As Boolean
        'Create a new Drawing
        drwDocument = _swApp.INewDocument2(papTemplate, swDwgPaperSizes_e.swDwgPapersUserDefined, 0, 0)
        'Setup the Sheet
        Result = drwDocument.SetupSheet5("Test1", swDwgPaperSizes_e.swDwgPapersUserDefined, _
        swDwgTemplates_e.swDwgTemplateCustom, 1, 10, True, papTemplate, 0.2794, 0.2159, "Default", False)

Dim x As sldworks.ModelDoc2
        x = _swApp.ActiveDoc
        x.ForceRebuild3(False)

But after the code run through only a blank paper is on the screen, without my title block and the frame.

Why? Could you please tell me what is wrong in my code?

Tanks for help!
