I'm sure this is a very basic question (please excuse my ignorance, I am not a regular solidworks user), but I haven't been able to find any information on it (quite possibly searching the wrong terms).
Currently, I'm importing a list of 3D coordinates from a text file using a macro somebody had posted on another forum (below). What I would actually like to do is have spheres (all same diameter), with their centre at each coordinate point. I'm guessing I could do this either via altering the macro to place a sphere at each coordinate, rather than just a point, or by changing the points to spheres once imported?
If anybody could suggest an edit to the macro script or otherwise explain how to achive this, that would be great!
The macro script:
Dim swApp As Object
Sub main()
Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc
swApp.ActiveDoc.ActiveView.FrameState = 1
Dim skPoint As Object
Open "D:\Spiloxene\Modelling RCP\March 13\22 15^3 box\xyz.txt" For Input As #1
Part.SketchManager.Insert3DSketch True
Do While Not EOF(1)
Input #1, X, Y, Z
Set skPoint = Part.SketchManager.CreatePoint(X, Y, Z)
Loop
Close #1
Part.ShowNamedView2 "*Iscmetric", 7
Part.ViewZoomtofit2
End Sub
