Hello All,

I am new and excited to learn about SolidWorks API and creating Macros.  I am currently working with a sheet metal part with bends and many configurations. The macro starts in .SLDPRT and a .SLDDRW template will appear. The part will be pulled from model view and flat pattern view is created along with a SM-Flat-Pattern for every configuration in part. After a few records and research in the forums, this is where I currently am. The DWG Template appears, but the part does not appear in the .SLDDRW.  Your help is much appericated.
