I am new to this forum and I am looking forward to learn from you experts.
Also I am new to VB.NET and cannot solve these two problems on my own.
Question 1: I have wrote some codes to convert the unit from meter into millimeter. But I dont know how to use these codes in VB.NET AddIn. Here is my code:
Private Function convertMeterToMillimeter(Meter As Double)
convertMeterToMillimeter = Meter / 1000
End Function
I want to insert the above code into the standard VB.NET AddIn codes, so that I can use this Function for all the other Subs in one project.
For example: In the standard VB.NET AddIn file there is a line like this: (In the Sub CreateCube)
model.SketchRectangle(0, 0, 0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, False)
I want to rewrite the above line into something like this...:
model.SketchRectangle(convertMeterToMillimeter(0),
convertMeterToMillimeter(0),
convertMeterToMillimeter(0),
convertMeterToMillimeter(100),
convertMeterToMillimeter(100),
convertMeterToMillimeter(100), False)
Could anybody please tell me, where exactly should I put the Function convertMeterToMillimeter, how to make the declarations... etc.
Question 2: Besides, if there are small values, it seems SolidWorks cannot do correctly.
For example: If I change 100mm into 1mm in the standard VB.NET AddIn file:
From: model.SketchRectangle(0, 0, 0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, False)
Change to: model.SketchRectangle(0, 0, 0, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, False)
SolidWorks will not do the job.
How to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help!
