Batch Macro Generation Form

In the Draft Auto Drawing Production application, select Create > Hanger & Support Drawings.

The H&S Batch Macro Generation form is displayed:

The current defaults file is shown in the Defaults area near the top of the form; the settings defined in this file are loaded automatically when you enter Draft.

You can change the default settings by selecting the options on the Default_Settings menu at the top of the form.

The Batch Dir/Macro text boxes show the default file in which the drawing parameters will be stored if you save a macro without giving it a name.

The Message Dir/File text boxes show the file which will be used as the message file during batch macro execution. When processing has been completed, this file will contain a progress report of each drawing production cycle, together with any error messages output.

The Log Dir/File text boxes show the file which will be used as the log file during batch macro execution. This file is a standard PDMS alpha log file which records the output response to each macro command line.
