Hello,

I am trying to add a text to drawing sheet through CatiaV5 CD5 integration API. I am able to open the drawing from server however I do not get the DrawingText class even after adding DRAFTINGITF library. When I trz to add create instance of the class i get error type or namespace could not be found and missing reference error
if (cd5Engine.IsConnected())
            {
                cd5Id = cd5Engine.GetIDFromTNRV("CATDrawing", "Mydrawing", "---", "1");

                cd5Structure =cd5Engine.GetStructure(cd5Id);
                cd5Engine.get_RelatedDesigns();
               
                cd5Engine.Open(cd5Id);
               
                DrawingText drawingText;

Could anybody advise on this issue. Do I need any other library. The API documentation says to DrawingText to add text to drawing sheet but I am unable to get the reference.
Thanks in advance.

I am trying something like in the attachment, which was in a program I had done previously, but now even that seems not working with errors.

Hi

I'm not familiar with CAA or C++.
But on VB(A) add Drawingtexts is only possible in the Drawingtext-Collection.
So i guess you have to get the sheet, then the Drawingview in it and then the Drawingtext-Collection.
In VBA it looks like:

Code:

---

Set oDrawingDoc = CATIA.Documents.Open(sPath)
Set oSheet = oDrawingDoc.ActiveSheet 'or .Sheets.Item(1)
Set oView = oSheet.ActiveView 'or .Views.Item(1)
Set oDrawingTexts = oView.Texts
Set oText = oDrawingTexts.Add ("My Text", 0,0)

---

I guess it's similar in CAA.
If it works on your older program: what is different?

Regards,
Bernd

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I do not get the DrawingDocument reference. It shows error- type or namespace is missing.

I have added the library DRAFTINGITF but it supports DrawingView, DrawingSheet etc but not DrawingDocument, DrawingText!

I am trying to do the program in C#.net.
