Hi there! I wonder if anyone can help me here. I'm looking for a Solidworks macro that can save a part as IGES with Coordinate System in a specific folder.
By the way, i don't know if that's important but i'm using Solidworks 2014 SP 5.0
Thanks.
Best regards,

Hi! Thanks for the answer Deepak Gupta! I really appreciate your work in this community, it's a pleasure to talk to you. I'm looking for a macro that is capable of save a part as an IGES file in a folder on my desktop and also save the IGES file with the coordinate system defined on part.
The main objective is too save time so i do not have to be opening a part, save as, select format: iges file, in the folder "xxxxxx" and select coordinate system and the save it. I guess that's it.
Hope you can help me.
Best regards,

Does your each model has same name coordinate system?
Hi! Yes. Every models will have a coordinate system difined by me.
If those would be same then you can hard code the name in the codes (making it easier to write the macro). If the names are different and also there are more than one coordinate system, then yes it is bit of work to make the macro.
Hi! In principle the name will always be the same. Are you aware of any macro that fulfills a goal similar to the one i want? Thanks
Look out for the required codes from this post https://forum.solidworks.com/message/921574 and this one https://forum.solidworks.com/message/394805
What do you mean by this, will you please elaborate?
