Behavior .NewSheet3 in Solidworks 2015 Sp3

Hi everybody,

 

I'm using .newsheet3 to add sheets to a drawing.

Everything worked fine in Solidworks untill Solidworks 2014.

In Solidworks 2015 Sp3 the sheet will be added but it is empty, no titleblock is shown.

 

Here is a sample code for adding the sheet:

Dim swApp As Object

Dim Part As Object

Dim boolstatus As Boolean

Dim longstatus As Long, longwarnings As Long

Sub main()

Set swApp = Application.SldWorks

Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc

Part.ClearSelection2 True

boolstatus = Part.NewSheet3("Test", 12, 12, 1, 5, True, "C:\ProgramData\SolidWorks\SOLIDWORKS 2015\lang\german\sheetformat\a3 - din.slddrt", 0.42, 0.297, "Standard")

Part.ActivateSheet ("Test")

End Sub

 

Can someone check this if it is a bug?!

Thanks.

 

Regards, Carsten

Correct Answer

Hi evreybody,

 

Finally we found the reason for the Problem.

It was a Registry Key:

"Show Sheet Format Dialog For New Sheet"=dword:00000000

In Version before 2015 we had this setting set to 00000001, in SWX 2015 it has to be 00000000 other the sheet will be blank.
