Create a Flattened Route Example (C#)

This example shows how to create an annotation type flattened route and its drawing.

 
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Add SolidWorks Routing as an add-in

//   (in SolidWorks select Tools > Add-Ins > SolidWorks Routing).
// 2. Add Solidworks.interop.SwRoutingLib.dll as a reference

//   (in the IDE right-click the project,

//    select Add Reference, and browse <SldWorks_install_dir>\api\redist).

// 3. In Tools > Options > System Options > Routing > Routing File Locations,

//    add locations of your SolidWorks Routing files.
// 4. Open <SolidWorks_install_dir>\samples\tutorial\api\5connector.sldasm.
// 5. Ensure that the specified templates exist.
// 6. Rename the namespace to match the name of your C# project.
//
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. FeatureManager design tree shows AnnotateFlattenedRoute1 and hides Route1.
// 2. Sheet1 of 5connector.SLDDRW has the a2 - landscape format and contains:
//    * a drawing view
//    * 5 electrical connector tables
//    * a circuit-summary table
//    * an electrical BOM table.
//
// Note:  Because this assembly is used in a SolidWorks tutorial,

// do not save any changes to it.
