Create Sheet Metal Costing Analysis Example (C#)
This example shows how to create a sheet metal Costing analysis.
//-----------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Open:
// C:\Program Files\SolidWorks Corp\SolidWorks\samples\tutorial\costing\sheet_metal_part.sldprt
// 2. Verify that the Costing templates exist
by clicking Tools > Options >
//
System
Options > File Locations and select Costing
templates in
// Show folders for in
SolidWorks. Click Cancel to close the dialog.
// 3. Add a reference to SolidWorks.Interop.sldcostingapi.dll.
// 4. Open the Immediate window.
// 5. Run the macro.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. If prompted to save a temporary template with the costing data,
// click Yes, browse to the folder where to save the
temporary
//
template,
type the name of the temporary template in File name,
// and click Save.
// 2. Sheet metal Costing analysis is created,
which
// might take one or more minutes to complete.
// 3. Examine the Immediate window.
//
// NOTE: Because the part is used elsewhere, do not
// save any changes when closing it.
