Set Component State Example (VBA)

This example shows how to set the state of the selected assembly components.

 

'-----------------------------------------------

'

' Preconditions:

'          (1) Assembly document is open.

'          (2) One or more components are selected.

'

' Postconditions: The state of the selected components is set to suppressed if

'          their states are resolved.

'

Option Explicit

Public Enum swComponentSuppressionState_e

    swComponentSuppressed = 0       '  Fully suppressed - no data is loaded

    swComponentLightweight = 1      '  Featherweight - only graphics data is loaded

    swComponentFullyResolved = 2    '  Fully resolved - model data is completely loaded

End Enum

    swConfigPropertySuppressFeatures = 0

    swThisConfiguration = 1

    swAllConfiguration = 2

    swSpecifyConfiguration = 3
