Reposition Drawing Views to Avoid Overlap Example (VBA)

This example shows how to reposition drawing views to avoid overlap.

'-------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Open install_dir\samples\introsw\bolt-assembly.slddrw.
' 2. Drag Drawing View3 so that it overlaps Drawing View2.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Repositions Drawing View2 and Drawing View2 so that they do
'    not overlap.
' 2. Examine the drawing and the Immediate window.
'
' NOTE: Because the drawing is used elsewhere, do not save changes.
