Userform for Dimensioning Parts Catia V5

Question

I'm a new VBA user and, so far, I've only used it for Excel databases.

Now, I'd like to use it in CATIA V5. For starters, I'd like to make a parameterized part whose dimensions can be modified in a userform. Is this possible?

So far, I believe it would go something like this:

• Name relevant sketch components
• Set constraints and whatnot in the drawing
• At any time, run macro to open userform
• Obtain user input values (in mm) for component dimensions of named components
• Set dimensions to user input values
• Update part

Answer 1

Yes, is possible but if you are in Part Design workbench you should say features and not components. Components are used in Assembly Design workbench. I suggest you to start by using first a record of your "manually" actions in CATIA
