Hi all,

I am trying to copy the contents of the background view and paste inside a new drawing.tried the following steps but couldn't get through.

Added the background view to the selection,copied the selection and tried to paste inside a new drawing.

I have given below the part of the code i am trying.

............

Dim DrawingView1 as DrawingView
Set DrawingView1 = DrawingViews.Item("Background View")

'I am adding the Background view of the already opened drawing to the selection

Dim MySelection as Selection
Set MySelection = CATIA.ActiveDocument.Selection

MySelection.Clear()
MySelection.Add(DrawingView1)
MySelection.Copy()

Dim documents1 As Documents
Set documents1 = CATIA.Documents

Dim newdrawingDocument As Document
Set newdrawingDocument = documents1.Add("Drawing")

newdrawingDocument.Standard = catISO

Dim drawingSheets1 As DrawingSheets
Set drawingSheets1 = newdrawingDocument.Sheets

Dim drawingSheet1 As DrawingSheet
Set drawingSheet1 = drawingSheets1.Item("Sheet.1")

drawingSheet1.PaperSize = catPaperA1

drawingSheet1.Orientation = catPaperLandscape

drawingSheet1.Scale = 1.000000

drawingSheet1.Activate

Dim DrawingViews1 As DrawingViews
Set DrawingViews1 = drawingSheet1.Views

Dim DrawingView1 as DrawingView
Set DrawingView1 = DrawingViews1.Item("Background View")
