[VBA] [CE] “printorganizer add model” is really slow in opposite to V8

Hello everyone.

Scenario:

I have to plot 200 ~ 300 Models from Cel-Libraries into one PDF. Printorganizer does this job. I have a validated list in the form “File-name Model-name”

The workflow:

  1. Create pSet file
  2. Start plotting with pSet file.

Source Snipset:

For i = 0 To nAnzahl
   CadInputQueue.SendKeyin "printorganizer add model " + asLines(i)
Next i

The problem:

It is a timing problem. In V8 the creation of the pSet file takes some moments, and then the plottings started. In CE the creation of the pSet file takes nearly as long as the plotting itself. And we are here talking about hours! (Environment contains VPN, etc. this is multiplying the problem).

My Guess:

I found out, the plotorganizer opens each file and checks the existents of file and model after every keyin.

My Question:

Is there any possibility to create the pSet file faster?

Thanks a lot!

  • Hi ,

    I do not expect this has something to do with VBA, because plotting is something that is done with "Key-In" - sequences.

    The runtime on my computer could be measured in minutes, not hours. So we are looking for some "configuration" differences. We have already excluded the usual suspects, such as virus scanners and the like, or taken them into account in the measured times.

    I will take a closer look to   Suggestion
