Hello,
I am dealing with a large project and need to attach the same reference to every sheet and clip it to a boundary in every sheet. I am trying to use the "reference attach" command but am not sure what to put for my reference since the file location is on projectwise and not on my local drive. Once that file is attached is it possible to then have it be clipped? The clip level is found in our border file and would be the same level and shape for every sheet.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Update: I was able to get the correct file to attach using my C drive to attach the file that is on PW. But still struggling to then clip that reference
In order to "find" an element to use for a reference clip, I believe you would need to use VBA or some other programmatic approach. I don't think you can "pre-select" a reference clipping element. If that were so, you might be able to use the Select By Attributes keyins to select your clip shape. VBA has other means of locating and interacting with elements that you can't do with the basic keyin commands.
Is this clip location at the same coordinates in every drawing, or does the border move around?
