Macro to force rebuild SOLIDWORKS document

This VBA macro allows to perform operations usually required to upgrade the model to new version of SOLIDWORKS. It allows to:

• Force rebuild the model (ctrl+Q)

• Set model to isometric orientation

• Hide all view types

Configure the macro actions by setting the values of corresponding constants

Const DEFAULT_VIEWZOOMTOFIT As Boolean = True
Const DEFAULT_REBUILD As Boolean = True
Const DEFAULT_HIDE_ALL_TYPES As Boolean = True

This macro also supports macro arguments: -zoomtofit, -rebuild, -hidealltypes

Const DEFAULT_VIEWZOOMTOFIT As Boolean = True
Const DEFAULT_REBUILD As Boolean = True
Const DEFAULT_HIDE_ALL_TYPES As Boolean = True

Const ARG_VIEWZOOMTOFIT As String = "-zoomtofit"
Const ARG_REBUILD As String = "-rebuild"
Const ARG_HIDE_ALL_TYPES As String = "-hidealltypes"
