CATCommandHeader header("HealGeometry"); pNIPAct -> AddCommand(header, "C:\MyScripts\HealRules.catvbs"); The older version struggled with multiple documents. The "New" version uses CATListOfCATDocument .
If you have recently migrated to a modern 3DEXPERIENCE platform or updated your V5 macros to leverage CAA V5 (Component Application Architecture), you have likely encountered this command. But what exactly is NIPActivity? Why is the "New" version critical? And how can it transform your design workflow?
CATNIPActivity *pNIPAct = new CATNIPActivity("MyBatchHealing"); pNIPAct -> SetMode(NIP_No_UI); // Crucial for "New" silent mode You must feed the NIPActivity a CATCommand GUID or a Knowledgeware Script Path . For example, to open a part and run a heal command: nipactivity catia new
In the evolving landscape of product design and lifecycle management, efficiency isn't just about speed—it's about intelligent automation . For years, CATIA V5 users have leveraged interactive scripting and automation to streamline repetitive tasks. However, a new term is gaining traction in advanced design rooms and PLM forums: NIPActivity CATIA New .
delete pNIPAct; The Problem: Every morning, engineers waste 45 minutes regenerating outdated drawings after PDM updates. But what exactly is NIPActivity
Because this is a "New" resource, always delete the pointer to free memory.
CATListOfCATDocument docList; docList.Append(pMyPartDocument); pNIPAct -> SetDocuments(docList); // Runs the activity on ALL listed docs. pNIPAct -> Run(); // Non-blocking if async flag is set. while(pNIPAct -> GetStatus() != NIP_Finished) CATSleep(100); // Update progress bar (if you have a silent UI) GetStatus() != NIP_Finished) CATSleep(100)
if (pNIPAct -> GetStatus() == NIP_Finished) cout << "Success. " << pNIPAct -> GetErrorCount() << " errors.";
