API Call for Explode Status?

Hi all,

I am trying to write a tiny macro to toggle the explode state of the
current configuration in my assemblies. I don't like having to go
thru config tab of the feature manager every time.

not seem to be a way to determine if the current config is already
exploded or not. I am using AssemblyDoc::ShowExploded to set the
state either True or False, but to create a toggle I need to know the
current state. Does anyone know if there is such a flag that can
be read via a macro?

Much appreciated.

Dave

 

retval = ModelDoc2.IsExploded ()

Thanks, That worked great! If anyone is interested, here is the code
I ended with.

'
******************************************************************************
' Toggle Explode of Current Configuration
'
******************************************************************************
Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
Dim Model As SldWorks.AssemblyDoc
Dim CurrentSetting As Boolean


Sub main()

Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Model = swApp.ActiveDoc

If Model.IsExploded() Then
CurrentSetting = Model.ShowExploded(False) ' Un-Explode it
Else
CurrentSetting = Model.ShowExploded(True) 'Explode it
End If

End Sub
