Draft Quality Views macro

    Anybody out there have a macro to use in the task scheduler for
    converting high quality views to draft quality?

    For me this is a high performance issue especially for large assembly
    drawings.

    If you use high quality views it will still load up the assembly
    models when opening. Draft quality lokks just as good to me and opens
    the drawings lightweight!

    Thanks for this,

    One of the free macros at http://swtools.cad.de/macros.htm converts
    all views of the active drawing to high quality (it's the one
    called mm_26.zip ).
    You only have to change the lines with "SetDisplayMode2" or
    "SetDisplayMode3" to convert them to draft quality and add a
    line to save the active drawing.

    Not exactly what you are looking for, but a good start :)

    HTH,
    Stefan
