    Hello,

    How can I in a script select the bom of a drawing and move it say 30mm up?

    Thanks.

    Not sure if this would work but can you have a point on the drawing
    template that is dimensioned be your anchor point for the BOM and
    changing that dimension would move the BOM

    The problem is that the drawings already exists: with a script I'm going to
    replace in existing drawings the sheet templates by new ones. The new ones
    are a bit larger than the old ones. So I have to move the bom's, wich are
    attached to the upper side of the title blocks.

    Do your current drawing sheets use a BOM anchor. If so, you should be
    able to define the new anchor point in the new drawing sheet and the BOM
    would link to that anchor point.

    No, we didnot use it. Is it in a script possible to do that afterwards?
