I'm in need of some assistance. I have two problems that I need help with.
1. I need to make a label that shows plate dimensions. PL70 is not enough, I still need the width x hight. is that even possible?
2. I have several items that are identical in design and in our material takeoff they need to be with same partnumbers.
We use Posno attribute for partnumbering. So for example I have material number 22 occurring 40 times in my design.
I'm trying to do a material takeofflist out of Glabs that would be smart enough to add up identical posno attributes.
So I can do a list that shows 40 rows of item number 22 but I would like to do a list that only has
one row of item no 22 and a column that says 40pcs.
I hope you can figure out what I mean.
All help I can get is much appreciated!
And how do you collect contents for the table? In this collecting phase you could add a small pml-function that collects all items with same posno and then returns the number of them. I'm not that good with pml myself but I'm sure someone can help you with this. Sounds possible to do at least :)
Sorry what do you mean by collecting content? It's just a material table next to the drawing I'm making so this is the end result of the table.
The information doesn't go anywhere further than this table if that's what you mean.
It's neither of them.
I create glab copy previous and then give it the btext values I want and I do this in excel.
then I assign these glabs to a certain item ref (ddname) that I have previously listed in Design.
So it's just a simple create glab command, I just execute and multiply all this in excel before copy paste these commands
to Draft. So basically I create a command in excel and then it's just copy paste.
