hi all,
right start with weldment. 3 different profiles. some with holessome without. normal stuff.
in feature tree cut list folder. do update. note each matchingpieces grouped. each with a item number ie "cut-list-item2" etc.
1. is that number locked to those pieces for ever?
2. can i get that number out and put it in a table?
now making a drawing of the said weldment. make cut list. itemnumbers are not the same as in part. random order. sort materialcolumn so like with like to make sawer life easier. item numberrandom again. balloons update.
i have given my weldment part a partNumber in custom props. i nowwant to create a part number for the items in the weldment. in acolumn of the cutlist.
1. create column equation to show "partNumber-itemNumber"?
2. way to lock all that down so if weldment edited pieces alwaykeep same number for ever?
then cut list would be saved as template and would be a niceautomation.
any experts about?
