Re: Material Issue
Matt Peneguy Oct 18, 2018 4:06 PM (in response to Kostas Stergiopoulos)Is this in a BOM? The way I've done something like this in the past is to add a Custom Property to my parts called BOM Material. Then, I'd use an * in that field if I didn't want anything to show in the BOM. If not I'd set it to "SW-Material". Then I'd use a BOM equation and an IF(`Bom Material` = "*"; " ", `BOM Material`).
So if there's an asterisk it leaves it blank, otherwise it would grab what's in the Property. Sometimes we have a specification along with the material and that info can be added to the property in the part.

Matt Peneguy Oct 18, 2018 4:56 PM (in response to Kostas Stergiopoulos)No, equations don't work in Custom Properties, unfortunately. I think you can drive them from a Design Table, though. And Excel has a lot of functionality. Would that work?

Deepak Gupta Oct 21, 2018 5:53 AM (in response to Kostas Stergiopoulos)You can use a macro, design table or set condition in property tab builder to suit needs.

Re: Material Issue
Deepak Gupta Oct 21, 2018 9:41 AM (in response to Kostas Stergiopoulos)In property manager, you can link the values to an external excel file. And in the excel file you can set the desired range. For e.g. the parent (or your conditions) as as A, B, C and D. And in the excel you have set another range to display the material. So may be based on the selection, the material list may be populated.
Sorry for the confusion.
