How to suppress part with rule in DriveWorksXpress

Wojciech Osiński Nov 23, 2017 1:27 PM

How to suppress part (in Xpress) when I want to associate it with rule like below:

=IF( Width >2000 ,"Unsuppress" ,IF( Height >3450 , "Unsuppress" ,"suppress" ) )

Width and Height is entered by user but statement of the part should suppress and unsuppress according to this rule without adding check box. Is it possible? When I just add this rule to name builder it won't work.

Use the AND to combine the condition like this
=IF( AND (Width >2000, Height >3450) ,"U" ,"S")
U is same as unsuppress and S is same as suppress.

BTW your formula is also correct. Make sure you're putting the formula in the file name

  I think OR is correct it this case instead of AND.

    Yes you can use OR also as needed. I only proposed AND assuming that you want both conditions to be fulfilled.

  And there is another problem which is strange. I have result "S" in builder but when I create new model (still on default settings) it is unsppressed... How it is possible?

    Could you share the files to check. If you can not share the actual files, then make a dummy model/project and share that.
