If that title wasn't confusing enough for you, here is the more detailed version.
I attached a picture of my part. I need this duplicated about 200 times unfortunately each part needs to be labeled A-1, A-2, A-3, B-1, B-2, B-3, and so on..
What is the most efficient way to go about this?
Thank you,
Hello,
I'll suggest using a design table with each configuration having unique value for the custom property that will be the indicated text.
You can also use Excel formulas (in columns outboard of the DT's region to compute the text based on an sequential index number.
I replied awhile back on something similar to this with an attached part & DT.
I will have to rummage the forum to see if I can find a link for you.
Cheers,
Kevin
EDIT: Go here:
Design Table and Location of a Dimension
I misinterpreted the original post's issue, so my blather didn't apply there, but I think it may help with your issue.
EDIT II: By "outboard", I mean a blank column in the DT on the right so you can do some Excel logic to get your text and then in the DT region, link the property's cell to the computed text cell of the same row.
