Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
Get the property value for each part using custom property manager and then you can add that value in the DXF file name.
What issues are you facing in achieving the desired results?

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
Thank for the respond, I am looking to modify the macro so that it populate that value in the dxf filename.
Unfortunately I have limited skill in macro programming.
Wondering if someone could point me on what line I need to add inside the macro.

Upload the macro you're using which you want to modify.

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
Try this updated macro. The macro would pull the value of custom property named AutoQty and add to export DXF file name. You must run the AutoQty macro first.

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
I do not want to abuse your generosity but it does not seem to add the quantity into the dxf filename.
I notice that this line didn't change, wondering if it should include autoqty?
exFileName = FilePath & "\" & sMatName & "\" & Thickness & "\" & FileName

Here are the lines where it pulls and adds the value.
I think the qty macro add value to configuration properties, so replace this line
Set swCustPropMgr = swOpenModel.Extension.CustomPropertyManager("")
with
Set swCustPropMgr = swOpenModel.Extension.CustomPropertyManager(swCurrent)

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
That did the trick.
Thank you very much Deepak for you generosity of time and sharing your knowledge!

Thickness must be mm
In order to get thickness in mm, change this inches conversion factor to mm conversion factor i.e. replace 39.3700787401575 by 1000
And to get mm in the folder name, replace this line
swThkDir = FilePath & "\" & sMatName & "\" & Thickness
with
swThkDir = FilePath & "\" & sMatName & "\" & Thickness & " mm"
And no idea why your DXF is empty. So attach your files to check them.

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
Have you tried manually exporting the DXF? Does this works?
Also what happens when you do zoom to fit in ACAD?

I did not run the AutoQty macro but used the export dxf macro you've posted with slight changes (had to add mm in this line as well) and macro worked as expected with no empty files. Check attached video.
exFileName = FilePath & "\" & sMatName & "\" & Thickness & " mm" & "\" & FileName
So I believe issue is with your default drawing template. Make sure that is properly set and scale in that is 1:1.

Re: Assembly sheet metal part to dxf
As suspected, the drawing template was the issue. Fixed that via team viewer and all is good no.
