Hi All,
Is there a way that the Plate item (shown below item 1 and 2) is described with thickness only? For example, I only want Plate, 10mm to be in the evaluated value. I know I can modify/delete the value, but I want to have this automatically so that I do not have to edit the description of each body everytime.
Also, how can I have the PLATE in small caps?
Thanks,
LS
Yes it is possible.
Go to Document Properties/Weldments and under Bounding Box Properties you can set up and rename the way you want it to be. Then just use Create Bounding Box in part file and Description will populate.
Hey Andrej, is this from SW 2019?
I'm running 2017 currently and my version doesn't have all those options below the "Weldment Options" section.
Yes, this is from SW 2019. 2017 doesn't have this option. If my memory serves me corect, this was introduced in 2018, but i'm not 100% sure.
Thanks Andrej and Glenn. :-)
OK, thanks Andrej.
You'll need to open the .sldlfp files used to create the Structural Member bodies and make your changes there (re-type "plate" however you want it and delete the unwanted linked text). This will only affect new Parts using the profile since Parts don't maintain a link to the .sldlfp files, but just copy the sketch into the feature.
