Hello,

I would like to fill MATERIAL in my cut list, starting from tab builder (I have a xls file with materials in one tab). The link with the excel file storing the material seem to be broken so no way to make selections. When I type, in the material field the material this is not retained in my cut list and not either in cut list summary, also. Whats is wrong not doing well?

After this I tried to start from cut list summary entering the material, but doesn't retain the material as well.

For description field in tb, I don't need to put nothing because is good for me to replace with cut list name. (have to eliminate DESCRIPTION from tb)

my tab builder is saved as a weldment, see this

this is my cut list, very simple but missing the materials and getting rid off by default description containing PLATE .....

Please what do I have to do? Do I have to create a new library with materials ?. Really I would like to continue using my excel file with all of theses materials because is easier.

thanks in advance

Dan, have a nice summer but waiting for you

I believe the Property Tab Builder only applies to File> Properties & Config Specific properties.

I don't believe you can apply to bodies.

M. Keneth welcome,

Here is my print screen showing <Show on custom tab> selected, if this is in your point. Image beside show my configuration. If is anything else and I don't see please come back.

What else could happen ?. Waiting for an answer (thanks you are here), I create new material library and apparencies About you, what is the best ? working with an xls files, tab builder OR just using the default cut list proprieties, talking about the 3 tabs as shown in first image above. (and from here get your cut list with material etc..)

When I try to add the MATERIAL I click on ligne 1 in red (on the blue file) , designing the part I hope is well if not the custom propriety doesn't appear. Another think is I was not able the keep the same name 210 01 WALL BASE

then 210 01 WALL BASE1 was created (with 1 at the end). Next time may be I have the complete at the last the blue file feature instead taking care of the features in yellow wich is 2 in red. (both indicates the same part, just to mix me up)

Finally I don't see why the link look like broken and the data doesn't populate the custom propriety pan to see my material coming from xls file.

Thanks to complete again

Property Tab works with File> Properties

You're referencing a Cut-List (multi-body)

Thanks,

Is supposed to work, I attached the tab builder with extension wldprp after selecting Weldment and saved as below

All is in system option \ file location \ show folder for: custom propriety file wich is my wldprp file.

Then if the option Weldment exist, I think will apply for multi body which is weldment.

By the way tab builder applies to a part / assembly / drawing and weldment in our case. Having this last association, I would to connect from xls file as origin via tab builder and to cut list (belonging to a drawing).

Thank again, but I'm not clarified why don't populate and doesn't link
