Question

BOM – Split SIZE column into L, W, H with rounding — how?

Hi everyone,
In our drawing BOM, the SIZE column shows values like 156.000x40.000x33.509 as a single string. I'd like to split this into three separate columns (L, W, H) showing only whole numbers, with standard rounding (anything above .5 rounds up).
Current output in the SIZE column:

156.000x40.000x33.509
800.000x600.000x70.000
156.000x156.000x34.925

Desired output across three columns:
L W H
156 40 34

800 600 70

156 156 35


A few things I'm unsure about:

Is there a way to do this directly in the Creo drawing repeat region table, using column format or symbolic parameters?
Can relations or parameters (e.g. user-defined SIZE_L, SIZE_W, SIZE_H) be used to parse and round the SIZE string, and then called in the BOM table?

Any advice on the best practice for this in Creo Parametric would be appreciated. Thanks!

What is the repeat region text for the column?  Table > Repeat Region > Switch Syms to show it.

Is the parameter SIZE made from 3 different parameters?

 

Can you provide a sample part?

Looks like it is a single parameter being reported.

These need to be separate parameters to compose that parameter or report separately in drawing tables.

You could possibly separate the L W H by scanning the SIZE parameter for the X between the values and create the three parameters you want for your table.
