Question

Changing Column Model/Rep in Repeat Region wipes comment columns

Afternoon all!

 

The subject pretty much says it all..  I have a table that I've saved as a template - all but two columns have repeat region symbols in them, and the last two are set as comment columns.  When I change the Column Model/Rep of my rpt.qty columns, it erases the comment columns.  Is this expected behavior?  I've learned to do the column model change first, and then re designate the comment columns.. but that's extra steps I'd like to avoid. 

 

In my most recent case - I had the entire table, including my two comment columns all filled out and had to make a change to the Column Model/Rep, and it erased everything I had in the comment columns...  Quite frustrating.

 

Any thoughts are appreciated!

Here he is in the community "Creo Elements Direct > Drafting" which is not Creo Parametric. He may not have an answer if he does not change the community of his post.

Hello @lockarde 

 

Just for info, to conclude and help a bit further in the direction you're probably looking for, the syntax for the Repeat Region Relations will probably have to be configured similarly of what I paste below:

IF asm_mbr_ptc_material_PTC_MATERIAL_NAME != "C"
TS_MATERIAL=asm_mbr_ptc_material_PTC_MATERIAL_NAME
ELSE
TS_MATERIAL="MAT C"
ENDIF

 

Look at attached movie for a better understanding.

 

Regards,
