Question

Determine if a drawing is based on a single model or assembly

Is there a way to set a parameter indicating that the drawing is based on a single model and not on an assembly ? We like to control the publishing of the dxf file, it does not make sense to make a dxf  for a 3d assembly drawing but does make sense for a simple drawing of a model. Also considering the disk space a dxf of an assembly drawing takes it is not interesting to do this.

Hi,

if you open a drawing and click File > Manage Session > Object List then you receive information about object In Session.

Yes, you can create a yes/no (boolean) parameter in the drawing that identifies if this is a part or assembly drawing.

The parameter value can be managed manually, or automatically using a drawing program.
