Hello,
Is it possible to display in a repeat region components which are "suppressed by program" in the assembly ?

 

Thanks

Hi,

why do you want to display suppressed components in assembly BOM ?

Hi Martin,

 

I work on parametric assemblies which can be composed of: Prt1 + (Prt2 or Prt3) + subasm1 + subasm2 + Prt4 + (subasm3 + subasm4)...

I want to display all the component which can be in the assembly.

ie: Prt1, Prt2, Prt3, subasm1, subasm2, Prt4, subasm3, subasm4

Hi,

unfortunately repeat region removes suppressed component from the displayed list.

Repeat region can recognized simplified representations as shown in Repeat_region_Reps.mp4 video available in https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Repeat-Regions-Representations/m-p/94819 discussion.

 

You can use  following procedure to get requested result ... unfortunately it is non-parametric.

  • open assembly
  • display suppressed in model tree
  • save model tree contents into treetool.txt
  • rename treetool.txt to treetool.csv
  • open treetool.csv in Notepad and modify its contents according your needs
  • open drawing
  • create table from file ... select treetool.csv
