Question

Pro/PIPING and BOM-table repeat regions

Hello everyone, First of all, I couldn't find a seperate Pro/PIPING-section in the forum on this site, so I thought I'd just post this question here. If there is a seperate Pro/piping-section, please direct me there so that I may ask my question in the proper place. My question is related to Pro/PIPING (obvious by now) and the use of a BOM-table in a drawing. I can't seem to get a 'standard' paramater to go in a BOM-table repeat region alongside a 'piping' paramater in the same BOM-table repeat region. For example: If I put &asm.mbr.OD (for say, an elbow-part) next to &asm.mbr.pipe.segment.stock.OD (for pipe-segments) in the same repeat region, one of them doesn't show. I've already tried several things using relations (among other things), but I still can't get it to work. I was hoping you guys (gals maybe?) could help me come up with a solution (one that preferably does not involve ISOGEN-drawings) Thanks in advance, Maurice

Hello again everyone, I've been tinkering around with my problem a bit more and I discovered that the reason why the 'piping' parameters didn't show up was because (somehow) they are attached to an 'assembly' which contains the pipe extend and the line stock information (and I was filtering out assemblies for some reason 0.o). It turns out each section of pipe consists of one of these 'assemblies' and a corresponding part (which contains the pipe solid). Which leads me to my next problem: there aren't any parameters (none whatsoever) in the pipe-parts (which I want in the BOM-table and not the 'assemblies' because they don't have the right name) for me to call forth in a repeat region. So I guess my real question to you guys is: is there any way to attach line stock information (parameters) to the pipe solid parts so it shows up correctly in the BOM-table? Once again, thanks in advance, Maurice

Hello Maurice , I donot have the answer for your question as iam ametuer . But i think you are working for quite a long time . I have a question how can we hide the axis of pipe connections in model as well in drawing. Thanks in advance, kathir.
