Anyone experience with welding weight on drawing ?

We are welding heavy metal frames en the weldings weight easily exceeds 60 kg per frame. We like to sum this weight with our net component weight and display one weight at the drawing. There is a repeat table parameter (weldasm.totalmass) that holds the weldings weight but I do not like to show it in the bom list and rather like to make the sum of the net weight and the weldings weight. Does anyone have experience configuring this ?

Would Feature Parameters work for that?

Interesting and important topic.

As I know, weld features don't copy information about weld material name, density and etc into feature parameters.

Or I'm mistake?

@berny2U

if you want to show total mass of assembly with weld materials, then set config option - add_weld_mp

I want the weight of the weldings only, not the complete sum.

You a correct in your firs message: you can create table of one cell with repeat region with parameter weldasm.totalmass.

Then place this table were you want in the drawing.

Or you have specific case? Where you want to show welding weight?
