Hello,

I need help to have the area of all instances in familly tables.

What is your method?

I have a parameter called SURFACE

And a relation : SURFACE=MP_SURF_AREA

but in the familly table, after adding the parameter SURFACE, and verifying all instances,

the aera is the same of the generic part.

My instance have different dimensions so I need each area for each instances.

Anyone have a solution?

Thanks

Laurent

Hello,

put your relation for AREA calculating in POST REGENERATION relations. (see attached picture). In my opinion it means that ProE will do following:

- regenerate model (change of size)

- calculate relations

Thank you,

it works fine,

In my family table, is it possible to put a "-" instead of the area for some instance?

we need the area only for gold plated instance.
