Display the units used in part and mass in a repeat region.

[ER_10382549]

Hello, everyone.

For Creo 8, I am setting a repeat region to generate a BOM for my top level assemblies.

Some of my concerns are:

1. We have parts/sub-assemblies created in mm and in. We need to know the units used for length for each: parts and assemblies.
2. For the parts that have already a mass value calculated, we need to know the mass units: kg or lbs.

I have tried what is shown in this post but it didn't work. I have already done:

1. Activated "units sensitive" option in relations manager.
2. Created a totally new parameter that is related mass=pro_mp_mass to be units sensitive.
3. Called for unit according to the post (link above), using &asm.mbr... and &mbr...; same result: nothing works.

Any help will be very appreciated.

Regards.

Can you zip the drawing and assembly and upload it?

If not the actual assembly, a sample of what you have to work with.
