Hide column in table?

[jclaus]

Hello all:

New to this community..

I have a question for all the pro-e gurus out there..

Is it possible to hide a part parameter column (MTL_SEQ) in an assembly table (BOM)?

I would like this column hidden on the drawing but viewable when you save the table as CSV file.

Thanks for your help!

I am not sure if this is possible. However, you might be able to generate 2 tables where you only show the 1 with the deleted column. the other can be off the field of the drawing and used for export. Maybe even put it on a hidden layer as long as people know to look for it for sustaining purposes.

I'm not sure if this is any help, I figured out that a lot of table commands are only available if you have "switch symbols" set to show the parameters. Other than that did you look at Repeat Region>Filter?

This is possible.

Once you have finished the table:

Select the columns that you want to hide.

Set the text height to 0.0001

and the column with on 0.0001

the system then sets them to zero and the column is hidden on the drawing, but it is in the csv export.

Interesting approach - I like the idea!
