How to override cell in repeat region

[SD_14219997]

I am using creo parametric 10.0.2.0

I have a schedule in my drawing that is using a 2-D repeat region to call out my family table and insert a table with the following:

                           |  fam.inst.param.name  |                           |                            |                            |

fam.inst.name |  fam.inst.param.value   |                           |                            |                            |

                           |                                           |                           |                            |                            |

         |  A     |  B       |  C      |  D      |  PART_NO  |  REMARKS  |

  -1   |  0.5   |  0.5   |  0.5   |   0.5  |  150QS01       |  NONE         |

  -2  |   0.2  |   0.2  |   0.2  |   0.2  |  150QS02       |  NONE         |

I hope that is good enough for anyone to understand what I am doing as I cannot share my actual data.

I want to override one of the fam.inst.param.name cells.

ex: the "PART_NO" cell, I want it to say something like "PART #"

I had seen that using the relations is the way to go but I tried writing something like this:

IF fam_inst_param_name == "PART_NO"
repeat_override = "PART #"
ELSE
repeat_override = fam_inst_param_name
ENDif

I then changed the fam.inst.param.name cell to rpt.rel.repeat_override using the User Defined option but it does not work.

Any help is appreciated as this would unlock a ton of possibilities for my team.

The header cells cannot be changed by relations.

If you are trying to replace the 150QS01 or 150QS02 with PART #, then you need those values in your IF statement.

As it is formatted now, you are looking for a string 'PART_NO' and not a variable name.

I see.

But now shouldn't it find the string 'PART_NO' in the headers row and change that? Seems like a dumb way to program it, but what do I know lol.

Can I set the repeat region to NOT include the headers? I don't mind typing in each column headers. I tried doing this as well but I don't think I was setting the region correctly and the existing documentation on how to use repeat regions is honestly atrocious.

Why not just rename the parameter in the model?

I tried but 'PART #' is not a valid name apparently, unless it is and im actually just dumb

Hi,

you can use following non-parametric "solution".

• move table containing 2-D repeat region outside of drawing frame
• export table containing 2-D repeat region to csv file
• import csv file into drawing to get dumb table
• modify table contents according your needs
