Remove Common Name column from Familyu Table??

[DennisRehmer]

This was originally posted a while back, and I wanted to just re-post it to see if anyone has found a way to remove this column from the Family Table. I am working in WF4.0, so this is where I am looking for help on this.

In WF4.0 we are finding that the designated parameter Common_Name is showing up automatically in Family Tables.

Does anyone know if this can be removed from the Family Tables?

I do not believe it can be removed. It's worthess, and I've tried.

Dennis,

In WF4.0 (depends on which build) you can add a filter on the drawing to remove a single or many columns.

In the drawing mode pick Add, filter, by rule, (type in command) &fam.inst.param.name !=(dimension symbol)

don't type in ( ) or [ ] in the command line. then pick done.

Hi Dennis,

Are you looking to hide the column from the Family Table dialog box? If so, select the column and then click Edit > Hide Columns.

True, it can be hidden, just not deleted if I remember.
