I am working on a family table for a part family.
The part family has various sizes but all are in 3 main bodies, so I created some parameters and relations to drive the positions of the bolt holes depending on which of the 3 main bodies it uses.
BUT I was wondering if I could add a relation inside of the IF statement that would allow me to suppress feature(s).
R and P are my 2 controlling parameters, R selects one of the three main hole patterns, and P selects one of the number of holes within the three main patterns.
Here is the relations I am using:
/* RELATIONS TO DETERMINE HOLE COUNT IN R
IF R ==4
p138 = P/4
p154 = P/4-1
p170 = p138
d158 = ((p170-1)*d168)/2
p186 = P/4+1
d174 = ((p186-1)*d184)/2
ENDIF
IF R==3
p138 = P/3 -1
p154 = P/3
p186 = P/3+1
ENDIF
IF R ==2
p138 = (P-1)/2
ENDIF
/* RELATION TO DETERMINE 1ST HOLE IN PATTERS
d127 = ((p138-1)*d136)/2
d142 = ((p154-1)*d152)/2
Instead of having the 4 and 3 hole patterns be suppressed from the family table, I would rather embed it within the IF statements if possible.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
