Material Library Vendors

[roger.willson]

Are there any vendors out there who supply material libraries that I can
use directly in Pro/ENGINEER?



Thanks!

Hello Roger, I have done some investigation regarding that issue as well
and could not find anything.... It would be nice to have...

Roger,

I use MatWeb (

We are doing drawings for a client that have manual balloons that have the
first 6 characters of the part number on one line and the last 5
characters on a second line.

Is there a way to truncate a string parameter (&asm.member) to only show
the first 6 characters? or characaters 8-12?

I would like to see something like how you limit the number of decimal
places shown for a real number parameter--- &LENGTH[.2].

My hope is that it can be done with a parameter call in a custom symbol,
or in a repeat region relation.

We may also use Pro/Process for Assembly if it has functionality that might

Something like this in a repeat region.
if exists ("asm_mbr_material")
material1=extract(asm_mbr_material,1,3)

All
I have an existing 2x2 table with a repeat region relation
to calcuate the volume of a hose. The region is only the lower
left cell, the volume is shown in it. There is another value
that is manally updated in the lower right cell, out of the region.
This value is based on the volume so i would like to extend the region to
include the lower right cell to have that value update automatically.

I can modifiy the existing relation and show the both values
in the first cell. So I am confidant with the relations.

When I make a new the table to extend the region, the relations that
I cut from the modified table fail in the new table. They are the same
relations in the same drawing.

the relations are:
ID=asm_mbr_pipe_line_stock_od-2*ASM_MBR_PIPE_LINE_STOCK_WALL_THICKness
P_VOLUME=(ID/2*ID/2*3.14159*ASM_MBR_PIPE_LINE_LEN_CENTER)/1000
particle = P_volume / 100

the table parameter call is:
&rpt.rel.P_VOLume[.0]
&rpt.rel.particle[.2]

Is there a reason I can't just paste these into a new table/region relation?

Is there a way to extend the repeat region without removing it?

Is there a way to view pipe parameters?

Do I have to initialize the parameters to be used in the relation of the
table?

Jonathan and Steve hit it.
I added a column adjacent to the repaet region and the region extended to
the new column. Then added the one new relation that i needed and copied
and pasted the text from the old cells to the new. Editing the text to
call the new (relation) parameter. After delete the old cells i had just
what i was after.

Thanks loads

I know if you add a column to a table next to a repeat region, it will
stretch, but you'll still have to enter your value in there. Perhaps you
can copy the existing cell contents to the new cell? Worth a try.
