Sergelachance,

The parameters in the rule are hard coded and will NOT change when the part name changes. You would have to manually change the parameter name in the rule or come up with a different method of tracking the name.

If this assembly will be used often, my suggestion is as follows:

Create a custom iProperty that holds a given name

In your rule, search and suppress parts by this iProperty value instead of the occurence name

It would take a bit of effort and time to set this up, which is why I'd only recommend it if this assembly will be used a few times. Otherwise you'll have to manually update the rule.

Let me know if it helps.. Kudos if it works!!!

Again Mitch

Thank you very much for your reply

I try that!

[#4]

A little question?

It's possible to put a **** before and after the name to select my part???

If is not possible when to suppress or unsuppress a part without her name?

Thanks!

Spoiler

Sergelachance,

If you put a *** directly before the parts name:

The attached code looks through each component and reads its name, if the name has 3 *** directly at the beginning it will supress or unsuppress based on the chosen option.

The attached picture shows an example name.

it's my horrible english

my idea is all part begining by * and finish by*

BEFORE part name = TABB

RENAME PART = L3BR000_TABB24

MY IDEA

Component.IsActive("*TABB*:1")=False

DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHY I TRY TO TEL YOU?

[#7]

So BOTH the Original and Renamed part will have a star before and after the number?

BEFORE part name = *TABB*

RENAME PART = *L3BR000_TABB24*

[#8]

no, * is for find all begining or finish

it's possible?

[#9]

I'm sorry sergelachance but I don't understand your idea unfortunately.

In order for the rule to continue from copy to copy, something has to STAY THE SAME. There has to be a consistant iProperty, or portion of the name that will allow you to identify the parts you wish to suppress.

You must come up with this item that will stay the same throughout your parts with wach copy
