Ancillary Export

Ancillary exports do not work correctly for round tee's and crosses.

For example, I enter in a reducing cross. The round flange sizes are 36x24x18x16 and the resulting export calls for one 24" flange and three 16" flanges.

Hi dcapestany

I would need to see the Job and Export file to see what it is doing. If you go to Help - Send support Files, select the Job and Database files, this will create a zip file that you can Private Message me.

The Export file does not get picked up in this process so you will need to go into the MIS/CAMduct folder that you saved it in, normally :
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Fabrication 2015\Imperial Content\V3.01\MIS\CAMduct, obviously change the Version or Content folder so suit, the file will have a file extension of AEX, if you could also PM that file I will have a look for you.

I received the files thank you.

There is a problem here but it looks like I may have to pass it on to the Development Team as I cannot see why it is not outputing the correct information, I get similar results on a normal Ancillary Report.

I'll let them have a look and let you know the results.
