iPart: same part, different materials

tadej.grahek — Thu, 02 Oct 2025 13:38:19 GMT

Hello,

I have created an iPart for different sizes of DN diameters (DN10, DN15, DN20,...). Every DN size has multiple choises of materials. So my table got a little big because I need every DN multiple times.

How would I make this a little bit smaller? I can make "material" column "custom parameter cell" but then I have a problem in parts list on drawing:

Problem is when I place to assembly two iParts with the same DN size but with different materials:

Example which works:

2x - DN10 1.4404

Example which does not work (multiple materials in parts list):

1x - DN10 1.4404

1x - DN10 1.4435

Is there a solution to this? Or do I really need this big table with all materials in it?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2nd question:

Is it possible to hide columns when placing iPart into assembly?

I just figure out what "keys" do and it make my life easier:

If you have any other tips and tricks I am open for suggestions.
