BOM on drawind - VBScript

[fabiano]

Hello, there is a VBScript tab for configuring a BOM, but I'm not sure how to use it. Someone, could I help?

I wanted to concatenate some variables and texts.

%Name + “x” + %Length

to follow the example

So you wouldn't need to use the VB script to do that.  For that label in the editor you can simply type "%Name x %Length" without quotes and it should work.

Not working, I had already tried this,
I tried again now, it just goes out all white, if you try to concatenate nothing comes out.

I found this link that teaches for external lists.

But for internal BOM drawing does not work.

Bump this 2 year old thread.

I am trying to do a script in a BOM template to make an assy quantity say "ONE" if the qty = 1. If it doesn't = 1 then the field just displays the actual value.

I'm not sure 100% but I think the vbscripts are not working in the bom on drawing. I think this is a problem , because the bom on drawing is something like a block

Exactly what I have been looking for now, but this post was in 2017 and so far there has been no solution?
I am beginning to believe that the Autodesk improvement team has not endeavored to help improve ADS
