Hello,   It will be helpful if we can select only the lists we need on a project and batch plot them to the BOM folder.   Usually we do not plot all external lists, if it is possible the lists we use to be listed in a 'favorites' list and to be selectable and to be able to be printed at once similar to dwg files from the DM.  Pages to be combined in a pdf file for each list.   Regards,   Ilko Dimitrov       Show More

It would be nice if bolts had a line or some sort of indicator that gave a visual representation of where threads stopped on each bolt/bolted connection.   Designing to the X condition... A325X = Bearing-type connection with threads excluded from the shear plane.   Currently we still have to stop, check diameter, reference a table/memory, and place a measurement to confirm each connection meets the engineering.   It would also be nice if this was built into the macro, and a contextual drop down allowed us to choose between the connection types.     FYI: A325 Connection Types SC N X Slip critical connection. Bearing type connection with threads included in the shear plane. Bearing-type connection with threads excluded from the shear plane. Show More

so i would like to be able to rotate variable grating's run direction   as in going from  grating 2 to grating 3 (see pic below) now  it is very esey to change 2 to 3 u can clik on grating select grip point of rotate thing in midel and then select the mid point of the other side of the grating but  in reality grating offen got lots of notchest  ,  and so the mid point no longer works , and for sum reson even if u have  un-notched corners  u would think u could use "midpoint between 2 points" to snap to midpoint of grating but no this dont work, repeted it 3 time's never work dont know y   so u need to put in a construction line and move it to the rite  place then use it to snap to , witch depending on how u count its 16to19 steps  16 steps to rotate a bit to grating    l enter click center click to side esc click line m enter click any where move mouse up  12.5  (could be considered 4 comands) enter select grating select rotate thing grip point clik end of line  esc    now lets see if we can do thins in 4 steps  double click grating click positioning click rotate 90 (see pic)  esc or click X   Show More

Dear development team,   Please include slotted holes as an option for manual labels.   Regards,   Ilko Dimitrov     Show More

See if you agree... I believe the AS definition below needs to be revised. Loose Parts should be called Standalone Assemblies in the Advance Steel definition below.   Mark loose parts Standalone Assemblies This tool searches the entire model for loose parts Standalone Assemblies (i.e. parts Assemblies that leave the workshop without any attached connection to other parts, but may have holes).

Hello,   Per attached screen shot, it will be very helpful if we can make a break in extension lines.   Regards,   Ilko Dimitrov Show More

Hello, Autodesk,   we need a possibility to change the preset name of the parts list extract. Though one can enter an individual name with the production of the extract, but some users need instead of from Ext_2016_08_18_16-23-52 e.g. Modelname_2016_08_18_16-23-52.   Regards Elias Show More

Ich würde ein Menü begrüßen über welches ich Sonderteile als fertige Advance-Steel-Objekte einfügen kann. Derzeit ist dies nur mit dem Befehl "_astm4commspecialpartblock" möglich, wobei jedes Mal Material und Eigenschaften neu ausgewählt, bzw. eingeben werden müssen. Diese Teile würd ich daher gerne in einer DWG als fertige Sonderteile abspeichern und ähnliche wie beim Designcenter als "fertige" Teile einfügen. Somit könnte eine firmeninterne Bibliothek aufgebaut werden.   Show More

When using queries to show certain model objects, it is frustrating that other items not available in the Search & Mark Objects tool are hidden. e.g. grids, level symbols, nodes etc   Please can we have some way to keep these visible.  Probably by including these object types in the Search & Mark Objects tool.  Although you generally would not need to search for them, they need to be an option so they can be ticked (or not) for a saved Query.

A macro similar to stairs, but instead of treads you have a solid floor (Grating, Corrugated, folded plates along the channel).  Working on a project now that requires several ramps and it is a real pain to model all by hand. Show More

  Hi everyone,   After adding manual dimensions to a bottom view on a drawing, I cannot get the dimension to switch sides after choosing the "Linear, Ablsolute" presentation from the "Dimension chain" panel.   The tool seems to work on front and top views, however on bottom views, the dimensions are placed close to the object and you have to manually move each dimension into place.   Is it possible to have the same workflow as top and front views.   Sorry I forgot to mention that Advance Steel 2018 was being used.   Best regards, Janet Graitec Canada Show More
