Need to have the Cut Pieces checked in order for the Cut Piece Table to appear on the Isometric

@Anonymous,

 

You should find it in the Projects Iso Style folder that you used to create the isometric.

ex.  C:\Users\dadspackard\Documents\MMETRIC_TEST\Isometric\Final_A2\PCFs

@Anonymous,

 

Thanks for posting the PCF file.

 

Using a MMETRIC project that I have setup for testing I used the Final_A2 Iso type (OOTB) and was able to generate isometrics from the PCF you attached.

 

Could you send me the whole ISO Style folder so I can test it here?

@Anonymous,

 

Latest version as in 2021?

 

For it being trail version not sure what features can be used. That be something that Autodesk will need to answer

 

Ok I tested the Isometric styles A2 AND A3 that you posted in versions 2019 and 2020 and was able to produce the isometrics and the cut list was populated.

 

The difference between Final_A2 and Final_A3 is the size of the border.

@Anonymous,

 

You are most welcome.

 

I am not sure why it does not want to read it for you.

That field is hard-coded in the table setup dialog box. You can only Check it or Uncheck it.

So I am not sure what property that one reads.

 

If I had 2021 installed I would be testing it out for you.

This is a work Laptop so we are limited to what we can install.

 

Have a pleasant evening, weekend and be safe

Hi

This error occurs if the window region option is set to Turkish.

Change region option from Turkish to English (American)
