Isometric configuration

Hello,


I was trying to configure a series of changes in the isometrics. I would like to know if it would be possible to do it in the project setup or through isoconfig.xml file.

 

I would like to modify the BOM so that there are new columns.

 

1- One of them indicates the types of element ends as BE/BE. Both start and end. There is an option to add an end, but it only indicates one end joint, not both.

 

2- I would like to create two columns. One where I can see the size of the bolts (diameter) and another column for the length of the bolts. Currently, the bolt dimensions are listed together as 1" x 100, for example, and I would prefer the dimensions to be separate. Yes, it is possible to create a column with the metric (diameter). But I don't see the option to add the bolt length.

 

I tried that second question like this, but it doesnt run.

 

I added a line in IsoConfig.xml ---> <ColumnMappings>

 

<ColumnMapping HeaderName="BoltSizeLength" Label="BOLT SIZE/LENGTH" />

 

IsoConfig.xml ---> <TableSchemes> ---> <Templates>

 

<Column RelativeWidth="1.5" Label="BOLT SIZE/LENGTH" HeaderDisplayName="BOLT SIZE/LENGTH" />

 

And in PropertyTranslationMapping.xml

 

<ColumnMappings>
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="PartNumber" Label="ID" />
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="Quantity" Label="QTY" />
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="Size" Label="ND" />
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="SCHClass" Label="SCH/CLASS" />
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="BoltSizeLength" Label="BOLT SIZE/LENGTH" /> 
<ColumnMapping HeaderName="Description" Label="DESCRIPTION" />
</ColumnMappings>

 

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

 

 

Thank you very much! I appreciate your trouble.

@nicolasrecio53 ,

 

As far as I know, this can only be done in the title block configuration because you not only want to add a line in the parts list but also a table containing the value you want to see in the BOM.

@h_eger  Thank you for your response.


I've tried making the change in the BOM, but while there's an option to add a bolt diameter property, there's no bolt length property at all. And if I try to add a property to fasteners, Plant3D doesn't allow it. That's why I was wondering if it would be possible to do this through code in the XML files somehow.
