Hi,

 

I created dynamic blocks with stretching parameter and attributes for extraction.After extraction count, Name and length is extracted. Same as i need to make a number of multiple blocks in one single block with all stretching parameter that should update in extraction.Please go through the below attached blocks.I tried with attributes but the problem is with tag.

I'm not understanding the question.  Are you looking for a block 'name' to extract that reflects the stretch/size?

 

I was checking out the block, you could limit the Distance1 parameter values to a minimum of 150 and a maximum of 1000 to stay within the size range noted in the blocks name.

Yes, I'm Looking for block that should reflect size and Stretch while extracting.For single Block data extracting correctly with unique tag in attributes.Coming to the multiple blocks in one single block,i have no idea how to set stretch values in attributes for multiple blocks with same tags for extraction.

The name of a block can't be changed by values inside the block but you can add an attribute in the block that uses text and fields that can be extracted in place of the name of the block.

 

During the data extraction just hide the name column and keep the attribute column.

 

In the attached file I made a sample of the above method.  I left the attributes visible, but they could be set as hidden in the final block.

Hi MMcCall402,

That worked for me,thank you for your reply.I need to Combine both 150 and 200MM reducers in one block not in individual blocks.With visibility parameters,Stretch and attributes.I need to prepare Bom for different size reducers with stretch value such as Length.Is it possible to do in one block.

Yes, see block 'Reducer' in the attached file.

 

I copied the line work from the 200 to 150, pasted it into the 150 to 100 block and saved it as 'Recucer'  I added two visibility states, named them to reflect the two sizes. The line work was set to only show in the correct visibility state while the parameters and attributes are visible in both states.  The Part_Name attribute value was edited to include a field for the name given to the visibility states and another field for the length.
