Hello guys, I tried so much, but have I lost all ideas ...
The thing is, that I would like to modify my Cut-list (part list) that it would group same frames together under one position number, and I found couple of options for that, but its just NOT as I would like to have it.
there is options like "same part number with type, mass and lenght" or grouping with 1st key <lenght> and 2nd key <mass> for example,
but in both of these options there is a problem with mittered frames that looks similar but are "mirrored" so they are not the same...
I would like to have same frames as one position number with the same part number and with all the atributes like type, mass, lenght, but if they are mirrored I need them as 2 different BOM position.
for better understading, see picture 1
I would like to have POS 1 and 4 as one position number for both, with QTY (MNOŽ. in my table) of 2 as it is, as long they are the same, but if I would make a hole into one, I need them separately (with <mass> in part number I can manage this) but... if I make generating tubes like that, there will be problem with POS 2 and 5, because their parameteres are also the same but they are not, they are mirrored so it cant be with one POS number... check picture no. 2
and second question connected to Frame joining through frame generator with trim or mitter,
does anyone knows if its possible to make mitter/trim/notch parameter by my own word in every language for all Inventor language mutations in our company? so it would generates these parameters in all languages in our company the same? because right know in ENG inventor it generates parameter "CUTDETAIL1" - "Miter 45.00 deg" but in for example Czech language inventor "Vyjmout detail 1" - "Pokos 45.00 deg" so Im not able to create one cutlist for all inventor language mutations. btw, I dont like any of these predefined, I would like to make it generate my own word for these operations, is it possible to make it in some kind of "frame generator styles" that in every language joining frames with "mitter" will create parameter "CUT" - "45st." or what so ever?
If its not understandable what I mean, tell me please, I will try to describe it better in comments 🙂 sorry for my english, not native
Thank you very much for any advice
