"Block Size" template

Anonymous

Hello, group.

See CF, same subject.

I made a ipt template file that gets the RangeBox of the solid and places
the values in a custom property. I'll use it to put a "block size" field in
my BOM. The shop can then use the BOM to cut and square-up blocks.

It's a bit like Jorgen's AutoSize template, but this one never requires
direct user input; the solid body is "measured" and the property updates
when the part is saved.

I hope some of you have the time to help me test it. Any comments or
requests will help me refine it. I'll gladly share the final product if
anyone is interested, too.

If you're still reading, try this:
1. Open the ipt
2. Create any feature(s)
3. Save the file
4. Check the Custom Properties.

That should do it.

TIA,
George

This works great. Is it possible to adapt it for round parts?
