Setup Sheet manipulation

Eskondedo · ‎11-09-2016

Hello all,

Glad to see the transition to AD went well. I have some questions about manipulating the setup sheets and how to go about changing things. As it sits now we are currently creating NCprograms with multiple toolpaths within it and I am looking to create just the summary portion with a similar formatting as shown below. I would like to add the programmer box under the Project name within the same table and highlight the tool name and gauge length fields but everytime I attempt to do this my editor (wordpad) tries to save it back out as a richtext file and not HMTL. On top of this I cannot seem to get more then 4 toolpaths to show per page even though the allowable space for this seems to be big enough in the style file. I am not well versed with HTML but can find my way around in time. Any help here would be a godsend and would prevent an awful lot of manipulation at the printscreen and save trees 🙂 Thanks all

So I have been manipulating the code over last few months as we nail down what it is exactly we need on the shop floor and one that has been changed is cutter comp. In my current sheet it is outputting the setting for compensation but I would like to clean it up some and only identify the toolpaths with comp.

What I am looking for is to have the toolpaths with comp values set to "None" to show up blank and the comp values that have anything else to show in the box and be highlighted yellow. Is this possible? I am not well versed in HTML and have been messing with it for a while but it seems to whoopin my butt. Below is my coding im sure the line:

<td align="center" colspan="3">${nctoolpath.CutterRadiusCompensation.Type.Value}</td>

Needs some form of ifelse logic built into it but im at a loss for that one.

Thanks in advance!
