timber spreadsheet does not include type, wood class or object name

Open juliencarnot opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

even when setting attributes for beams and panels, the only info that appears in the tag column of the spreasheet is Wood-Frame or NoTag. It would be useful to include type, wood class and if possible the object's name in order to produce an usable cut list if you're working with different wood types...

Hi, I've tried to work around this, defining all the tags I could for my beams, but I can'f find a way to display something else than Wood-Frame or NoTag. I really need to check what is listed and know what is what in the spreadsheet, as I have arrays and cutplanes composite objects and not just isolated beams...

I had a look at master/WFList.py which seems to have checks on tags at https://github.com/JeromeL63/Wood-Frame/blob/81162d33345b5e0ac35293ad14fffe92f3b05cf5/WFList.py#L243 , but I'm not sure where the bug is. For me it would already be a great improvement to list the object name (or names, if several having the same dimension are grouped) in a column in the spreadsheet, if tag support is sketchy. Any hints on this? Thanks!
