Weldment Cut List

Open ScotchEgg71 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Hi I have tried a few macros and although they are great there are a couple of drawbacks as in when using the rename cultist's it works great unless you change the model and have added more bodies. When you then rerun the macro it gets confused and does not rename the cultists sequentially and sometimes it will not let you rename them saying that it exists when it does not. The solid bodies one does not work for some reason, could there be a macro that renames the cut list to the filename + say 001 ( I know this works in the original ) but also renames the 1st body in each cultist to the same name as the cultist but rename the other bodies to say duplicate. This way when saving bodies it would be easy to select the ones required. If you then add more weldment profiles, when running the macros again can it just clear the names an start again so the cut lists and bodies are correctly sequentially named. I know its a lot to ask but also what would be nice is to make the macro could save the selected bodies to a folder called "Laser Tube" say as step files. What I don't want the macro to do is ask anything of where to save could this be predefined within the macro i.e. no pop up boxes.
