When columns need to point to certain properties, they can retrieve :

    • Or the custom properties of the SOLIDWORKS document.
    • Either the properties specific to the configuration.
    • Either the custom properties, unless this property exists in the configuration

This choice can be combined with the extraction of the properties defined in the mechanically welded file if they exist.

For the configuration-specific properties, it is possible to refine the choice.


 


Indeed, when a nomenclature is requested on selected parts from a folder, we can retrieve :

    • The values of the properties specific to the active configuration of the processed document.
    • The property values of a particular named configuration.
    • The values of all configurations of the processed document.

The interest of using this feature is to extract and export a list in Excel format with all the properties, then modify the values directly in the file to modify all the properties of the documents listed with the tool ''Integration'' from myCADtools.


  By checking this option you authorize the modification of property values directly from the BOM generated by SmartBom. This option is only active if you authorize the modification of values in "Setting up the columns".
