KOMPAS-3D v23

1.Improved Product BOM panel:

•There has appeared the option to send the values of the Designation, Name and Note from the product to its constituents. It is available to send the selected property either to an individual component or to all components at once. To do this, you need to invoke the command Send to source from the context menu of the individual cell or column header in the Product BOM panel. The command is present in the menu if the property in the cell (or cells of the column) is not linked with the source.

Sending designation and name to the source

•There has appeared the option to rearranging reference numbers in the assembly model. To generate/update position numbers, use the Set ref.Nos. button on the BOM panel. It is present if the display of the column Position is enabled on the Panel, and there are no BOMs associated with the assembly.

Calculation of item numbers in an assembly

•If BOM (file *.spw) is connected to a product or a constituent part, then the format of this document (usually A4) automatically sends to the product/consistuent part. If the option to transfer the format from another attached document is enabled, it will be disabled, except in cases where the product/BOM item receives the format from another BOM previously сonnected.

•Improved the detailing of the KOMPAS-3D window when positioning the Product BOM panel Expand: The panel no longer covers the lower part of the window, where the model orientation control (on the left) and the pop-up messages (on the right) are displayed. Now these interface elements are displayed above the Product BOM panel. Moreover, the Panel no longer overlaps the additional Document tree (if it is enabled), as the additional Tree now terminates above the Panel.

2.The Product BOM panel has become available when when working with graphic documents.

•In the drawing, the Product BOM panel allows:

•view and edit properties of the document itself, as well as properties of macro-elements, fragment insertions, and views;

•create constituent parts without visual representation and set their properties,

•view the properties of the model projected into the drawing and its components.

•In the fragment, the Product BOM panel allows you to view and edit properties of the document itself.

3.A new system property Product name has been added. It is intended for entering the name of the specific product and is used if the property Name should, in addition to this name, contain something else. For example, the name of a part without a drawing also includes the material designation and other data necessary for its manufacture.

4.The value of the property Name can now include a link and plain text or several links (previously — either simple text or a single link). Creating several references in the name may be required, for example, when entering information about a part without a drawing: its name is usually supplemented with the designation of the material and the dimensions necessary for manufacturing (for example, length). This data can be included in the part name as references to the corresponding properties of the same part.

5.The value of the property of the object can now be a link to another property of the same object.
