Attribute Features??

[Peter Warcholyk]

Hello Folks,

I am currently programming a part using ver3.7mr3.

There will be some cad features, and some keyed in dimensions (manual measurements), which are not a problem.

I will also have some attribute checks, go/no go types of features.

Is there a way to input this type of information into a part program and have it output to my report?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Regards,
ZydecoPete

You could do a yes no comment with a question like "does the go gage go?". Then assign a variable that could be placed into a report comment.

C1         =COMMENT/YESNO,"CHECK THE PIPE THREAD HOLE WITH A GO GAGE.  DOES IT GO?"
            IF/C1.INPUT=="YES"
            ASSIGN/V1 = GOES
            END_IF/
            ELSE_IF/
            ASSIGN/V1 = DOES NOT GO
            END_ELSE/
            COMMENT/REPT,"THE GO GAGE " + V1 + " INTO THE PIPE THREAD HOLE"

There is an enhancement request for true GO/NO GO features, but it won't be before V4.2.

Hello Folks,

Thanks for your responses !!
I finally managed to get it to work out, based upon "Craiger's" response.
See below for the code that worked out for me.


C5 =COMMENT/YESNO,NO,Does the M6 x 1 plug thread gauge go?
IF/C5.INPUT=="YES"
ASSIGN/V6 = "Thread Accept"
END_IF/
ELSE_IF/C5.INPUT=="NO"
ASSIGN/V6 = "Thread Reject"
END_ELSEIF/
COMMENT/REPT,"M6 x 1 Thread = " +V6
