Hello everyone,
I'm coming to you for a change that seems rather simple to me but I can't apply it
I would like to rename my articles from the list of welded construction by the name of my parts
then as a result with each new article it will follow the numbering +1
Attached photos
for the moment I do it manually but I would like to make a property shortcut or a concatenation to automate it with each new part
Thank you for your advice
Hello
This can be done simply with the " SmartProperties " tool from the myCADtools offer.
I made you an example video (see attached)
Here is the link to the myCADtools help if you want more information: myCADtools help
Sincerely,
+1 for @fmarchand's solution.
Except that I had to create a small macro to reset the counter.
Content of the *.BAT File:
@echo off
ECHO f | XCOPY *Emplacement du fichier*SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude.xml *Emplacement du fichier*SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude_OLD.xml /Y
ECHO f | XCOPY *Emplacement du fichier*SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude.xml *Emplacement du fichier*SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude.xml /Y
cls
echo.
EXIT
And the addition of the Macro button (Application Type) in Smartproperties.
with:
SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude.xml => Smartproperties file (increment Num+1)
SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude_OLD.xml => Backup of SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude.xml (just in case).
and
SmartCounter_Num-mecanosoude-RAZ.xml => Start value at 0 and increment+1
<Value value="000" StartValue="0" step="1" />
Kind regards.
Hello
Normally no need to create a macro, you can use an automatic counter based on the "File name" variable for example.
This means that every time you have a different "File Name" value, the counter starts from zero.

hello Mr. Marchand
A big thank you to you
I just have a small problem when activating smart Drawings the renaming no longer holds and go back to the initial description
Can you show me?
Sir, good evening, I'll get back to you, it worked perfectly to do some renaming
I would now like to create part counters for identical parts in an assembly and increment their values in the properties of the parts to avoid doing this work by hand I think it is necessary to create a counter called SW file name but I stall on how to operate thank you for your feedback
Hello
Can you tell me a little more about the request in order to fully understand?
An example
Kind regards
Hello Florian_Racine,
You just do button must => property on the body on the soldered element in your list of soldered parts and so on...
To be continued @+.

Hello Florian,
Then erase and reload a new nomenclature.
It should do it.

Good evening
yes when using smart Properties in an assembly I would like to apply a property in the selected parts that compose it
a property that would count identical parts in this assembly.
for the increment in the properties of the parts that have been selected.
for example assembly 1 composed of 3 parts P1 mark 9 parts P2
I would like to increment the quantity property 3 In the P1 parts. and the quantity property 9 in the P2 coordinate system .
or a counter of coins with the same name.
Thank you for your help.
Hello
We can actually use an automatic multi-selection counter on the assembly so that it increments a value based on a specific property.
However, it is not possible to automatically detect identical parts. Identical in name, geometry, etc...
If you are using a SmartProperties automatic counter, your so-called "identical" files must be the same value on the property as you use in the Automatic counter.
Kind regards
