hi all


i am sending you a doc file. with a problem i am facing with nested repeat reagion.


leme explain a bit.


i have a assembly with few subassemblies and parts.


say the maximum no of parts in a subassembly is 10 and other subassemblies have 5 or 8 parts. But in nested repeat region it is maiking 10 rows for all subassemblies. keeping the rest blank (when there is 5 or8 parts)


i cannot filter or delete these blank rows.


looking forward for solution

first: You can directly upload an image file using the buttons provided. No need to paste in word and then compress it.


As regards your problem... Table> Repeat region>attributes>minimum repeats> (set to 0).

and regarding your solution: attribute is already set to 0.

Maybe you can set the filter to be "by rule"?

e.g. repeat regen->filters->by rule->edit

Then a text editor shown up,

type &asm.mbr.USER PARAMETERS != ""

Then save and exit.



The USER PARAMETERS can be description, part no... which are defined in
the part parameters. e.g. &asm.mbr.part_no != "" means filtering
out the items that the part no is empty.

if you type &asm.mbr.part_no == "", then keeps only the item that the part no is empty.

hi zeta





i have never used rule based filter ever before


i have tried the way you said but it is not working


can you explain this feature bit more


say i have a parameter 'discription' that is empty


so i am giving &asm.mbr.discription !=


till this its ok


then what next?

it is not showing any change (even after undating the table)

 

[zeta]

At first, all parts have a parameter called description, otherwise the filter ignores it.



&asm.mbr.description != "" means the description of part is not equal to "" (empty)
and these parts will be shown on the table



you can see:

and regarding your solution: attribute is already set to 0.

Dear Sanjeev,


As I see it you need to select each nested repeat region level and set the attributes, No Duplicates and min repeats to Zero. I post below a sample bom Before and after.

see guys this is what i have done and i have tried everything you people said. but unfortunatly i still can't get rid of those f***ing blank columns

 

[SRINIVASANIYER1]

Anger blinds the eye and numbs the brain. Take a vacation for 2 days and then try again.

I persist that your level 3 and Level 4 (perhaps, not sure)does not have attribute values No duplicates and Minimum repeats set to 0 (zero).


Further post a snap shot of the table with the values toggled.

 

[sanjeevkar1]

i give up





finally i have put it to PTC people lets see what they come up to

 

[SRINIVASANIYER1]

Dear Sanjeev,


Do not forget to post what PTC has to say. It would help for future reference.

 

[sanjeevkar1]
