[b] RENAMING CONFIGURATIONS in Design Table [/b]

(OP)
Hello Catia users,

We want to rename our configurations.
By default the configurations are named by numbers, starting with 1 up to ...
We want the numbers replaced by names.
Is it possible to change the names of the different configurations?

Greetz,

Koen and Gregory

RE: [b] RENAMING CONFIGURATIONS in Design Table [/b]

it is possible to change the names of the parts, all you need to do is open the catolog document in the catolog editor and add a part family. for each instance you can rename the part names...

Thanks Jimicatia,

Thanks to your fast reply, our problem is solved.

On "Part Design"-Level we added a column to our Design Table and associate it with PartNumber. Then we filled in the column by giving each configuration a partnumber.

Partnumber:
* Small
* Medium
* Large

Those PartNumbers are shown in the tree for the correspondent configuration.

But we also tryed out the catalog, and it seem to be a beter solution if you want to use different configurations in a Assymbly.

Thanks,

Koen and Gregory
