weldment mirror question
(OP)
I mirrored a weldment part.
Is there any way to get cut-list of this mirrored part. If i mirror a part i lost my cut-list in mirrored part.
And i use relativeview to take body views. But i need to give number or name to all body views which are linked to cut-list.
I dont want to use item numbers because they are changeful.What is your method to show position number or position name of the body views in your sheets.if i bounded to use item numbers,I need to show item number in a note. When i insert a linked note to body view, note must write item number.
Sorry for bad ordered sentences.
with all respect.

Right mouse click on the Cut List icon in the models Feature Manager and select Update.
"I need to show item number in a note."
SW2008 has the ability to include associative balloon references into a note.

is it because of my old sp3.1 ? I don't use sp4, because it has some problems,especially with limit mates.

Can you create the mirror within the Weldment instead of an assembly?
RE: weldment mirror question
configuration or similar methods.
Firstly thank you for your patience. ? want to change the question. What do you do when you need an assembly with two weldment structures which are mirror of each other.
RE: weldment mirror question
If you've already made the mirror feature, if you edit it you can only change the list of respective features or bodies...you can not change the feature from mirroring features to mirroring bodies ...or vice versa. You will have to delete the mirror feature and re-create it choosing bodies this time.

I would create a mirror image within the weldment and use it as is in the assy.
... or
If separate structures were truly needed, I would make a copy of the weldment, then create the mirror image within that copy, but use the Delete bodies function to "suppress" the original weldment bodies.
