Linking dimensions to Solidworks BOM
Linking dimensions to Solidworks BOM
(OP)
I am trying to Link Overall lengths, Widths, and heights to one column (just to show size of part). I'm sure this is simple, just looking for the right buttons.
Example:
DIMENSIONS
-------------------
2.00 x 3.00 x 1.00
Example:
DIMENSIONS
-------------------
2.00 x 3.00 x 1.00






RE: Linking dimensions to Solidworks BOM
Obviously, in a design table you can only bring one dim into one column. So if you want to have multiple dims in a column you have to create a formula such as =$a4 & "x" & $b4 & "x" & $c4. This formula can be assigned to a parameter column in the design table which can be imported into a BOM via custom properties.

"d1@sketch1" x "d2@sketch1" x "d1@extrude1"
That value is a column in the BOM.

It will then be linked to your custom property.
