How do I easily display part volumes?
How do I easily display part volumes?
(OP)
I'm trying to come up with an easy way to display the volume of all the parts in our PDM vault without actually going into every single part and entering the data. It's easy to create a parameter in the part, but since we have hundreds of parts, I can't help thinking there's an easier way. Volume already exists in every SolidWorks part as "SW-Volume". The ultimate goal is to click on a part in PDMWorks and see the volume there as a parameter. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this without entering data hundreds of times, or do I need to grit my teeth, hunker down and start entering data?
Thanks for the assistance.
