Jonas@Solidmakarna Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 The default metric Parameter table units are in meters, not millimeters. So divide the expression with 1000 and the value 1 in MS Excel will become 1 mm in IRONCAD. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas@Solidmakarna Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Or create another parameter which uses an L/1000 expression and use that parameter to control your shape instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonas@Solidmakarna Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 As far as I know I don't think you can get the information sent to MS Excel in a way that the values from IC are updated in MS Excel in "real time". But through export of BOM information from the scene or the drawing. It's the same the other way, you must run some kind of function to read the information and the files usually must be saved (I think) before the information is being updated in the other program.
