B. Ludin Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 How can I generate a series of copies with an incremented parameter? Let's say I need 100 versions of a part with heights ranging from 1 to 100mm? Can this be done in IC somehow? If not, I would put in an ER to have the copy dialog feature an "increment parameter" functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Design Variations support the ability to create different versions of a part based on parameters. You will need to add the driving parameters at the top level of the part/assembly. Then add the design variation to the part/assembly. When you edit the design variation, you can create a number of tabs for the various sizes. Note: Linked shapes will carry the same Design Variation.

B. Ludin Posted May 31, 2022 Author Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) Yes, but that doesn't save me from hand-typing the 100 height values, right? I'm looking for a possibility to increment a parameter automatically. Or, as more flexible approach, have IC iterate through the rows of an Excel sheet an generate a new part/shape reading the parameter values for each part/shape from a new row.

Cary OConnor Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I don't think there is a tool for that at the moment. All the cases I can think of would require the manual process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
