Pictures in bills of materials

Anonymous — Wed, 13 Oct 2004 09:10:26 GMT

Hi,

is there a way to show a picture of objects when I do a "list elements". I saw that I could use command DRAWING in property or parameter script. But this only shows the 2d script. But i want to do more complex list there I could show more informations than there is on floorplan / elevations.
For example cuttinglists of wood.

I'm a little confused with this question. Are you asking for something other than 2D or asking if you can place additional data in the list besides the 2D drawing?

Oh 😃 Sorry for my bad english.

My question was how too do special drawings that shows in bills of materials instead of the regular 2d drawings on plan. I want to have more complex drawings in materialists than on plan.
For example, show all 6 sides on a cube.

Let us approach this from the other direction.

For example, we have a list for floor sheathing. The object in the 2D window is basically a polygon but when you run the element list, all the sides are dimensioned and the picture of the dimensioned sheet is displayed as well as specific info of the sheet like quanity, thickness, span rating, etc.

Is this what you're looking for?
