Stefan B. Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Hey, A datatag for cable showing the used parts in that cable run works fine, but is it possible to have a line shift for each cable type listed? Image below shows an example, Is it possible to get this to be: 1.5mm Motor Socapex-19 Cable 6m : 1; 1.5mm Motor Socapex-19 Cable 24m : 3; Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Nikolay Zhelyazkov Posted January 2 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 2 Hello @Stefan B., I suppose that this is done by reading some data from a parameter in the cable, so there is no easy way to split this precisely. You can turn on Text Wrap for your text object and then it will become multiline, but the problem is that you cannot always tell what should be the fixed text width that gets this done correctly. The other way would be to try to do this using worksheet functions for substring and that way getting each cable part on a new row in the formula, but this will work with a fixed number of cable parts.
