onyhus Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hi, My company have lots of symbols of fittings and plastic piping parts in our library. We now want to make use of record formats and database links to automate bill of materials and quote calculation. In our workflow we need to be able to subtract from symbols, e.g. by cutting an elbow bend to size. We still want the record formats from the full size elbow that is inside the cut or the solid subtraction which this method creates. I can't find a way to collect the record format from inside these objects, does anyone know how to do this? Thanks for any help on this. Quote Link to comment
Jim Smith Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Could you not just duplicate the Symbol, rename it, and add new info to the Record? Quote Link to comment
