Excluding some parts from numbering
Environment
Not environment-specific
Question:
It would sometimes be useful to exclude some parts and assemblies from numbering (for example, all parts and all assemblies with start number 0).
I need this option as, for example, when unfolding a part, I get two objects in the model of the very same part. I would like to exclude the duplicate (the unfolded one) from numbering.
Answer:
One option is that you use a unique prefix for the parts which you do not want to include in templates etc. This way an accidental error can be recognized more easily.
In the case of duplicate parts, you can export the duplicate to an IFC model and place it back to the model. This way you can also have a drawing of the duplicate part.
