Question - I need to show Node to Node length in my BOM, is this possible?
Answer - You can show Node to Node length by adding a value field in the template editor using the formula below
sqrt((pow(GetValue("MAINPART.END_X")- GetValue("MAINPART.START_X"),2))+(pow(GetValue("MAINPART.END_Y")- GetValue("MAINPART.START_Y"),2))+(pow(GetValue("MAINPART.END_Z")- GetValue("MAINPART.START_Z"),2)))
