XS_CAST_UNIT_MULTI_NUMBER_FORMAT_STRING

Category in Advanced options dialog box: Numbering

Use this advanced option to base cast unit numbers on drawing numbers. Use the following switches to define the contents of the cast unit marks. Use as many switches as you need, and enclose each one in percent symbols (%).

The available switches are:


Switch	Description
`%CAST_UNIT_MULTI_DRAWING_NUMBER%`	Multidrawing name.
`%CAST_UNIT_MULTI_DRAWING_POS%`	Position of the cast unit drawing inside the multidrawing.
`%CAST_UNIT_PREFIX%`	Cast unit prefix in the model.
`%CAST_UNIT_POS%`	Cast unit position number in the model.
Template fields	Enter `TPL:` followed by the name of any relevant template field. Enclose each name in percent symbols (%). For example, `%TPL:PROJECT.NUMBER%` NOTE: No template fields starting with `DRAWING` work for this advanced option, for example, `DRAWING.TITLE1`. If you use them in the value, Tekla Structures will replace the whole value string with the default value.
User-defined attributes that are defined in the `objects.inp` file	Enter `UDA:` followed by the name of any relevant user-defined attribute, exactly as it appears in the objects.inp file. For example, `%UDA:MY_INFO_1%`

This advanced option is model specific and the setting is saved in the options database.

Example

To put the cast unit multinumbers in the format multidrawing name + part prefix + position on multidrawing, set the advanced option as follows:

%CAST_UNIT_MULTI_DRAWING_NUMBER%%CAST_UNIT_PREFIX%%CAST_UNIT_MULTI_DRAWING_POS%

This will create the cast unit mark 10B1, where:

10 is the drawing number
B is the cast unit prefix
1 designates that it is the first cast unit on the sheet.
