Script for Report on Name and Amount of Components
-
...i just can't seem to get it right.
it tried several scripts so far, but none have given me the desired output.
i even used the generate report function withing SU7PRO.what i want is this:
i would liket to select a group or component or several things within a SU model,
then run a script within SU that asks me where to put the file and how to name it.
it should give me one of the following:
.CSV with attributes NAME and AMOUNT
or
.TXT same as above
or
.PDF (would be nicest)i need no other attributes.
the thing is i could us componentreport.rb, but it creates a default within a fixed folder.
i could use componentreporter+, but it wont list me the amounts.
i could use the generate report from SU7, but it wont list me the amounts.and i have to vreate a lot counts from different parts of my models..
what should i do?
thx 4 any kind of advice...

what i do with the reports:
i need to make lists of parts within my models to give them to someone else
to be able to order the right amounts...of whatever i select within SU -
i already had v1.6.
works prety good thanks
maybe i could also use the additional listing of LAYER attributes.
it creats a component report, which tells me names and amounts.
it creates an instance report, which tells me which layer its on.could i maybe create a combination?
=.csv telling me NAME; NUMBER; LAYER ?
thx alot...

i'll give the modification a try .... -

works prety good thanksThat v1.6 was ComponentReporter+ this is ComponentReporter++ (v1.1) that does slightly different things...
It puts the reports in the same folder as the model...
You could hack a UI.openpanel() to get the folder from a picked file in it ?
I've tried to write it so it's reasonably self-evident - try small tweaks to see if you can do what you want....
