There are 4 types of plotted Weld list:
Fixed original
Fixed operations box
Variable layout
User defined
Setting the property ActiveList on the WeldList object controls this.
If this property is set to Fixed, then the property ShowOperationsBox on the FixedLayout object below the Weldlist object is used to control whether it is an Original or Operations box Weld list.
If the property is set to Variable, then the data for the VariableLayout object needs to be set.
If this property is set to User defined, then the data for the Userdefined object needs to be set. Also for the User defined weld list there must be a backing sheet, which has the columns and headings required for the weld list.
The properties on the WeldList object need to be set for all types of weld list, as these control the number of welds at special situations.
The VariableLayout object's property HeaderLines sets up the text header line for the variable layout, and the contents (TextColumns) define to ISOGEN the data, start column, and justification on the horizontal line.
The UserDefined object's properties and contents (XYColumns collection) define to ISOGEN how the data will be positioned on the isometric, such that it lines up with the columns on the backing sheet. The properties define the start position, layout, and font for the data, and the XYColumns collection stores each data item to be output.
The properties of the SummaryFile object below the WeldList object control the format, titles and headers, etc, for the Printed weld list. The XYColumns collection below the SummaryFile object stores each data item to be output, and their position along the line in the file.
