Parameter table

Menu access: Parameter | Table

Description:

Allows you to create a table of parameters allowing you to display and modify the parameters of the table.

General philosophy:

  1. Select the first point of the table.

  2. Select the alignment point (giving the table width) or click on the FREE SIZE button.

  3. Choose the number of columns or choose the STANDARD option.

  4. For each column:

  1. Select the parameters to display in the table.

Available option(s):

The FREE SIZE option allows you to not impose a table width.

The STANDARD option allows you to use the default column configuration. In this default configuration there are 5 columns which are: name, expression, nominal value, effective value and comments.

Example of standard table :

Specific point(s):

You can select parameters from another document if you want. This can be useful to modify the driving parameters of a 3D part from its drawing layout document.

Available modification(s):

When you pick the table lines or the column titles TopSolid (or TopSolid'Draft) display a dialog box which allows you to change the table aspect (line height, text height, margins, column names,...). It's possible to change a column format using the same syntax than a BOM file.

If you didn't select the FREE SIZE option before, a ratio value will be applied on each value (height, margins,...) of the table in order to respect the width of the table (size between two points or title block size).

When you pick a text (except the title texts) of the table, TopSolid (or TopSolid'Draft) display a dialog box which allows you to change all the parameter values.
