    Default conditional blocks

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi people

    I'm thinking about making conditional blocks for beam-profiles. I know it's possible to make conditions of the sort "width = 2xLength". But is it possible to make conditions of the sort:
    "If length=100 then width=342, if length=200 then width=530"?

    best regards

    Welcome to CADTutor

    Consider using a Dynamic Block with either multiple Visibility States, or a Lookup Parameter.

    I've seen structural section blocks like this before which as Lee Mac said, were done with dynamic blocks.
