c991257 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi. We have a setup with three people making drawings in inventor. However they can't puzzle out how to make Inventor make automatic drawing lists and they painstakingly do this in excel by hand. This results in a frequent errors in the drawing list. How do have Inventor autogenerate a drawing list / drawing register? /Møller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faouweb Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi, You can insert a Parts List in your IDW. Annotate --> Table --> Parts List. When you finish inserting the table you can export to differnet file such as xls - csv... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c991257 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 It's not a parts list I'm looking for. It a list of drawings or a drawing register (not sure I'm using the correct wording). Eg: 10000 - Foundations 10100 - Water mains 10101 - Toilet section 10102 - Kitchen Section 20000 - Walls 30000 - Roof The parts list is a subset of the components in each drawing. Those are a different story. /Møller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Ferral Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 We use AutoCADs sheet set manager for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c991257 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 Are you using that with Inventor? /Møller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
