Feature Names Options
Get feature names
When checked, DBWorks looks at all the feature names of the document being saved and checks if these names match the Feature names prefixes assigned in the list below. This feature is very powerful when used on models containing features created using the Insert Library Feature functionality of SolidWorks.
Name of the field to fill with the feature names
If the Get feature names option is checked, this field contains the name of the Document table field to be filled with the names of the features found in the model being saved. DBWorks separates each name with the ^ character (example: Hole^Fillet^Base-extrude^); this format is compatible with the Intergated Advanced Filter.
Prefix of features to consider
This list must be filled by the user with the names of the features that you want to put into the field assigned by the Name of the field to fill with the feature names option.
The list is made of regular expressions with wild characters like * or ?, as used in the standard operating system file names.
Some examples:
hole* |
collects all the feature whose name begin with the word hole |
|---|---|
*hole* |
collects all the features that contain the word hole in their names |
*hole |
collects all the features that end with the word hole |
hole?? |
collects all the features that have a name of exactly 6 characters and that begin with the word hole |
