2D Parametric Block Help
How would you create a simple stretch zone?
See attached. The only lines that would change are the two vertical lines.
The upper lines depicting the nut would move up & down but not change size.
Forgot I'm using BC Pro 18.2

I guess it doesn't matter because PRO will not allow MBINSERT.
Wonder if Platinum supports all the Parametric block commands?0 -
Alan,
Perhaps you should try BMINSERT, not MBINSERT. I don't use parametric blocks but I do get a file selection pop-up when I issue BMINSERT in Pro.

- Thanks for the reply but:
-
BMINSERT
Platinum features are not included in your license
Perhaps it's because i am using version 18.2

BTW the MBINSERT was just my dyslexic typing.

I'm using V20 so it may be a version issue
Dyslexic typing? I know a bit about that.

I'm using BC Pro 18.2It would be difficult to do this with BricsCAD V18 Pro using 2D Constraints, due to the shear number of constraints you would need to create. In Later releases of BricsCAD you can apply 2D constraints to blocks, which allows you to turn parts of your component into rigid elements, avoiding the need to create a multitude of constraints. Later versions also allow you to use
BMINSERTwith the BricsCAD Pro.
See Go-Bolt-2D-V20.dwg attached.In V18 Platinum it is possible to use Components with 3D constraints to create. Once it has been BMINSERT'd, then a V18 Pro user can modify the parameters.
See Go-Bolt-ccl.dwg attached.Unfortunately there is a bug in V18 that can muck up the parametric block when you
COPYit. this bug has since been fixed.Regards,

What happened here!? I see no questions about blocks or parametrics
Are you just wanting to stretch it your area is in the wrong place . right to left . Been the same since V1 ( wich I by the way have missplaced by now)0 -
