How to add custom lenghts to bolt components ?
Hello,
I am trying to use the bolts supplied in Bricscad (M10 bolts) but they are not long enough. Normally I would just explode and stretch. But this time I want to use the bill of materials so I need to keep them as components. Is there a way to add additional lengths to bolts. Even If I need to save to a new component ?
Thanks.

Ok. I got it.
First save the component elsewhere (BMEXTERNALIZE). Open the new component file and edit the table:
Export the "PartNumber" (-DESIGNTABLEEDIT) table to a csv.
Edit that csv to add new dimensions.
Replace the "PartNumber" table in BricsCAD with your own "PartNumber" table. (-DESIGNTABLEEDIT -> Replace ....)0
