Chart

I am trying to model a series of one part shown in different sizes. Does anyone know of a way to construct a table or chart with the different dimensions and incorporating it into pro-e?

Basically instead of modeling one part 12 times in 12 different sizes. is their a way to model it once and have the program model it in the other sizes I need?

Thanks
Ryan
 
Yes, do as Tobbo says, use Family Tables.


Go to Tools>family table and then in the first column, generate the instance names for all the various parts. Then add the dimenion/s that you want to change for each instance.


Family tables are a very powerful tool once you get the hang of them.
 
I have a basic tutorial in PDF, should be enough to get you started. Send me a PM with your e-mail and I'll forward it to you.
