OBD U7 - Structural spreadsheet

Hi,

Is it safe to assume that with the new type structural members in OBD, the old vba structural spreadsheet no longer work? I tried to the 4 options and so far only "Schedules" works. 

Best regards,

  • Right, so basically all the quantity data is coming off datagroup data. I see the issue with datagroup quantity for an extruded solid with attached instance data still haven't been fixed. Just wondering if that had been captured? For example, please see snapshot below for an example: the 2nd base plate was extruded, and only the volume and surface areas are reported correctly. 

  • In Update 7 we have much better base plate tools driven by the underlying ProStructures technology. Plates can easily be attached to columns or beams or place as discrete objects. In this screenshot I have two base plates hosted by columns and one floating, at the top right is an extruded slab with base plate instance data attached, no empty rows are present in the MicroStation Report.

    In the Catalog Schedule the two types, Base Plate and PlateSteel (the display name needs to be amended in the dataset I'm using) could be combined into a single list using a multi category schedule.

    Regards
