Parametric units: February 2009 Archives

Since interiorcad 2009, it is possible to define the amount of connectors depending on the unit's size. The main control to achieve this is the connector distance edit.
If you want to apply two additional dowels in case a unit becomes deeper than 508mm, you can write a simple formula like this one into the distance edit:

37 69(508) 0 -69(508) -37

Of course this will also work for feet and inches*:

1 1/2"; 2 1/2"(20"); 0; -2 1/2"(20"); -1 1/2"

Changes will be visible in the part layouts and (of course) the NC export.

* You will need the SP2 update to get it working
