Yes/No Relation for suppressed features

[jmadd]

Is there a way to report whether a feature is suppressed in a relation?

I am trying to create a start-part tube with some initially suppressed miter cuts. If the designer wants to use them, they can be unsuppressed. I'm trying to report them automatically to my cut list.

The logic would look something like:

If
(Cut_A is suppressed)
Cut_A_Angle = 0
else
Cut_A_Angle = d17
endif

Where d17 is the angle in the extrude cut. This is of course simplified from what I'm trying to do exactly, but... Can I test whether something is suppressed or not? What does that look like?

Thanks!

John,

Would it be possible to also set a dummy variable at the same time?

For instance:

If
(Cut_A is suppressed)
Cut_A_Angle = 0
am_i_suppresed_flag = 1
else
Cut_A_Angle = d17
am_i_suppresed_flag = 0
endif

Just a thought. It has been a while since I have done programming in proE using relations.
