Elevations on Worksheets
« on: Nov 07, 2012, 18:34:31 PM »
Is there a way yet to get Z elevation of items onto worksheets? Either in 2013 or maybe it was updated in Lok 21 that I don't know about?

Or is there a way to read this in a script so I can put it in another field?

Thanks.

Item Connector Z Location for reports.

And

item.endlocation(1,"Z") for scripting.
This will only report End 1

item.endlocation("Z")
This will return all end locations.

This is not available in Worksheets though, that's what I'm looking for.  If not that, I will use the scripting for now.

No prob.  Thanks for the scripting though.  Will see if I can put that to good use.

I thought I talked to some users about the worksheets path and they said they got it working, but I've never seen it.

I suppose Center of Gravity Z will not work? That is available in Worksheets but I am assuming you are needing end connection Z locations right?

This will only report End 1

item.endlocation("Z")
This will return all end locations.

How would I get bottom location?  Like in REPORTS you can get Connector Location Z Position Bottom #1.  This is for hangers.  If I do the (1,"Z"), this is center, (2,"Z") is top of rod, and (3,"Z") is still center of hanger.

Put the elevation in a custom field to show in a worksheet.

You have everything you need as far as variables for the calculation. You have btm of hanger and top of hanger. Z ele = (BTM + ((top-btm)/2) ) then subtract any od if this was a clevis or roller.

I haven't found a way. We placed the od in all the pipe.
