Any name of the configuration file has been determined under erpcustom.cfg > USERDIALOG .

In the named configuration file (e.g. material_assign.cfg ) what parameters in 3Dfindit / PARTdataManager in the dialog box New identification number [new ident-no.] should be displayed. In the In the case of material_assign.cfg , these are for example, different materials.

3Dfindit: Material list field expanded

PARTdataManager: Material list field expanded

When parts are transferred to the CAD system, the 3Dfindit material is mapped to the CAD system material so that the physical properties can be calculated in CAD.

Syntax:

The following shows an example of the content of the specified file. The block name with an asterisk is the fallback if no other blocks have been specified.

[*]
1=;Please select...
2=8.8;(Standard)
3=10.9;(mittelfest)
4=12.9;(hochfest)
5=St 37
6=St 52

If you use the entry Please select... entry, be sure to place a semicolon before the text to display an empty internal value. This will mark the field red after an OK if no valid entry has been selected. This behavior in 3Dfindit corresponds to the previous behavior in PARTdataManager.

Dialog after clicking on "Add to link database [Add to link database]".

The translation of Please select... is possible. It is only important to also enter the semicolon in the block heading.
