I have a submodel that is 'formed'; all hinges are rotated. Then I have a copy of that submodel which is non-formed; completely straight. I want LPub to generate instructions for the non-formed version, but then showing the formed version in the assembly. I hope that makes sense to anyone.
Is there a way to do this? I can vaguely remember I did something like this in the past, but I wasn't able to find my implementation so I'm not sure it's even possible. Any ideas?
I would suggest you make use of the REMOVE GROUP meta and grouping like MLCad does.
This way you can put all your hinge parts in groups and then add a last step where you "remove" all the groups and place all hinges formed.
I could help you if you're willing to sent me the model via pm or e-mail. I'll take a look.
Hmm, not sure what you mean. I never really used MLCad very much, also never heard of the group meta.
I'll see if I can send anything.
