Generates a Bill of Material schedule listing each object with a length and a tag. Identical items are accumulated in the quantity column. For example, if you select two W14X74 components that are both 120 feet long, the BOM looks like this:

BILL OF MATERIALS

LONG ANNOTATION

1480.00

TOTAL WEIGHT: 1480.00

Bill of material lengths are based on DIMLFAC, DIMDEC, and DIMLUNIT.

Counter

Select this option to start the tag counter at any positive nonzero integer. When set, the command resumes requesting that you pick Manual placement or Automatic placement of tags.

Manual placement

Select to insert tags manually. You are prompted for the tag location. The software adds a rubber band line attached to the component extending to the specified tag location. You must continue specifying locations until the last component’s tag has been placed.

Automatic placement

Select to have CADWorx insert tags automatically. In model space, CADWorx places the tag in the direction (tag to component) provided. In paper space, this prompt does not appear if the tag optimization is on. For more information, see Bill of Material Settings.

CADWorx performs special optimization for automatic tag placement while in paper space only. This optimization places tags in non-overlapping positions and is controlled by the Optimize variable in the current settings.
