NX Customizing the Shop Docs Tool List Select(Text) output Format

Some slight alterations need to be made to the Shop Documentation Tool List Select(Text) report. In this FAQ the Adjust Register output will be changed to the Tool Number and will be moved to the first column of the tool list. The Tool List Select (TEXT) is run from the Shop Documentation menu.

Notice that the ADJ REG is placed in the last column of the out-of-the-box report.

1. Edit the shopdoc_tool_list_text.tcl file in the ...\MACH\resource\shop_doc\ folder and locate the code seen below.

2. Move the mom_tool_length_adjust_register, \"ADJ REG\", %-10d and %-10s  to the first position. Be sure to keep the blank spaces and special characters in the correct order.

3. Change the mom_tool_length_adjust_register variable to mom_tool_number.

The resultant output will look like the picture below.

The TCL file with the edits seen above is attached.
