Defines the layout and appearance of the report data in the cut list that is plotted on the isometric drawing. The Drawing Setup Tool displays this page only when User Defined Cut List is selected on the Basic Setup page. The Cut List page is divided into two sections.
-
Cut List window displays properties that control the report set up, report contents, and report location (shown graphically). These properties can be customized to meet your specific isometric drawing requirements. See Customize report settings.
-
View window displays a copy of the selected style's default backing sheet with the location of the report data superimposed upon it.
Cut List Window
Many of the properties listed below can also be defined or modified on the Basic Setup page of the tool.
Categorized
Groups cut list properties in the Cut List window by category.
Alphabetical
Groups cut list properties in the Cut List window as a flat, alphabetical list.
Cut List
Groups layout and format properties for the cut list report data, including the report origin and the text size and font.
Allow Overflow
Controls whether the cut list causes an overflow drawing.
List Down
Controls the direction in which the cut list is printed with reference to the X and Y settings under the Cut List category. If you select Down, Isogen plots the cut list from top to bottom. If you select Up, the cut list is plotted from bottom going up.
Maximum Entries
Sets the maximum number of entries in the cut list before an overflow sheet is generated. Type the required value (positive integer).
X
Sets the bottom left X, or horizontal, position of the first line of the cut list that is plotted on the isometric drawing. Type a value (integer).
Y
Sets the bottom left Y, or vertical, position of the first line of the cut list that is plotted on the isometric drawing. Type a value (integer).
Text Font
Specifies the font used to display cut list report data. Select the required font in the Text Font list.
Text Height
Specifies the height of the text that appears in the cut list report. This setting applies to all sections of the cut list. Type a value (real number) in millimeters or inches, depending on the Backing Sheet Units setting on the Basic Setup page.
Vertical Spacing
Specifies the vertical spacing between the lines of data. The vertical spacing applies to all sections in the cut list. Type a value (real number) in millimeters or inches, depending on the Backing Sheet Units setting on the Basic Setup page.
Column Settings
Controls which component attributes are plotted in the cut list report, along with basic layout properties. In the example below, the plotted cut list is set up to display five columns of attribute data. The first component attribute (CUT-PIECE-NO) is to be plotted with a zero offset from the origin (X).
Name
Specifies the name of the component attribute being defined in the report. Select the required attribute in the list.
Offset
Specifies the offset from the X and Y settings defined under the Cut List category. Type a value (real number) in millimeters or inches, depending on the Backing Sheet Units setting on the Basic Setup page. The value that you specify directly impacts the column X setting. For example, if the horizontal position of the origin for the first line of report data is set to 315.3, and you set an 18mm offset from that origin under Column 2, the horizontal start position (or X setting) for that component attribute data is 333.3.
Maximum Characters
Sets the number of entries that the column can accommodate. The value that you type must be zero or greater.
X
Specifies the horizontal start position for the column data with reference to the X setting of the cut list origin. The value that you specify causes the Offset setting to update automatically. Type a value (integer) in millimeters or inches, depending on the Backing Sheet Units setting on the Basic Setup page.
-
You can also define Offset and X, Y settings graphically using the mouse. See Define X,Y, and Offset Settings Graphically in Customize report settings.

Use Add Column
and Delete Column 
to control which component attributes are plotted on the cut list report. See Add and Remove Report Columns in Customize report settings.
