Assemblies containing parts based on unit of measure quantities.

    I'm trying to us SWx to generate a BOM that will automatically show how
    much of a part is used. Eg length of wire in meters, and the amount of
    epoxy in grams. I could model 1 gram of epoxy, and insert X amount of
    instances to display the total in the BOM, but this seems kind of
    stupid to me, and I wouldn't be able to do this for wire (how do you
    insert a fraction of a part?) Does anybody know if SWx can do this?
    We use SWx generated BOM's to drive our manufacturing software and
    would like this to include wire harness assemblies and potting mix.
