Macro Alias Manager/pl

Description
This macro helps managing aliases inside FreeCAD Spreadsheet workbench. It is able to:
 * create aliases based on first column (A column)
 * delete aliases placed on a column
 * move aliases from one column to another one
 * create a "part family", that's it, create different files for each column in a range. It will add to the original name a suffix based on first row (1)

More information might be found on FreeCAD forums: Macro for Spreadsheet Alias setup and Part Family Generation

And most updated versions of the macro can be downloaded from GitHub: https://github.com/pgilfernandez/FreeCAD_AliasManager

If an alias is already set for any other cell the command won't work, it will be needed to clear them before setting them again.Clear aliases: it will clear all aliases inside the given range of cells (only one column).Move aliases: it will clear and set aliases from a given column to a new one.Generate part family: it will create different files for each column in a range.
