I've found things like:
Dim odoc As Document
Dim ocompdef As ComponentDefinition
odoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
ocompdef = odoc.ComponentDefinition
And
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").ScaleString
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").View.Suppressed
I'm wondering, is there a list available detailing the content of the Inventor 2013 API and a list for the iLogic properties of objects? Preferably with some sort of description what they do.
It seems like most people output the whole BOM. I only want to data in the Part Number column, preferably as a list of strings.
Here's what I have so far:
foreach (Sheet oSheet2 in aDoc.Sheets){ for (int i = 1; i < (oSheet2.PartsLists.Count+1); i++) { var oPartsList = oSheet2.PartsLists[i]; for(int k = 1; k < oPartsList.PartsListColumns.Count+1; k++) { if (oPartsList.PartsListColumns[k].Title.Equals("PART NUMBER")) { //what goes here??? } } }}
We have a general template (excel file) for material list. Is there way to connect this template with inventor. Or alternatively change the inventor BOM list to suite our template?

As an academic interest I was trying to convert Brian’s code for exporting Parts list with thumbnail to VB.net 2012. I just modified the below code to remove the vb6 support. I am using VS 2012 and Inventor 2014. The end result on the word report thumb nail for some parts are not visible. It goes to the error code and putting the text instead of thumb nail. At the same time Brian’s code as it is (used the exe file to install it) works fine on the same parts list with all thumb nail.

with a special font on the fly. We would basically need a parts list with an extra column for the barcode.

I am trying to create a form, so that my designers can pick their parameters when they first start a new part.

1/8"
3/16"
1/4"

3/8"
7/16"

Is there any way to list all tapped hole features to an excel spread sheet so that i could then just sort and count and then be able to hilite the specific parts in inventor to find the length?

I'm trying to create a parts list that will show item numbers for the sub assemblies and the individual parts for each sub assembly. When I'm creating the parts list in the drawing, the option for "All Levels"is greyed out once I select my source assembly. How I can show this in a Parts list?

I have an assembly that I have the BOM property set to phantom. Consists of 7 parts, each have a bom property of purchased.
All parts are the same but cut to length in the shop. Parts list are based on parts only BOM. If I create a parts list based on just the assembly, I can group the items, they all have the same part number, and display the group participants, and the item numbers and everything works as expected.
If I use this assembly as a subassembly in a larger assembly and create a partslist with the same group keys, the subassembly does not show as a group, does not show group participants or corresponding item numbers.
What I'm trying to do is show total length of a product that we buy on a spool for this assembly. To do this I'm using substitution in the qty column. Most parts are purchased each, these are purchased by length. What would cause the parts list to display as a group in one list but not in the other?
I have a drawing detailing an assembly with a 3 sub- assemblies. Each sub-assembly has 4 parts. When I add a parts list only the 3 sub-assemblies are listed. Is there a way to generate a parts list with 12 parts?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been able to create an upright with slots and holes to the length of 29-1/4" and via two seperate cut extrusions cause the part to shorten using iParts. I was told that the Frame Generator uses the parameter of G_L to populate the new cut length for use with the parts list. I have been able to create a frame generated part and get the length to populate the parts list however I have not been able to get my upright cut length to show in my parts list.
I did create a new property in my parts list column chooser, my BOM is set to Phantom, my .ipt parameters has a user parameter of G_L/equation of Length which above is listed as 29.25 in. Every thing that I can think of is the same from my frame generated files to my upright files.

Styles in Inventor have always been confusing to me. I have ONE project file, ONE teplates folder, but TWO different drawing templates (one for single part drawings, one for assembly drawings). For simplicity sake, lets say the ONLY difference I want between the two drawing templates is the parts list. The assembly template parts list should have lets say one more column than the other.
I did what I thought should do it but it isn't working properly. What's the best way to accomplish this? Right now within the same style library I have two parts lists set up, and I have two "standards". The only difference between the two standards is which parts list box is checked on "available styles". When I change "object defaults" to onw parts list or the other, it changes that default for all drawing templates, not just the one I'm using.
I have one main assembly with two seperate sub assemblies in it. I need to make two drawings showing the installation of both sub assemblies (one drawing for each). I need to insert views of the main assembly into each drawing, showing the overall view of the install, but I need the balloons to represent the sub assembly BOM.
I tried making the sub assembly I'm not currently showing, Phantom, and I have a design view set up to hide the information of the sub that is not part of the current drawing. That seems to work fine for the first drawing, but when I change the BOM (of the main assembly) to suit the next drawing, it affects the first drawing. How can I use one main BOM to suit two different drawings, showing only certain components? Or can I "tell" the balloons which BOM to reference? (I have the BOM of the sub assemblies set up the way I want them as well)
I used to add some parts to CC in Inventor and also some profiles. Whenever I create an assembly I want these profiles I made myself to be counted in millimiteres, whereas it is counted in how many pieces of this long profile I used.
I want these custom made profiles to be counted same as standard pipes from CC- in millimiters.
I have what turns out to be the first parts list in three years where I need to sum the lengths of a couple items together to get a total length for that material in feet.
What do I need to do to get the two lines in the attached screenshot to sum their lengths together? I would be happy to add another column to the list for this, perhaps the "Unit Quantity" column where most everything is set to "Each" but the two lines shown are summed into a length in feet (or anything like that). How can I accomplish this?
