I have created a new form using three fields, to show quantities, job no etc. and was wondering what code I need to use to be able to push enter after filling out a field and then jumping to the next field?
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to setup a custom form that matches my company's title block information. My desired end result is to eliminate the need to open the iproperties (some users find it confusing/inconvient). I have a seperate tab for the check/status information listed in the "status" tab of the iproperties. In the iproperties, these are activated and deactivated with a check box. When I add these properties to my form, I have the ability to open a calendar but I have no way of knowing if the date is activate or not.
I saw in another post, that a ticket was opened to added the material selection to the options in forms. Could this functionality be added as well?
How do I detect wich button the user pressed in the iLogic-form?
I can show it like this:
result=iLogicForm.ShowGlobal("MyForm", FormMode.Modal)
I guess that result is of type FormReturnValue - but I can't guess the qualifier (FormReturnValue.OK / FormReturnValue.OkBtn / ?)
Any way to modify a user form parameter's read only status using a rule?
I have a parameter that I want people to be able to edit when another parameter is set to true and to be locked if it's set to false. The only thing that comes to mind is have a rule that will just switch the value back automatically if the user changes it but it would be good if i could control the read only status.
I instal form SDK User Tools because I need in Inventor Drawing Tools (Revision cloud). I do this install like on website Autodesk show and I didn't get it on ribbon. I do also registry of this plugin but I also didn't get it.
I used Invenbtor 2013 with servce pack.
I have situation where a block is inserted in paperspace before a leader is to be added into modelspace. I need it to work like the "CHSPACE" command - it pauses and asks the user to activate a viewport before continuing.
How that pause until viewport is active is done?
Create a Form that can be sent to a customer as an email attachment. The customer must be able to Save and Open the Form with software that is available on most Windows computers. The customer should then be able to enter the requested information in the Form, Save the Form and then attach it to an email and return it to the sender.
I could achieve the above using MS Word. But it is a real pain to layout a complex Form using Word. I would much prefer to do this using DP6 as it is considerably easier to lay the Form out.
But... I simply cannot see a DP6 Export file-format that I could use to achieve this result.
After getting Vault installed on our server and successfully setting up users and connections, I used the Library Transfer Guide to move our Content Center (including custom) to the Vault. I then changed the Inventor Application Options -> Content Center -> Access Options to Autodesk Vault Server.
This seems to have worked, as I can Place from Content Center when in an assembly, and it is pulling standard content as well as our custom files properly from the vault. However, in the instructions that I used for the installlation, it was suggested to stick with a standard folder structure within the Vault, namely two Library Folders named 'Content Center Files' and 'Libraries' and also a regular folder named 'Designs'.
I created those folders prior to transferring the library, as I thought they would be populated with the standard/custom content. This was not the case and I am curious when these folders come into play? *they are empty*
Also, today I will be attempting to 'Check In' a project to the Vault that I recently completed; does this usually maintain structural relationships between files?
Would you recommend using a single project structure in vault for two people? It seems, since we won't be working on the same project at the same time, having a single project would not be relavant to our situation..

I am working on a form (global) and have added a picture with a parameter and a picture folder underneath. So that the picture displayed on my form will change depending on the parameter value.Here comes the trick. Only text parameters can be used!On the form editor only 'Text parameter' can be selected to drive the picture selection. I actually need an integer, so that i can use my User/Excel parameters from Inventor.
I can work this around with an iLogic rule to equal the value of my string Picture Parameter with the relevant integer Inventor parameter, but the rules need to be run before the pic and the form updates (by pressing the 'Apply' button at the bottom of the form and then the assy updates too. So this takes a couple of minutes)... whereas if it was an option on the form editor then the update would be instant without waiting for everything to update...
Is there a particular reason why the Picture Parameter only can be a text parameter?
After deleting some rips and corner seams on my model, I can no longer create rips, unfolds, or refolds. They all come up with the same message as shown in attached picture.

View 5 Replies View RelatedSomething was changed in my Inventor settings yesterday, and I have no idea what it was, or how to change it back.

It makes no sense you cannot enter the star value when animating a constraint. Every time I run the animation, Inventor changes the inital value, and the animation is ruined.
I need a angular displacement between 80 and 20 deg.I cannot enter the "80" value, Invenotor does it.
Is there a way you can animate a constraint the way you want instead the way inventor wants???
Im working on a program that checks out syncronizes some data with our erp system and then checkes in the files again to vault. all works fine but in vault all links to other files are gone? when i checkin the files from inventor manuel then the links are ok in vault. therefore i wonder if it is possible to run the vault checkin dialog "hidden" and just pass in some predifined options and checkin to vault.

I'm trying to enter a model parameter value with a VBA form, but I don't know which type of control to use neither how to write the code. I want to enter a number or a value with any control and use this value for modify a model parameter.
I have a simple code with a line:
oModelParams.Item("z").Value = 25
I want to make something like:
assuming that "TextBox1.Value" is a numeric value obtained with a control at the form
oModelParams.Item("z").Value = "TextBox1.Value"
how I can get a form onto the ribbon or create a custom Icon to run it.
I have read up on afew forums that VB needs to be used in order to achive this but I want to double check.
I dont have VB but if it is the only way to get this to work I will download it.

I have a ipt which is controlled via an ilogic form,this form is opened by ilogic code, which in turn is triggered when the ipt is opened.
my problem is when the part is placed within an assembly the said form is triggered and the same happens when the assembly is reopened!.... I would prefer if the form opened only when the ipt is opened or edited....
Is there a snippet of code for this? Or is it even possible?
I am creating a large form. The goal of the form means I am unable to break it down into smaller forms as there is a great deal of interaction between all levels of the form.
One of my first fields is a multi-value field (Foundation Type) with four options (None, Slab, Piers, Wall). Three of those options have a group of fields lower in the form with between 1 and 5 fields.
(Multi:Value Option: Example of fields specific to that option)
Slab: Thickness, Edge Depth, Edge Width
Piers: Diameter, Depth.Offset
Wall: Footing (T/F), Depth, Width,
I currently disable all of the groups of fields that are not part of the active option in the primary multi-value field throught the (Enabling Paramter Name) option with a rule. This keeps the user from entering values that affect a Foundation Type that is not currently active, but the disabled fields take up a lot of room on my form and may confuse end user less familiar with the system,
The group function in the form has a minimize toggle next to the group name, but the Form Editor does not show any options to manipulate this toggle. Is there a way to automatically toggle this minimize/maximize function through a rule or other means)? Or are there any other means of hiding form fields that are not currently enabled?
I have the following problem:
I have created a form in which I need to see the volume value. For that I created a User Parameter that is set to be equal with part's volume:
Volume=iProperties.Volume
What I don't like is that the precision for the parameter is too long and I can't change it. I changed the precision in Document Settings and also for the parameter itself in the Parameters window, but these changed don't affect what is the form.
Why can't you show the file name on a form (without using iLogic to link it to a property)?
