AutoCAD Inventor :: Auto Balloon Macro For Custom Sketched Symbols?

May 29, 2013

I'm trying to create a macro which will attach a custom sketched symbol with a leader to some specific parts in a view. By modifying some sample code I managed to create a macro which will attach the sketched symbol to the currently selected edge (see code below). However I would like to select the view and let the code cycle trough all the parts and check the filename or a custom iProperty. If the filename has a certain pattern or a specific custom iProperty exists it should add the sketched symbol. I don't really see how I should do this, I can get a reference to the selected view and as far as I can see I can use the referencedfiledescripter to open the assembly and cycle through the occurences. However I don't see how I can use this to add the sketched symbol to the occurence in the drawing view.
 
' Set a reference to the drawing document. ' This assumes a drawing document is active. Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument Set oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument ' Set a reference to the active sheet. Dim oActiveSheet As Sheet Set oActiveSheet = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet ' Set a reference to the drawing curve segment. ' This assumes that a drwaing curve is selected.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How Are Arrowhead Locations Calculated / When Using Auto-Balloon Command

Nov 13, 2012

How are arrowhead attachment locations calculated when using the Automatic Balloon command?  Arrowheads seem to attached to objects at rather strange places!

I normally use auto-ballooning to place balloons within a drawing and then "season to taste".  Is there a way to control how and where the arrowhead gets attached to an object?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Auto Cut Lines To Cropped View

Aug 23, 2012

I have several cropped views in an Inventor 2013 drawing. I was wondering if Inventor could auto add a cut line to the cropped edge of objects when creating these views or alternatively if I would have to manually add a cut line through the symbols library ?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - IDW View Constant Update?

Jul 25, 2013

We have views of a large system that will constantly stay in a "updating" mode.

However you can place another base view of the same system from a different perspective and that view will solve out.

In the attached image the view on the left will not finish updating while the view on the right solve out rather quickly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Balloon Renumbering Across Sheets

Jun 15, 2012

I am trying to modify the code Brian Ekins posted on Mod the Machine to renumber balloons across sheets. [uRL ....

It works great unless the item on the additional sheet is a sub-assembly.  I believe it is because PartDef is declared as a PartComponentDefinition and there is nothing in the code to handle an assembly. 

Dim partDef As PartComponentDefinition      
Set partDef = drawBOMRow.BOMRow.ComponentDefinitions.Item(1)      
partInfo(I - 1).ReferencedFile = partDef.Document.FullFileName

The Set partDef line was giving me a runtime error when it came to an assembly in the BOM until I added

"On Error Resume Next" at the start of the loop.

I tried changing the declaration to ComponentDefinition.  It compiled fine, but didn't do anything.  I think I'll have to add some duplicate code to handle an assembly in the BOM.  Is there a better way to do this?  Am I even on the right track?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Attaching Text To A Balloon?

Feb 5, 2008

How do I attach text to a balloon? For example, I want to add the text "2X" alongside the balloon to denote that there are 2 instances of this part.

I can't believe that you need to make a text box each and every time you need to do this! There has to be a simpler way.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Balloon Text Alignment

Oct 18, 2005

If a balloon style is set to "Linear" the text in that balloon is automatically left aligned. If a balloon style is set to "None" the text in that balloon is automatically center aligned.

Is it possible to create a balloon with the balloon style set to "None", and have the text left aligned in a drawing document. Typically the balloon text is more that one line . The new line in inserted by pressing ctrl+Enter in the override value of the balloon.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Store Information In A Balloon?

Nov 16, 2012

I'm using balloons to get information from parts, then writing that part info to a custom table.  I need to keep track of which balloon corresponds to which table row.

Is there some object/property of Balloon where I can store a single number or string?  I'm already using the value field, so that's unavailable to me.  

Also, one balloon corresponds to one table entry.  That means I cannot create a custom iProperty in the part the balloon is attached to since more than one balloon may reference the same part.

I have the Dimension Styles set up for each roof pitch, but need a macro to auto label the line instead of clicking each line individually. Also, I can't find a ROUNDUP feature in the Dimension Styles. I've got it to round to the nearest 2' but it won't go up....if it's 11' it goes to 10'...I need it to go to 12'.
