AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Pattern ILogic In Assembly
May 10, 2012Change pattern ilogic. How do you change the distance and quantity in an assembly with ilogic?
It is simple in a part but in an assembly the parameters and equations do show.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Toggle Visibility For Item In Assembly Pattern
Jan 30, 2013I have a subassembly that has been patterned.
I need to toggle the visibility of a part in that subassembly in each pattern element.
How do I refer to the part?
I have declared an object for my pattern, and can toggle the suppression on any element.
But I need to get at an individual component inside the element.
I've been trying something like this:
oPattern.OccurrencePatternElements.Item(X).Component.Visible("Valance Jig Frame - 1in:1") = False
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Rule Surface Flat Pattern Area From Assembly File
Oct 16, 2013I created an iLogic rule that allows in a sheet metal part to the informations Length, widht and area of a flat pattern. This rule run and the iproerties are created (see attachment file).
Now, I will run this rule from an assembly file to create automatically, in all sheet metal components, theses iproperties.
Is it possible ? what must I change in this rule ?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Part By ILogic In Assembly?
Jul 25, 2012Before using iLogic, I created lot of iAssembly and iPart. I could change iPart factory member when I need in iAssembly.Now, I want to move everything to iLogic.
how could I change the part by iLogic code?
For example:
I generated "Part1.ipt" and "Part2.ipt",...... (I have hundred of member)
In my assembly, sometimes, I need use Part1.ipt, sometimes I need use Part2.ipt.
Which is the iLogic Code I should to use?

Dec 12, 2012I'm configuring a band with different supports. Each support is configured with a range; 600-900, 900-1200, 1200-1500 etc. those ranges can be adjust by 50mm and those steps are specified by the pos reps (see attached image).
All the different supports are put in the top assembly and in this assembly I want to switch between the positional representations. I tried to use:
ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition.RepresentationsManager.PositionalRepresentations("MyPosRep").Activate
But it won't work. I guess I have to replace "ComponentDefinition" in one way or another to the component name, but I don't know how.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Change BOM Structure Of Component Within Assembly Using ILogic
Nov 22, 2011I have a wall of frames, if you will, and some frames within this wall are different sizes. When doing the BOM, I want to be able to combine anything that has the same stock number as well as the same cut length. The only way I have thought to do this so far is to cycle through each stock number and if the cut length is the same, I override the quantity of one and change the BOM Structure of the other to "Reference".
How can I change the BOM Structure to reference without selecting the part or going through the BOM Editor? Is there some VBA code I could utilize? I am striking out by solely using iLogic.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Snippet - Change Hatch Pattern In Section Of Specific Material In IDW
Dec 13, 2012I am completely new to ilogic but would like to make a rule in my idw file that change the hatch pattern in a section of a specific material.
Short Version:
I have an aluminum extrusion part. Material is set to Aluminum-6061. In any section view of this part I want the hatch to be ANSI 31 with a rotation of 45 degrees and a scale of .02 How do I do this?
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Rule For Each Part In Assembly To Change Part Parameter
Apr 1, 2013I`m looking for the iLogic code that can change one parameter (user defined) for each (ipt) part in assembly (iam)
The one below doesn`t work.
Sub Main Dim oApp As Inventor.Application = ThisApplication Dim oAssy As Inventor.AssemblyDocument = oApp.ActiveDocument For Each oSubDoc as Inventor.Document In oAssy.AllReferencedDocuments On Error Resume Next Parameter(oSubDoc, "FH") = 15.26 Next End Sub
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Assembly Has Double User Request At Inserting In Assembly
Sep 18, 2012We have an iLogic assembly with to parts in it. Maybe to cylindrical parts. The iLogic rules should do the following.
1. Start a Rule after open document.
2. This Rule starts a Rule in the first cylindrical component.
3. This Rule ask the user for a diameter.
4. The assembly gives this new parameter value to the second component
5. Then the assembly calls another rule in the second component to change it with the new parameter
Everything is working fine when the following combinations are taking place:
1. I open up the assembly out of vault or from a local drive or an accessible server drive
2. I insert the assembly as sub assembly in another assembly from a local drive or an accessible server drive
It don't work with the following situation:
- I insert the assembly as sub assembly in another assembly out of vault
Then the user becomes the dialog "Choose a diameter" twice.
I don't know why, but I have the idea it has something to do with the functionality of inventor to insert a component more than once. If you insert a component in an assembly Inventor gives you the opportunity to add more than one occurence after each other.
change that behaviour? Maybe a switch to change that inventor "add more than one occurence" behaviour.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Translate Assembly Component Using ILogic / Offset From Parent Assembly Origin
Nov 9, 2011I want to be able to control the location/position of a component in an assembly. This is easy enough through the iProperties/Occurrence tab and then adjust the location of the X,Y, and Z offsets. Is this possible using iLogic? I have been unable to find a function to access via iLogic. Ultimately I am trying to translate a component about an axis not a pattern.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Pattern Controlled With ILogic
Jan 8, 2013I have a pattern of holes (exactly 3) on an object and when the object height changes so does the pattern base on height. My issue is that i need to create a rule or code that ensures that apart from the first hole (which is fixed), the remaining two holes are at a location that is divisible by 6. The reason being that this is a sheet metal part and our punch press has a template for aligning punches at every 6 IN.
We are using iLogic to automate some of our designs and the code is needed to eliminate having to worry if the punches are at the correct location for faster production.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Pattern Visibility With ILogic
Oct 11, 2011I've noticed that one can turn off the visibility of an entire component pattern by manually right-clicking the pattern in the browser and unchecking "Visibility". However, when one tries to automate this process with the following code, only the first element of the pattern is made invisible.
Component.InventorComponent("Pattern1").Visible = False
Is there a better way to do this, or will I be forced to develop a "workaround" like first changing the number of elements to 1?
I've been desperately trying to find a way to "turn off" unneeded assembly components without iAssemblies or LOD's, but Inventor always finds a way to stop me. This workflow of turning off visibility and setting BOM status to "Reference" would work if only I can make patterns invisible, also.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't See Pattern In Assembly

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Set Pattern Components To Reference
Sep 17, 2012I have a pattern of reference components, but the quantity of the pattern can change based on certain criteria. When the quantity increases or decreases, I need each pattern element to have its BOM structure set to reference.
The problem is, even if the original pattern element is set to reference, each subsequent element comes in as normal. This causes the BOM quantities for that component to be reported incorrectly in higher assemblies.
Is there some iLogic or VBA code that will automatically set each component in a pattern to BOM structure "Reference", even if the pattern quantity changes?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Dragging Pattern In Sub-assembly?
Jun 29, 2013I have a realy big assembly.
but I have to creat sub-assemblys.
I just place empty sub-assemblys in the big assembly,
drag and drop the specific parts i want the sub-assemblys.
But is there a way to drag and drop Patterns too?
Inventor is always priventing me to do so.
So i destroy the Patterns, drag and drop the specific part that made the Pattern,
and re-creat the Pattern in the sub-assembly.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Delete A Suppressed Component Pattern

Dim oComp As ComponentOccurrenceDim oComps As ComponentOccurrencesoComps = ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinition.OccurrencesFor Each oComp In oCompsIf Component.IsActive(oComp.Name) = False Then oComp.DeleteNext
Code works fine if there are single instances of the part. It throws a error when you have a suppressed pattern.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Suppress Pattern Element Using Ilogic

I can of course suppress the part within the element but then it doesn't update the BOM.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Set Pattern Parts To BOM Reference & Default
Oct 3, 2013I made a flanged connection using I logic. Very simple Tube + Flange + Gasket + Blind flange + Bolting.Then I tried to write some ilogic rule to have Blind flange on / off when needed, hence the Gasket & Bolting also need to be off. Like in these images:
That works fine visually, but I also want the BOM to be set accordingly. For the Blind flange & Gasket my BOM is OK. But for my bolting the BOM is not OK. I tried to set the BOM structure the same way as the visibility but that failed. It only subtracted 1 bolt from my list (see code)
If Blindflange_status = 0 Then 'Bolting offComponent.InventorComponent("Bolting:1").BOMStructure = BOMStructureEnum.kReferenceBOMStructure 'Sets BOM Structure to Reference (Remove from BOM)Component.Visible("Bolting:1") = FalseElse 'Bolting onComponent.InventorComponent("Bolting:1").BOMStructure = BOMStructureEnum.kDefaultBOMStructure 'Sets BOM Structure to Reference (Remove from BOM)Component.Visible("Bolting:1") = TrueEnd If

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - How To Sum A Property Of All Sub Assembly
Oct 26, 2012I got here on in my templates, two types of weight - net and gross. I've changed the main property MASS of each PART to be the GROSS weight, so when i have one assembly i always get the total gross weight.
And when i wanna get the NET, I open the BOM, show the proper column with this net weight and then export do XLS to sum all of then..
Now the doubt is, to get the things easier, is there a way to put some code in the assemblies, that could sum all the properties "X" from each part and sub assembly to get the total net weight ?
