Apr 29, 2013

I have a drawing that can be used to manufacturing purpuses or to normal company ipt, iam, etc., and I want to when opening a new drawing configure it if the designer if it chooses yes in the msgbox change the title bock and the standards in the styles.

started the code like this:
 
Dim i As Stringi = MessageBox.Show("Vai efectuar o desenho de uma ferramenta ou de um elemento seu?", "Parts List", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1)If i = "6" ThenActiveSheet.TitleBlock = "Alualpha_Ferr"End If
 
 but it gives this error

The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))

AutoCAD Inventor :: Choose View To Populate Title Block?

Jun 20, 2013

Long short, we have dozens of drawings and the original base view was deleted, so the title block uses the next view placed to populate.  We would like to drop in a new view, and use that as the view the title block looks to.  The only way we've figured how to do this is to delete the other 8 or so views (that are already all detailed)., place the view we want to populate the title block, then redraw all the views we just deleted.

Is there an easier way to chose a new base/primary view for a drawing?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Retaining Title Block Prompted Entries When Changing Title Blocks

Apr 26, 2013

The title blocks that we use have prompted entries in them and I would like to find a way using iLogic to copy the entries from one title block to another within the same drawing; i.e.. if the user decides to change from an A2 to A1 drawing.

I already have an iLogic rule which allows the user to change the active border, title block and sheet size based on a form selection but would like it to capture the prompted entries already entered and re-use them after the change.

AutoCad 2D :: Setup Multiple Viewports On Title Block - Text And Dimensions In Annotative Style

Nov 28, 2012

I've completed my drawing (Autocad architectural 2012) and set-up my multiple view-ports (at 1:50 and 1:5 scale) on my title-block.

I'm now going to add my text and dimensions im model space....and that's when the problems start!

I've created text and dimensions in annotative style.

The issue I have is when I change annotation scale from 1:50 to 1:5 my text and dimensions in model space automatically changes (as can be seen on attachment) to a huge scale but is perfect in layout view for differing scales.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Style In Library Standard

Nov 6, 2013

How do I make a style in the library standard? I made new styles in the library for a revision table and parts list, but when placing them in an IDW I always get the standard tables.

It's not a big deal to change it in the format tab after placement, but when having 50+ sheets/daily its getting annoying.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Title Block C#

Oct 2, 2013

I am trying to replace the title block of the first sheet of the active drawing via C#. I currently am receiving the following error on the last line of The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG)).

Why the code below is throwing this error? I have tried multiple variations of the code below to no avail and I'm sure this is something minor that I am overlooking. The title block definition under Drawing Resources is replaced with no errors, the title block on Sheet 1 is deleted just fine, but I can't seem to add a Title Block back in!

How Documents are defined:

Inventor._DrawingDocument oDoc = getDoc();Inventor.DrawingDocument sourceDoc =(Drawing Document) instance.Documents. OpenWith Options(sPath, options, false); Find, copy, replace: TitleBlockDefinition tBlock = sourceDoc.TitleBlockDefinitions[blockList.SelectedItem.ToString()]; TitleBlockDefinition newBlock = tBlock.CopyTo(oDoc, true); oDoc.Sheets[1].TitleBlock.Delete(); oDoc.Sheets[1].AddTitleBlock(newBlock);

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Add In Title Block?

Jan 22, 2013

Is there an add in or something for faster type in the title block in a drawing? Name, title etc?

 Right now the author and date are automatically  but when i save the file to for example to "D1234 hammer" it becomes the part number.

I have to edit the title.

I want to save the file to "D1234 hammer" and the partnumber to be "D1234" and title "hammer".

IS there a add-in that I type the title and name and its auto fill the title block? Or do I have to create a custom title block so the drawing can understand to only to take the numbers from <part name> and the letters becomes <title>?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get New Title Block Into Old Drawing

Aug 17, 2012

We are going to be making a new title block and I have been looking at ways to get the new title block into the old drawings.  It looks like the Inventor Drawing and Resource Wizard is the way to go.

The steps seem pretty straight forward and simple but I am not getting the correct results.  For the source drawing I select my new title block and leave the boxes for borders, my new title block name, and sketched symbols checked.  I then pick my drawing I want to get the new title block in.  On the last step I can select Yes or No and get the same results.  When I reopen Inventor and the drawing it still has the old title block in it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Two Different Border And Title Block Colors

Feb 5, 2013

I use two different measuring system IMPERIAL and METRIC.

What I want is to be able tell at a glance, by having different color border and Title-block Text  is which one of the system of units I'm using

So what I'm wanting to do is create a Metric Sheet template with on color, Border, Title Block Text and a different color for the Imperial.

I've tried changing the color using the Style Center but that affects both templates, I've tried editing the title-block text saving the template but on opening it has changed back to the defaults set in the style settings and dose not hold those that I set.

What I don't what to be doing is changing them after opening, as at some stage I'll forget.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Title Block - Copyright Year

Sep 28, 2012

So, I am trying to add a copyright year to a title block in a drawing template file used through out my company. I want to base the year off of the creation date property - I am trying to find a way to truncate this property such that only the year is displayed. Ideally, any time the creation date property is changed, the copyright year will also update.

We are currently running Inventor 2010.Normally, I would just write an iLogic rule with an event trigger, but this would require everyone to install the iLogic addin which just won't happen.

Even easier, I could make a custom iProperty and just have people manually type in the year when they start a new drawing - this will be worst case scenario as a ton of people will forget and I'll just make more work for myself.I also have VBA code which is pretty simple:

Public Sub SetYear()
Dim oDoc As Document    
Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument      
Dim customPropSet, customPropSet2 As PropertySet    
Set customPropSet2 = oDoc.PropertySets.Item("Design Tracking Properties")    
   
[code]....

The issue would be getting this VBA code to trigger and to "stick" to the template file.I can just as easily write this code in VB.NET or C#, and go through the hassle of creating an add-in, but again, how would I get it to trigger and stick to the template file.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Title Block Customization

Jun 26, 2013

Earlier I`ve used a simple code from Rob Cohee to update the title blocks and it works like a charm, however, now I would like to try to kick it up a notch.

If (ThisDrawing.ModelDocument Is Nothing) Then ReturnmodelName = IO.Path.GetFileName(ThisDrawing.ModelDocument.FullFileName)iProperties.Value("Project", "Part Number") = iProperties.Value(modelName, "Project", "Part Number")iProperties.Value("Custom", "Client") = iProperties.Value(modelName, "Custom", "Client")

I`m working with several similar projects where the Inventor models and IDW`s is copied from one project to another. A typical project can consist of 50-75 drawings and the only properties needed to change is Client, project number and drawing number (consisting of the project number and a suffix, ex 123456789-125).

I would like to try to make an .ini file with these 3 properties in the root of the project folder so they can be changed and updated easily.
