AutoCAD Inventor :: Default Value Multivalue Setlist
Jan 3, 2012I've created a setlist with the following ilogic
MultiValue.Setlist("Dnr",1,2,3,4,5)
Is it possible to set a default value for "Dnr", for example Dnr = 3.

How to populate an Inventor Multivalue PARAMETER using a For cycle in iLogic according to a variable index corresponding to a different number of array items?
for example:
i grab some data from a Rule and populate an Arraylist variable. I trace the number of instances using a counter. after the data acquisition I want to populate the Multivalue Parameter with the acquired values.
No problem browsing the Arraylist parameter: MyArraylist.(Index)... but what about the Multivalue parameter?
the MultiValue.SetList("Multivalue Parameter", Value 1, Value 2, ... , Value N) provide a defined number of data and cannot be set dynamically according to an Index.
I'm writing an input check function (check certain inputs to be positive, or within a certain range). I'm a mechanical engineer with basic coding experience, mostly with basic matlab experience (some c++), so I don't fully understand VB structure, classes, objects, etc.
I'm giving my function a mutlivalue list of the names of parameters, converting to an ArrayList, then using 'For Every Item" in array list If>my condition>then display input box. And I have it working, but probably not the "proper" way, though if it works, it works. My real question is if I can use a multivalue list of parameter names and create a sister MV list that contains the parameter values. Currently I have to hard code a MV list with quotes aorund the names, and one without quotes. I've played around with various ways of using multivalue.set/setlist, val(), CDblAny() and other functions, but always end up with either class mismatches, an MV list with a single evaluated parameter, or an exact duplicate of the original paramter name MV list.

I have the following rule:
If OD=900 mm And Filter_Type = "Aerob" ThenMultiValue.SetList("FilterSize", 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5)End IfIf OD=900 mm And Filter_Type = "Donaldson DLM" ThenMultiValue.SetList("FilterSize", V3/7S, V4/7S, V8/7S)End If
For first condition everything is ok. But when the second one is valid it gives error:
Conversion from string "V3/7" to type 'Double' is not valid.
Maybe I should add that the parameter "FilterSize" was made as Text and multi-value.

I have a form with a multi value selection containing name vaules from an iPart.
I want to make a selection from the field in my form and swap out my iPart in the assembly for my selection.
I thought that something like:
Dim iFactory As String
MulitValue.SetListInComponent ("FileName:1", "Param name", "list of params.......")
Parameter("FileName:1", Param name") = "PK 407" 'could be any thing selected from the list of params..
iFactory=Param name
iPart.ChangeRow("iPart Factory File Name:1", iFactory)
Such that the part would be swaped out for what ever Param name = as a result of user selection.
I get the following error from this: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I try to filter an Excel List and therby fill certain Multivalue Parameters with the filtered data.
The filter works fine an provides me a string looking like the sytax for the MULTIVALUE.SETLIST command.
B6string = FilterReturn & Chr(130) & B6String = 75‚80‚250‚65‚45‚250
Unfortunatly this string gets exactly as ONE entry in the Parameters Value listing !
MultiValue.SetList("B6_Lochbild_Länge", B6String)
I also tried
MultiValue.List("B6_Lochbild_Länge") = New Integer () {B6String}
and also
B6string = Chr(148) & FilterReturn & Chr(148) & Chr(130) & B6String
with the same effect !
I have a MultiValue Parameter that I want to populate using a named range from an embedded excel spreadsheet. I would like an iLogic solution if possible because I need other people to be able to understand the code without too much difficulty.
One of the sample snippets given allows access but not if the excel file is embedded.
'GoExcel.NamedRangeValue("Part_Width")
The code below works but not when using a named range.
' Load bearing housing typesMultiValue.List("parameter1") = GoExcel.CellValues("A1","A20")
Is there something I'm missing? I was hoping to use something like below
' Populate MultiValue Parameter from excelMultiValue.List("parameter1") = GoExcel.CellValues("3rd Party:Embedding 4", "Sheet", "myNamedRange")
Our school rercently updated to Inventor 2014, When working starting a new assembly we seslect the standard mm ipt icon, however as soon as you create a new compont it defaults to inches, we can change the units using styles editor, but this only changes this componont when you create another part it also defaults to inches.
Can you change the setup so that it will always be in mm.
There is a bug in inventor 2012, where the default dxf version does not apply. It's not a huge issue, but it's quite annoying. Basically, when saving a dxf, I need to change the dxf version each time, regardless of what the default version is (which I've set to 2004). In order to import the files into my cam software (for CNC), it needs to be the Autocad 2004 DXF, so every time I need to save a dxf, I need to go to options and press finish.

I have the default border set in all my templates but I want to add an outside border to the default border (so everything is ultimately enclosed in a large box). How can I add that to the default? I see where I can define a new border but I can't have two borders on the same drawing so how do I combine them? I want to keep the existing "smart" default border that lets me choose how many zones etc.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a question about creating a drawing out of a model in Inventor 2013.
After selecting Base View it opens the Drawing View GUI, with the 3 tabs: Component, Model State, and Display Options.
Being fairly new to Inventor (and trying to learn as I go) I started looking through these tabs and discovered the All Model Dimensions check box in the Display Options tab. Seeing that it automatically dimensions the part when it is brought into the paperspace, I am wondering if there is any way to change the default dimension style for this choice from string to ordinate?
I created a new dimension style named Feet-mm. How can I get this new dimension style to be by default?
Instead of having to select the new style each time .
Is it possible to set the default tolerance of a part via the API? If so ,How? Also, how would I ensure that those values are used in the drawing dimensions. I don't see any link to the values that I put into the model and the dimensions in the drawing.

I actually have two separate but related issues.
The place component button on the ribbon seems to have inconsistent behavior. When using the drop down to place components from content center or Vault, sometimes the ribbon button will be "sticky" and remember my selection for the next component and sometimes it will revert to the default place from local. Is there any way to configure Inventor to treat Place from Vault as the default behavior? Probably about 75% of the time I am placing components from Vault; having to crank through extra clicks to get to Vault is a waste of time.
I created a copy of one of the standard styles, saved it but can not find an option "set as current" so I can save the template with that set up.

Is it possible to change Active Object Defaults Style by VBA code (see picture below)?
I am trying to change Object Defaults in order to temporarily switch style which use layers with different line weights, and than switch it back. I am new to VBA so I am not sure if I am not trying to do something what is impossible.
When I try to do a make components I get this error "Could not open default template file." All the Standard.xxx files are the designated folder and named appropriately. Plus I just used this command earlier today. I did do a "rebuild all" but I'm not 100% sure the problem came directly after that.

I need to "Programatically", using Visual Studio, set the default printers paper size to either "A4" or "A3".
I have the following code that gets the required paper size ("A4" or "A3") from the registry and checks that the default printer supports "A3". If it does I want to set the paper size to "A3".
Here is my code so far.
Imports Microsoft.Win32
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim SetPaperSize As String
Dim PrinterPaperSize As String
SetPaperSize = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMechTools", "Printer Paper Size", "0")
For Counter = 0 To PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes.Count
PrinterPaperSize = PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes.Item(Counter).PaperName
If PrinterPaperSize = SetPaperSize Then
' MsgBox(SetPaperSize) HERE IS WHERE I NEED THE CODE TO SET THE PAPER SIZE
Exit For
End If
Next
End
End Sub
End Class
Somewhere in Inventor to override the default size when creating holes? I need to change the size of 3 mm to 4.2 mm.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI wanted to rename one of the default layer, "Visible," to "CUT" since that's what our plasma cutter looks for.
However, I created a copy of Visible named CUT. Now when I open a new drawing, I get the usual, "The following definitions in template Blah differ from the definitions in the style library..."
I know I could update each template, but I'd rather just delete the copied layer in the styles library. However, I don't see how. Any tips on removing my extra layer with out starting from scratch? Or how to rename a default layer?
One of our employees is having an issue where his project file keeps reverting back to a default setup and his changes are being lost. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI know there's the setting in the Tools/Application Options/File dialogue that allows you to set a system wide setting of which LOD that opens each time you activate an assembly.
But what about a file specific setting where you are able to set a specific LOD that always opens for that specific assembly file? Or will that conflict with the system wide settings?
Granted, I know Inventor will open the last saved LOD (based on that system wide setting), but my client has users that, for a lack of better terms, are not paying attention or being aware of what LOD they are opening and thus editing the wrong LOD, etc.
We have a problem whereby our Templates revert back to a Default state. This is totally random.
One operator can create a drawing with the correct template loading up, and seconds later another operator will report that an old 'Inventor' default template has loaded up. On investigation it appears all templates marked as "standard" revert back to older versions.
I have made the Templates read only, but the problem still persists.

I received a rather large assembly file from a client that was done in Pro E. I was wondering if it is possible to change the entire assembly from Default material to steel without having to go into each individual part and changing its material manually (which could take several hours) I am using INV 2012 Pro with SP1 installed.
