AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Sheet ILogic

Apr 19, 2013

have 2 questions

1.) If you look at the attached screenshot in the Edit Sheet form there is a sheet "Revision" input field is it possible to fill this out via iLogic?

2.) We have some custom E size sheets (height always 34in width varies 5ft, 6ft, and 8ft) when we select on of these sheet sizes that we created  it will display "Custom Size (inch)" when using the sheet property <sheet size> in the title block not the name of that we gave these sheets (Which creatively enough is "E-5ft", "E-6ft", and "E-8ft"). I thought I had this solved by doing this:

Dim oSheetSize As String
oSheetSize = ActiveSheet.Size
If oSheetSize = "Custom" Then
iProperties.Value("Custom", "SheetSize") = "E"
Else iProperties.Value("Custom", "SheetSize") = oSheetSize
End If

then change the titleblock sheet size field from sheet property <sheet size> to custom drawing properties <SheetSize> this all works great if there is only 1 sheet in the IDW where it fails is if there is more then one sheet.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Reference Drawing Sheet Number With ILogic?

Dec 11, 2012

How to reference the drawign sheet number using iLogic?  I see on the snippets on the side a way to reference the sheet name, but I only want the number.  To get the name it is ActiveSheet.Name, but ActiveSheet.Number does not work.  Getting the name give something like ASSM:1, so if there was a way to take that and subtract the colon and everything before it that would work also.  I am not a programmer, I've just taked some programs I found online and modified them a little to do what I want to do, but this is holding me back a bit.

Overall, I'm trying to modify the drawing view label to have a project number, referenced from the drawign iProperties, a view label, and sheet number, and then save that info in an iproperty of the part, and then reference that in the BOM so it automatically labels all of the views and fills out a column of the BOM to reference which page and view to find the parts of the assembly.  I have everything working except for the sheet number.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Accessing Sheet In Multiple Sheet Drawing

Apr 16, 2012

I have a dwg file with three sheets in, just default names, I can access sheets 2 and 3 but get the attached errors when trying to access sheet 1 form either sheet 2 or 3

This file was originally created in IV2009 I've had no problems then or with the various conversions of it.

It seems to be memory related so here's the sitrep as for memory 8GB DDR2 RAM, and Virtual Memory set at min of 8192MB and a Max of 16384MB, I did have it set a systems managed but that gave a warning of low virtual memory with almost every drawing file that I opened.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Change Sheet Name

Oct 31, 2013

I've seen snipppets of code to get the Sheet name but is there a way to set it via code? I'm thinking it might be useful to set the sheet names to the chosen sheet format (as opposed to just 'Sheet').

I'm sprucing up my drawing template...

Rule #1 is for selecting sheet format (which title block/sheet size / orientation)
Rule #2 is for setting iproperty values to populate the titleblock with info. (if required)
Rule #1 was based on code from S.Bixler & inventortrenches
Rule#2 was based on more code taken from here.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Custom Sheet Size Using ILogic

Jan 15, 2013

I made a form that allows the user to enter in a custom sheet size.  Using the API I am changing the Drawing Sheet Size Enumerator to the Custom Sheet size which allows the user to enter in custom values.  That part is all working fine.  My problem is that when a custom size is used in my title block it says that the size is "Custom Size (mm)".  I know that the API uses cm for the sheet size units so I have the code convert the values into cm. 

In the sheet settings window built into inventor it has the option for Custom Size (inches) and Custom Size (mm).  How do I change whether it is inches or mm?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Rule To Insert Sheet Metal Thickness

May 1, 2013

In my title block I have a material section that pulls to iProperties from the model

One is material, which displays the material used in the model

and the other is manually input by me in the comments section of the model, I typically only use this field for sheet metal description, example, .125 Sheet Metal,  this saves me from a drawing view to show thickness only.

In my sheet metal template I have checked the little box for the thickness model parameter so it will show up as a custom property - model.

So i can display the thickness parameter anytime the sheet metal base view is placed.

My issue is I want the thickness property to have the following with it "Sheet Metal"

But I only want this to appear if the base view is in fact sheet metal, all other parts and assemblies, this field would be blank,

So this is what I want when a sheet metal part is placed:

This is what I want to display when a part is placed:

This is what I get when anything is placed:

Sheet Metal shows up because:

I am looking for a Rule that will only apply <Thickness> Sheet Metal to my title block only if the base view is in fact a sheet metal part. Is this possible??

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Reposition Revision Table On Sheet Size Change

Sep 24, 2012

a customer has a title block with a revision table ( standard vault revision table)  add on top of it.

If you change the sheet size the revision table remains his position.

If found the way to reposition the table with a ilogic rule.:

'point afstand in cm
PointX=(ActiveSheet.Width/10)-13
PointY=5.5
'punt vanaf rechtonder gemeten in cm

[Code]....

This is working perfectly. But now the challange how to trigger this rule to run if you change the sheet size?

if tried:

trigger=Activesheet.size

or

to create a userparameter and added this line in my rule : Size=ActiveSheet.size, normaly is you change parameters it triggers the rule to rule. but both way didn't work.

Can event triggers from the API be used?  Do i need the "Onchange" event? Any example for a ilogic rule?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal ILogic Rule Not Executing On Non-rectangular Base Sketch?

Aug 5, 2013

I have a template that I have created, in it I have a rule that changes the stock number and description based on which sheet metal rule is selected.   The weird thing is it works correctly if the first sketch is a rectangle.  If you sketch a circular shape and make that the face it will not work.  It blanks out the values for the stock number and description.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Trigger In Drawing

Sep 18, 2013

I have a few assemblies setup that are controlled with a bunch of iLogic rules to modify all related parts when parameters are changed at the assembly level.  I also have an opening message that pops up when the assembly model is opened (After Open Document trigger) to tell people how to use the parameters to make modifications.

Now, when this assembly model is placed into a drawing I am getting random pop ups of the opening message when placing views of additional models in the same drawing.  If you open the drawing and try to place a base view of another model, Inventor stops to think for a minute or so before having the opening message of the iLogic controlled model pop up.  The only event trigger for this message is "After Open Document" and the model is not being opened; why it is being triggered in the drawing and/or how to make it stop?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Save Drawing As DWG

Apr 24, 2012

Is there a way in an inventor drawing rule to do a "save as" which saves the drawing as an Inventor dwg file rather than an AutoCAD dwg file?

The below saves as AutoCAD which is ok but I need the outputted drawing to be linked to the model. I don't want the code to save the entire assembly as this is done further down the line. I also don't want to save the current inventor dwg drawing from which the rule is run as this is just a template drawing.
 
ThisDoc.Document.SaveAs(ThisDoc.Path&"2D_DRAWINGS"&iProperties.Value("Custom", "Drawing No.")&" (Rev "&Parameter("BEAUFORT_ARRANGEMENT_3.iam.DRAWING_REVISION_NO")&")"&".DWG", True)

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Drawing Views Scale

Apr 18, 2013

I'm trying to put together some iLogic code to either check all the drawing views within a drawing sheet are all the same scale, or make the views all the same scale. These drawing sheets consist of a number of individual parts (they aren't projected views from a single part). 

This is for welded assemblies.  We are required to generate a profile drawing sheet outlining each part that makes up the assembly. We send these out as dwg files for laser cutting so its important that the views are all the same scale.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Check-in Drawing Into Vault

Jan 8, 2014

I'm wondering if it is possible to check-in drawing into vault using i-logic?

If you check-in a drawing into our vault, it automaticly exports a .dwf to a storage server. We also have a simple button for making .pdf of the drawing to sent to the customer.

What i want to ensure is that the .dwf file and the .pdf file are the same. So when i press "make a .pdf" the rule will save my document, make a .pdf and (if possible) check it into vault. So from that point the .pdf for the client and the .dwf on the server are the same.
