AutoCAD Inventor :: Example Of ILogic In Creating Stairs
Jan 1, 2013
Any good example of ILogic in creating stairs? We generate many different widths, lengths and heights? Been trying to utilize iLogic to make all the different types more easy to create from the start. Have set angle of stringers and certain widths of treads but cannot figure out my rules on the number of treads needed per the length of my always changing stringer lengths. Stumped on how to take a certain length (parameter) and divide it up equally. Top tread flush with top of horizontal stringer and with bottom tread having a minimum and or maximum height the from floor.

I created a iLogic routine to generate a STL file if the iProperty "Printed Part" is set to YES.
I am getting an error when Ln33 oTranslator.SaveCopyAs(oDocument, oContext, oOptions, oData) is executed.
If iProperties.Value("Custom", "Printed Part") = False Then 'False = "NO"ReturnElseMsgBox ("Selected to output STL for printing" & vbCrLf & "Disable by setting the custom iProperty:Printed Part to NO")End If'Create _OUTPUTS directoryoPath = ThisDoc.PathoFolder

I'm new to inventor and I need to be able to create coppies of a part in my assembly that are uniquely identified so they can be individually changed. I see that this can be done through the ribbon with the "Place iLogic Component" button, but is it possible to do this from the API in a rule?
I am using inventor 2012 pro.

I kept the code simple
fname = ThisDoc.FileName(False) 'without extension fpath = ThisDoc.PathoPartDocPath = fpath+""+fname+".ipt"oPartDoc = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(oPartDocPath, False)oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument oSheet = oDrawDoc.Sheets.Item(1)oTG = ThisApplication.TransientGeometryoPoint1 = oTG.CreatePoint2d(5, 5)oBaseView = oSheet.DrawingViews.AddBaseView(oPartDoc, oPoint1, DrawingViewScale, kFrontViewOrientation, kHiddenLineDrawingViewStyle, "Default")
it is a local rule in an idw file that has been saved with an ipt file of the same name saved in the same directory. Now I get the most useless error message ever devised by manking
"The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))"

I'm new in use of iLogic and tried to use it by myself (and internet). But I have some difficulties.
Here is the open point, I wold like to create an assemblies with different length (and also some different part inside).
So I made some iLogic rules to make a configuration of my .iam with length selection.
I made rules to show or hide parts with is linked to the proper length.
I made rules to switch from a positional representation to another one and do the same for level of details representation and for view representation.
All is good in my .iam.
My problem is comming now. When I would like to put my .iam in a .idw in several views (corresponding to different length), my views are the all the same. I can't see one length per view even if I select the proper representation, the proper position and the proper level of detail.
At the end, all this work is to have all views length to be able to make in one drawing all length block in autocad.

Long time Autocad user but now am moving most of my work across to Autodesk Inventor.
Some of the work I do is with companies that their parts are standard components that will not change.
So I am using Inventor to automate the drawings based on their requirements. For example if it needs to be 4m high. then to use 2 x 2m sections. Currently I have create different assemblies of the different potential heights that I can switch between using ilogic but I need to be able to shift the top truss arch depending on how high the truss is.

Im quite new to customizing inventor and have been playing around with I-logic. I can get I-logic to enter values into existing ipt paramaters when run from a rule within the idw. I can also get I-logic to create a custom Paramater within the ipt using some copied API code, however I dont know my way around API at all yet. So...
I was wondering if it was possible to create a custom part parameter from an ilogic rule run in an idw with that ipt featured?

So, In this drawing, I have 2 blocks. Stair, and stair section. The one I'm working on is stair section.
What I have is the base of a block that will automatically add steps to the desired height, at a 7" rise and 8" run. I have the array function working correctly. It is inserting correctly, etc.
What I'd like to do is to be able to stretch the frame by typing in the final height of the stairs, and have the length and treads adjust as needed. I'm sure that there is something in the xy parameter actions that I can use for this, I just don't know what it is.

I wonder how do you create a concrete construction under the stairs?
The way ACA creates stairs looks like just a top layer (tiles or wood panels), but I want to put those tiles on a concrete construction.

NO, I don't have any problem with making a helical hand rail along the circumference of a spiral stairway (or helical stair stringer)!
My only problem is that the method which gives the best visual results (viz. extrude or sweep circle or region along spline) will give a "HEAVY" solid model that HINDERS the performance of AUTOCAD.
Therefore I mostly use the extrusion along a 3D-polyline that gives a a lighter model but less nice visual results (especially when using flatshot for 2D model "representation").
Can I set some system parameters that increase the performance when extrude or sweep along a spline ?
Standard I use a lot of blocks to increase the 3D perfomance of AUTOCAD, this however is not possible when a visual continuous hand rail is preferred.

I'm trying to use iLogic Design Copy to copy an assembly and all its associated parts to another directory. The assembly contains content center parts. Inventor warns me that the destination file of one of the CC parts (and 18 others) will be overwritten. When I go ahead and copy anyway, the copying process stops at that specific CC part. The Design Copy Progress dialog box states there is an error copying that CC part. When I close the Design Copy Progress dialog box, Inventor crashes.
The error copying the CC part: I'm allowed to use content center parts in iLogic Design Copied stuff, right? I searched some related topics and I'm under the impression that Inventor keeps the CC parts in its own directory and shouldn't be trying to overwrite them.

Just learning 2D CAD and trying to draw a cross section of a timber winder stairs as the strings change angle (I think) at the winder section. Looking at 3nr winding steps.
Setting out a standard stairs is okay, so I have the floor to floor height.

I am doing a tie rod the issue I have is when the length is between 2.001 and 2.250 we would drill thru all but only tap the ends .750 deep. If the part is 2.000 would would drill and tap thru in one step and not have to rotate the part in the lathe.
How do I get ilogic to understand if my number is between this 2.001 and 2.250 to lengthen the drill length parameter?Or add a mid plane cut? ( trying now code below reflects this try)
Not sure what way I want yet but I just can't seem to find a snippet or code to do this. I tried to add a list in the parameters for it to read but seems to do nothing.
If LENGTH <= "2" ThenFeature.IsActive("Thru_All") = TrueFeature.IsActive("Hole_A") = FalseFeature.IsActive("Hole_B") = FalseiProperties.Value("Project", "Description") = "RETURN ROLLER SHAFT, " & iProperties.Value("Custom", "DIAM") & " Ø S/S, TAP THRU 3/8-16, " & iProperties.Value("Custom", "LENGTH") & " LONG"ElseFeature.IsActive("Thru_All") = FalseFeature.IsActive("Hole_A") = TrueFeature.IsActive("Hole_B") = TrueiProperties.Value("Project", "Description") = "RETURN ROLLER SHAFT, " & iProperties.Value("Custom", "DIAM") & " Ø S/S, TAP BOTH ENDS 3/8-16, " & iProperties.Value("Custom", "LENGTH") & " LONG"End IfIf LENGTH = (My_List) ThenFeature.IsActive("Mid_Cut") = TrueElse Feature.IsActive("Mid_Cut") = FalseEnd If

What I am trying to do is insert a part into an assembly file using iLogic. I basically want to mimic Inventor’s “Place” command using ilogic, maybe something like this:
oPath = ThisDoc.Path & ""
oFile = "File.ipt"
Component.Place(oPath & oFile, False)

I have an external ilogic rule that creates a set of DWF drawings for all parts and subassemblies (as long as the idw files exist) within and including a main assembly.
I would like to merge all the DWF drawings of the sub assemblies and component parts into the DWF of the main assembly. Is there a method within DWFAddIn that will allow me to merge the files? Is there another way that I can merge the DWF files using the same ilogic rule (one rule to create and merge all DWF's together?)

I´ve found some iLogic code to print a drawing to a PDF document. After some minor modifications it works just fine, but I would like to add some code which allows med to set PDF properties (such as "title", "author", etc.) with values from iProperties. How can I do that? Is it possible? (I'm new to iLogic).

I use simple set of iLogic rules to manage product configuration through the assembly LOD. Assembly is really simple not more then 30-50 parts. Still I manage to crush Inventor fairly often. Some days 5 and more crashes! Several times sent crash report to AutoDesk for no joy. Never got any feedback.
I am just getting an impression that Inventor does not like LOD manipulated with iLogic for some or the other reason.

I am slowly learning about ilogic, and have created parts and assemblies that are run by rules. My next question is, what exactly can ilogic do for drawings? I've looked at the wikihelp, but I am not a natural at programming and I need more than a list of functions with brief descriptions to get me started.
I'm looking for code snippets, other discussions, tips, tricks, and/or tutorials to get info what I can do with ilogic and the API that can automate parts of the drawing process.

I have been unable to find any code to sort the BOM, there are lots of snippets to sort and modify the Parts list.
How to sort the Assembly BOM?
Sort parameters:
PARTS Only
"BOM Structure"
then by
Custom Parameter "TYPE"
Then By
Part Number
Then "Renumber" starting at 1

I made a 3D model with ilogic to control features to be suppressed or compressed. Because there are lot of features need to do so (need almost 4 to 5 min.) , when I run the rules, it came "Rule timeout" issue as pictures.
I used:
Feature.IsActive (myFeature) = status
to control the feature be suppressed or unsuppressed .
