AutoCAD Inventor :: Export Structured BOM View With All Levels
Dec 14, 2012
I am looking for a way to export the structured BOMview from Inventor to either Excel or Word. That’s all good and I can do that but I struggle to find a way to include “All Levels” of the structured BOM view. At the moment I use a “For Each item in BOMview” loop to cycle through the BOMView items.
I have also set the StructuredViewFirstLevelOnly property to False. The For Each loop does not pick up any items inside sub-assemblies.
What would be a nice way to drill down and get an item output like this:
1
2
2.1
2.1
3
4
5
5.1
5.2
Etc.

I'm trying to sort a structured Bom View through .Net Api in Inventor 2012. I'm using Sort method of BOM View object. I don't get any error but BOM isn't changed after this call.
I've tried :
oBv.Sort("Item") or oBv.Sort("Item", False)
oBv.Sort("Part Number") or oBv.Sort("Part Number", False)

I want to place a "Parts Only" BOM view of my Parts List. In the Parts List dialoge box, when view or document is selected, BOM View grays out and defaults to "Structured". This issue is new to my work station and is not an issue to the other stations. Why? How can I fix?

Been working over an idw MANY times due to project lag.Today I opened it up and tried adding balloons to an already ballooned assembly.
The parts list has not changed, and is "structured".But, if I try adding balloons, they tag each part, not the entire assembly.
Also, I verified this by trying to add another parts list, which defaults to "parts only".
I can't show my data set, b/c it's HUGE, plus it's proprietary.

I need to export our BOMs from inventor into a csv file that can be loaded into our ERP system. All of that code is working great and the help files were useful in getting this completed. However it only will work if the assembly model is in the master level of detail!! This is not good at all since the only reason we use levels of detail is becasue our main level assemblys are 1000+ comp and our computers cant function with these levels of models in the master level of detail!! Is there anyway around this?

I am iterating through a multi-level structured BOMView and checking to see if the component occurrences) corresponding to each BOMRow are visible or not. It seems that only assemblies (and sub-assemblies) have valid occurrences where I can check the Visible property. All parts are skipped (returns False). My code is below:
Private Function ItemIsVisible(ByRef bomRow As Inventor.BOMRow) As Boolean Try Dim cDef As ComponentDefinition Dim cOcc As Component Occurrence For Each cDef In bomRow.ComponentDefinitionsFor Each cOcc In cDef.Occurrences If cOcc.Visible Then Return True Next cOcc Next cDef Return False Catch ex As ExceptionReturn False End Try

I have a problem with Bill Of Materials in drawings.
I want to show a structured list of the top level components in this general arrangement. But whenever i select a view for inventor to create the table it only gives me to option for 'Components Only.'
I have edited the assembly and switched off the 'Components only' option in the IAM, but it still will only let me put a parts only BOM into the drawing. I have right clicked the node in the IDW browser and selected 'bill of materials' and here i have also switched off 'parts only' but still the same.
How do i get a top level BOM into my drawing?

I just started aca12 today and i have a substantial query:
i've set up my project and levels. i have -1, 0, +1 levels with certain thickness each. i've noticed that the levels are separate dwg files. and each of them has 0.00 elevation for walls and elements that i put in.
a. now, i'd like to know how to put all the levels together, say, in 1 single display, so that i can make 3d view of the whole building?
b. btw the level names can be different from constructs' names, am i right?
c. why when i choose ,,copy constructs to levels'' nothing happens on those levels. i don't see any new elements there? instead of them i get 3 copies of the same level, like ground floor (1) ground floor(2) etc.

I;m trying to setup linked files in max from AutoCAD Architecture 2013. However, for each file attached the levels of the project from ACA are not recognized in MAX - all the levels are stacked ontop of eachother in the same place. I did not see an option in the presets for MAX to understand this.

I'm currently Building a Library Technology Hub that has 3 story atrium. I'm trying to create a 3d camera view that shows the multiple levels that open to the atrium. However, only the 1st floor and mezanine floor (within 1st floor ceiling heights) are in my 3d view. The rendred view shows as if I have a solid ceiling across the entire 1st floor. I am almost positive that this is an issue with my camera settings since my 2nd and 3rd floors are cut around the atrium opening. I have clicked on almost every option in my properties menu and am at a loss!
Just btw, I'm an intermediate level, self-taught revit user (I have used it on a daily basis for about a year now). I'm no guru, but I'm quite savvy on making things work like I want them to.
I have attached a test render of the space. the "ceiling" should be open above my mezanine, and extend to desk at the right and the lounge seating at the left. However, it has rendered as a single plane.

Is it possible to use the 'Link Levels of Detail' command via the API ?
I can activate the command by using the CommandManager
oContDef = ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("AssemblyBonusTools_LinkLODsCmd")oContDef.Execute
But the command then requires a UI selection - I want to select the iLogic LOD.
I've tried using the CommandManager.PostPrivateEvent but to no avail.

I'm trying to create a parts list that will show item numbers for the sub assemblies and the individual parts for each sub assembly. When I'm creating the parts list in the drawing, the option for "All Levels"is greyed out once I select my source assembly. How I can show this in a Parts list?

I've assembly with multiples sub-assemblies, when I put part list with "parts only", it shows all parts of sub-assemblies and when I put with "structured", it shows all sub-assemblies(structured).
Is there a possibility to show selected sub-assemblies in parts while remaining as structured in one part list?

I have an assembly file in which I have created several levels of detail. My intent was to suppress specific parts in the assembly (for views in the idw and to calculate the weight of the assembly).
I have noticed that the mass is incorrect for the level of detail that I want calculated. I determined this after creating a new assembly and deleting all parts that were not used in this level of detail. And, by viewing all parts individually and adding them up by hand.
All parts in the assembly have the correct density. I have selected to calculate the mass properties of the active level of detail when updating.
My questions: Am I correct in assuming that the assembly will caculate only the parts that are not suppressed? Or, am I thinking of it wrong? Is this particular assembly messed up? I haven't noticed this before and am now concerned that my weights have been incorrect.
My solution to use right now is to create a new assembly just for figuring out the weight. I think there is a better way.

I have an assembly consisting of 4 sub-assemblies. Item 4 is a mount plate c/w M16 fasteners.I would like the fasteners to display as sub-parts under item 4 (24520020s) as 4.1, 4.2, etc because they are also purchasable separately.
I do not want to display the mount plate (03241389s) because it's not purchasable separately.
When I expand item 4 in the parts list it automatically turns visibility off for item 4 (24520020s), and only shows the children (0231....s).I would like to display item 4 & the fasteners only. Quite simple to turn off visibility of 03241389s, but cannot get the parent and child parts to display at the same time.

Is there a way to get sheet number of the base view for the Selected Child view (Mainly for Section. Detail Views). Because the Section views, Detail views (initially they would have created on the same sheet where the parent is, then they moved to different sheets). So we place the parent view sheet number.

I started with a Left side view of a part and created a sectioned view right down the middle so you can see the insides from another view. the part is pretty big so i used a Break to shorten it to fit the page. I also placed a smaller and separate isometric view of the same part and want this view to inherit the same break. How can I do this? If I go into the display options of the iso view, all the cut inheritance options are grayed out and can't be clicked. I've seen this done before, but i'm sure i missed a step somewhere.

I've created a drawing and when I create a detail view, the actual view appears in the drawing but the circle and arrows along with the view identifier are not showing up. It's like the visibility has been turn off. how to turn it back on?

I have made an exploded view and placed it an a drawing. I would like to view inside one of the bodies to show where the exploded internals sit, however when I do a break out of the body the trail lines from the exploded internals also get sectioned. Is there a way to control the sectional properties of a trail line?

After upgrading to Inventor 2014 we notice that the graphics do not work properly, and that the overall performance in drawings and modelling bad compared to 2013. Then we installed SP1 and now drawing views are disappearing, however when we select "shaded" view the view reappears and works perfectly..
Any workaround regarding disappearing views?

Sometimes when I try to create a detail view of an isometric view in my IDW, the "detail full boundary" option is greyed out? Why would this be? If I try an ortho view it works fine.
