iLogic has the capabilities to access the physical properties of part files such as mass / area / volume etc. ilogic syntax to read the inertial properties of the part file such as Global Ixx / Iyy / Izz??
I can find it in the API help, but i don't really want to write it as separate code, just want to simply access it through iLogic interface.
Is there a way to reset changes in a partlist. If I have changed in partlist, the changes in BOM can't be shown in partlist. I don't want any "blue" fields in the partlist, they are static.
How can I get the iPart information in a partlist.
I have a tupe DN 25 iPart where I can control the length, and i'll like to have a text I description field in my partlist that says "DN 25, Length = <actual length>".
When I make a frame, with framegerator the size (80 x 80 x 2) is placed in QTY field, i want to have 1 in quantity and then I place the dimension =<G_H> x <G_W> <G_L> in my own dimension field ! how can I change it, so i don't have 80x80x3 in the quantity field ?
When I make a custom change in a field, is there a way to "go back" to hov the BOM/PARTLIST looked before custom change ?
I have created a drawing from the parametric model assembly where i have clevis, lug plate and pin arrgt.
the model has been generated using the input excel spreadsheet where i have given the inputs like clevis thk, lug thk,pin dia etc.,
while creating the drawing partlist i have included the column of clevis thk, lug thk etc., using the iproperty, but these columns are coming separately, i just want the thk of clevis and lug in the same column so that i will make Bom for the assembly.
How to get the parametric inputs in the same column of the patlist in drawing.
When i insert a partlist in a drawing the insert point of the partlist is in the upper right corner? i want the insertpoint in the lower right corner, because i know the height of our titleblock. Then i will allways be able to possition the partlist right above the titleblock. I never know how heigh the partlist is because the amount of parts in the partlist is different every time. Is it possible to change the partlist insertpoint to the lower right corner of the partlist when its inserted via the API?
I am working on a project for an electricity and magnetism class that deals with using neodymium magnets to propel other neodymium in around a ring. Any method of both importing neodymium or any other rare earth magnetic material into Autodesk Inventor 2013 and then running a dynamic simulation on an assembly consisting of those parts.
I'd like to know how inventor defines the center of rotation when you apply moment load on multiple faces at once. I'm not basically able to define where exactly I need that axis to be. and I dont understand where inventor assumes that axis is. if you take a look at attached model, obviously the resultant forces caused by the applied moment are bigger on the single pillar located on the extention, thats why its been displaced more than the others, but where exactly is center of rotation. I'm trying to avoid modeling of the section above this which technically transfers the moment thorough shear pins on the structure I have modeled.
I am trying to determine the moment of inertia of an L-section using IV 2009. By selecting Tools>Region Properties of a closed loop profile in the sketch environment the moment of inertia is given, however the principal axes through the centroid are at 45 degrees to the toe of the angle (see attached image). I want Ixx and Iyy where the X and Y axes are parallel to the horizontal and vertical toe respectively.
Coincidentally, AutoCAD orientates the principal axes the same when viewing the Region Mass Properties of a similar Region.
I have a problem with Inventor pro 2013 rounding of the area moment of inertia to zero (region properties). For example if I create a new sketch and draw a 1 mm x 0.5 mm rectangle and measure the area moment of inertia it will be 0 for one of the pricipal axes. If I change the rectangle to 1 mm x 0.6 mm it doesn't round it off. Seems like there's a problem with the precision in the calculations somehow.
I have tried to change the document units to microns but the same thing happens.
is there a way to make inventor do this calculation correctly?
I created the gear (helical) in the attached file using the standard gear tool in inventor. The problem is how do i then find the mass moment of inertia of it using Inventor?
I want to set up my drawings so that the title block displays properties from the model. I want to set this up so there will be drawing properties to extract into Vault. So I want to know what other Inventor and Vault users are doing to get model properties into Inventor drawings: Using model properties in the title block and nothing to extract in Vault or Copy model properties so Vault has data to extract.
I want to know what the best in class practice is? What are others doing? I do not want to use iLogic I was out of the box Inventor functionality.
I am working with a set of dynamic blocks, each with a block table that provides a drop down for the user to alter attributes from. My goal is to be able to update the block table using VBA to push data from an excel file. I do have import/export code that will update block attributes, but I am not sure the functions that would access the table properties.
I am transforming water system components from Autocad dwg files (created in Civil 3d 2013 I think) to a personal (or file) geodatabase in ArcGIS 10.1. I am not familair with using Civil 3d.
I would like to know if there is some way I can export (as ESRI shapefile) AECC alignment objects (waterlines) as lines/polylines and preserve associated data (flow direction and station label info) as field attributes associated with the lines/polylines. I am not sure if there is elevation data associated with the alignments, but would want to preserve that data too if it is available.
Currently working with water system asset inventory mapping and geodatabase design using Autocad Map 3d 2014 on Windows 7 using ESRI ArcGIS 10.1 on Windows 7 using ArcGIS 10.2 on Windows 8.1
I ran into a problem with my dimensions. Everything worked just fine until suddenly, in model tab, every new dimension i wanted to draw, looked like this (see .jpg attatchment). I didnt modify anything. Just changed to layout tab for a moment and then back to model. When i changed the text height into 10x bigger just to see the difference, the white dimension line just got wider and thats it.
if i add a video file to corel studio x4 and all i do is cut out certain parts of that video file, how do export the file with the same video attributes, the same properties as the original file? do i use the option under create video file "same as project settings" or do i use "same as first video file?" I don't want any change in the video file i want it to remain the same as the original file.
I'd like to export certain properties from an ai-document to XML. The XML will be post-processed using XSLT. Secretly, I'm hoping that I can invoke the Reflection-system (as mentioned brifely, I might add) in the ExtendedScript Toolkit CS6 Core JavaScript Classes.
How to get reflection working for JavaScript objects (both built-in and the ones I've created in code my self)? Are there any guides that are relevant in my case? (Try googling "illustrator script reflection" and you get a bunch of flip object scripts ...)
We are running Revit 11 on windows 7 64bit, and we have been having this problem at the moment the local file tries to synchronize with central, revit hangs up and we get stuck in the windows timer circle (which we have dubed the circle of death) as the only way to get back or out of it is to cold boot the system.
I am having a problem where Photoshop does not always give me accurate color display all the time. I am aware of the situation but this has become an issue where I have to edit some photos for a pro lab output. The monitor has been calibrated and delta E is less than 0.5, which is okay.
Attached is the print screen of PS at one moment, vs the print screen of PS at another moment (they were layered and mask applied). Dragging the image U/D/L/R also shows the colour one or another. This becomes quite an issue since I had no way of telling whether I am seeing the correct color, especially when I am soft proofing or converting color profiles for final output.
the properties palette started only showing the current properites for the drawing and not the properties of the entity selected. what causes this i am using autocad civil 3d 2013.
When I select any object, my quick properties tab is blank and my properties tab doesn't register anything. Also, I get an error message when I go into my CUI to try to modify the quick properties tab. Pretty frustrating. I've attached a couple of images for reference. I've repaired, re-installed and unistalled and re-installed and still have the same probelm.

Somehow the Properties Palette has gotten less wide- such that I can't read teh actual properties. Previously I was able to make it wider just by hovering over it, clicking on an arrow and dragging it wider. Not now.
It's not just the layer that isn't being displayed in the Properties Palette. My 2014 Properties Palette isn't contextual--displays only the general info--none of the object specific information.
