AutoCAD Inventor :: Part Number In IProperties Is Automatically Updated To Match New Filename
Jun 13, 2013When you do a Save As or Save Copy As in Inventor the part number in the iProperties is automatically updated to match the new filename. I would expect the Document.SaveAs method in the API to act in a similar way. However I found out that this is not the case.
SaveAs: Document.SaveAs(filename, False) does not update the part number. The new part will still have the same part number as the original part. This can give problems since in the BOM parts with the same part number are interpreted as the same physical part.
SaveCopyAs: Document.SaveAs(filename, True) does work as expected and the part number will update correctly.
Is this a bug in the API? or is there a reasonable explanation for this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Code Part Iproperties To Custom Iproperties
Sep 19, 2013I was looking for some iLogic Code for Inventor 2013 that would cycle through all the parts in an assembly grabbing the quantity of each part and setting it equal to the custom property "Qty" of each part.

Nov 2, 2011I am using ilogic in Inventor 2011 to update my iproperties when I save a .dwg file. I am having problems with some custom iProperties I have created that are of the type 'number' and are initially set to 0 (zero). After the iLogic rule has run and the user has entered a numeric value the type of the custom iproperty has changed to 'text'.
The ilogic code I am using is:
If iProperties.Value("Custom", "Nominal ID") = 0 Then
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Nominal ID") = InputBox("Enter The Nominal ID (Enter 0 if no value is available)", "Nominal ID", 0)
Custom_iProp_Nom_ID = iProperties.Value("Custom", "Nominal ID")
End If
I am using Vault 2011 and would like to map this property to a numeric property so I can perform <= and >= searches.
AutoCAD Inventor :: View Iproperties Of All Files In Project Or Directory?
Jul 9, 2013I am updating a lot of parts before putting them in a "vault" Is there a way to list the I properties and document settings of all parts and assemblies in a directory rather than opening each part individually. It would be great if I could make edits that way as well. (for example change a status to released or a BOM to purchased.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Change IProperties For Virtual Part
Sep 26, 2013How to add a virtual part from an excel list to assembly using vb.net plugin. I`d like to know how to change i Properties of the virtual part through vb.net.
The iLogic code that I would typically use is:
Dim occs As ComponentOccurrencesoccs = asmDoc.ComponentDefinition.OccurrencesDim identity As Matrixidentity = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry.CreateMatrix
Dim virtOcc As ComponentOccurrenceIf v_qty >= 1 ThenvirtOcc = occs.AddVirtual(sVirtPart, identity) Try iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Project", "Description") = oProp1iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Summary", "Title") = oProp1 Catch End Try.......
so for the plugin I need to re-write this
Dim _invApp As Inventor.ApplicationDim occs As ComponentOccurrencesoccs = asmDoc.ComponentDefinition.Occurrences
Dim identity As Matrixidentity = _invApp.TransientGeometry.CreateMatrix Dim virtOcc As ComponentOccurrence If vp_qty >= 1 Then virtOcc = occs.AddVirtual(sVirtPart, identity) 'Try ' iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Project", "Description") = oProp1 ' iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Summary", "Title") = oProp1 'Catch 'catch error when oProp1 = nothing 'End Try
How should I re-write the text in bold , so it works?
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Iproperties Of The Selected Part Or Sub-assembly
Jan 19, 2013I'm using Visual Basic 2010 Express and Inventor 2013. I can get the properties such as PartName, Description information of the all sub parts using below
Dim invDocs As Documents
invDocs = inv_App.Documents
Dim i As Integer
Dim invDocument As Document
For i = 1 To invDocs.Count
[code].........
Above code works perfect. But I want to get or change i property values of the selected part or assembly in the biggest assembly. I got below information:
Dim selSet As SelectSet
selSet = asmDoc.SelectSet
Dim compOcc As ComponentOccurrence
Dim obj As Object
For Each obj In selSet
compOcc = obj
'Debug.Print(compOcc.Name)
compOcc.Visible = False
Next
But I do not know how can I get the properties of the selected part or sub-asm . How can I walk from "compOcc" to "invDocument.PropertySets.Item("Design Tracking Properties").Item("Description") "
P.S. I will check the selected part quantity. It must be only ONE! Control Code below:
Dim asmDoc As AssemblyDocument
asmDoc = inv_App.ActiveDocument
If asmDoc.SelectSet.Count <> 1 Then
MsgBox("You need to select only one part or sub-asm to change properties...!")
Return
End If

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 - IProperties And Edit Derived Part Dialogs Not Appearing
Feb 18, 2013I've occasionally run into a problem where when I right-click at the root of the browser tree and select iProperties, the dialog will not show. The application acts as if the dialog is active (in particular, Windows makes an annoying ding every time I try to click somewhere on the Inventor UI) but I cannot see it. If I recall correctly, this only affected some files, and I could usually get around it by opening the dialog from the main menu rather than from the browser.
Now I am experiencing something similar with the Derived Part dialog. After I select a part file to derive from, the dialog for selecting individual elements never actually appears on the screen, but Inventor seems to think it's there, as the part I am deriving from is displayed in the viewport and the browser tree is locked out. Again, it seems as if the dialog is active but invisible: If I press Enter, I get a derived part, and if I press Escape, the preview disappears and nothing new is put in the browser. Of course, I can't choose which elements of the base part I want to derive from. Right-clicking the derived part entry in the browser and selecting "Edit derived part" produces the same result -- evidently, an invisible dialog box.
I am running Inventor 2011 SP2.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Flexible Hoses With Same Part Number

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Browser Name To Part Number
Jun 13, 2011I need to make installation plans on climate ceilings, which are steel cassettes with Meandro tube element located where cold or hot water is flowing through.
[URL]......
Now it may occur that a cassette is given a code 700 which represents the type of cassette. If inside the cassette is placed a Meandro element its become a follow number eg 700-01.
It may also be that the same cassette No. 700 gets another Meandro element and because the cassette has not changed shape the number 700 remains the same but the follow number change e.g. 700-02.
At the moment I change the number in the browser,(inv2012) I therefore want automatically the iproperties ,partnumber and stock number, to fit. When I go to the BOM, the part- and stock numbers automatically will be placed.
The browser codes are not displayed in the BOM. So if I specify for change I only have to do so in the browser. I wanted to do so by iLogic but then ran into problems. I found a tutorial from Rob Cohee with ilogic so you won’t forget to fill in your iproperties.
[URL].......
I also wanted to do so with the iproprtie Stock number but get an error stating that I must declare the name. How must i declare a name.
Also i was told for entering the browse name in ilogic i had to use displayName, but I get a error stating that the name is Read Only.
So how can i, after i change the browse name, automatically fill in the iproperties ‘part number and/or stock number? Is there an ilogic code for?
