AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Export IProperties To TXT ILogic
Nov 11, 2013
I would like to copy and paste all iproperties from one part to another, without retyping it all.
What i was thinking about is:
1. Exporting all iproperties to .txt
2. Run a import .txt rule to iproperties.
Is it possible? If so, How could i accomplish a task such as this?

I 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.
Having a little trouble creating the for each loop and setting reference to each part without referencing each part by specific name.

I am sure this is extremely simple to do but I am missing something. I am wanting to set the Description of a part in the Iproperties using values from the parameters. For instance, if the part has a length value of 10 and a width value of 5 I want the Description to say: 10 x 5 Floor Sheet
I cannot figure out how to extract the parameter values and place them into the iproperties. Here is what I have tried: iProperties.Value("Project", "Description")=" =<Length> x <Width> Floor Sheet"... This gives me the following result in my description: x Floor Sheet

I wish to set the properties of an assembly using i Logic. I have the values of the properties in a part that is in the assembly. I wish to pass those values from the part to the assemblies i properties. I tried using the following code, but it gives an error saying it can not find the document "MyAssy.iam"
iProperties.Value("MyAssy.iam", ThisDoc.Path, "Part Number")=AssyNo
I'm not even sure that this is the way to do, but it's the only way I could think of to try.

I want to use i Logic to retreave or push the i Property of "Project" from my skeleton file to the rest of the parts and assemblies in the project.

My goal is to use basic ilogic to fill in some of the standard iproperty fields from parameters.I have so far managed to populate the description iproperty with one value from the parameters using this ilogic code;
iProperties.Value("Project","Description") = length
where length is a user parameter.Want I would like to do is build on this to include more parameters such as material thickness, width and depth etc so the resulting iproperty description field would read something like
1.2mm SS 50x100 @3000
How do I go about writing the ilogic string to include multiple values and end up filling in the one description field?

I would like to be able to add iproperty values to a derived part from the assembly..!
Breaking it down..:
When i run the rule, it creates a derived part from the Assembly i have open.
The iproperties from the assembly should be copied to the new Derived Part. or just set direclty from the rule, doesn't matter...

I'm trying to build a simple ilogic form to fill out iproperty infomation for parts we generate. Our company only uses a few of fields that are available. The problem is that the Physical tab is not available in the form editor. I would like to add this field to my form to be able to select the material for the part. The style/standard editor in our part template file holds all materials we use. Summary, Project, Status, and Custom are all available, why isn't Physical?

Is it possible to automatically add custom iproperties using iLogic?
I have a rule thats adds text to a propery, but when I run the rule in an old partfile i get the error:
"Can't find a property named DrawingNo"
Is there something like:
"Create iProperties.Value("Custom", "DrawingNo")"?

I am trying to use an iLogic rule to populate iProperties (some generic, some custom) from a part number spreadsheet (containing columns such as PART NUMBER, DESCRIPTION, FINISH etc) and the rule keeps throwing up the following error 'Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid.'
Here’s part of the code (would be extended for the required custom iproperties but I’m assuming the same principle is ok)
StartRule:
'read excel file
GoExcel.Open("C:DESIGNDocumentsEXCEL FILESPART NUMBERS", "PARTS")
'index row 3 through 10000
For rowPN = 3 To 10000
'find first empty cell in PART NUMBER column (Column A)
If (GoExcel.CellValue("A" & rowPN) = "") Then
[code]...
Changing the format of the excel data (number or text) has no effect. Is manipulation of the format required so that Inventor can read text and numbers to iProperties in this way?

I'm working on a main assembly. I want to edit the i properties of components within a sub-assembly, this is fine for "RING:1"
iProperties.Value("RING:1","Project", "Description")="A79-H020B001"
but I get an error message when i try to edit the iproperties of a patterned component within the sub-assembly.

I want a ilogic rule syntax for following process:
I have one excel sheet it consists around 5 sheets for Plate, Flats, Rounds, etc. When i am run the rule then it will ask and do the following:
Ask the thickness value.It will search thickness value in “D:LINUS KOTTEstock numbers.xlsx” in sheet 1If thickness value found then fill the stock number in iproperty(project tab-stock number)
Here i am using different rules for plate, flat, round, etc.,

I have a form that is loading automatically in my part model. where i write the part number, description, project and custom titles.
my questions are:
1 - when i write the part number i would like then when i click apply it opens the save box with the same part number.
2 - it's possible to check-in the file during the saving and keeping the file checkout?
3 - i would like that some of the properties would be transfer to the drawing, like the description and the project (this two are from the part properties.
4 - transfer also for the drawing the custom titles to the custom i properties of the drawing as pre fill in.

I'm trying to put a little iLogic rule in my drawing template which triggers as soon as the drawing is opened. The rule asks the user whether the component he's making a drawing of needs to be painted or not. If it gets painted, the paint area (one side only or both sides) needs to be calculated. The result of this is then referenced by a text note in the title block.
I can do the radio boxes with the questions, as well as their If loops, but only when I'm in the model. Due to our, admittedly inefficient workflow, we never have time to specify "minor details" like paint area or spec during modelling, only when we get to drawing level. I'd like to put the iLogic rule inside the drawing template. I'm having trouble referencing the iProperties of the model from within the drawing's iLogic interface.
What I have so far is this rule, which I can run inside the model:
'set dummy variable equal to total areatotal_area = iProperties.Area'start radio box with questionsText1 = InputRadioBox("Will this component be painted?", "Yes", "No", Text1, Title := iProperties.Value("Project", "Description"))If Text1 = True ThenText2 = InputRadioBox("How many sides will be painted?", "Both sides", "One side only", Text2, Title := iProperties.Value("Project", "Description"))If Text2 = True TheniProperties.Value("Custom", "Paint Area") = total_areaElseIf Text2 = False TheniProperties.Value("Custom", "Paint Area") = total_area/2End IfElseIf Text1 = False TheniProperties.Value("Custom", "Paint Area") = 0End If
adding a line or two so that I can run the same rule, but from the drawing.

I'm trying to do this with iLogic, and i'm not getting anywhere. What I need, is to be able get to the iProperties of an associated model that is referenced into a drawing file. I want to make it easier to update the iProperties from the drawing file, without having to open the model file.

I 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.

Any way to use iLogic to create custom iProperties from the cells in an Excel spreadsheet (both text and numbers) for a .dwg template. The only thing even close has been a user who already knew how to do it and was having a different problem. I am using Inventor 2012 and Excel 2003 and have very little experience with VB. I currently have a family of assemblies, consisting of two parts linked to an Excel spreadsheet to control the various parameters for each variation of the assembly.
I need creating an iLogic rule that will:
Go to a specific tab (I have four different tabs/worksheets) in an Excel spreadsheet.
Make a specfic row of that worksheet the current row based on the part number used to generate the models of the assembly shown in a .dwg.
Use the contents of a cell in that row (text or numeric or a combination of both) to generate a custom iProperty for the .dwg template.
Use the custom iProperties to fill in the title block of the template.

I have problems to export dwf with ilogic
I use parts of the snippets than ships with inventor, but I can not export the 2d and 3d in the same dwf.
Perhaps it might have something to do with that when I export a 2d file the traditional way only 2d gets exported to the dwf if i dont open the tab that lets you choose 2d and 3d model.
Even if i have the 3d model checked i have to open the tab to get both 2d and 3d, if i dont open the tab only 2d
Here is the code.
path_and_name = ThisDoc.PathAndFileName(False)
DWFAddIn = ThisApplication.ApplicationAddIns.ItemById("{0AC6FD95-2F4D-42CE-8BE0-8AEA580399E4}")
oDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
oContext = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateTranslationContext
oContext.Type = IOMechanismEnum.kFileBrowseIOMechanism

I want to export reference parameters to an excel table using i-Logic
I found the function GoExcel.CellValues("filename.xls", "Sheet1", "A2", "A10") = MultiValue.List("d0")
It looks like the syntax calls for the file location and name if the xls file is not open and if open is not supposed to be required.
I have entered it both ways and with and with out the target file open and with the function GoExcel.Open("pathFilename.xls","sheet1") and continue to get the error:
we couldn't find C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls. Is it possible it was moved, renamed or deleted?
Also, I was expecting that to fill in the sheet cell's would be MultiValue.List("d0","d1","d2")
but the system give me an error that says
Error on Line 3 : Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'List' accepts this number of arguments.
See below
GoExcel.Open("C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls", "AC-100-0101003-TEST")GoExcel.CellValues("C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls", "AC-100-0101003-TEST", "A2", "A10") = MultiValue.List("d194_A")GoExcel.Save

I have been using a simple rule to export IDW drawings to ACAD 2000 DWG format using Inventor 2011. I upgraded to Inventor 2012 Pro past weekend and am having problems running Ilogic Rules.
Running the rules on Inventor 2012 Pro either manually or using Triggers errors out. The same rule run using Inventor 2011 works ok. The code I have is direclty from the My Snippet> Export DXF from IDW. All occurences of "DXF" were replaced with "DWG". Here is the complete

Dim DWGAddIn As TranslatorAddIn

'Set a reference to the active document (the document to be published).
Dim oDocument As Document
oDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

Below is the error message. I don't know what this is but the DWG and DXF translators ADDIN may not be loading up. I have loaded them manually using ADDIN Manager but I continue to get this error.

I have a simple iLogic rule to save an IDW using SAVE COPY AS DWG. The rule was created in Inventor 2011 ilogic and was embedded in the IDW template. Trigger was set to activate when the new drawing file was saved. It no longer works and errors out in Inventor 2012. The template has been migrated to 2012 and so has the project file. The ilogic Code is given below. if some new settings in Inventor 2012 need to be changed for it to work? Or if you have an ilogic rule to do the same that works,
