AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Change G_L Parameter From In To Mm

Aug 24, 2013

I have generated frame that has 100 members in it. Is there a quicker way of changing G_L unit to a mm so that I don't have to go into all 100 parts to change the custom properties?

Also I do not need unit string to be appear in my BOM.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ipart - Standard Parameter Column Change Depending On Custom Parameter Column

Jan 3, 2013

I am trying to publish to the CC a guide rail. The vendor of the rail gives me the option of entering the desired length of the rail. After that he gives me the option to choose between the length that I entered and a shorter and longer standard length witch can be delivered faster.

I want to do the same thing with my published part, but I cannot make a key parameter to change depending on the entered custom parameter. I want the user to make the next steps when inserting from the CC: 1- select the size of the rail; 2-select the type of the rail; 3- enter the desired length of the rail; 4- choose between the desired length and the 2 recommended lengths (I need these 3 lengths to be shown)

Is this possible?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Scale With ILogic Upon Parameter Change

Jul 8, 2013

I have a spreadsheet and iLogic driven mater assy to generate different iterations.

I would like to change the scale of a base view on a drawing based on a parameter in my assembly. The idea is to get iLogic to change the view using a simple If / Else statement.

This is what I tried:

If Parameter("0 Generic Assembly v2.2.iam.BP") < 1570 Then
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/8
Else
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/10
EndIf

So basically the value of "BP" parameter (excel parameter in my assy) would drive the scale of the views. But its not working. Is it actually a sensible method? Can I use in the drawing environment the excel parameters in my assembly?

This is the error message I get when the rule is run:

"Error in rule: View Scale, in document: 0 Generic Assembly v2.2.idw

Unspecified error (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004005 (E_FAIL))" 

Also using the same thinking I use iLogic to populate the drg number field on the drawing based on an excel parameter. The rule works but does not always updates the drawing no upon the parameter change or update/rebuild commands.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Using ILogic To Change Parameter

Mar 26, 2013

When I import a part from content center, a tube in this case, I get a length parameter called <PL>.

I am using this parameter in the parts lists, so it shows "=Outer diameter x thickness x <PL>"

However I don't want trailing zeros, leading zeros or units string to be shown.

I know I can open the parameters window, right click the parameter, then click custom property format and then uncheck these boxes and its fine.

But I want to know if there is a smarter way to do this, like creating a rule to execute on all the parts?

I have around 500 pipes with the parameter <PL> that needs to be changed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Change Parameter In Any Part That Is Not A Component

Oct 1, 2013

The commented code does not work. I want to be able to open a part and change its size parameters before i open the assembly. this code will run as an external rule in a new empty file. 

If i can do it without opening the part, that is even better. Test can I open a part, change a param, then close part.

Dim fname As String
fname ="C:Workspacemy_progchanF_BB_L.ipt"
Dim pDoc as PartDocument = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(fname,False)
pDoc  = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(fname)

These are just attempts to find a syntax that works. I need the method to change the parameter.

 'param = pDoc.PartComponentDefinition.Parameter.Param("TKNS")
 'pdoc.parameter.Param("TKNS") = 8
pdoc.Save
pdoc.Close

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Driven Part Not Updating After Parameter Change

Jul 26, 2013

I have a flange that I use iLogic and the parameters list to update the different styles. My problem is that my flange won't update until after I hit save and update. My other square flange is not this way. As soon as I change the parameter in my square flange it immediately updates. Is there anyway I can get my round flange to update immediately like my square flange? I attached pictures below.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Set Parameter For End Value Of Parameter Animation

Dec 19, 2011

I got a deadline for my project, but I got a big problem:

"I cannot set the "parameter" for the End Value in Parameter Animate dialog"

For easy understand, let's see a example:

1. I got a part which has two parameters named: "A" and "MaxA"
2. I animate Favorited parameter A.
3. The End Value is MaxA_ (Everything is ok)
4. I finish Studio environment, then I change parameter MaxA_ from 200 mm to 400 mm
5. I turn back to Studio environment, the End Value now is "200 mm" (I want this will be MaxA_, so I can animate the flexible parameter). 

show me how to keep the end value will be "MaxA_" after I change parameter?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Using Parameter In IProperties

Jan 6, 2014

Sometimes I change the dimensions of a material I use but then I have to open Iproperties and change the description by hand. This can create problems as you can understand especially when I forget to update the Iproperties.

Then I had the thought to automate it. Lets take a steel bar as example. I have thickness and width as parameter, both are exported and available under IProperties/Custom. But they show as 200 mm and 10 mm. I would like to loose the units. I tried also UL but then it reads 200 ul and 10 ul.

What I like to get are just the numbers, no units. I like to use it to create this  "steel bar 200x10" where the 200 and the 10 are linked to the Parameter and will change when I change the dimensions av the steel bar.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Parameter From IPT File

Aug 8, 2012

I created a *.iam file. And from this asembly file, I need run some rules in *.ipt file.

I use

Parameter("PartA:1", "d12") = d12

to give d12 parameter in my assembly to d12 parameter in *.ipt. It works.

But I need get parameter in the *.ipt file after running the rules in *.ipt.

so, I put 

d13 = Parameter("PartA:1", "d13")

following above line.

But everytime, I just be able to get the result before *.ipt run the rules, not after.

I noticed the rules in assembly were compeletely run, then run the rules in *.ipt. So, the result is not correct.

I am using Inventor 2009 with ilogic. XP OS.
