AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Delete Custom Iprop Column From BOM
Feb 7, 2011
I have an assembly with a custom iproperty column that filled a need that has recently been removed. How do I delete the column from the BOM editor? I realize the iProp will still exist in the part files, I just want it gone from the BOM editor when I open it. I thought I could just delete it from the "Add Custom iProperty Columns" button but no dice.

is there a difference between <FLAT PATTERN LENGTH> <Sheet Metal Length> using them as custom sheet metal iProp? They seem both give correct output of flat sheet metal measures.

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?

I have a program that create a bunch of new custom Iprop in each part of an assembly.
How can I show all those new properties when I open the BOM in the assembly file. Manually I can add a custom column but that is time consuming. Is there a way I can create a macro that will add those custom column in the BOM view?

it is possible to set the value of one or more "custom" column of an iPart row.
Per example woul this iLogic method work?
iPart.ChangeRow("iComponentName:1", "RowMemberName", customParam1, customParam2)
If so, could you demonstrate how to use it?

I copied an existing family into my new read library. I added some rows to be able to generate a few variations that were not contained in the original family. I just copied existing row up several times and edited the information in those rows to yield desired new variations. I made sure the file name column contained a unique file name for these new members. When I go to publish I get this error message:
Defined file name does not include all custom columns. An identical file name can be generated for different members. Make sure that the file name is unique for any combination of custom column values to avoid placement failure
Missing Custom Columns:
Length
(see also attached screen shot)
I have scoured the file name column and can find no repeated file names; I cannot understand the rest of the error message. It must have something to do with the "does not include all custom values" portion of the error message.

I want to add a column to my parts list, which displays a value based on a formula.
Lets say i want to show the submerged weight of a part; So i need to create a column, which can use the information about a parts volume and mass to calculate its submerged weight.
An easy formula, but is this possible in Inventor (2012 Pro)?

In a simple case I have an extrusion with some attached seals/weather stripping, all implemented as iParts having their own LENGTH parameters.
RailPart.ipt, Seal_A.ipt, Seal_B.ipt
The goal is to encapsulate these IParts within an iAssembly: RailAssy.iam, where a LENGTH parameter can be input when the iAssembly is placed, causing RailPart and Seal_A to have their length parameters set to the LENGTH provided at that time and SEAL_B having Length set by an iLogic rule to LENGTH - 5.
I've been unable to set up a Custom Parameter Column in an iAssembly table. Is this even permitted?

i'm a starter working with iLogic, forms and rules.I'm trying to make a rule to force users to fill in certain iProperties before saving.Looking around on the internet I found a rule that works fine, except it checks only for empty spaces, so doesn't show up if they are filled.
What I want, is to edit the rule so that the form always shows when saving, but still pops up when the user has an empty space but hits ok. Just so people are made aware of what they filled in in the first place.
Manager = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Manager")Desc = iProperties.Value("Project", "Description")Partnr = iProperties.Value("Project", "Part Number")Keywords = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Keywords")Engineer = iProperties.Value("Project", "Engineer")Scale = iProperties.Value("Custom", "Scale")Descr1 = iProperties.Value("Custom", "Descr1")Drwnr = iProperties.Value("Custom", "Drawing number")Do Until String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Manager)
[code]....

I'm trying to delete a middle column from a JPEG of a page of text columns without leaving a blank space where the column used to be. Viewing the page as three rectangles -- the rectangle to the left of the unwanted column, the rectangle containing the unwanted column, and the rectangle to the right of the unwanted column, I want to eliminate the middle rectangle and join the right rectangle directly to the left rectangle.

I am having issues with creating viewports in the attached file. When I open the layout, say layout 3, it shows the viewport frame but I cannot highlight it in order to delete it. This is a setting in this file I have inadvertently turned on or off. I have created a new file, done a scribble, opened a layout and deleted the viewport.

Is there a way to customize the BOM columns so that Inventor remembers which columns I need? I know that I can add in the file name column etc. but I use the same columns over and over. I find myself in every assembly adding these columns in.

I have a problem inserting the slanted columns when I use the "Beam/Column joints" commando. When I insert the slanted column, the beams are divided.
It should look like picture 1, but it always ends up as image 2. How can I solve this?

When inserting a content center part for which we have to choose a material, we would like to have a custom material as a default (material with name: "No material selected"). So when selecting no material for this part (for example when the user forgets to select a specific material), the default material (in this case material "No material selected") will be active. In this way, we can see in one view across the BOM which parts have no material assigned yet.
How can this be achieved in the content center (editor)?

When using Inventor with Vault, we have a problem when categorizing custom content center parts in Vault. In short, custom content center parts are incorrectly categorized as "Content Center" and automatically released - as there is no property that we can use to identify these files.
I need iLogic code to trigger when custom content center files are created/saved, wich adds the following custom iproperty "IsCustomContentCenter=True".

I am trying to create custom Materials in Inventor 2013. I have been able to create the custom appearances I want use on the materials and store them in the Inventor Materials Library.
After creating the custom appearance, Ive created new materials. When I try to change to new material appearance from default to my custom appearance, upon hitting the 'apply' button I get an error message which reads, 'failed to updated style'.

When I try to calculate bending moment stress thru "Beam and column calcultor it shows an error that is Wk and Jk is missing. Ok that is fine. If we put values for both we will get the answer. Because I have come to know thru inv discussion that many material in the CC do not have these values.
Now my question is when we insert a part for example from content centre (CC) and do FEA analysis on this part. It shows some values like deflection, stress etc etc. How is that possible? one side it is not doing in the beam calculatio but other side in FEA it is doing that.
It means we are not going to rely upon these results in the FEA. It is the same CC, same inventor, how should be trust the result in FEA.

I have written code to allow me to pick the dimensions of a part and update the dimension parameter name from a list of choices presented in a form e.g. length, width, thickness, outer_diameter, wall etc.
The parameters are exported and I can get overall sizes in the BOM with relevant expressions in columns. So far so good.
What I would like to do is have a global SIZE column in the BOM which has expressions that vary based on another custom iproperty (PartType) which defines the part. So for example if the PartType was 'circular plate' the expression in that parts row of the SIZE column would be <outer_diameter>x<Thickness> while if the PartType was 'tube' the expression in the that parts row would be <Outer Diameter>x<Wall>x<Length> etc
If I could do this I would not need different columns to define the sizes of every different type of material we use and also limit the number of parameters the user needs to choose from when picking part dimensions.
However looking at the BOM API I do not see an obvious way to alter the expressions.

I have a BOM that shows up as in units for length items and unitless for qty items. When I change the UOM to use FT units the non-length units get inch ticks. The qty 1 which means I need one shows up as 1" where I do not require a 1 inch part but one each. How do I remove the inch ticks?

I'm detailing an iPart. Only two dimensions need to be included in the table. One is the driving dimension and the second is a function of the driving dimension. How do I get the column for the second dimension to display a value, rather than an equation?

I've made a custom brush library and want to delete some of the brushes but there is no little garbage can icon in the lower right hand corner of the brushes pallete. How do I delete the unwanted brushes from the cusotm library? The little garbage can IS on the regular brushes pallette.
