Any way to modify a user form parameter's read only status using a rule?
I have a parameter that I want people to be able to edit when another parameter is set to true and to be locked if it's set to false. The only thing that comes to mind is have a rule that will just switch the value back automatically if the user changes it but it would be good if i could control the read only status.
Is it possible to add a stop or cancel button onto ilogic code?
I have code that looks into all .ipts with a certain material type,that works great but if we run by accident there is no way of stopping code until it finishes .
I have created a new form using three fields, to show quantities, job no etc. and was wondering what code I need to use to be able to push enter after filling out a field and then jumping to the next field?
I have a ipt which is controlled via an ilogic form,this form is opened by ilogic code, which in turn is triggered when the ipt is opened.
my problem is when the part is placed within an assembly the said form is triggered and the same happens when the assembly is reopened!.... I would prefer if the form opened only when the ipt is opened or edited....
Is there a snippet of code for this? Or is it even possible?
I have a global form which is exactly made for a specific assembly for configuration of this very assembly. To make things easier for the user I call another external rule which only opens exactly this assembly.
Now when the user opens the form the assembly is not open and obviously can´t reference the used parameters.
Even after loading the assembly the parameters are not available, which results in something like this:
So this is a really simple question, is there a way to update a form so that it rereads the parameters from the assembly?
What I tried is using iLogicForm.CloseGlobal("Name of form") to no availability and then open it again with iLogicForm.ShowGlobal("Name of form").
But I couldn´t find any further info on the iLogicForm Commands.
I have a iLogic Form which includes several Tabs. Can I control which Tab is active if I select a radio but which controls which feature is active in the part? I have attached a picture of the Form.
I am trying to put an immediate update box on my form in ilogic. I want to be able to change parameters on my form without updating the model. There is this option in the parameters window but not in the form. How can I accomplish this?
Can you have dropdowns in an ilogic FORM? For example I want to setup 5 choices for a custom iproperty. Then when I run the form I can pick from those 5 choices only? Please click "Accept as Solution" if this response answers your question.
i want to use pictures with my forms and was wondering if i can use them like the way i showed in attached image.
the CaseA image is the one i can currently use and CaseB is the way i want to use. My reason to do this is, i have alot of parameters to change and having both the picture and a menu below/above takes alot of space which also seems redundant.
Is there anyway to reference a form and its specific items in iLogic. For example, say I wanted to change a label on the form when the code ran. How would I do something like this?
I would like to know if it is possible to make a form with multiple forms, depending on the selection a could build a rectangle, or a cilynder or a cone.
I have a form used to select from pre-defined settings (case statements in the rule) and custom entry.
I have a drop down that provides the selections from the pre-defined stuff or custom with fields that show the results.
If custom is selected the user is prompted to enter data in popup dialog boxes which all works fine but I would rather select custom and enter the data in the fields on the form than in the popup. can that be done?
See the png files
I want to just enter the data in without the popup box
I have one particular file which will not allow me to add an iLogic form. When I select "Add Form" it does nothing. This only happens in this one file. I can open other files in the same session and they work fine. I can add iLogic rules to this file but I can't create forms.
I would like to split my form vertically. I have a number fo fields that are used to select options in my system. The fields span the width of the form which due to graphics used is fairly wide. I would like to add a discription field in line with and next to my selections.
I have an iLogic Form that I've created and implemented into our model template files. I am manually adding this Form to all existing files. It's a time consuming process of opening the files one by one and pasting in the same Form over and over.
Any way or program has created where it will take a Form opened in a model and paste that same Form into a selected group of files?
BTW I'm also having to do this to the Drawing Resources folder of Inventor IDW and DWG files as I have updated/modified our border design on the new templates. I want all of our existing drawing files to have the new border. So again I'm having to manually open each drawing file and paste in the Drawing Resources folder then clicking "Replace" any time it sees an existing name rather than click "New" as it would then give me duplicates of those names.
If I set this to true, then when I "place iLogic component", I don't get the form displayed or the parameter table or the model preview.
If set True, displays the form when placing this model as a component in an assembly. This setting affects Place Component and Place iLogic Component. If the template file has a form, this setting also affects Create In-Place Component.
I've done an Addin which contains a "Place iLogic Component" function. This funcion work properly and the iLogic form is opened at place component time. Now, i would like to be able to open the form after the insertion, for edition purpose. So, i'd like to open the iLogic form of an assembly component (occurence) with the context menu for example.
So, my question is : Is there a way to check if a part or an assembly contain an iLogic form and to open it through Inventor 2012 API ?
I'm trying to find a way to call a form in a skeleton part file from within a parent assembly file.
I can open the form from the skeleton part, then leave it open and update values even while the skeleton part is inactive or even closed. But I can't find out how to call it from the assembly file. Is this possible? I currently have to open the skeleton just to call up the form.
I can reference values or even add them in another form, but I am not allowed to change them in an assembly form, because they are (linked) reference parameters.
I have considered several workarounds, but this is how I really want it to work. I'm just not that familiar with the code to know if there's a way around. The code snippets only allow opening a form from the current document as far as I can see. I don't really want a global from because I'm only changing parameters in one file, not all.
I am trying to create a windows form within iLogic. Everything works except the lines defining the location on the controls. I keep getting the following error: 'New' cannot be used on an interface. The error refers to lines in the code that try to set the control location on the form. (i.e. "button1.Location = New Point(10,10)") Ihave pasted the code below and have it attached as well. I am in Inventor 2013.
AddReference ("C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETassemblyGAC_MSILSystem.Drawingv4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3aSystem.Drawing.dll")Dim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrenceTry oOccurrence = ThisDoc.Document.SelectSet.Item(1)Catch MessageBox.Show("Please select a component before running this rule.", "iLogic")
ilogic for converting dimensions imperial to metric form in sketch, part and assembly level
I have one task in this total models(parts and assemblies) having imperial dimensions but customer wants total dimensions in metric form with rounded value.
mean while all the dimensions directly convert to metric form dimensions are having many decimal places but customer wants ronded value like for example <1.5 is 2 and >1.5 is 1 like this. one more example is 2.56 is 3 and 2.46 is 2 like this.
