AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Remove Custom IProperty With ILogic

Aug 12, 2013

I am migrating our old Inventor data to our new system. I will do an ilogic script for that. 

I know how to add custom iProperties with iLogic but how can I remove them? Is it possible with iLogic? I would like to clean out all old iProperties that we don't need anymore.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Use ILogic To Change Custom IProperty In Several Components At Once

Mar 25, 2013

I've been using iLogic. I'm creating a template assembly that will be used for multiple jobs. Therefore, the job number will be changing. I want a custom iProperty in ALL parts and sub-assemblies (cleverly call it "Job #" maybe) that I can include an a separate property called "Drawing #" which whose value will be [some text]-<Job #>-[some more text]. I want to be able to update all the "some text" parts manually for each component, but I want the Job # to update automatically. I need this property because I have a column in all my Parts Lists called "Drawing #" which tells the drawing number for any given part or assembly.

Ultimately what I want to do is open a text or Excel file, enter the job number, open my Inventor drawing, and have every Drawing # entry in every parts list magically update to the correct job number.

I've managed to use iLogic to do just that with a single .ipt/.iam file. But I have dozens upon dozens of components in the main assembly. I'd like to run some rule or hit some button or do something that will cause the Job # property to update for ALL sub-assemblies and parts, so that all my parts lists reflect the change.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Rule To Change Custom IProperty

Dec 11, 2012

I am after writing part of rule for ilogic,i need the rule to fill out a custom property with information for me. I have a part that has 2 parameters

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Create Custom IProperty In Sub-component

Apr 1, 2013

I found this code to create a custom iProperty in the current, open document:
 
Dim propertyName As String = "MyProperty"Dim propertyValue as String = "Test Value"customPropertySet = ThisDoc.Document.PropertySets.Item("Inventor User Defined Properties")Try prop = customPropertySet.Item(propertyName)Catch ' Assume error means not found customPropertySet.Add("", propertyName)End TryiProperties.Value("Custom", propertyName) = propertyValue 

I have a iLogic rule that goes through each component of an assembly, counts how many times it occurs in the assembly, and then assigns that value to an iProparty (i.e. it inserts the total quantity of the part in some iProperty). Currently, however, it assigns the value to a default iProperty value, "Authority". I'd like, instead, for it to assign it to a custom iProperty called "Total QTY". However, I don't know how to tell Inventor to do the above code for a component in the assembly rather than the assembly itself. Below is my entire code. I've labeled where I'm guessing the above code should go. How I'd modify the above code to create the iProperty in the component being processed by the rule at that point?

Current
 
''True comment: Begin '''Commented-out Begin '''PartDocumentObject = 12290''AssemblyDocumentObject = 12291Dim openDoc As DocumentopenDoc = ThisDoc.DocumentDim docFile As DocumentIf openDoc.DocumentType = 12291 Then''If the open document is an assembly:''For each document referenced in this document:For

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Formula - Measure Length / Width And Thickness Of A Part

Apr 26, 2012

I am trying to create a iLogic Rule that will measure the Length, Width and Thickness of a part and ut it into the custom fields we have. I am having a hard time remembering how to get it to do it from the assembly level. I want to run this on the assembly and have it populate all the parts inside of it. The code below will do it for a part but what is it I add to get it to drill down into the assembly?
 
iProperties.Value("Custom", "THICKNESS")=Measure.ExtentsHeight
iProperties.Value("Custom", "WIDTH")=Measure.ExtentsWidth
iProperties.Value("Custom", "LENGTH")=Measure.ExtentsLength
 
Then I want to add this formula to the Stock Number iProperty = <Length> X <Width>   I can get it to add the values but I can not get it to add the formula to the stock number.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Link Standard IProperty To Custom IProperty?

Aug 7, 2012

I'm looking to see if there is a way to link the revision number to a custom iProperty in the same part.  Our laser requires a specific output for programming, but I only want this to show up on actual lasered parts as we don't need it on parts that are sawcut.  Basically what I would like to do is create a custom iProperty that I can link to the title block for that reads RV:<Revision>.  Is there a way to do this?  I'd rather not create a separate drawing template for lasered parts as we've got about 100 templates for our various customers the way it is.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal Flat Pattern Size - Incorrect Length

Apr 30, 2013

After having a formed sheet metal part finish the wrong size (.100" long on all sides), I discovered a glitch with the sheet metal flat patterns sizes being. 

I created two identical parts, one in IV2013 and one in IVP2014, and came up with two different flat patterns. The two parts are 100% identical. The volume is identical for both, and I did an assembly overlay to double check (everything lined up perfect). However, the flat pattern on the IV2014 part was 0.130" shy of what it should be (total length in both directions). 

I haven't been able to recreate this (happened with this part and with a different part that we had formed), but you shouldn't ever have to worry about something like this. I created the same part in 2014 for a second time from scratch and it then came out to the correct dimensions, which worries me even more that this is an intermittent problem. 

The JUNK file is the one with the incorrect length. 

Also, another IVP2014 issue I have been having is when saving a drawing as an AutoCAD drawing it saves it as a 2013 AutoCAD in a zip file instead of a 2007 as a normal file like I have it set up to. If I click "Options" when saving, then click cancel without selecting anything, it saves it correctly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Use ILogic To Set Size And Length Of A Part

Oct 26, 2011

I have created a ilogic rule that should set the size and the cut length of my parts. Most of the time the rule behave as I want it to. But sometime it gives me a error. See attached picture. By the way, I have included this rule in my custom content center parts (beam's etc). The rule is:

'Turn off workfeatures
ThisDoc.Document.ObjectVisibility.AllWorkFeatures = False

'check if the part has any geometry
If Measure.ExtentsLength="0" Then

AutoCAD Inventor :: Custom Sheet Size Using ILogic

Jan 15, 2013

I made a form that allows the user to enter in a custom sheet size.  Using the API I am changing the Drawing Sheet Size Enumerator to the Custom Sheet size which allows the user to enter in custom values.  That part is all working fine.  My problem is that when a custom size is used in my title block it says that the size is "Custom Size (mm)".  I know that the API uses cm for the sheet size units so I have the code convert the values into cm. 

In the sheet settings window built into inventor it has the option for Custom Size (inches) and Custom Size (mm).  How do I change whether it is inches or mm?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Remove Bend Extents Line In Flat

Mar 21, 2013

If there is a way to remove the bend extents line when you create flat pattern.  I don't mean in the drawing, the actual flat itself.  My reasoning for this is when i transfer the flat into my nesting program, the bend extents lines transfer too.  See attached img.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Save As IProperty

I have a template part that I would like to save automatically once the parameters dialog box is closed.  I would also like the Save As filename to automatically be filled in with a iProperty named "Part Name".  I already have the "Part Name" description grabbing information from parameters.  Is this possible? And is the best way to trigger the event after an "iProperty change" or "Any Model Parameter Change"?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Access To Filename IProperty

Oct 13, 2011

I am trying to use the iProperties.Value("part1", "Summary", "iProperty") function to get the filename or complete filepath of a component within a subassembly. I know that these iProperties exist because I can insert them onto a drawing, and I see them in the general tab of the iProperty window.

However, when I try something like:

filename = iProperties.Value("part1", "General", "Filename")

I get an error message indicating that the General tab can't be found. How might I go about getting this filename iProperty, or is there an easier way?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Measure Extents Snippet And Move Face

Nov 2, 2011

We use the snippets from iLogic on all of our parts to measure the length, width or height of our parts. However, we have noticed that when a 'Move Face' operation or a 'Replace Face' operation is used, the length measured does not seem to take into account the Move/Replace operations.

Are the Move/Replace operations different than other features like Extrude/Revolve? Is there something "ghost-like" about them??? The edges work fine on the drawing side, so I'm not sure what is different. Maybe it is the iLogic snippet?

In regards to it being the snippet, is there another code I can use that doesn't require specific feature or part information built in?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Tie Engraved Or Embossed Text To Part Number IProperty

Oct 26, 2012

I had wanted to find a way to engrave/emboss the part number on a part model and have it be parametrically tied to the part number iProperty.  Since it doesn't appear that I can create a text box and insert the iProperty directly, here's what I did to work around this.  (I setup my part templates to have this out of the box....)

1.  Within, the IPT file, add a user text parameter called "PartNo" and set its initial value to any text value.

2.  Create your sketch for your text to be engraved.  Insert the User parameter you just created.

3.  Create the engraving/embossing for your text.

4.  Create the following iLogic rule:

' Requires a User Text Parameter called "PartNo" prior to running' Set the appropriate event trigger to tasteIf Parameter("PartNo") <> iProperties.Value("Project", "Part Number") ThenParameter("PartNo") = iProperties.Value("Project", "Part Number")InventorVb.DocumentUpdate()End If

5.  I set this rule to fire using the "iProperty Change" event trigger.  So if the iProperty is set or changed, your text will update.  Obviously, you can set this to run with whatever trigger you like.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copy Leader With Custom IProperty Fails?

Dec 21, 2011

I have gotten in the habit of using a leader text with a custom iproperty to do material call outs on my drawings. I have been doing the first one then copy/pasting the leader onto each piece i want to call out. 

This worked flawlessly in 2010 and has worked well previously in 2012. For some reason it is not working at all in this particular .idw.

work flow is to create the first instance, copy. right click outside the view border and select paste. Then attach to as many different parts as needed.

attached is the error message I get.

The custom iproperty is text. 1/2 a36 or 4x4x3/8 Angle
