AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Trigger In Drawing
Sep 18, 2013I have a few assemblies setup that are controlled with a bunch of iLogic rules to modify all related parts when parameters are changed at the assembly level. I also have an opening message that pops up when the assembly model is opened (After Open Document trigger) to tell people how to use the parameters to make modifications.
Now, when this assembly model is placed into a drawing I am getting random pop ups of the opening message when placing views of additional models in the same drawing. If you open the drawing and try to place a base view of another model, Inventor stops to think for a minute or so before having the opening message of the iLogic controlled model pop up. The only event trigger for this message is "After Open Document" and the model is not being opened; why it is being triggered in the drawing and/or how to make it stop?
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Save Drawing As DWG
Apr 24, 2012Is there a way in an inventor drawing rule to do a "save as" which saves the drawing as an Inventor dwg file rather than an AutoCAD dwg file?
The below saves as AutoCAD which is ok but I need the outputted drawing to be linked to the model. I don't want the code to save the entire assembly as this is done further down the line. I also don't want to save the current inventor dwg drawing from which the rule is run as this is just a template drawing.
ThisDoc.Document.SaveAs(ThisDoc.Path&"2D_DRAWINGS"&iProperties.Value("Custom", "Drawing No.")&" (Rev "&Parameter("BEAUFORT_ARRANGEMENT_3.iam.DRAWING_REVISION_NO")&")"&".DWG", True)
AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Sheet ILogic
Apr 19, 2013 have 2 questions
1.) If you look at the attached screenshot in the Edit Sheet form there is a sheet "Revision" input field is it possible to fill this out via iLogic?
2.) We have some custom E size sheets (height always 34in width varies 5ft, 6ft, and 8ft) when we select on of these sheet sizes that we created it will display "Custom Size (inch)" when using the sheet property <sheet size> in the title block not the name of that we gave these sheets (Which creatively enough is "E-5ft", "E-6ft", and "E-8ft"). I thought I had this solved by doing this:
Dim oSheetSize As String
oSheetSize = ActiveSheet.Size
If oSheetSize = "Custom" Then
iProperties.Value("Custom", "SheetSize") = "E"
Else iProperties.Value("Custom", "SheetSize") = oSheetSize
End If
then change the titleblock sheet size field from sheet property <sheet size> to custom drawing properties <SheetSize> this all works great if there is only 1 sheet in the IDW where it fails is if there is more then one sheet.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Add Block To Drawing With ILogic?
Jul 4, 2012I recently start to use ilogic in inventor and discover this powerfull tool for all the daily task to be done...
I would like to add an autocad block in a drawing with some ilogic coding. Through this forum i found how to insert a sketched symbol but no how to insert a block. And convert my block into a sketch would be quite difficult...
where could i found a list of all the ilogic command??

Apr 18, 2013I'm trying to put together some iLogic code to either check all the drawing views within a drawing sheet are all the same scale, or make the views all the same scale. These drawing sheets consist of a number of individual parts (they aren't projected views from a single part).
This is for welded assemblies. We are required to generate a profile drawing sheet outlining each part that makes up the assembly. We send these out as dwg files for laser cutting so its important that the views are all the same scale.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Check-in Drawing Into Vault
Jan 8, 2014I'm wondering if it is possible to check-in drawing into vault using i-logic?
If you check-in a drawing into our vault, it automaticly exports a .dwf to a storage server. We also have a simple button for making .pdf of the drawing to sent to the customer.
What i want to ensure is that the .dwf file and the .pdf file are the same. So when i press "make a .pdf" the rule will save my document, make a .pdf and (if possible) check it into vault. So from that point the .pdf for the client and the .dwf on the server are the same.

What is the solution for updating drawing template (like Model Description, Drawing no.).
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Overide A Dimension On Drawing
May 17, 2012So my problem is that I need to include a line on a part drawing that isn't related to the part itself. I need to be able to override the dimension of the line I sketched so that I can include it in my drawing and update the dimension without having to change anything else on the part.
Basically, I want an iLogic rule to overide a dimension, and I don't know how to do that.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Can ILogic Apply To Other Parts In Drawing
May 4, 2012If I draw a flat square, and then a flat circle next to it, can I do things using iLogic that will make the two seperate parts interact? such as say 'if the circle contacts the square, then make the square become a circle too' or something like that?

In between the for/next loop is where I want to access the current BOM and change it's header depending on the related .iam/.ipt.
AutoCAD Inventor :: K-Factor Note On Drawing Using ILogic
Jun 7, 2012Any way, using iLogic, to get the K-Factor from a flat pattern sheet metal view on an idw drawing and add it as a note.
I'd like a rule that would access the flat pattern on the drawing, get the K-Factor value and then create a note that says, for example, "K-Factor Value = 44".
I see in the iLogic Snippets there's a Get Active KFactor under the Sheet Metal section, but I don't know where to start.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Update And Save Assembly Through ILogic In Drawing?
Jul 10, 2013as a part of automating manufacturing drawings, am trying to include ilogic code in the drawing , that would accept values from the user and store it as "user parameters" and make corresponding changes in the inventor drawing file.So, to replicate my issue on a smaller scale, i had created 2 parts and created an assembly out of these 2 parts. I used the assembly in my drawing.
In the Drawing i created a user parameter .. say "external_param". I am opening the drawing and changing the value of the user parameter through the (Fx) parameter table.
doc = ThisDoc.DocumentIf external_param >= 50 And external_param <= 99 ThenParameter("block_1.ipt.d0") = 15 'change the length of the blockParameter("block_1.ipt.d14") = 3 'change the number of holes in the blockElseIf external_param >= 100 And external_param <= 199 ThenParameter("block_1.ipt.d0") = 40Parameter("block_1.ipt.d14") = 5ElseIf external_param >= 200 And external_param <= 299 ThenParameter("block_1.ipt.d0") = 80Parameter("block_1.ipt.d14") = 6ElseIf external_param >= 300 And external_param <= 399 ThenParameter("block_1.ipt.d0") = 160Parameter("block_1.ipt.d14") = 9End IfRuleParametersOutput()iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True'InventorVb.DocumentUpdate()
As you can see, i have commented out InventorVb.DocumentUpdate() , im not quite sure what would accomplish the update and save of the assembly document in the background (without prompting for a save/update). I have also tried thisDoc.Save and thisdoc.update. Using these 2 commands along with the InventorVb.DocumentUpdate() or iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone caused Inventor to Crash.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Coding To Create Automated Drawing?
Feb 14, 2012I'm attempting to create a model that autmotaically derives ready-to-go drawings. I've gotten pretty far in doing so but have a few issues with regards to dimensioning. As I'm sure you're aware, when the model changes, a dimension to that feature, which has been removed, is also deleted and some those dimensions do not return once the model is changed back.
I have looked into using different view representations, but have found that they do not accommodate feature supression.
Is there a way to program in the dimensioning of a view.
Create center points for of the holes and center lines.
And for a feature note such as "Hole and Thread" dimensioning, when the model expands, the leader and text length do not change and proceed into the view. Is there a way to fix or anchor the text to a certain spot on the drawing, and have the leader length expand and change accordingly to that point.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Open And Update Drawing From Assembly Via ILogic
Nov 12, 2012The right click context menu on the top level assembly (on the model tree in Inventor) has the option of 'Open Drawing'.
Is there a way to do that via iLogic? Unfortunately I can't figure it out if there is. I would like to open and update the relevant drawing.
Also have tried it the other way around, that is to run my rues in the assembly from the drawing since the drawing is the parent. But I am not sure how to reference the assembly.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Drawing Population Using Presentation Views?
Apr 22, 2013I've poked around a little and made simple rules to manipulate iproperties, save filetypes, change drawing borders etc. but am now looking for a bit more and am struggling (i.e. completely lost.) I want to automate the creation of an assembly drawing from an existing presentation file. Here is the basic break-down:
Assumed Pre-Requisites:
- Using Inventor 2011
- Presentation(*.ipn) file is present and saved in same directory
- Each presentation VIEW is numbered and named (e.g. "1 - PCB Installation", "2 - Battery Insertion", etc.)
iLogic/VBA Code should:
- Select presentation file (either auto or allow user browse/select)
- Create a page in the drawing (*.idw) for each VIEW from the presentation file
- Create a base view on each page for each presentation VIEW (in numbered order)
- Each base view orientation will be derived from Saved Camera
- Each drawing page will be named using the name from the corresponding presentation VIEW name
- Each page will have a prompted entry in the Title Block that will be defaulted to the presentation VIEW name

AutoCAD Inventor :: Reference Drawing Sheet Number With ILogic?
Dec 11, 2012How to reference the drawign sheet number using iLogic? I see on the snippets on the side a way to reference the sheet name, but I only want the number. To get the name it is ActiveSheet.Name, but ActiveSheet.Number does not work. Getting the name give something like ASSM:1, so if there was a way to take that and subtract the colon and everything before it that would work also. I am not a programmer, I've just taked some programs I found online and modified them a little to do what I want to do, but this is holding me back a bit.
Overall, I'm trying to modify the drawing view label to have a project number, referenced from the drawign iProperties, a view label, and sheet number, and then save that info in an iproperty of the part, and then reference that in the BOM so it automatically labels all of the views and fills out a column of the BOM to reference which page and view to find the parts of the assembly. I have everything working except for the sheet number.
