I have a drawing with several tables that are inserted Excel objects. In some cases, the tables are truncated after the tenth row (although some tables longer than ten rows are not truncated). I can't find any difference between the tables that would explain it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing AutoCAD 2010, and I'm having problems printing with one dwg, that I've had to copy an Excel Spreadsheet into. The spreadsheet was created with Excel 2007, and has quite a bit of text in it, and I'm trying to print it on an E size sheet, to an HP Designjet 4000. AutoCAD hangs up each time I try to print this, and my computer gets a message indicating that I'm low on disk space, even tho I do have plenty of space. It's like Autocad is taking more resources than it normally should. How I can insert this spreadsheet into AutoCAD and be able to print it? I've inserted the spreadsheet in model space, and the titleblock/border is in paperspace. I've tried printing to pdf and exporting to other formats to see if that will work, but AutoCAD keeps hanging up. Any other AutoCAD dwg works fine to print to the printer. It's just this one file with a spreadsheet inserted into it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create excel files out of BOM for an assembly that contains a step file from customer.
That step file is a subassembly that contains several files.
So now my issue is if i could modify the BOM so that i add several rows. Basically i need to add in bom rows that are pointing to inexistent parts. Besides creating a subassembly and add there several empy parts is there any other way?
How can i stretch an inserted image as ole obj with different dimension of x & y.
i tried stretching it but its width and length is the same, can't properly put it in a specified area in my working space..
I am having difficulty adding two new rows to an iPart I made and published previously. Is there a way to do this without using the API?
Since it's a custom iPart not a standard CC part I would have thought this would be fairly straightforward but I can't work it out.
How to do this ? After ok seems to keep the single-row text.. I wish to fit that margin border.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created two table rows in an iAssembly that I would like to have a iLogic code written for.
What do I need to use to trigger between these two, when, for instance, a certain numeric value is entered in the parameters? Within the assembly file, when I use the iPart.ChangeRow (or iAssembly.ChangeRow) and put the . I am filename in the first spot, it says it cannot find the file.
This is what I am using, and the error states it cannot find the . i am file I am referencing.
IfParameter("Window_Cutout_Vertical")<=1AndParameter("Window_Cutout_Horizontal")<=1TheniAssembly.ChangeRow("A60_RHR_Door_Assembly.iam", "A60_RHR_Door_Assembly-02")ElseIfParameter("Window_Cutout_Vertical")>1AndParameter("Window_Cutout_Horizontal")>1TheniAssembly.ChangeRow("A60_RHR_Door_Assembly.iam", "A60_RHR_Door_Assembly-01")EndIf
I am trying to switch component rows within my assembly file but can't seem to do so. All of the files are generated, yet and still I am not able to change component rows based on user parameters. Files are attached.
My code is as follow in Ilogic
MultiValue.Setlist("Material", "1", "2")
If Material = "2"
iPart.ChangeRow("RING", "RING-03:1")
End If
When I put a row deep enough in a form, i.e. under several groups, tab groups, or other rows, the rows stop working properly.

When I link in an excel document to my model all parameters in that excel gets the unit (mm).
How can I change this? For instance I want some of the parameters to be an angle.
Recently I have been trying to build table driven products and ipart tables, but when I copy a member to create a new part number, upon exiting the iassembly author I get the following message "excel installation is required for this operation. failed to launch excel". I have a fully functional version of 2010 Excel installed which has been used so it should be recognized in the windows registry. I am running Windows 8 and Autodesk Inventor 2014.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue plotting or exporting a dwg to pdf. When I have a dwg with a linked excel table and want to plot a layout, everything plots except the excel table. I'm running LT 2012, windows 7 pro (64-bit). I send the same file over to a friend running LT 2011 an he adjust the viewport boundaries slightly and he encounters no problem either plotting or exporting to pdf. I've tried the same with no success. My Adobe Reader is up to date as well.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI made an assembly, placed a part and a sketch and constrained it, the first assembly file.
I want to turn it over, like in the second assembly.
The matemate and mateflush options in the constrain dialog box yield the same result, unlike in the tutorial:

I have a drawing on which I am going to need to show some photos of the assembly in its installed condition. When I attempt to insert an image, I get very low image quality that is giving me flashbacks to mid-90's video games. I do not get any sort of errors, missing images, file names displayed instead, etc. The image appears, but simply looks terrible, both on the screen and if printed or converted to PDF.
I have tried inserting the image as JPEG, PNG, and BMP, all with identical results. It is not unique to these images, and in fact occurs even if I try inserting images that Inventor created in the first place. Searching on these forums indicates that changing file associations for BMP files to Paint may be the answer, but most of these posts are rather old.
Since my IT department has me locked out of changing these associations for myself, I'd like some confirmation that this is still the likely cause before I go through the red tape of an IT service request.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make this assembly flexible in that the bar will flex so the "s-clip" can hold the 2 handles together. I read some of the forums about the scissors assembly in the autodesk folders and I can see it working in that assembly btu can't figure out how to make it apply to mine. It is basically one of those camping grills that makes hot sandwiches or pies.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIf I insert a part with my own work planes in an assembly, I can programatically get the first 3 standard workplanes and also the non standard workplanes.
BUT if I make the part a table based iPart, I cannot find the extra non standard workplanes in the WorkPlanes of the part component definition, just the first standard three (XY YZ XZ).
(I've tried this in C++ COM and in VBA).

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a model with 12 circular connectors placed (constrained) in the housing surface. well 11 of them are. The last one WILL NOT behave. when i use the insert constraint (or any constraint) the model of the connector modifies itself and becomes a new model with errors.
i have deleted it from the assembly, saved, closed, opened and when re - inserted have the same problem.
I have re-saved the connector model from its original location to the library folder, re-inserted and got the same problem. The connector model is fine in the assembly up until i try to constrain it.
all the connectors were drawn the same way, using parameters, and saved into the same library folder.
I don't understand how adding a constraint can cause a model in a diffferent folder to be modified.

I have a lot of AutoCAD files which have embedded OLE objects (excel) inside. I want to be able to export only the text from the Excel OLE object using VBA (or Lisp, I don't mind which) without having to fire up the OLE application (i.e. Excel).
The embedded OLE objects have no link to any external files - so I imagine it must all be held somehow inside the AutoCAD file, but how it can be accessed?!!?
I have a object data table attached to many polygon. In this table i have 2 line of data. I want to export in a tabloid like microsoft excel. I know autocad have a command to do this...

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am running into some trouble with user parameters that have been inserted into a dimension's "text box". I sometimes hide the dimension itself and insert these parameters so that iLogic can manipulate the upper & lower tolerance limits for a dimension.
The problem seems to arrise anytime one of the dimension's arrows becomes detached from the drawing (and perhaps for other reasons, too, although this is the only clear cause so far). I can reattach the arrow and the dimension seems healthy again, but if I go into the text editor, I notice that the link to any parameters that I've inserted has been lost. They appear as they were last set, but will not update if the parameters themselves change.
Is there a better workaround for this, or can we expect a solution in IV2013? I've invested close to a year's worth of work expecting this method to perform properly, and it will be a letdown if there's no solution.
I don't want to inventor to ground a part when I insert it into assembly. How do I turn this off?
