Is there a way to put a bunch of imates under one line code?
I have imate iInsert:1 thru iInsert:49 I need them all suppressed when an event happens.
I can get it to work one by one but that would be a lot of code.
Tried a few other thing but seems not to work.

how to suppress a pattern in *.iam by ilogic?
I used ilogic to suppress the main components, but the rest are not suppressed.
For example, I have component "A" and make it a pattern (Colum and Row are variable). How to use ilogic to suppress rest not just "A".

Lets say you have 100 Keps Nuts in an assembly. Named (KepsNut1,KepsNut2, etc)And you want to suppress them on and off.
Would there be a way to make an array 1-100 and just say suppress/unsupress "KepsNut" & array list of numbers.To basically add the two strings and find all the components in that array and turn them off or on.!
I am trying to suppress part that are labeled as "Reference" on the BOM Strutcture and I can't get the program to cycle through the subassemblies. The following code runs through all the components on the top-level assembly but I can't get it to cycle through the subassemblies.
oCompDef = ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinitionoAssemblyComponents = oCompDef.OccurrencesDim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrenceDim oSubOccurrence1 As ComponentOccurrenceFor Each oOccurrence In oAssemblyComponents If (oOccurrence.BOMStructure = BOMStructureEnum.kReferenceBOMStructure) Then Component.IsActive(oOccurrence.Name) = False Else Component.IsActive(oOccurrence.Name) = True End IfNext

I have a couple of dozen features in my part, of which only one will be active at any time. The feature tree may be subject to additions, so I am looking for an ilogic rule that will first suppress all of the features in the part, and then switch on the specific feature I require (using a parameter). Any code to suppress ALL features?

I'm trying to use ilogic to suppress some individual elements of a pattern but i couldn't find any command that can target component pattern elements. When i try to capture its current state with the right click menu it does nothing.
I can of course suppress the part within the element but then it doesn't update the BOM.
I need to suppress a pattern in an 2nd level subassembly. But is only able to do it in the same level where the pattern is placed etc:
If Length < 3000 mm Then
Component.IsActive("1 st level subassembly", "Name of pattern in 1nd level subassembly") = False
End If
But if i do it with an MakePath... etc.:
If Length < 3000 mm Then
Component.IsActive(MakePath("1 st level subassembly", "2 nd level subassembly", "Name of pattern in 2nd level subassembly")) = False
End If
If Length < 3000 mm Then
Component.IsActive(MakePath("1 st level subassembly", "2 nd level subassembly"), "Name of pattern in 2nd level subassembly") = False
End If
is it not possible to suppress a pattern by an MakePath?
I have set iLogic to change a rectangular pattern to a certain amount of occurrences depending on which is selected , i.e. 117 cavities, 140 cavities and 96 cavities. Only one is active (or unsuppressed ) at a time.
What I need to do is suppress the 4 corners of each pattern, considering there's only one pattern and is dynamic.
I have a bar and I want to place there several clips so that they are only moveable in one direction. Both of the parts have fitting iMates. When I place the first clip it works fine and the iMates get connected. But when I place the second the clip is draw elsewhere. Is it possible to use one half of an iMate more than once?

I'm working on a project in wikiHelp under Inventor tutorials, Content Center, Create iMates. When I pull the object up in an assembly I can create an iMate and it will show that I made one. But when i go to the next page (Place Content Manually Using iMates), I can't get the bolt to snap to the iMate inside the object, the bolt just stays in one position the whole time.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I place a part, such as a bolt, from the Content Center, it's immediately looking for the other half of an insert iMate. How do I make a part I created do that? I put an iMate in the part, but it had no effect.
It sure would save a bunch of time if this would work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a way that suppress the flange features of all the panels that will be insert in the assembly so i can suppress all the features at ones in a assembly and don't have to do that for each panel separately.
I have a assembly with parameters and i have a part with no geometry but have linked the parameters from the assembly. In my panel part i link the parameters to the part with no geometry.
When i use the parameter in the assembly to suppress the flanges that works the way i want it. But when i insert the panel part into that assembly it doesnot work.
The small cylinder was made first, then projected it to a sketch, made offset, and made the big cylinder, but i want to leave only the big cylinder alone. i want to suppress the small cylinder, but when i suppress the samll one both get suppressed.
How can i break this link, which was made by the projected geometry?
Even when i select the projected circle, right click and select Break Link, they still behave the same.
I often use multiple versions of components in my assemblies so I can validate the top level assy works in all it's expected configurations. To that end, if I have different versions of component A, I supress all except the version I am working with. I have discovered though, that supressing the component does not supress the contraints that component has to an unsupressed component in the assy.
The purpose of suppressing something is to essentially eliminate it from existance without deleting it from the file so it can be brought back quickly in all its glory.If I have to track down every contraint there is for a supressed component and supress them independently, that is an incredible consumption of time.
I have a weldment that shows all the preparations and weld beads in 3D. I need to detail out this weldment without the preparations/welds applied already.
I can't seem to find a way to suppress these features in the 2D drawing without going back to the weldment file and suppressing those features individually.
Can you force Inventor to ignore preparations and weld features in a 2D drawing? When I do my callouts for welds, I can't have it showing the weld/preparations in the drawing itself.
I created the drawing file using the weldment file as the base view. Running latest version of Inventor Pro.
I was wondering if there was a way to suppress a component in the main assembly, and keep it from appearing in the parts list whenever I create one in the idw. environment? I am creating an iassembly, and generating different file versions from the main assembly in my table. In order for me to create different versions off of this main assembly, it is required that I suppress certain sub assemblies or components. I can't get the suppressed componenets to not show up in my parts list when I create it. I turned off enabled and visibility and it still appears in the BOM. Creating a different level of detail doesn't even solve this.
I know I can manually not have it show up in the BOM, but it becomes very time consuming trying to make certain rows not appear in the BOM table.
I have a rectangular component pattern which started out with all components. As more structure was added around it I started supressing different elements to suit, now a piece of structure has gone thru element 1 but i dont seem to be able to supress it... is there an easy way to get rid of element 1 without having to redefine the pattern? (redefining causes me other problems)
