Dec 6, 2011I want to simply set a custom iproperty as the Description in each part file within my assembly. I can do this easily at part level with ilogic but I want to be able to run the rule from the assembly level and all the parts run the rule. I am struggling to find a way to do this.
I think this may be the best method I have found but I think it must be far easier?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Design - Why Work With Local Rule But Errors On External Rule
Dec 9, 2011I am working for customer with a simple item with his iLogic design. He has created a simple form to modify his iProperties. To modify the current material, a multi-value parameter was created and the following rule as a local rule;
"MultiValue.List("MATLIST") = iProperties.Materials
iProperties.Material = MATLIST"
He is now trying to make this an external rule but gets the following error
Error in rule: Mat2, in document: Mat2.iLogicVb
iProperties.Material: is probably a bad material name.
The more info tab says:
System.ArgumentException: iProperties.Material: is probably a bad material name.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Pass Variable From VBA To ILogic Rule?
Sep 20, 2011We are using Inventor 2011.
I have found a rouind about way to display document thumbnails in VBA in 64 bit windows 7 inventor.
The only piece of the puzzle I am missing is for a way to push a document object or a document file name into an iLogic Rule from VBA.
Below is a 64 bit thumbnail solution for VBA sans the input.
Essentially I am launching an iLogic Rule from VBA that pushes an inventor document object into a VB.NET dll.
The dll converts the iPictureDisp into a VB.NET image object, reduces the size then converts it into a byte array.
The byte array is passed back to VBA through the same iLogic Rule.
Once the byte array is received it is converted back into an iPictureDisp object.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Use Function In External Rule
Oct 28, 2013I have an ilogic external rule which contains functions that I use from rules in my local assembly document. I'm trying to access the value of a parameter in the document from the external rule's function. Attached is a simple version of what I'm trying to do. If I manually run the external rule, it seems to work just fine, but when I call on the function from a seperate rule, its unable to get the parameter value. I get an error stating, "'Parameter' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level."
'this is the external rule. if I run this manually, it works
Public Class test_functionsSub Mainmyresult = ""thisisatest(myresult)MsgBox(myresult)End SubFunction thisisatest(ByRef resultcreated As String)resultcreated = "it worked - " & Parameter("ParameterInDocument")End FunctionEnd Class

AutoCAD Inventor :: Run External Rule In Occurrences?
Jan 29, 2013Is it possible to run an external rule in assembly occurrences?
You have RunRule in Component, But it does not seem to work with external rules
I referenced to occurrences and opened it using ThisApplication.Documents.Open(filepath, False)
Then i tried calling the same external rule. I thought it would run the external rule in the opened file,
but I ended up with a infinite loop on the main assembly.
Is there a way to run your rule in every occurrence with external?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Select Case In External Ilogic Rule
Sep 6, 2012I've made an External rule in Ilogic that must read a parameter value (Thickness) to set a value in a property (StockNumber).
The value is not written to the property by Using 'Select Case', see code. There is no error or something like that. So what am I doing wrong?
Tested in an internal rule, where Select Case = <Thickness> instead of Parameter ("Thickness") and that works fine.....
Select Case Parameter("Thickness")Case 2iProperties.Value("Project", "Stock Number")="686001"Case 4iProperties.Value("Project", "Stock Number")="686002"Case 3iProperties.Value("Project", "Stock Number")="686003"End SelectiLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic / Run Assembly-level Rule From Component Rule?
Aug 2, 2013I need a way to run a rule which is saved in my top-level assembly using iLogic rule which is saved in a part file in the parent assembly.
I have even tried using an external rule in a txt file, but that gives the error "Component: This function can only be used in an assembly." - which makes no sense to me. I hope I am just missing something simple. I cant believe with all its other strengths, that iLogic would be so limited in that regard. Why is there not simply a snippet under the 'Run Other' that allows you to specify an assembly file and the rule name? (like there is for running a rule in a component from the assembly)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Pass Parameter To DLL Using ILogic
Mar 26, 2013I have built a vb interface using a tutorial from AU. Now I would like to do the same without the interface.
Inventor uses ilogic to pass parameters to the dll - the dll does the number crunching & returns values to Inventor - no interface required.
The tutorial uses an OK button to fire values back & forth - how can I do this without a button? I would like this to fire in the background without a form appearing.

Sep 19, 2012I'm trying to use the PATH array feature on 2013 to array stairs, and I can't get the array to be 100% accurate. It seems like CAD rounds the decimal to the nearest 3/4" which could be causing the problem.
I set my run to 10.5" and rise to 7.25", array along the angle of the stringer, and there's always a small overlap on the stairs. The "distance between" should be 1'-209/256" and CAD rounds it to 1'-3/4" which is where I believe the error is. Is there any way to fix this or array this correctly? Otherwise...back to the COPY method I suppose.
AutoCAD Inventor :: (VBA) Write Multiple Prompted Entry Fields In One Pass?
Oct 17, 2013Is it possible to write multiple prompted entry fields down in a single pass? As it is now, you can see the taskbar reporting as it writes down each line.
Essentially i've got 6 different fields i'm trying to write down using code like shown below:
If oTB.GetResultText(oTitleBox1) <> Me.Title1.Value Then Call ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ActiveSheet.TitleBlock.SetPromptResultText(oTitleBox1, Title1.Value)End IfIf oTB.GetResultText(oTitleBox2) <> Me.Title2.Value Then Call oTB.SetPromptResultText(oTitleBox2, Title2.Value)End If
Just wondering if there's a way it can be written down in a single pass to save time or if it's a limitation of prompted entry text.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Bolted Connection To Pass Through A Component And Machined Plate
Nov 26, 2012I have been working on a large assembly and I am trying to get a bolted connection to pass through a component and a machined plate. I have been using the cocentric option to complete many other holes up to this point, but not through a machined surface.
When I attempt this, I get two errors saying:
Design Accelerator Doctor
1. Failed to add sketch for a hole
2. Failed to create a hole
My questions are:
Is there a way around this Or is this a problem that I am going to have to work around?
Or
Is there a better way to get a hole/bolt through this assembly?

Apr 18, 2012I want to create a rule that will warn the user when the plate thickness they are using is not standard. I have already created a multivalue parameter for plate thickness, which lists all standard steel plate thickness's and also allows for custom values.
I was hoping I could create a rule that would prompt a dialogue box warning when the user creates a custom value for plate thickness.
I know this can be done, but like I said, Im bloody useless with iLogic and find it hard to come across relevent examples and/or tutorials online.
