AutoCAD Inventor :: Hatch From Sketched Symbol
Jun 21, 2004While editing and updating my idw drawing, somehow a sketched symbol disappeared. I really don't care about that. But this sketched symbol had a hatch in it (a fill actually) and this fill seam to be painted on my drawing right now. I can't select it, so i can't delete it. The only way it vanishes, is when i delete the whole view, with all of the dimensioning etc. i put on it. Anyway got a clue how to delete this hatch without deleting my view?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Delete Sketched Symbol From IDW
Nov 5, 2012How can I delete one Sketched Symbol from my Drawing ? It wont be in use in any sheet, i just need to delete it and the recreate with my code, so by this way the symbol is updated.
The other part of the code is created already, just need this part to delete. I found some ways but just delete the symbol from the sheet, not the source symbol. How can i delete it then ?

Mar 22, 2012I have a symbol that gets placed in a certian location on a sheet. If the sheet changes size i would like the symbol to relocate itself. Usually i could just find it, delete it and replace it but this one is different. It has 16 prompted entries that may have been populated by the user.
Easy option=Be able to move the symbol.
Difficult option=Load 16 prompted entries into the a dynamic array and replace save the symbol in the new location.
I did some reading on attributes, would adding an attribute to the sheet location allow the symbol to move with it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Spreadsheet Sketched Symbol?
Feb 1, 2011I would like to use a multi-value custom iProperty 'item_finish' in the part or assembly model to drive an iLogic rule.
'item_finish' would be 1-24 from the list.
The part file would have an embedded spreadsheet with column A corresponding to the 'item_finish'.
The spreadsheet would have column B containg long text descriptions of the finish process.
The ilogic rule must take the 'item_finish' number, find the corresponding row and then return the B column cell text to a user parameter 'defined_finish'.
The 'defined_finish' parameter can be called in a sketched symbol to describe the finish.
It appears this is all possible, but I cannot find enough information describing the snipped code requiremnets to accomplish the goal.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketched Symbol With Custom Property

AutoCAD Inventor :: Setting Color Of A Sketched Symbol
Dec 3, 2013Why does a sketched symbol have a SetColor function even though it doesn't do anything? For example, this is "legal" code, but it won't do anything.
oSymbol.Color.SetColor(255,0,0);
On the other hand, this is the proper method to set the color of a sketched symbol (I could not find this anywhere in the api)
oSymbol.Color = _mInventorApplication.TransientObjects.CreateColor(255, 0, 0);
AutoCAD Inventor :: Images In Sketched Symbol Won't Scale
Jun 7, 2012I'm using two small (JPG)images in a sketched symbol. But when I place the sketched symbol on a drawing, with another scale than 1 : 1, the images won't scale with it. For example, the images will remain outside the sketched symbol when scale is 1 : 2.
How can I make sure the images inside the sketched symbol scale with the symbol?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Font In Sketched Symbol?
Mar 26, 2013We have created 100's of drawings with inserted sketched symbols that has text which has been formatted with the font RomanS. Now that we have switched to DWF published documents, the font prints very light compared to Tahoma.
I was able to obtain all the text styles programatically and update the style to Tahoma. Unfortunately, updating the style does not effect text becuase the text was originally overriden to not use a text style.
Is there anyway via API to update the text in a sketched symbol to point it back to a Text Style?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Insert Sketched Symbol At Center Of Part Via C#
Feb 14, 2012I'm currently trying to automatically cycle through all the parts in a given assembly within a drawing and place a sketched symbol at the COG of each part using C# (Visual Studio Express 2010 with Inventor 2012). The main code snippet is as follows:
//'Sketch Symbols
SketchedSymbolDefinition symDef = oDoc.SketchedSymbolDefinitions[1];
int i = 1;
while (i <= oBOMRows.Count) {
BOMRow oRow1 = oBOMRows[i];
ComponentDefinition oCompDef = oRow1.ComponentDefinitions[1];
[Code] .....
I've tried several routes, but this is my basic approach. I feel like I am missing some GeometryIntent or something of that nature as the Sketched Symbols are showing up at the correct position but they are not associated with the given part (I've attached a screenshot of what is currently happening - the wipeouts you see should be displaying a property in them that is associated to the part). I also do not want the leader to be visible.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Create A Text Direct Inside On Sketched Symbol
Nov 1, 2012With iLogic, define some pre notes and when the user choose one option some notes are chosen too.The idea now is: Create a text direct inside on Sketched Symbol OR edit some textfields inside the Symbol.
The symbol could be one existent, so its not necessary to create it.
I got a code to create the text, and that works perfectly! Just what im trying now is create this text into the Symbol... I've tried many ways with reference from: URLs....The code to create the tet im usnig is this one:
' a reference to the drawing document. ' This assumes a drawing document is active. Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument ' a reference to the active sheet. Dim oActiveSheet As Sheet oActiveSheet = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet ' a reference to the GeneralNotes object Dim oGeneralNotes As GeneralNotes oGeneralNotes = oActiveSheet.DrawingNotes.GeneralNotes Dim oTG As TransientGeometry oTG = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry ' Create text with simple string as input. Since this doesn't use ' any text.
[code]....
but, if i could just edit one existent text filed into the symbol would be great too and one "extra doubt", in all the codes that i get here, i have to erase the "public sub" and the "set" from all code, am I doing something wrong ? I'm running directly from the iLogic window.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketched Symbol - Fill Text Box With White Color
Feb 2, 2012I want to fill the text box with white color so that the hatching in the views does not interfere with the text inside my text symbol.
as per my understanding this is not possible.. I thought of an alternative-- draw a rectangle instead of text box but was not able to find a way to make it fit to the length of the text. Note that : the text will be varying and so the text length.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Punch Converting Text To Sketched Symbol?
Nov 5, 2013I have been given the task of figuring out a way to have etching placed on our parts to show the part number of the part. The end goal is to get the parts laser cut but have the part number etched into the part.Is there a way to convert text (i.e. 12345) to a sketched symbol that the punch feature would recognize and then add it to the library? Right now we are using 2012 but will be upgraded to 2014 within the next 6 months.
