AutoCAD Inventor :: Where To Find Number Of Sheets Parameter
Sep 28, 2012
I have made a drawing template with a title block that has iProperties of Type Drawing Properties, Property, Number of Sheets <Number of sheets> although not listed as a Parameter. Someone suggested that I tag it this way. Similar to what is described as on page 545 of Mastering Inventor 2012 By Curtis Waguespack. I can find the iProperties of the Sheet Number in the Model but I cannot find where to modify the input for the “of” field. Or where does The Format Text, Type Drawing Properties, Property, <Number of sheets>, field link to?
And or what is this Edit Property Fields, dialogue box for. I cannot change “edit” any of the fields. Is it just me or what?
I'm using the "Part Number" parameter inside a block of text in my drawing, but when I export it to AutoCAD DXF 2010 format, the text in the exported file shows up as "<PART NUMBER>", instead of displaying the actual part number.
shouldn't sheets marked as "exclude from count" not be counted?
I tried this in both 2013 and 2012 to see if maybe AutoDesk broke it, but it doesn't work in either one. This is easily reproducible for me, a file shouldn't be necessary. Just open up (or create) a multi sheet drawing. Go to edit sheet on one or two of them and check the "exclude form count" box. Now create a new iLogic rule and put the following line into it:
MsgBox("This is the number of sheets in the drawing: " & ThisDoc.Document.Sheets.Count, VBOkOnly, "Number of Sheets")
I have user parameters that are no longer needed and are not being used anywhere. They each takes 4-5 seconds to delete, prior to 2012 this would happen instantly.
I got a deadline for my project, but I got a big problem:
"I cannot set the "parameter" for the End Value in Parameter Animate dialog"
For easy understand, let's see a example:
1. I got a part which has two parameters named: "A" and "MaxA" 2. I animate Favorited parameter A. 3. The End Value is MaxA_ (Everything is ok) 4. I finish Studio environment, then I change parameter MaxA_ from 200 mm to 400 mm 5. I turn back to Studio environment, the End Value now is "200 mm" (I want this will be MaxA_, so I can animate the flexible parameter).
show me how to keep the end value will be "MaxA_" after I change parameter?
I'm attempting to print from LR4 print module to a Canon Pixma Pro 9500 using a mac platform. I have 25 contact sheets to print (don't ask!!) and it's taken me 2 days so far and I have managed to print 18 of them. The printer is working. Lightroom appears to be working.
I am trying to publish to the CC a guide rail. The vendor of the rail gives me the option of entering the desired length of the rail. After that he gives me the option to choose between the length that I entered and a shorter and longer standard length witch can be delivered faster.
I want to do the same thing with my published part, but I cannot make a key parameter to change depending on the entered custom parameter. I want the user to make the next steps when inserting from the CC: 1- select the size of the rail; 2-select the type of the rail; 3- enter the desired length of the rail; 4- choose between the desired length and the 2 recommended lengths (I need these 3 lengths to be shown)
When working in the "Layout" when I want to work with the "viewport" always a window "Resource Manager Error" that says "Unable to find a row with the number 25900 in the resource AecXDisplayPropsData60" and one key "OK" Click the window again propodaet but when I try to work with the viewport poevlyaetsya again.
I was trying to install Adobe Camera Raw 6.6 and it gives an error.The Adobe tech gave me a link to a newer version of ps. It installed fine and also acr 6.6 but it wants a serial number and I can't find it....
How can I quickly find a Pantone Swatch number? The swatches are, for all intents and purposes, in random order... Typing a umber does not jump to the swatch.
this is in regards to a Lightroom 3.5 exported JPG. This was a year ago when I had been told it was best to export files with simple renumbering of them from 1 to x... instead of retaining the original RAW 4-digit file name.
I've currently lost the original files, and need to do a search for them via these 4 digits to see if I have them tucked away in any of my drives. I downloaded a metadata explorer, and it's telling me all the lightroom editing information, and everything else, but somehow does not have the simplest of information — that 4 digit original file name.
Am I grasping at straws or is there likely to be any way to find this information out? I don't work with metadata, so there wouldn't have been any customizations to how Lightroom configures this...
I got CS4 Masters Collection about 3 years ago when I was still using a Power PC G5 Mac. Since then, I've upgraded my setup with Intel machines. I'd like to use Adobe Premiere Pro on my Mac Book Pro, as I cannot run it on my G5. I found a download link on Adobe's servers for the old Adobe Premiere CS4 trial, and I downloaded it. Since it isn't installed on the G5, I should be able to use it on my Intel machine, right?
So I went into System Info on one of the other CS4 apps installed on my G5, and found the serial code, but it was shortened to 20 characters, when the registration requires 24. How can I find the last 4 characters so I can activate Premiere? I found a guide, but it only works for PC's.
I am trying to get the PDF macro to be hard coded to print all the sheets in an idw. I added this line (guessed at code basically), but it didn't work. Where do I find what the correct syntax should be for this code?
Is there a way to assign different dimension styles to different sheets in an idw. I have idw drawings with several sheets and use a couple of different dimension styles depending on what is on each sheet. I've created the dimension styles I want to use but I don't know how to assign a dimension style to a specific sheet. For now what I am doing is dimensioning, then as needed for the dimensions that need a different style, right click on the dimension and select new dimension style to changes its dimension style. I would like to assign dimension styles to specific sheets, is there a way to do this? Even though borders, title blocks, etc. are the same throughout the sheets, do I need to create different sheet formats to do this?
I am trying to modify the code Brian Ekins posted on Mod the Machine to renumber balloons across sheets. [uRL ....
It works great unless the item on the additional sheet is a sub-assembly. I believe it is because PartDef is declared as a PartComponentDefinition and there is nothing in the code to handle an assembly.
Dim partDef As PartComponentDefinition Set partDef = drawBOMRow.BOMRow.ComponentDefinitions.Item(1) partInfo(I - 1).ReferencedFile = partDef.Document.FullFileName
The Set partDef line was giving me a runtime error when it came to an assembly in the BOM until I added
"On Error Resume Next" at the start of the loop.
I tried changing the declaration to ComponentDefinition. It compiled fine, but didn't do anything. I think I'll have to add some duplicate code to handle an assembly in the BOM. Is there a better way to do this? Am I even on the right track?
I am trying to control the layer visibility on different sheets of the same drawing but have not quite figured it out yet.
We add a DXF sheet to drawings with flat pattern views to export to DXF for our laser. I wrote a VBA macro that adds the sheet, copies the flat pattern view and removes the dimensions to clean it up before creating the DXF. I am having a problem turning off the visibility of the bend lines on JUST the DXF sheet. I can turn bend lines and hidden lines off with this:
'Turn off bend lines and hidden linesFor Each oView In oSheet.DrawingViews 'Set the layers collection Set oLayers = oDrawingDoc.StylesManager.Layers 'Turn off all bend lines and hidden lines For Each oLayer In oLayers If Not InStr(oLayer.Name, "Bend Centerline") = 0 Or Not InStr(oLayer.Name, "Hidden") = 0 Then oLayer.Visible = False Else End If Next Next
but it turns them off on all sheets. I want to only turn them off on the DXF sheet. How would this be done?

My requirement is i need a programme to print inventor sheets in to PDF by using PDF995. And this should be created each sheet will be seperate PDF.
It need to ask rev number. my file name should be like "filename-sheetnumberrevision", for ex 870525 is my drawing number. PDF file name should be 870525-01A
We often have drawings with multiple sheets.Usually the first couple of sheets are devoted to identifying components and where they should be placed. The remaining sheets provide details on specific components (dimensions, tolerances, etc.).
It would be nice to be able to reference (associatively) other sheets, so it is easy to find information on a component when looking through the drawing package. For example, add a note that says "See sheet 12", and have the 12 update if that sheet (or drawing view?) changes location in the package.
Any intelligent way of referencing the sheet with the parent view? E.g. i put a detail or section view on Sheet 2 from a parent view on Sheet 1 and want to reference from what sheet the view is taken from.
Im working on something just now but ran into a problem when a new sheet is added after one that is excluded from count.
What i need is to re sort the sheets in the browser so the excluded ones go to the end. Im thinking i would need to loop through the browser nodes somehow but the skills elude me.
I am trying to find an automated way to rename multiple sheets when creating Inventor drawings.
I have an Inventor assembly, and I need to create a drawing for each component in this assembly. I have one Inventor Drawing with multiple sheets in it. Each sheet is for each part in the assembly.
I would like to loop though each sheet and rename the sheet name to the Part number of the part. Is there a simple way to do this though i Logic? And how would I go about doing something like this?
