I could add an empty text value within an multi value list in inventor 2010, but I don't think i can do the same thing in 2013, is there a possible way to do it?
Btw, when by an empty text value I dont mean a space.
I am trying to create a form, so that my designers can pick their parameters when they first start a new part.
For this form I have created a multi-valued parameter for them to select from.
My issue is, why does Inventor not list fractions in the correct order.
What I would like to see:
1/8"
3/16"
1/4"
5/16"
3/8"
7/16"
1/2"
9/16"
5/8"
11/16"
3/4"
13/16"
7/8"
15/16"
1"
What Inventor lists:
1"
1/2"
1/4"
11/16"
13/16"
15/16"
3/8"
3/16"
5/8"
5/16"
7/8"
7/16"
9/16"
Is there a way to get Inventor to list these parameters in order of value?
Is there a way to change the values available in a Multivalue list, based on another parameter?
I'd like to achieve:
When material is "MDF", available thicknesses are 6,9, 12
When material is "PLY", available thicknesses are 15,18, 25
I kinda solved this already but it's not quite right. I basically mad the list a list of custom parameters, and changed the values of these parameters based on the material parameter. :
'------iLogic--------------
If Material = "MDF" Then
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 1") = 6
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 2") = 9
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 3") = 12
Else If Material = "PLY" Then
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 1") = 15
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 2") = 18
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 3") = 25
End If
MultiValue.SetList("Thicknes",iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 1"),iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 2"),iProperties.Value("Custom", "Thickness 3")
MultiValue.UpdateAfterChange = True
'------------------End----------------------------
This works pretty much, when changing between the materials the value currently selected remains in the list until another is selected from the list. Once another value has been selected, only the correct values are available, but immediately after the material has been changed the thickness for that material is incorrect and could lead to operators specifying an unavailable thickness.
I am trying to populate a multi-value user parameter with a list composed of the various materials available from the iProperties "Physical" tab. So far I have this:
For Each material In iProperties.Materials
Bracket_Material.Items.Add(material)
Next
iProperties.Material=Bracket_Material
Running the Rule gets this error message:
Rule Compile Errors in Material_Rule, in _Mounting_bracket.ipt
Error on Line 2 : 'Bracket_Material' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.
I think I am doing the "Bracket_Material.Items.Add(material) " line wrong, but I don't know enough VB to fix it. It seems to me it IS declared in the Parameters table - isn't adding the parameter to the parameter table sufficient to declare it?
Eventually I want to add the Bracket_Material Parameter to a form so the user can select material from drop down list and assign it to part.
When is the functionality of generating a cut list from the multi body part file going to happen?
This is available in Solid Works and ver frastrating its not for Inventor.
I have an iLogic template part that has a multi value parameter. In this case the product code can be selected from a list of 4 codes. In futre we may need 5 and the 5th may need to be available to older parts.
I would like to avoid having to add the 5th as an option to every part we've ever made when the 5th becomes required.
I'd like to have the list of codes stored in an external file (Possibly an xml) and the template part reference that file to acquire it's list of available codes. That way I can add codes to the xml and all the files will have their list of available codes updated.
IV2012 API with VB:
How can i add an item to a Multi-Value-List of an existing User Parameter in Inventor2012 (Accessing API with Visual Basic) ?
My idea is for example:
uParams.Item(i).ExpressionList.AddItem(As String)
The problem is, that such a function "AddItem" doesn't exist.
I made a prompted entry, for example, in a sketched symbol,again, for example.
Now i edit the text and want to write a static text, not a prompted entry and none from that list, but i cannot get the empty, white, window, like in the picture, and like when i start a new text.
I am forced to choose only from the list.
the latest Premiere Pro CC update is supposed to improve multi-cam editing of MXF footage, but I'm still having problems with C300 footage. After flattening a multi-cam track (containing a mix of C300 and Canon 5D 3), some of the C300 clips appear with a striped pattern (the represeantation of the clip in the time line), and don't play back any content. The content is still there, but I have to go back into the original multi-cam sequence, find it, cut it out and replace the "empty" clips in the flattened track.

Is there an easy way to get this parameter into an ifeature or derived part?
We are using inventor 2011 and I would like to make the text wrap where I want it to not where the cell length determines. Can I do this in the ipropeties of the part? When I edit the parts list to move wrap the text manually the text turns blue of course, but this also negates the updating of parts automatically. In the part I use an expression to ensure that the description reverts back to the iproperties of the part ie =<G_L> X <G_W> - <MATERIAL>. I would like it to insert a text wrap then proceed to the next line with <STOCKNUMBER> - <PARTNUMBER> so I would look like:
12" X 6" - G40.21-44W

Every time I launch Paint Shop Pro X5 my recent file list is empty. I thought the program was supposed to remember the last four images that were opened. I then have to select File > Open but now the program defaults to a folder called My Pictures. I store my images in my own folder elsewhere. I would like to set my folder to be the default folder. I have to navigate to my folder ever time I launch the tool. If I go to File > Preferences, I do not see a place where I can change the setting.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been unable to rotate the header text in a parts list. I created a new text style that is rotated 90 deg, a new part list style that specifies to use that text style in the header. Everything else about the text in the header displays correctly (i.e. font, size, colour, etc) but not the rotation when I insert the parts list in a drawing using the correct standard. When I apply this same standard to a regular text line on the drawing it will rotate the 90 degs but not in the part list.
Inventor 2011 SP2
I am trying to align text in a row of my parts list vertically, but I can't seem to find an option to accomplish this. Please see the row for item #5 in the attached jpeg. The default behavior seems to be top justification.
I have found the ability to change left/center/right horizontal alignment in the 'format column' dialogue, but nothing for the vertical alignment. I have also tried changing the settings within the 'styles editor' by going to the parts list style I am using, then the text style that is specified for the data, and changing the justification for that text style to middle justification (see 2nd attachment), but it does not seem to effect the text within my parts list as I had desired.
If I override the text in a parts list, say to rename a part number.How can I make Inventor revert back to the original listed part number?I've tried deleting and inserting the parts list, but it still has the overridden Text.

I want to print what is in the Message Box into a cell in the parts list, and i am stumped. The cell i am trying to print to is a user property in the Parts List.
Create a form with combo box that user can choose one option for the line notes, would be 15 lines with 15 combos, and if necessary the user should be ale to type something insted of using that pre defined option from combo.
I have 2 ideas to make that work, untill now im trying with this 1º but nothing yet.
First Idea:
Create some (15) boolean parameters to enable each line of this NOTE and when the user choose or type one option, that text go directly to one textbox into a Symbol with the 15 lines. I actually dont know how to make this connection, tried some stuffs that found here on forum, but some are too complex.
Second idea:
Instead of create parameters to control everything, i would create all the controls by iLogic, but that is harder then create many and many parameters ? And by this way, i dont know how to conect one INPUTLIST BOX with a pre defined Global form, or, is easier to create a form by ilogic (if that is even posible ofc) ? And still dont know how to make the connection with the chosen option and the text box.
That is just to "centralize" all my notes, that can be variable for each drawing, that way i dont need to have too much symbols for each kind of note, or even have to type everytime that i need one diffent. Would be nice if the user could just choose them in the right sequence he wants.

I want to print what is in the MessageBox into a cell in the parts list, and i am stumped.The cell i am trying to print to is a custom property in the Parts List.
In the parent assembly a text iproperty exists called "child list". I would like to set this value via an ilogic rule that does the following:
For each child in the assembly where paremeter "include" = true, add the value of iproperty "filename" to a comma delimited list that will become the value of text Iproperty "child list" in the parent assembly.
The result should look something Like iproperty"child" = "filename1,filename2,filename3,filename4, etc..."
The rule must iterrogate all children, both parts and assemblies, and must go beyond 1st level children.
The output does not have to be comma delimited but must be delimited with something (eg tab, :, etc..)
The number of children is unknown
Is there a character limit imposed on a text iproperty?
