AutoCAD Inventor :: Edit / Add Matchlist Items In Assembly With IMates

Feb 27, 2013

I've got an existing assembly in which I need to change the matchlist for the imates.  I have been able to change the imate names but not the match list. 

The only reference I have found creates the iMate in a part.  I need to edit an existing iMate in the assembly document for the matchlist.

I have some code below, but it is not complete.

    Set MyPart = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(strJobLocalDirectory & strLFVAssyName)
    Set oAssyComp = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition
        'Dim oDoc As Inventor.AssemblyDocument
    Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
        Dim oInsertiMate As InsertiMateDefinition

[code]....

AutoCAD Inventor :: Multiple Use Of An IMate

Mar 12, 2003

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?

AutoCAD Inventor :: More Than One IMate With ILogic Suppress

Nov 19, 2013

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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Get Bolt To Snap To IMate

Dec 10, 2012

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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: IMate Like A Content Center Part?

May 16, 2012

When 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.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Link Text Items Between Pages And Items In Drawing?

Apr 17, 2013

I am hoping to link text items between pages and items in the drawing such as elevations?

So, ideally, I would have a front page to my drawing set, and this would have a 'Contents' type table on it, with the title name of each drawing in one column, then the drawing number in the next column. This is the tricky bit, someone must know: If i was to change the name / number of any item in this table, could it change also (linked to) the following items:

Drawing title  (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Drawing number (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Elevation call-out (on the plan view)

And possibly:

Excel reference cell

Drawing layout tab title (this might be pushing it!!)

Perhaps this could be done by linking to an external Excel spreadsheet with these titles modified in there? I'm not sure. This would be ideal as typing into excel is a lot easier than the triple click text modify method required currently.

I waste a lot of time renaming and updating sheet names / titles / numbers. Are there standard templates for drawing sets that may have this built in available anywhere that I could try?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Promoted Items In A BOM

Nov 9, 2012

I made a revision of a parent Assembly I was working with because some parts were modificed. All the parts I changed are showing up in the BOM fine but all the old parts, roughly 400, are showing up all grouped together in the BOM and I can't split them apart. This is affecting my Parts List when I try and generate the drawing of the Assembly. It shows all the parts under the file name of the assembly and the symbol in the BOM says "Promoted()" when you hover over it.

Is there a way to split these items back up??

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sum Some Parts List Items

Nov 22, 2011

I have what turns out to be the first parts list in three years where I need to sum the lengths of a couple items together to get a total length for that material in feet.

What do I need to do to get the two lines in the attached screenshot to sum their lengths together? I would be happy to add another column to the list for this, perhaps the "Unit Quantity" column where most everything is set to "Each" but the two lines shown are summed into a length in feet (or anything like that). How can I accomplish this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Moving Items Within Part Drawing

Jun 21, 2012

I am trying to move a component within a part drawing, not an assembly. When I do "move bodies" it wants to move every extrusion within my drawing. If I click move face, then I have to click every face that I want to move (which is time consuming) and then it often times doesn't work? Sometime it works other times it just moves the origin indicator and doesn't move the faces I have selected.

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Sort BOM - Renumber Items As Sorted

Jun 13, 2011

I want to use iLogic to:

1.Sort an assembly BOM by Part Number.

2. Renumber Items in the BOM as sorted.

3. Sort a drawing Parts list by item number.

The background to my problem is that i have an assembly which is working beautifully turning components on and off (suppressing/activating in LOD reps) as defined by iLogic rules (iLogic is awesome). The problem is whenever a part is turned on/activated again, it shows up at the bottom of the BOM and Parts list out of order (would be nice if parts went back in the list where they came from).

I'm wondering if Autodesk has additional items possibly on their website that we can add to the content center. Or is their entire catalog already included when we install Inventor?
