AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Change Size Of Custom Content Center Part
May 10, 2013I'm looking for a way to change the size of a custom content center part via ilogic. I found a way to replace them on this forum but this is not ideal for, because that creates a new part every time i change the size of the part.

See attached picture. By the way, I have included this rule in my custom content center parts (beam's etc). The rule is:

AutoCAD Inventor :: Better Method To Find Part Overall Size?
Jul 14, 2013Is there any better method to find the overall size of a part model? I tried Range Box method and that gives some inaccuracy if the model have loft feature and fillet on that. But if I use GetExistingFacets the size gives more accurate. At the same time in a round part model with a cut, the GetExistingFacets give inaccuracy and range box method gives better result. Below is the X, Y, Z sizes of the two models with the above mentioned methods.
Round Part (Part1)
Measured with GetExistingFacets method = 129.934196472168 x 126.422719955444 x 25
Measured with Range Box method = 130 x 126.514225996919 x 25
Rectangular Part (Part2)
Measured with GetExistingFacets method = 300 x 300 x 30.0000286102295
Measured with Range Box method = 300 x 300 x 30.4094903224854

Oct 18, 2012Inventor 2013 sp1
i want to control the scales of my idw views based on the parts size.
Heres a short intro to what we do, using design assistant we copy an existing project to a new project folder and start designing using the old project as a "template" for the new job.
So, lets say the project i just copied has a part that is 100" "tall", on my drawing sheet the view scale is set to .05 and the view fits nicely on our 8 1/2x11 portrait layout.
Now, the new project's part is only 24" "tall" and using a scale of .05 is no good at all, i need to scale the view up so it will fit nicely in the same layout. This also applies to the associated detail and section views that are on the same sheet.
OK then, Im thinking there should be a way to say if dimx is >=100 then view scale is x and so on if the part is smaller and i would like to do this with the details/sections.
As the pics show, when i change to a smaller size/dia, the views scale needs to be increased. How can this be done... (we do not use vault)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Display Name At Part Level

Sep 26, 2013How to add a virtual part from an excel list to assembly using vb.net plugin. I`d like to know how to change i Properties of the virtual part through vb.net.
The iLogic code that I would typically use is:

Dim virtOcc As ComponentOccurrenceIf v_qty >= 1 ThenvirtOcc = occs.AddVirtual(sVirtPart, identity) Try iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Project", "Description") = oProp1iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Summary", "Title") = oProp1 Catch End Try.......
so for the plugin I need to re-write this

Dim identity As Matrixidentity = _invApp.TransientGeometry.CreateMatrix Dim virtOcc As ComponentOccurrence If vp_qty >= 1 Then virtOcc = occs.AddVirtual(sVirtPart, identity) 'Try ' iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Project", "Description") = oProp1 ' iProperties.Value(sVirtPart & ":1", "Summary", "Title") = oProp1 'Catch 'catch error when oProp1 = nothing 'End Try

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Browser Name To Part Number
Jun 13, 2011I need to make installation plans on climate ceilings, which are steel cassettes with Meandro tube element located where cold or hot water is flowing through.
[URL]......
Now it may occur that a cassette is given a code 700 which represents the type of cassette. If inside the cassette is placed a Meandro element its become a follow number eg 700-01.
It may also be that the same cassette No. 700 gets another Meandro element and because the cassette has not changed shape the number 700 remains the same but the follow number change e.g. 700-02.
At the moment I change the number in the browser,(inv2012) I therefore want automatically the iproperties ,partnumber and stock number, to fit. When I go to the BOM, the part- and stock numbers automatically will be placed.
The browser codes are not displayed in the BOM. So if I specify for change I only have to do so in the browser. I wanted to do so by iLogic but then ran into problems. I found a tutorial from Rob Cohee with ilogic so you won’t forget to fill in your iproperties.
[URL].......
I also wanted to do so with the iproprtie Stock number but get an error stating that I must declare the name. How must i declare a name.
Also i was told for entering the browse name in ilogic i had to use displayName, but I get a error stating that the name is Read Only.
So how can i, after i change the browse name, automatically fill in the iproperties ‘part number and/or stock number? Is there an ilogic code for?

I generated "Part1.ipt" and "Part2.ipt",...... (I have hundred of member)
In my assembly, sometimes, I need use Part1.ipt, sometimes I need use Part2.ipt.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dynamic Change Of Length Of Part During Assembly
Nov 24, 2011This is my first time using Inventor but I've been using ProE for several years in school. A friend of mine told me about a feature in ProE where you are able to define a part and then define one of the lengths as it is placed into an assembly. For example I would define a 2x4 part with a length of 84inches. If I wanted a 2x4 of 68inches in my assembly I would use the same file but simply change the 84 to 68. How can I do this with Inventor?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Change Frame Link To Normal Part
Feb 27, 2012I have several frames built by Frame Generator in project.
Than one frame has been diminished much while design so I use just several frame links just like parts without skeleton.
Those frame links I have renamed since I have several copies and I would like to have unique name. Now when I start the assembly consisting those links Inventor naturally inquires about missing files.
I show to renamed one and everything works ok except when I start the file again it asks again nevertheless file has been saved. Inventor still remember this frame link names as it used to be in browser and does not accept replacement.
[URL]........
I wish I must not rebuild those parts from scratch again. Therefore I have two questions
Is it possible to save this frame part as normal part (save as does not do it) ?
Is there some other way to get rid of Frame Generator status of some part built by Frame Gen?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Part Name That Has Multiple Insertions In Assemblies?
Oct 30, 2013I have 2 assemblies and drawings of those assemblies. in both the same part is among the parts.
I want to change the name of the part that is in both assemblies with the Design Assistant, but i am afraid that if i will choose one of them and change the part file's name, the other assembly will be damaged. is it true?
I think this might happen because when i open only the part in Design Assistant, it doesn't let me change it's name, so, Design Assistant might not know where this part is inserted in.
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Change Parameter In Any Part That Is Not A Component
Oct 1, 2013The commented code does not work. I want to be able to open a part and change its size parameters before i open the assembly. this code will run as an external rule in a new empty file.
If i can do it without opening the part, that is even better. Test can I open a part, change a param, then close part.
Dim fname As String
fname ="C:Workspacemy_progchanF_BB_L.ipt"
Dim pDoc as PartDocument = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(fname,False)
pDoc = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(fname)
These are just attempts to find a syntax that works. I need the method to change the parameter.
