I know I can make a button on the ribbon for running a specific macro. But, is this possible for iLogic rules? I would love to be able to run rules and launch forms from the ribbon!?
View 5 RepliesI have created a ribbon bar in autocad 2012 using API and c#. On ribbon button i am executing a Command method which display a wizard for copying some files.
Now i want to run a macro before executing the ribbon button command method. Which display a message box with yes and no . if user click yes command method will executes itself and display wizard for copy files.
If user click no command method will not execute and return. This will allow user to use macro for customizing the file copy process.
So I can run the following code from the command line with no problem:
(WRK-Insert_Standards_Block '("S:\AUTOCAD\_Common\Linetypes\CSW_Civil-Linetype"))
(WRK-Insert_Standards_Block '("S:\AUTOCAD\_Common\Linetypes\CSW_Survey-Linetype"))
(WRK-Layer_Insert_all "CSW-X-FM_Layers_List")
However when I put it into a macro (custom command to be used from the ribbon) it spits out the following in my command line:
(WRK-Insert_Standards_Block '("S:
If there is a specific toolbar that I want to add to the ribbon how is this done? I see that you can find the toolbar of your choice then slide specific commands using the "Add" button.
Or I can turn on the entire toolbar and place it somewhere around the model screen, but that shrinks the model viewer.

I have been trying to create a macro to control an assembly. The problem is that I need to access a certain parameter in a specific part in the assembly. I can get the exact parameter by using the "name" of the given parameter, ex .Item("d7") to call the parameter d7. The problem for me has been what name do I use to call out a given part, I have been using .Item(Index number), ex .Item(12), but this number can change as parts are added, deleted, or suppressed.
The question is what "name" should I be using and how do I use it. I have tried
"InternalName", "PrimaryDeselGUID", "DisplayName", "FullDocumentName", "FullFileName"
but there is no "Name" to input like the parameter.
For several years I've been programming in Inventor and AutoCAD, with VBA. Making macros and creating a button for them in the toolbar of Inventor is no problem. What disturbs me slightly is that the name of the button is the same as the name of the macro. In VBA you can't create functions with spaces in the name. So the name of the toolbar button often looks quite silly.
Is there a way to change the name and the tooltip-text of the toolbar button without loosing the link to the original macro? In AutoCAD this is no problem, but Inventor...

We have some custom macro's running in Inventor wich we call from the ribbon > user commands.
In Inventor 2011 we used the large and small together and the icon's were shown properly.
Now we have moved to Inventor 2013 and the large icon's arnen't shown properly. They display as an large orange @ signin a square box.
The Icon's meet al the requirement, .bpm, 16x16 & 32x32 pix, 24 bit, naming (Modulename.Macronam.Small/Large.bmp)
I want a to create a tool button on the annotate tab of the ribbon. The button will toggle between having the 'display line weights' box (on the drawing tab of the application options dialog box) ticked or not ticked.
I have the settings set to display true line weights. (so i can visualize how the actual print will look, but need it off to be able to draft properly).
I'm trying to find a way to add a custom button to my ribbon that will launch a global rule or form using VB. I know of a way using VBA but I want to get away from VBA. I'd much rather create an add with VB and use that.

I am trying to make a macro that adds the vendor column to the end of a parts list, sort by it first, then by part number, renumber the parts list, then save the overrides to the BOM.

The laser can be set to fire using a combination of Alt, Shift or Control keys plus a number or letter. I arbitrarily set it up as "Alt 1". My old tablet had a mechanical button that I easily assigned this function. For my new setup, I need this button on the ribbon but I can't figure out what Macro text format is the same as pressing "Alt 1".

I have been using the addin "Save Run Macro" to automatically run a macro every time the "Save" button is pressed.
Any of the following questions about "Save Run Macro"?
1] When I protect the macro from viewing (so I can protect my code) "Save Run Macro" does not see the macro.
2] When I save the part for the first time (ipt, iam or idw/dwg) the macro does not run. I always need to run the macro again.

Let's say I'm using the 'Paintbrush, Opacity 70%, Hardness 075, Size 4.00' as my "standard outline tool". Can I some how save that preference (and any other tool such as "Specific Eraser Op. 100%, Hard. 100, Size 10.00) so that I can easily switch between "Ouline Brush" and "Specific Eraser" . Maybe to the 'f-buttons'

-Big Eraser
-Detailed Color brush

Need a macro to copy a specific file and then promp where to paste the file. Trying to make a macro to Publish to PDF with certain parameters, mainly the security password, then save to as file "X". Then Call macro to copy file "X" so I can navigate to the proper directory,paste it and rename it.
If Corel had a feature that would allow you to set your password once and it would remember it so you didn't have to retype it every time.
I did managed to Record completely the macro but it will only save over the same file every time. It would work great if I could get it to just go back to the "publish To PDF" after inputting the settings then I can name it and put it in the directory I want.
