AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Coding To Disable Event Triggers
Apr 12, 2013
I am setting up template .ipts and .idw for my company, and i run Adept to save and store my files. Now i have a code to automatically make a .idw after i save an .ipt. but then after every save (adept saves the .ipt a lot of times) it will ask to make a drawing for the .ipt. well i was wondering if there is a code to put in a rule to disable the event triggers, and place that rule on the trigger after close document. so that the next time i open the document no event triggers will work.

So the other day I set up an external rule and created an event trigger to run the rule on save. It worked great ... for a couple days, and then it just stopped working yesterday. I can still run the rule manually and it works fine, but it doesn't seem to run automatically anymore on file save. Yes, iLogic is set to Loaded / Automati in the add-ins panel.
(on the iLogic rule attachment, remove .TXT from the end. I had to add that due to the board's rules about file types.)

I'm attempting to create a model that autmotaically derives ready-to-go drawings. I've gotten pretty far in doing so but have a few issues with regards to dimensioning. As I'm sure you're aware, when the model changes, a dimension to that feature, which has been removed, is also deleted and some those dimensions do not return once the model is changed back.
I have looked into using different view representations, but have found that they do not accommodate feature supression.
Is there a way to program in the dimensioning of a view.
Create center points for of the holes and center lines.
And for a feature note such as "Hole and Thread" dimensioning, when the model expands, the leader and text length do not change and proceed into the view. Is there a way to fix or anchor the text to a certain spot on the drawing, and have the leader length expand and change accordingly to that point.

Is there any chance to define an event trigger which runs an iLogic rule when we check out an already open file? Problem is, that we need to synchronize iProperties on check out to clear "Approved by" when Vault State of Part is "under revision"
Vault Parameter "State" is mapped with iProperty "State".
So I want to run the following on check out:
Call ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("VaultPropertyWriteBack").Execute2(True)

Is there a way to set the event trigger of an ilogic file that's already inside of a document? I have code that can automatically create and populate new rules across my assembly parts, but it would be nice to set certain rules to fire every time that part gets saved.
If it can't be accomplished outright from the API, would it be possible to throw an OnEvent (save event in this case) inside of the iLogic code, to get the same results? URL...

How to get the API to add an iLogic Event Trigger but I cannot find the exact code on how to do it.
Is there a Simple way to add an Ilogic Rule (External or Internal) to an event trigger with a VBA Macro or iLogic Rule?
I would like to automate adding an iLogic rule to an Event Trigger when we update our old drawings.
The details of the Rule I am trying to call is as follows:
Rule Name = Save On Close Commands
Event = Before Close
We currently have Inventor 2013 and 2014. If it is not possible in 2013, is it possible in 2014?
get the Rule Added to the Event Trigger

Apparently the occurrences tab setting aren't easily accessible through the code snippets in ilogic.
How would one go about writing a rule that, in essense, would say:
If x = "whatever" then
occurrence.enabled = false
else
occurrence.enabled = true
end if
I've been reading that LOD's and suppression aren't the best course of action for assemblies especially when you're dealing with 20-40 parts as I am. I've got an assembly and parts controlled by a spreadsheet and when things are clicked off in the spreadsheet they need to be off in the model/drawings/bills etc. I have it working (to an extent) with suppression of parts in the assembly, but that casues LOD errors in the drawings. Research says parts are best disabled which is what i'm trying to do.

I would like to know of a way of grabbing the code that triggers different commands for example, someone a while back gave me this command of
This Application.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("SheetMetalStylesCmd").Execute
this triggers the Sheet metal defaults in a sheetmetal ipt file.Where was the SheetMetalStylesCmd part of it taken from?

I have noticed quite a performance hit when coding the same thing in .NEt compared to VBA. I suspect this to be due to out of process calls between .net and Inventor.
Is there any way to bundle many calls and send them as one.
Example: I want to change the parameter value of a constraint and then update the assemblydocument. Can this be bundled into one call to Inventor?

I have addin running inside Inventor. The requirement is that addin should be able to capture the "save as" operation done by the user. Internally, addin stores unique information in the active Inventor file and when user does "Save as", it needs to generate and store the new unique information in the newly created file after Save As. That is the reason it is required to capture the Save As event.
It was possible to capture the "Save" event and there I get Event Timing Enum (kBefore and kAfter). But the file name is same for kBefore and kAfter. So its not possible to identify that its Save As operation.

I'm trying to create a handler for the OnDocumentChange Application event.
private Inventor.Application m_inventorApplication;
Inventor.ApplicationEvents appEvents = null;
public StandardAddInServer()
[Code]...
My OnSaveDocument handler works just fine but the OnDocumentChange will not fire. I've been using the even watcher and have been using other handlers but cannot seem to get this one to work.

How to set a tool tip to show up next to and follow the mouse during user interaction. It's the same function that the CommandManager.Pick does?
If it's not a built in function then I guess it's created by a tool tip that gets moved around to follow the mouse on mouse move?

I have a have a custom ribbon tab on the Assembly and ZeroDoc ribbons, those have pannels and buttons.
The custom buttons have OnExecute event that can have custom actions addded.
But how can we intercept the event when user is clicking on the custom tab to show custom pannels?
Is there a OnExecute or a similar event for the RiboonTab?

How to use an embedded cursor (mycursor.cur) via the SetCursor command under user interaction events. I can use built in cursors just not able to get it working with my resource.
Sample below throws an error type mismatch.

I have set the build action of the cursor to be embedded.

Im trying to catch the event when the user selects a component in a drawing view using
CommandManager.UserInputEvents.OnContextMenu += UserInputEvents_OnContextMenu;
But it seems that the onselect event only catches selection of drawing views or balloon, annotation etc, but not the component inside the drawing view is this intentional or a bug?
The reason i need to catch this is to make a new context menu action, so i need the selected item. I know i can use SelectionSet, but i want to be able to debug my application as an external application connecting to the running instance before i build it into an addin (saves me a lot of inventor restarts..) And Selection Set does not seem to work when i use it inside an event handler in an external application...

I have a few sites that I use just to keep FeatureLines that I'm using for construction and don't want them interacting with anything in other sites. Of the when I draw an FL in one of those sites I'll get a message such as "Updating 286 points". This takes over 2 minutes to accomplish.
Since I don't have a lot of FeatureLines in the sited I wouldn't expect it to take that long. If it were a complicated site I might not think anything of it. If I add another FL I will still get the same message with the same # of points. So it isn't based on the number of vertices in the FL in that site or it would increase after adding each FL. There is no Surface that uses these FL. So It isn't updating a TIN.

BTW. If I delete the FL I don't get any message or lag.

I have created a very basic reactor as a test. As you can see, it doesn't actually do anything other than set a variable so I know the error isn't caused by something I'm doing with the reactor.
(defun np:test (reactor callbackdata / ) (setq abc 123))(if (not np:reactor1) (setq np:reactor1 (vlr-command-reactor nil '((:vlr-commandwillstart . np:test))) ))
OK, so the problem I have found is that if I load this reactor into a drawing and then use the MVSETUP command but escape out without completing the command, AutoCAD throws an error and becomes unusable. When I then close AutoCAD down I am met with multiple unhandled exception errors before the app finally closes.
I then altered the reactor from a vlr-command-reactor to a vlr-editor-reactor and found that with this, I am no longer met with the same error while escaping out of MVSETUP. However, when I close CAD down I am eventually left with an 'AutoCAD Application has stopped working' error dialog on screen which reports that acad.exe as crashed.
I am working on AutoCAD Architecture 2012 (although I have tried it on 2013 to with the same results) on Windows 7 64bit. I have also tried this on ACA2012 x32 and found the same error exists.
I am doing something fundamentally wrong in the way I am handling reactors?

We are using the linework coding to process our figures and the survey .txt file provided to me uses codes to begin lines with "+" & "-". For example, driveways are coded + DR1 for begin and - DR1 to end the line. The linework process works fine, its when I go to display the point in the description keys that are causing me problems. All the points that are in between the begin and end points display to the appropriate style because they are coded as DR*. The begin and end do not display correctly as the + & - isn't being recognized in the description key. I tried many alternate ways such as *DR*, + DR*, - DR*, with nothing working.
Is there a different format I need to be using? There are way to many points to go thru to move the + & - behind the code.
