AutoCAD Inventor :: Partlist Customization In Drawing
Aug 29, 2012
I have created a drawing from the parametric model assembly where i have clevis, lug plate and pin arrgt.
the model has been generated using the input excel spreadsheet where i have given the inputs like clevis thk, lug thk,pin dia etc.,
while creating the drawing partlist i have included the column of clevis thk, lug thk etc., using the iproperty, but these columns are coming separately, i just want the thk of clevis and lug in the same column so that i will make Bom for the assembly.
How to get the parametric inputs in the same column of the patlist in drawing.

Is there a way to reset changes in a partlist. If I have changed in partlist, the changes in BOM can't be shown in partlist. I don't want any "blue" fields in the partlist, they are static.

How can I get the iPart information in a partlist.
I have a tupe DN 25 iPart where I can control the length, and i'll like to have a text I description field in my partlist that says "DN 25, Length = <actual length>".

When I make a frame, with framegerator the size (80 x 80 x 2) is placed in QTY field, i want to have 1 in quantity and then I place the dimension =<G_H> x <G_W> <G_L> in my own dimension field ! how can I change it, so i don't have 80x80x3 in the quantity field ?
When I make a custom change in a field, is there a way to "go back" to hov the BOM/PARTLIST looked before custom change ?

When i insert a partlist in a drawing the insert point of the partlist is in the upper right corner? i want the insertpoint in the lower right corner, because i know the height of our titleblock. Then i will allways be able to possition the partlist right above the titleblock. I never know how heigh the partlist is because the amount of parts in the partlist is different every time. Is it possible to change the partlist insertpoint to the lower right corner of the partlist when its inserted via the API?

Is there a way to export properties such as Moment of inertial to Partlist or use it as a customer property?

I am now looking to work with custom iProperties that will populate our company's new BOM standard. I have not done much with regards to customizing a BOM (I've always used the generic fields). Now my boss has come to me and wants to use the following headings for our BOM....
REF ID, QTY. , DESCRIPTION, SHAPE, SIZE, LENGTH, MASS, TOTAL LENGTH, TOTAL MASS, COMMENTS, REF. DWG.
REV., REV. DATE
While I understand some of these fields will require the user to manually type information in (Comments and Ref. Dwg.) The others, from my understanding, can come straight from iProperties or Parameters. I am running INV Pro 2013.

Is there a way to customize the BOM columns so that Inventor remembers which columns I need? I know that I can add in the file name column etc. but I use the same columns over and over. I find myself in every assembly adding these columns in.

I'm trying to do a customization of the Bom structure to obtain a new custom column "Qty*x" (where "X" is a number).
I need this because in my order I have multiples of these items.

I have been working on creating custom content center families that will populate our company's part numbers and descriptions into the browser and drawing BOM. I have been quite successful in this except with the material. I've created custom materials for the fasteners that have the specified strengths and finishes per the fastener. By doing this I've created a different problem.
How can I create a custom property that will insert a specified value for material into the BOM? I've tried to change the link for Project.Material and then the part inserts as Inventor's default. I don't think creating individual material styles for each fastener is a viable one since I'll end up with duplicate style names.

I need to add weight to my parts list and notes for both parts and assy. Is there a way to get the weight parsed out from the model without the "lbsmass", just the pounds number no nomenclature I have a couple of other questions on parts list customization also. Also are these better questions for the customization group?

Earlier I`ve used a simple code from Rob Cohee to update the title blocks and it works like a charm, however, now I would like to try to kick it up a notch.
If (ThisDrawing.ModelDocument Is Nothing) Then ReturnmodelName = IO.Path.GetFileName(ThisDrawing.ModelDocument.FullFileName)iProperties.Value("Project", "Part Number") = iProperties.Value(modelName, "Project", "Part Number")iProperties.Value("Custom", "Client") = iProperties.Value(modelName, "Custom", "Client")
I`m working with several similar projects where the Inventor models and IDW`s is copied from one project to another. A typical project can consist of 50-75 drawings and the only properties needed to change is Client, project number and drawing number (consisting of the project number and a suffix, ex 123456789-125).
I would like to try to make an .ini file with these 3 properties in the root of the project folder so they can be changed and updated easily.

I've been forcing myself to accumulate to the new marking menu and gestures system. I'm starting to get used enough to them to see that it's really worth it.
I've found that the defaults are crap for what I do in IV, which is fine because I can customize it to whatever I do use.
However, when I RMB on a component pattern it displays a unique menu for which there appears to be no option for under customization. I'd really like to replace the craptastic useless options with things that I actually use.
By the way, why does AutoDesk neglect component patterns so much?

Question regarding view labels in drawings.
I want to change the appearance of the view label to look like attached snap shot. Is this possible? I have looked through the inventor settings but cant find any options.
As a possible solution I can always create intelligent symbols which update with the drawing (like the standard view labels) but before I begin creating these I wanted to check if there was any other way?

I want to run a macro from a keyboard shortcut like I have been doing in the last several releases of Inventor. I can set the shortcut and it works. If I close/restart Inventor, the shortcut is lost.

I'm starting to develop some customization for Inventor, and I need to decide whether to use VBA, .net, addin, plugin, or what else.According to this post .net is easier to use than VBA: URL....
I did a quick test and I found out that with VBA is much easier to use than .net: you can edit the source code while debugging, you don't need to compile and install anything, everything seems to work much smoother.Do I risk to find out that VBA has problems later in the development?
Where can I find documentation with comparison between the different customization techniques?

The Marking Menu of 2012 so far is a big brake for me.
I wish I can make some alterations but I did not find in this huge variety of possibilities
the option to alter the context menu of the Sketch.
I am in Sketch. I drawing the line. I want to quit. I do right click and have the menu. the name and probably the sub name of that menu. I cannot find it at all in the Customization list. I wish at least to locate the Escape to bottom. Did not find also the option to turn the Marking menu off.

I'd like to customize the way our section marker terminators look. More like an architactual style drawing.
I'd also like to add the sheet number that the section is cut from to the section view label.
As far as I can tell, this propertie is not available for insertion in the view lable. Is there a way to make it available?
The need for these changes come from larger drawing sets were the section is cut on one sheet and shown on another. We'd like to link the sheet numbers in both the section marker terminator and view label.

We are trying to relate to the floor how many pieces of HW should go in partiular places.
The balloon with HW count, unfortunately, gives only overall quantity which is less then useful.
I describe my problem in the graphics area attached.
Should be easy, I guess, but, so far, wecould not figure out the best way of dealing with it rather than we are using now.

We people are doing the Autocad CAD customization using COM & .NET API.
Now I have heard that we can read or write thedwg file using realdwg toolkit without installing AuotCAD on my machine so it is beneficial that we can do without AutoCAD.
Rather than this advantage, how it can be usefult to our team if our organization will but it ?

So when using C3D, I have my right-click setup so that when I click on an object, say a multi-leader, surface, etc, a long menu pops up with object-specific options. Such as multi-leader styles and scales, pipe network options, etc.
So today, AutoCAD decided to be lazy and not show that menu. I've tried turning off the R-C customization, then turning it back on, switching the custom options around, applying, then setting them back to the way I had them, starting a new drawing, restarting CADD, and finally restarting my computer. NOTHING.
This has happened to me several times in the past and it just starts working properly again at some point. To draft, modifying C3D objects, without the r-c menu is such a time consuming PITA.

On older versions of Acad, I was able to go into the .mnu file and do a macro such as follows:
***POP10
**LIB2
ID_MNLIB2 [&Lib2]
[->Bolts]
[->Bolt ****'y]
[#10]^C^C-insert;F:/STD/LIBS/BOLT-01/BOLT010A;;;;
[* 1/4]^C^C-insert;F:/STD/LIBS/BOLT-01/BOLT025A;;;;
[5/16]^C^C-insert;F:/STD/LIBS/BOLT-01/HH031A;;;;
[*3/8]^C^C-insert;F:/STD/LIBS/BOLT-01/HH038A;;;;
And a new pull down menu would be created and my listing of bolts could be inserted from the std libs bolt file as I clicked through the route. I developed all of this on older versions at a different company. With 2014, I went to the CUSTOMI ZE under the main Drafting and Annotation / AutoCAD Classic pull down and created a New Menu, renamed to BOLTS and then pulled the INSERT command and dropped it ontp the BOLTS pull down and changed the DISPLAY NAME to 1/4" and edited the MACRO from ^C^C _insert to ^C^C_insert;F:/STD/LIBS/BOLT-01/BOLT025A;;;; Seemed to work fine....until I added another 10 bolt assemblies and then noticed that they all showed up as whatever the last bolt I had put in the Macro line was. The display name stayed correct but the insert was gloabally changed on all pull down to whatever the last item was. I have reset 2014 back to the original settings now to clear out everything I had done.

My right click customization, which would bring up properties as an option, or could unlock a viewport by selecting it and right clicking. and can also select an x-ref to open, or edit in place, and modify attributes, etc.....has disappeared.
All I get now are basic pan/zoom commands, action recorder, clipboard, etc.....I checked my options, nothing has changed in my right click customization field, but for some reason, it's just not working. Any way to get that back?

when I wanted to copy objects from one drawing to another or even inside of one drawing, I could right click, "Copy with Base Point" . In 2013 (possibly before) they moved that command along with copy, paste into another command called "Clipboard".
I've been searching for a way to customize that to remove that extra click to access a commonly used command with no luck.
