AutoCAD Inventor :: Suppress BOM Info (filename / Stock Number) When Publishing To DWF
Dec 14, 2012
When I publish from Inventor to DWF (including sheets in the idw and an view of the iam assembly file) numerous part properties are included in the dwf that I would like to strip out so we don't share too much info with.
For example, filenames are included, stock numbers the complete bom from the model (as opposed to the parts lists that are shown in the idw's... This info shows in the structured bill, and if you click on a part in the iam.
How do I filter all this out so I only show part numbers and descriptions in iproperties?

Is there any way to get the BOM to merge using something other than the Part Number. It seems as though it is the only option for merging the rows. I would like to use the stock number as the key.

In the I properties project tab I would like to change the "Stock Number" name to "A.R.M.-PN:". I need to reference 2 part numbers in my IPT I properties. This will then show up on the Parts List as a column which I can add. Or I would like to add a new dialog box to the "Project Tab". Is there a easy way to do this in 2011 Inventor Professional?

I'm trying to come up with a way to automate the filling of the stock number field in the iproperties for different sheet metal rules. Currenlty I have linked the name of the rule to the description field using the =<Sheet Metal Rule>. So using that varible is out.
A quick solution was to make custom materials for all of the stock numbers and then link that to the sheet metal rule using the material box. This will work except I need to show material name on the parts list.
If only each sheet metal rule had its on iproperties, this would be so easy.
Can this be done with Ilogic?

I would really like to put some text in the part that links to the iproperties so I can emboss the stock number on the parts. It never fails that you create a new part, then forget to change the text. This would save a ton of time and re-plots.

Create a Content Center Part that prompts for a file name and sets the Part Number to whatever I save the part as? It would also be nice to... Have the browser Display name the same as the saved filename.
If I have a standard part with a blank filename, inventor will make the part number equal the filename at the first save. It is this functionality that I require when using Custom Content parts.
E.G. If I have a length of 'RHS 200x100x6.3 - 2000mm' selected from content centre and I want the filename to be saved as 'Part-001', then I would like the Part Number to be set as 'Part-001'.
If I then place the same member in another project/assembly I may want to call it 'ProjectPart-100', where the part number would then be 'ProjectPart-100' and so on.
This method ignores the filename entry in the Ipart table.

here's a macro I wrote to copy the filename to the Part Number iProperty for all parts and sub-assemblies contained in a top-level assembly. I wrote this after using a bunch of custom iParts and all the Part Numbers were the same for each part! (my fault of course, but a pain to fix one at a time).
Public Sub SetAllComponentPartNumbersToFileName()
Dim oAsmDoc As AssemblyDocument
Set oAsmDoc = GetActiveAssembly
If oAsmDoc Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
SetAssemblyComponentPartNumbersToFileName oAsmDoc
End Sub
[code]....

When you do a Save As or Save Copy As in Inventor the part number in the iProperties is automatically updated to match the new filename. I would expect the Document.SaveAs method in the API to act in a similar way. However I found out that this is not the case.
SaveAs: Document.SaveAs(filename, False) does not update the part number. The new part will still have the same part number as the original part. This can give problems since in the BOM parts with the same part number are interpreted as the same physical part.
SaveCopyAs: Document.SaveAs(filename, True) does work as expected and the part number will update correctly.
Is this a bug in the API? or is there a reasonable explanation for this?

I use the Frame Number option quite a bit when I make a Preview and the Viewport details found in the upper left of the Camera viewport (eg: Camera04, Hidden Line) overlap the frame number.
Any way to either exclude the viewport details from Preview or move the Frame Number down so these two pieces of info don't overlap?

A iLogic rule to suppress a sketch? When I suppress a feature, the sketch is not suppressed which cause an error. Although this kind of error does not hurt anything, but I do not want to see any error in my model.

how to suppress a pattern in *.iam by ilogic?
I used ilogic to suppress the main components, but the rest are not suppressed.
For example, I have component "A" and make it a pattern (Colum and Row are variable). How to use ilogic to suppress rest not just "A".

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.

When I create a configuration in one iPart, I have one Extrusion’s sketch link to another supressed Extrusion and cause problem.
Can I supress sketch in iPart ?
If I can suppress that sketch and I think the problem will be solved.

I am trying to make a way that suppress the flange features of all the panels that will be insert in the assembly so i can suppress all the features at ones in a assembly and don't have to do that for each panel separately.
I have a assembly with parameters and i have a part with no geometry but have linked the parameters from the assembly. In my panel part i link the parameters to the part with no geometry.
When i use the parameter in the assembly to suppress the flanges that works the way i want it. But when i insert the panel part into that assembly it doesnot work.

The small cylinder was made first, then projected it to a sketch, made offset, and made the big cylinder, but i want to leave only the big cylinder alone. i want to suppress the small cylinder, but when i suppress the samll one both get suppressed.
How can i break this link, which was made by the projected geometry?
Even when i select the projected circle, right click and select Break Link, they still behave the same.

Lets say you have 100 Keps Nuts in an assembly. Named (KepsNut1,KepsNut2, etc)And you want to suppress them on and off.
Would there be a way to make an array 1-100 and just say suppress/unsupress "KepsNut" & array list of numbers.To basically add the two strings and find all the components in that array and turn them off or on.!

I often use multiple versions of components in my assemblies so I can validate the top level assy works in all it's expected configurations. To that end, if I have different versions of component A, I supress all except the version I am working with. I have discovered though, that supressing the component does not supress the contraints that component has to an unsupressed component in the assy.
The purpose of suppressing something is to essentially eliminate it from existance without deleting it from the file so it can be brought back quickly in all its glory.If I have to track down every contraint there is for a supressed component and supress them independently, that is an incredible consumption of time.

I am trying to suppress part that are labeled as "Reference" on the BOM Strutcture and I can't get the program to cycle through the subassemblies. The following code runs through all the components on the top-level assembly but I can't get it to cycle through the subassemblies.
oCompDef = ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinitionoAssemblyComponents = oCompDef.OccurrencesDim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrenceDim oSubOccurrence1 As ComponentOccurrenceFor Each oOccurrence In oAssemblyComponents If (oOccurrence.BOMStructure = BOMStructureEnum.kReferenceBOMStructure) Then Component.IsActive(oOccurrence.Name) = False Else Component.IsActive(oOccurrence.Name) = True End IfNext

I have a weldment that shows all the preparations and weld beads in 3D. I need to detail out this weldment without the preparations/welds applied already.
I can't seem to find a way to suppress these features in the 2D drawing without going back to the weldment file and suppressing those features individually.
Can you force Inventor to ignore preparations and weld features in a 2D drawing? When I do my callouts for welds, I can't have it showing the weld/preparations in the drawing itself.
I created the drawing file using the weldment file as the base view. Running latest version of Inventor Pro.

I was wondering if there was a way to suppress a component in the main assembly, and keep it from appearing in the parts list whenever I create one in the idw. environment? I am creating an iassembly, and generating different file versions from the main assembly in my table. In order for me to create different versions off of this main assembly, it is required that I suppress certain sub assemblies or components. I can't get the suppressed componenets to not show up in my parts list when I create it. I turned off enabled and visibility and it still appears in the BOM. Creating a different level of detail doesn't even solve this.
I know I can manually not have it show up in the BOM, but it becomes very time consuming trying to make certain rows not appear in the BOM table.

I have a rectangular component pattern which started out with all components. As more structure was added around it I started supressing different elements to suit, now a piece of structure has gone thru element 1 but i dont seem to be able to supress it... is there an easy way to get rid of element 1 without having to redefine the pattern? (redefining causes me other problems)

Is it possible to suppress an assembly feature in a drawing view?We make some components in an assembly oversized and then do a final machine step after welding or brazing. We show the completed assembly in the drawing but would like to see the assembly prior to machining in some views.If I suppress the machining features in the model it affects all views. Can we suppress the features in just one view?

I haven't had the chance to use Inventor 2013 too much yet but I am doing some details and I want to suppress a drawing view. I used to be able to right click on the view and select suppress but that option no longer exists. The only way I can suppress it now is if find the view in the browser, right click and select suppress

I have a ipt file in my assembly and try to makes some constraints. Everything ios working well, but there are some suppressed workplanes, and I don't want to use them for a automatically created constraint. Is there a way to find out the workplane suppress status?
Why are they suppressed? They are defined on a part feature (extrusion surface). And when I supress that feature, also the Workplane is suppressed.
But I only can get the visible status. Maybe there's a way to get it about the part feature, but therefore, I have to search for the part feature, and that's also a problem. I cannot get the part feature, who is used for the workplane definition (I think, it's a problem of my knowledge )
Please see attached a small view on the browser where you can see the suppressed Planes.

If I have a RectangularPattern how do I suppress individual features in the pattern.
For example I have a single row of holes, and I want to suppress the odd numbered holes.
I've tried this...
CComPtr<FeaturePatternElements> pFeaturePatternElements ;
pRectPatFeat->get_PatternElements (&pFeaturePatternElements) ;
const int ikNumElements = pFeaturePatternElements->GetCount() ;
wprintf (L" this has %d FeaturePatternElements
[Code]....
... but it crashes at the assignment of Suppressed
