Inventor iLogic Discussion... Sharing is Caring!

[AndrewR]

Hi Guys & Girls,

I've recently found a number of interesting code snippets for Inventor iLogic that some people will be interested in. I started this thread with the aim to share some of these discoveries and also to hear some of your own!

Please post up the code for any cool routines you may have come up with or links to interesting iLogic pages...

I'll start with these...

Here is a blog i've just posted on how to extract the sheet metal flat extents using iLogic and use them in a BOM or Parts List... Something a lot of people have been asking about over the last year or so.

Happy iLogic-ing.

Here is a simple snippet that stops a rule from running with the Master LOD

Dim doc as AssemblyDocument = ThisDoc.Document
If doc.ComponentDefinition.RepresentationsManager.ActiveLevelOfDetailRepresentation.LevelOfDetail = LevelOfDetailEnum.kMasterLevelOfDetail  Then Return

Its comes in handy when using a rule to suppress and un-suppress components in assemblies.

Very good for when you have a "parts list" on the idw (I believe that the parts list uses the Master LOD)
