    Placing iLogic Assemblies, Linking Parameters

    Hello and Happy New Year!

     

    I have an iLogic assembly, which is controlled through linked parameters to a control part that has no solid form but contains all the controlling input parameters.

     

    When I use the 'Place iLogic Component' function, I select the assembly and place it into the master assembly. At which point I'm presented with a table of parameters within the assembly. (which actually contain nothing).

     

    Is there a way of making it so I'm presented with the parameters from he control part instead?

     

    I've tried putting the input parameters in the assembly and linking them to the parts instead, but I kept getting 'cyclic dependencies' error messages, which seemed to create more problems than it solved.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Please use plain text.

    I've managed to get it working.

     

    I've ditched the control part and instead have done an XML import/export, to get the parameters from the parts into the assembly. I then linked the parameters using "=" statements in an iLogic code.

     

    Hope this helps someone at some point :smileyhappy:
