Hi All, do you know how to populate an Inventor Multivalue PARAMETER using a For cycle in iLogic according to a variable index corresponding to a different number of array items?

for example:

i grab some data from a Rule and populate an Arraylist variable. I trace the number of instances using a counter. after the data acquisition I want to populate the Multivalue Parameter with the acquired values.

No problem browsing the Arraylist parameter: MyArraylist.(Index)... but what about the Multivalue parameter?

the MultiValue.SetList("Multivalue Parameter", Value 1, Value 2, ... , Value N) provide a defined number of data and cannot be set dynamically according to an Index.

thank you in advance

Out of my breif knowledge I would suggest you can use another Array, populate that and then send it to the paramer.

i.e.

' Your extracted value

Dim MyOriginalArray as New ArrayList

MyOriginalArray = .......

'Declare an arbitrary array

Dim lstSecond as New ArrayList

' filter out as however you would like

For i = 1 to 10

      lstSecond.add(MyOriginalArray.item(i))

Next i

'Populate the paramter

Multivalue.List(YourParameter") = lstSecond

Hope this helps

Multivalue.List("MyParameter") = ArrayList was exactly what I was missing. It works perfectly without any cycle for filling in all he values and it depends on how many values are stored into ArraList.

Great, Thank you!
