iLogic Coding to Disable Event Triggers

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone,

I have a question. I am setting up template .ipts and .idw for my company, and i run Adept to save and store my files. Now i have a code to automatically make a .idw after i save an .ipt. but then after every save (adept saves the .ipt alot of times) it will ask to make a drawing for the .ipt. well i was wondering if there is a code to put in a rule to disable the event triggers, and place that rule on the trigger after close document. so that the next time i open the document no event triggers will work.

You may suppress / unsuppress any iLogic rule. Here is a sample:

Dim MyRuleName As String = "MagicRule"

Dim auto As IiLogicAutomation = iLogicVb.Automation
Dim oDoc as Inventor.Document = ThisDoc.Document
Dim rule As iLogicRule = auto.GetRule( oDoc, MyRuleName)

'this line suppresses my rule
rule.IsActive = False

Suppressed rule cannot be invoked by events.

Cheers,
