iLogic to Export Sketch to DXF

Hi All,

 

I'm fairly competent with most of the standard iLogic uses, or can find them online, but this one is probably stepping into more advanced territory.  Before I go any further, just wanted to mention that I've tried using Inventor's sheet metal and it's not flexible enough for our use case.

 

I have a an assembly, in which one part is a sealed plastic bag, and another part which serves as a flat pattern for that bag.  The flat pattern part is driven entirely by the bag part, and works just fine.  I have a final, adaptive sketch at the bottom of the flat pattern part browser that we'll be exoporting as DXF to drive a CNC cutter for the patterns.

 

While we can do this manually, I was wondering if there was some code that I could use instead, which would export it with a name that matches the assembly part number with "FlatPattern" on the end (i.e. "<ASSY PART NUMBER>_FlatPattern") and also complete a few other iProperties from the assembly, such as Revision, Description, etc. 

 

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.  Thanks!
