iProperty concatenation with iLogic

[karthur1]

I would like to be able to concatenate the title of my part using iLogic.  I would like it to read this:

"TEXT 12.5in TEXT (1 1/2 x12.5 x 20)"

The "12.5in", "12.5" and the "20" are all variables that I am setting with ilogic.  As the part changes so do these variables.  Its probably something very simple, but I cant get it to do it.

I have tried this, but it gives me an error.

iProperties.Value("Summary", "Title")="TEXT"Cutlength"TEXT"Width "x" total"

Hi karthur1,

In addtion to Paul's answer, this link from the Inventor Customization forum provides an example as well:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

I was way over-thinking this.  I could actually do what I needed this time using formulas in my iproperties.  I can see this being useful later though.

Thanks.

There are times when I need to populate the iproperty fields with iLogic rather than with a formula in iproperty.

When that is the case, here is how it can be populated.

If you need to format the expression as fractional, here is a way to do that also.  Use the RoundToFraction function.
