Inventor 2014 iPart publishes to CC but won't insert in assembly.

[AlexFielder]

Hi all,

I've created the attached iPart based on a Norgren 36 0526 ## family of Metric to Imperial Adaptors.

The iPart functions flawlessly, but when I publish to our content centre I get the following message:

Can anybody take a look at this part and help me figure out why it doesn't place?

Thanks,

Alex.

Part and table seem fine, I get the same error after publish and place from content center.

I've checked your thread data against threads.xls in design data folder and they seem alright. Changed the thread feature name from Thread1 to ThreadA and Thread2 to ThreadB and it still didn't worked.

I have re-authored the part because it got published in "Other Parts" instead of "Tube & Pipe / Fittings / Adapters" and it was working. It did complain about loosing previous authored info but it worked.

Here's is placed in an assembly and I am using change size on it just to see that is working. 

Have a look in the attachment to see how I've authored it.

Running this piece of iLogic seems to have fixed the issue:

Dim oProperty
oProperty = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.PropertySets.Item("32853F0F-3444-11d1-9E93-0060B03C1CA6").ItemByPropId(56)
oProperty.Value = ""

Thinking about it now, it's probably symptomatic of my having copied the base geometry of this part from a part I had previously authored for T&P.

Thanks Salariua, I'll mark your last answer as "The Answer".

Cheers,

Alex.

That's a weird one. Have you run the code before publishing to content center ? Just curious...

I ran it before publishing, yes.

It seems that leaving that data (whatever it was) in-place causes the error I was seeing.

Running the "De-Author" iLogic, cleans it up and allows it to be placed.
