      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is there any possibility to have Forms visible depended on file extension in use or parameter value ?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I know about Forms with are inside the template but this can't be used because I need to use forms to already created files.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I created forms for each file type but when they are together it's looks quite messy.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Picture how it's looks was attached.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Having all the forms independent by file type, sheet metal, part, assembly etc and have them open&amp;nbsp; depending on what file is being worked on has a few drawbacks.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;OL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;This may work to a degree but may fall down when in the assembly environment where every part/ assembly document is opened in the background and will end up opening the global forms associated with them. This would get messy very quickly.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;There is other issues in that you cannot close the form via ilogic, there maybe a work around for this by editing the xml file.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Another drawback is the file is only recognized on the file it was launched from. It needs to be reopened on each file being worked on.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Maybe other user on the customization forum have better ideas. Alot of the people are using ribbon buttons and or VBA forms as the ilogic forms lack some customization.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Attached is pictures of how I have set up a toolbox global form I use, you can create tabs which can fit alot into a small space. Global tab is rules that run across&amp;nbsp; files or in both assembly and parts.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;Although I have separate global forms for sheetmetal, drawing iproperties and Toolbox.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Here are rules to detect file types. No need to check extension but that is another way I guess.&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.cadlinecommunity.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/201896502-Inventor-2014-iLogic-Exit-Rule-Based-on-File-Type" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.cadlinecommunity.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/201896502-Inventor-2014-iLogic-Exit-Rule-Based-on-File-Type&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
