    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Hi Mark,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;I'd think you are are asking for a specific requirement that there would not be an exact answer (or demo code).&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The basic ability of iLogic is in term of the wrapped functions, while it does not mean these functions can meet all requirements. but iLogic is based on Inventor API. you can still extend the ability by Inventor API in iLogic. For your requirement, you need the API.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;If you have not been familiar with, I 'd recommend the following tutorials, including some are related to your requirements:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Materials to get started with Inventor API&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="http://modthemachine.typepad.com/my_weblog/2013/02/inventor-api-training-lesson-1.html" target="_blank"&gt;http://modthemachine.typepad.com/my_weblog/2013/02/inventor-api-training-lesson-1.html&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;material on how to work with iLogic + Inventor API&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="http://au.autodesk.com/au-online/classes-on-demand/class-catalog/2011/autocad-inventor-suites/autodesk-inventor-ilogic-or-inventor-api-which-is-the-right-tool-for-me" target="_blank"&gt;http://au.autodesk.com/au-online/classes-on-demand/class-catalog/2011/autocad-inventor-suites/autodesk-inventor-ilogic-or-inventor-api-which-is-the-right-tool-for-me&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;material on the API of sheet metal, where you will get to know how to get information of Bend.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="http://download.autodesk.com/media/adn/Autodesk_Inventor_API_Module5_SheetMetal_01April10.zip" target="_blank"&gt;http://download.autodesk.com/media/adn/Autodesk_Inventor_API_Module5_SheetMetal_01April10.zip&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;material on API of drawing document that introduces how to work with drawing sheet, e.g. when you want to find edge information of the 3D model from a drawing curve.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="http://download.autodesk.com/media/adn/Autodesk_Inventor_API_Module7_Drawing_Documents_15April10.zip" target="_blank"&gt;http://download.autodesk.com/media/adn/Autodesk_Inventor_API_Module7_Drawing_Documents_15April10.zip&lt;/A&gt; &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;finally, how to add a custom table to drawing document:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;a demo code is available in Inventor API help document (C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\Local Help\ admapi_19_0.chm&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Hope these are helpful. If you have question, please do isolate the requirement into pieces. It is not easy to get answer if the description isgeneral. &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

      <title>How to use iLogic to build a custom press brake forming table</title>
      <link>https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-programming-ilogic/how-to-use-ilogic-to-build-a-custom-press-brake-forming-table/m-p/5516293#M54266</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Years ago I created an AutoLISP routine that we have been using in AutoCAD to create our forming tables that our press brake operators reference when manufacturing a part. I would like to create an iLogic routine that can create a similar style of table that includes the distance from the edge of the part to the bend line (from the flat pattern) and also&amp;nbsp;include the&amp;nbsp;magnitude of the bend. Ideally I would start by selecting the lower sheet edge and then continue to select bend lines until I reach the middle of the sheet. The routine would then build a table and insert the dimension and bend angle for each line that was chosen. I am just getting started with iLogic and searched through this forum and online and was not able to find much guidance. Any help is appreciated!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mark&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Mark,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There is a lot of help on our websites including the Autodesk University where you will find many classes on the subject.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Try the following&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="http://adndevblog.typepad.com/.services/blog/6a0167607c2431970b0168e5d217cf970c/search?filter.q=iLogic" target="_self"&gt;Manufacturing WebBlog.&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or the &lt;A href="http://inventorhub.autodesk.com/" target="_self"&gt;Inventor Community&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the responses. I was hoping that someone may have had experience with building this type of forming table and could offer some insight. I will work through the suggested materials on API and iLogic and post more specific questions if I get stuck.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mark&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
