iLogic Drawing Error

Anonymous — Mon, 20 Mar 2017 15:32:19 GMT

I am trying to troubleshoot an ilogic generator. The assembly works, the drawing causes issues. The error message, attached below. Pops up repeatedly when the drawing is opened, the error message only goes away when the sheet is collapsed. I have a screencast of the event linked. I believe the issue is linked to the BOM but not certain. I have also attached the Rule that drives the component in hopes someone can spot the issue. Unfortunately I did not create the rule so I don't know the logic behind it.

Dim doc as AssemblyDocument = ThisDoc.Document  
Dim oLOD As LevelOfDetailRepresentation  
Dim oAsmCompDef As ComponentDefinition  
oAsmCompDef = doc.ComponentDefinition 
Try 
oLOD = oAsmCompDef.RepresentationsManager.LevelOfDetailRepresentations.Item("iLogic").Activate(True)
Catch
Dim nLOD As LevelOfDetailRepresentation
nLOD = oAsmCompDef.RepresentationsManager.LevelOfDetailRepresentations.Add("iLogic")
oLOD = nLOD
Finally
oLOD = oAsmCompDef.RepresentationsManager.LevelOfDetailRepresentations.Item("iLogic").Activate(True)
End Try

Thats an assembly level ilogic rule.. Why is the drawing running that rule also?

Thats the problem.. The rule should not be running for the drawing..

There are no rules in the drawing itself, its somehow running the rule in the assembly. The assembly does have the "Any Model Parameter Change" and "Component Suppression Change" Event Triggers active.

So if you temporarily disable the triggers in the assembly does the problem still happen?
