Curve Length as Reference Parameters in Rectangular Pattern

kresh.bell — Tue, 27 Dec 2022 06:56:36 GMT

Hi,

I have an adaptive part.

Does anyone know how I can use the Curve Length value for some other feature or as a linked value?

This value does not exist in Reference Parameters, nor is it in Model Parameters and User Parameters.

Hi!

It's possible to measure the line length, so I believe it's possible to get the value and turn it into a parameter with ilogic.

Ask for this in Inventor programming forum.

I recently asked the same question here, except it was for a Helix.

MESSAGE 5 OF 9 in that thread may link you to where you want to go.

Fairly easy if it's a solid with volume. But sometimes you want to be able to access the "Curve Length " itself so that you can quickly switch which sketch the Pattern refers.
