ReadOnly I-Properties possible?

mucip — Sun, 07 Apr 2013 21:46:35 GMT

Hi,

I'm writing very simple PLM Program with VB Express 2010 on Inventor 2013. I save some data in Custom properties section. But I do not want to modify this data within Inventor. I want to use only my API program to change this Custom properties... Is this possible?...

Regards,

If you don't need others to view the properties maybe you can try to create a hidden property set whichcan by accessed by yourself. To add a hidden property set is to specify its name with an underline as prefix like below:

Dim oDoc As Document
Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
    
Dim oSet As PropertySet
Set oSet = oDoc.PropertySets.Add("_Hidden")

If you add a hidden property set you should restore its name/internal name somewhere to make sure you can access it again.
