features on and off with iLogic

[j.vanderheijden]

I want different features on and off with iLogic.

I have a text parameter with a choice menu of 1,2, and 3

This I want some features  on and off.

If I pass the parameter I get a message: No feature found with the name.

I think you want to supress the parts. There are no features in that Assembly - thus the error.

Create a new level of detail, then run this

If AantalKoppelingen = 1 Then
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = False
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False
ElseIf AantalKoppelingen = 2 Then
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = True
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False
End If
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

If you are planning on doing more than 2-3 IF statements you should consider CASE Statements - much faster.

Select Case AantalKoppelingen
	Case 1: Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = False
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False
	
	Case 2: Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = True
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False
	
	Case 3: Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = False
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = False
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False
	
	Case 4: Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis") = True
	Component.IsActive("KlemTStuk") = True
	Component.IsActive("Buis:1") = True
	Component.IsActive("KlemHoekstuk:1") = False    
End Select
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

Thanks Jonathan

The Case statement works.

But now i go a step further.

I have more types of couplings on one place and i want to control them to.

The parameter 'TypeAftakking' controls the type and the parameter 'aantalKoppelingen' controls the number of couplings.

The number of couplings go's good but when i change the TypeAftakking i get an error.

I have to make 10 couplings and 9 pipes in between.

In the TypeAftakking wil be at least 20 couplings.

I think that i can't use same case numbers in both rules.

It's a matter of setting both parts to False first, you can do this manually, but also through the code.

Component.IsActive("K1-01:1") = False
Component.IsActive("K7-01:1") = False
Select Case TypeAftakking
    Case 1: 
    Component.IsActive("K1-01:1") = True
    Component.IsActive("K7-01:1") = False
    Case 7: 
    Component.IsActive("K1-01:1") = False
    Component.IsActive("K7-01:1") = True
End Select
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

[j.vanderheijden]

When i want to change TypeAftakking i get an error.

I wondering if i have to make a level of detail because in the code you turn of the components first.

But i put the level of detail to master and then i get the message that there is no level of detail.

Hi,

Could you list the code how you changed TypeAftakking? It will be of help for the peers to diagnose. thank you.

[j.vanderheijden]

I use two types of code.

The first to select the type of Aftakking.

And the second to select the numbers for AantalKoppelingen

Select Case TypeAftakking
 Case 1: Component.IsActive("K1-01:1") = True
               Component.IsActive("K7-01:1") = False
 

Case 7: Component.IsActive("K1-01:1") = False
             Component.IsActive("K7-01:1") = True
 
End Select
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

Select Case AantalKoppelingen
 Case 1: Component.IsActive("KoppelingT1-01:1") = True
               Component.IsActive("L1-01:1") = False
               Component.IsActive("KoppelingT2-01:1") = False
 
 Case 2: Component.IsActive("KoppelingT1-01:1") = True
               Component.IsActive("L1-01:1") = True
               Component.IsActive("KoppelingT2-01:1") = True
    
End Select
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

Yes, you do have to have a level of detail and it has to be selected. Sorry, thought I made that clear.

That goes for anytime you are changing visuals - manually or via script.

[j.vanderheijden]

Must I then make for every situation a different level of detail?

[jdkriek]

No, not unless you want to show every combination separately on the drawing.

[j.vanderheijden]

  My starting point is 10 couplings  and 9 pieces of pipe .
Now it may happen that I would turn off  1 or more couplings with pipe .
In the coupling can be also variations of different types.

work great if you dont want to change your choice, when is not active because de first choice the rule dont work, it's possible to remake de component active???

Thanks for your help!
