Update Asset In Layout

[ederson.balbinot]

Hello!

I am creating blocks for Factory and am facing the following problem:

When I insert into a layout two occurrences of the same block while editing one another receives the same updates even though they are different occurrences.
Follow the images below:

As you can see in the highlights this "code" that I believe to be generated by the Factory is the same in both instances soon the Inventor should "understand" as the same piece.

Considerations to be made:

- the blocks are modified through changed parameters via the graphical interface of an Add-In.
- I'm doing the Add-in in C#;
- I look for the item to be changed in the assembly through the commandPicker looking for a ComponentOccurrence;
- the block has illogic rules (I do not think it influences);

Thanks for the collaboration.

Hello there,
It sounds lie you are manipulating the Inventor parameters of a file that was generated by placing a Factory asset. Please be aware that this is not supported. That is, you can obviously do this via Inventor API, but Factory workflows, like sync, will not work as-expected. Factory data should be manipulated via the Factory Property Panel.

Thank you,

Oleg

Is there any possibility of manipulating the Factory panel through the API?
I would like this because in this block there are many settings besides information that I need to look for in a database for example...

Thanks for the answer!

Unfortunately there is no public Factory API that supports parameter manipulation

Hello.

I can not believe that Autodesk did not do this editable via API, but we'll expect it to be implemented in future releases.

Thank you very much.
