Hi all
For many years I have been threatening to learn ilogic.
Can anyone point me in the direction of, or send me some decent simple beginners tutorials
with the working files, for an absolute beginner to start learning.
I have googled but can find nothing simple and easy or with example files attached.
I am working on Inventor Pro 2018.
I have worked on Inventor for many years now (about 9 or 10)
and previously worked on AutoCAD since AutoCAD R12

You can have a look on this blog. You will find many examples there (al though not all is beginners stuff.)

Thanks Jelte
Will look
I am still a raw beginner, not ever having done ilogic before,
so I have still got to learn the absolute basics.
I first need to see what iLogic can do, ie what sort of things I can use it for.
I think I will try a few very basic examples first.
I have made a note of that website

If you are wondering what you can do with ilogic then i have great news. Almost every thing you can do manually you can also do with iLogic. I earn my living with automating stuff that people used to do manually. The endless possibilities are also a problem i think when you start learning iLogic (programming). It can be a bit overwhelming.
If i may advice you have a look at you daily work. find something that you need to do for each part, assembly or project. (My rule is: If I have to do a task more then 10 times in a week i need to automate it!) Maybe you do a simple task like filling the stock number that depend on the material for each part? If you found something try to automate it by iLogic. Start by looking at code of other people, often someone else has already done something similar. Google is your friend here! My search actions usually start with "Inventor api ....[subject]..." (api = application programming interface) And if you cant figure it out then ask for help on the forum. There are lots of smart people here that would be happy to help you.

Thanks
It is good to hear that.
At the moment I am not at work, on 4 week Christmas shutdown, and don't have access to work files.
So I might either leave the start of my ilogic learning till 11th Jan when I get back to work, or try something
from memory, or at least teach myself some of the extreme basics (ie how to write a rule)
I work on Inventor 2020 at work.
At home I have my own personal licensed copy of Inventor 2018, however the differences
between using ilogic on inventor 2018 & inventor 2020, I guess will be extremely minimal.
Is the ilogic programming language based on Visual Basic? Is it worth learning a few of the basics of the Visual Basic programming language?

In newer versions of Inventor/iLogic they only added stuff. so if you can make it work in 2018 it will also work in 2020.

iLogic is the same as VB (don't confuse it with VBa) . Any thing you learn form VB will also apply to iLogic.
(VBa is very simullar but you can't you cant copy VBa code to VB code)

Thanks a lot!
The ilogic tutorials are perfect, simple, easy to follow, step by step.
This will be my ilogic self teaching starting point
I will look at the vba tutorials as well

Does this include working with organic or sculpted bodies? I am looking to automate medical devices like 3d printed casts but I haven't been able to determine if that's possible with iLogic or another Autodesk product.
