Derived part - automatic update.

[aurel_e]

Hi all

Is there any possibility in Inventor to update automatically a derived part without having to press the update button?

You could try to create an ilogic rule like this in the part file,

RuleParametersOutput()
Parameter.UpdateAfterChange = True
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True
InventorVb.DocumentUpdate()

and through the events control when you want it to be activated automatically , for example before saving the file, when there is any parameter change, or any change in the geometry of the part

This could be another form of the rule

Dim controlDef As ControlDefinition = ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("AppLocalUpdateCmd")
controlDef.Execute
