iLogic Message Box Scroll?

[mwighton]

I have an iLogic code that scans my assembly and creates a list of parts and the number of occurances for each. The assembly's I usually work with are very large, 1000+ parts, and the message box that appears does not have a scroll on it. The results in the window go below where I can see.

Is there a way to add a scroll to the message box?

Is there a way for me to see these retults?

Thanks,

Hi Mwighton

I don't think messagebox support to add scroll bar. If you want to output more content, it would be better to export as a text file. Below is a sample for your reference, it will create a text file in the folder where you save the Inventor file.

Name=CStr(ThisDoc.PathAndFileName(False))
oWrite = System.IO.File.CreateText(CStr(Name)& ".txt")

i=1
While i<=100
SMessage=SMessage+"Hello Inventor"+"  "+CStr(i)+"  "+vbCrLf
i=i+1
End While

ThisDoc.Launch(CStr(Name)& ".txt")
oWrite.WriteLine("Output to Notepad")
oWrite.WriteLine(SMessage)
oWrite.Close()

Regards,
