Opening a Form when New Drawing Created

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello all,


I have created a new drawing template using an iLogic Form and Prompted Entry.  What I would like is a Rule that is generated when a user opens a new drawing template.  The rule that is created would open up the new iLogic Form I created where various Title Block information is entered (Client Name, Client Address, Date, Drawn By, etc...  I know you can manually open the iLogic Form that I created via the iLogic tab, but I would prefer the form open upon opening the new drawing.  Once comlpeted, the user than imputs the Prompted Entry values (Drawing Name, Drawing Number, etc...).  Can anyone come up with a rule or point me in the direction of one that has already been created?

 

Regards,

I am sure it is a fairly simple/ easy code.

Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're asking for, it's very simple - in fact, only one line of code.

 

Create a rule with the following line:

 

 iLogicForm.Show("insert form name")

 

Then set your rule to run from the "New Document" trigger.

I have this in my drawing template as well,

 

Like John said, it is one line rule, a snippet as well, just need to enter the exact form name and set the trigger to run the rule upon opening a new drawing

I knew it was that easy. I have never used iLogic (very little knowledge).  That is exactly what I needed!
Thank you kind sirs for your help!


This new template I have created earned me a "Nice job, well done!" From my boss..Such simple things like this go a LONG way!
