Add button to ribbon - Autoproject edges during curve creation

Add button to ribbon to toggle the function  "Autoproject edges during curve creation" on and off 

So it can quicky turned on and off without going into Application options every time. 

This to make selection more easy when there are a lot of features.

Hi @dennis.doornbos 

 

If you are using Inventor 2023 you can create an iLogic rule to toggle this option and add this to the ribbon. If using an earlier version you can still create the rule and use run it from the iLogic Browser, but can not add the button to the ribbon.

 

Steps to do so:

  • Create an external iLogic rule and paste in this line of code
ThisApplication.SketchOptions.AutoProjectEdges = not ThisApplication.SketchOptions.AutoProjectEdges 

 

  • On the Tools tab click the Customization button
  • Set the "Choose Commands From" drop down to "iLogic Rules"
  • Find your rule in the list

  • Set the "Choose tab to add custom panel to" option to "* Part | Sketch"
  • Click the >> button to add the button to the panel
  • Click the Large and Text check boxes as desired.
  • Click the OK button

Your new button will show something like this:
