Hello Ttogether, when you make a Window selection with SelectEvents (API), it isn't possible to select when you edit a sketch which isn't the last one. Allow to select also in this 'older' sketches. A more detailed description you can find under https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/selectionevent-in-sketch-environment/m-p/7863744#M82116. Best Regards Wolfgang

Add the ability to read and change localized property values to the API. There are many properties that are language specific (mainly the DisplayName property). A good example would be the material and appearance assets. Today, you can not change these localized properties at once: you must close Inventor and restart it with the language you want. possible implementation: Inventor.Application m_application = ...; // the current inventor application object Inventor.Asset appearance = ...; // the inventor object for which the localized property shall be read / changed string propertyName = "DisplayName"; // name of the property that shall be read / changed string languageCode = "de"; // ISO 639-1 language code // read localized text string localizedText = m_application.LanguageTools.GetLocalizedValue(appearance, propertyName, languageCode); // change localized text m_application.LanguageTools.SetLocalizedValue(appearance, propertyName, languageCode, "Blabla");

Inventor should allow users to upload files straight to the Autodesk cloud (A360). Like Fusion 360, this will improve productivity.

Saludos a todos! ¿ Hay alguna forma de actualizar las reglas de manera automática? hice una regla y no se actualiza inmediatamente, debo actualizarla desde el panel browser de ilogic para ver sus resultados. atento a cualquier comentario... saludos...

Do you have patterns that consistently need to be reorganized based on configuration changes? Why use Code to dictate qty when you could simply start a pattern with "Qty of 1" and then develop the rules from there? I had a configuration that has complex rules for Qty changes in patterns and as I had spent hours and hours trying to chase the qty up and down, I realized if I made my template with just qty of 1 it created a suitable and yet more effective environment for configuration edits. Sometimes there can be hundreds of components in a pattern, but why make the code for all of these if you only need it for one configuration? Start at 1 for the pattern QTY, and watch your code shrink and your models stabilize as you can suppress that pattern much easier......

Automate changes without replacing parts, and potentially saving Terabytes with Skeleton Modeling concepts and some extremely simple iLogic rules. Support this Brainstormy idea for streamlining Libraries and Assemblies in Manufacturing Design.

Hi everyone! Sometimes I forget to save as before click to these buttons (Place iLogic component and Open bill of material) I think if you may add buttons to the attached windows (Save as or save) it would be great! Because without this button I need to close this window and go and save . It is unnecessary clicks and actions

Hello, actually working on an Addin in which I need to edit the selected Sheetmetal Cornerfeature's definition. Currently there is no real option for this, since the CornerFeature.Definition is readonly.... My current workaround is to copy the definition, delete the original feature, create a new one, pass the name of the original, and so on... since this results in a change of the feature generated edge/face ID's, relying features get corrupt. I generally miss a common concept for editing Features by API. All of them are inherited from Partfeature, aren't they? Could a common Edit-Concept be implemented on this level??? I also miss the "Start/ExitEdit" method itself for most features, I believe to seen it on some Partfeature's help in the doc. In my understanding this shall maintain the temporary suppression of the feature and the Browser-node appearance with grayed out subtree, as it is in Inventor's own editing state..... Previewhandling might be another Idea, I just put here my raw thought's on it... when editing a feature via API (speaking of "standard" features not clientfeatures though), there should be a method "GeneratePreview", which generates the Clientgraphics during edit.... Now I unsuppress the feature after editing its definition, collect the faces+edges created, copy them to the clientgraphics, suppress the feature again to mimic a preview.... this is the only way I found so far, but it "stinks", I know. Not to mention the terrible performance of this workflow.... BR, Daniel

Sabemos que hay Autodesk Training Center y Academic Partner en todo el mundo. Pero lo que es curioso, es que cada centro imparte capacitación a su conveniencia, a su estilo y bajos sus criterios. Mi idea consiste en estandarizar toda la capacitación mundial del software de Autodesk Inventor en todas los ATC y los AAAP de manera que cualquier usuario pueda hacer un nivel básico en cualquier país y seguir con niveles avanzados en cualquier otro país. Mi idea se extiende a todos los software de Autodesk. Pero por otro lado comento también, que si se expone una idea, es porque se ha detectado un problema o debilidad a lo que esta idea, generaría la respectiva solución. Basado en este criterio, informo que nosotros @ATCAbstract hemos estandarizado la capacitación en Inventor, Fusion 360, AutoCAD y Revit. y a todos los ATC y AAAP que lean este post, le ofrecemos la voluntad de apoyarles para unificar criterios de esta filosofía de capacitación mundial. Si les pareció útil esta información, por favor dar clic en Kudos (Los kudos son fuentes de motivación para seguir aportando en esta comunidad)

iFeatures can be so useful in saving modeling time. In my line of work I often use various bushings which have varying tolerances depending on their diameters. I would love for Inventor to allow for parameters to be placed in the tolerance fields (in this case a deviation tolerance) so that in my iFeature I could change the tolerance and have them show up when I retrieve dimensions on my drawing. I think it is a simple, straight forward idea that many people could benefit from.

I would like to convert a standard part to a tube and pipe part like a fitting for example. In the UI you would chose Author->Tube and Pipe and then select a working point and an axis and there you are. This is currently not possible using the API. At least it is not possible without any user interaction. But i would need this to be fully done automatically.

we have 4 wish list: 1, Our material information not only include material trademark,bur also include material standard,specification and condition.We assumed that these properties are filled in the description,the manufacturer, the note.But the properties ,which are filled in the description,the manufacurer,cannot be extracted to be called by ilogic,iproperty,title bar and excel. 2, We want to measure of the diameter of the ball directly,instead of creating the cuxiliary line to the sphere,and measuing the length of the line. 3, I can only adjust the size of the entire symbol in the blue box in following picture,but cannot adjust the line width in the red box in the following picture. 4, Crossing components projection will automatically generate adaptive parts and features , it is easy to cause the reference cycle and other errors. I wish that the projection will not automatically generate adaptive parts and features.I wish that we can only generate the adaptive parts and features by manual operation.

It is now possible to read only attributes by means of ApprenticeServer. I want to be able to save the change attributes using commands on the ApprenticeServer.

Inventor Engineers To Order: It would be great if there was a possibility to create a child containing the list of other children that would be presented as a view representation in assembly. It would be much easier to develop drawings.

Recently, I had a need to place a screw into an iLogic model. The model geometry is created by a plethora of iLogic rules and is dynamic in nature. The area available for the screw to be introduced fluctuates in its shape and in size. It’s very difficult to place this screw and size it (screw size and length) with no evaluation of whether it’s crashing into other geometry or not. I would like to change the placement, size and length of the screw based on the available area and geometry. It would be great if there was a command called “Evaluate Hardware” or “Automate Hardware Component Replace” where I could just pick the hardware family that I would like to use, add or remove certain sizes and lengths from the list, place the screw and select the geometry (faces or surfaces) that I would like to evaluate. As more area becomes available, the screw size and length would increase based on other iLogic rules. The form could look something like this: Thanks, Len

I would like the ability to suppress a BOM/parts list. I want to be able to change the suppression/visibility of a table using iLogic. I am setting up iLogic driven drawing templates. In our multi sheet format the second page has top level BOM designating multiple lower level assemblies. These lower level assemblies (on the same page) have exploded .ipn files with their own BOM. Using iLogic I am able to change the suppression state of the model, the Parts in the Top Level BOM and the Drawing Views but it leaves the BOM/Table there. If I could change the placement, suppress and un-suppress, make visible and invisible, or just delete and import the tables would be a tremendous help to make my companies drawings fully automated.

Allow for setting an external rule to be fired in the event triggers via API/iLogic. As I understand it, there is currently no direct way to accomplish this. I am aware of the "create an internal rule to run the external rule..." work around, but that's ugly. This is needed for updating old files to use new and shiny automation without a lot of excess clicking (and relying on my co-workers to remember to do it). There is also an idea floating around here somewhere for adding "Global Event Triggers". If this were implemented, it would solve my problem.

When using iLogic forms I need to go deeper than 7 when using rows after that the whole thing is screwed up! please increase

As a long term inventor trainer and supervisor of an inventor using businesses I naturally have a significant request and improvement list. One thing has been keeping us busy and more and more I think this subject is always current with increased I-logic usage. How do I protect my intelligent parts? (like master parts, etc.) We can write anything in a master-part like costs, design decisions and design rules… these parts are getting more sensitive the more we are placing them. For example foreign abuse or even file stealing. This Situation makes us not using I-Logic as much as possible, because we currently don't know how to protect our "super parametric parts" for the future. Hence my request suggestion for the future: Files are not backward compatible, which is an advantage here. Autodesk introduces an online patent system on the Autodesk Server. I sign my “super component” at Autodesk online as "my patent" and give my serial number (or Numbers…) with it. The patent server by Autodesk encodes this component with my serial number and sets a "flag". The new version of inventor (for example 2014) detects during loading this "flag" and checks if it’s necessary to check the serial number with the registered serial number. If the Number is registered with this part, it opens normally. If the Number is not listed, the Part opens for example without I-Logic rules or at a higher level of security it is loaded as a simple body part. That would be an improvement in my opinion! The customers can load this part with the last saved values of the parameters and the way to his parameters is hidden and safe! Or when the whole body construction is secured, the part open like a “dead” step file. We can push the I-logic up to the top without being afraid that our knowledge is stolen at some point!
