Multi-value parameter sort order

Multi-value parameter sort order

Add support to list numerical multi-value parameters numerically instead of alphabetically.

 

Add following multi-values:

  • 50 mm
  • 75 mm
  • 100 mm

Resulting sort order is:

  • 100 mm
  • 50 mm
  • 75 mm

Preferred sort order would be in ascending numerical order. Option to choose sort order could be a benefit to some users.

 

I know there is a post for adding sorting support in iLogic forms, but this request is for basic Inventor.

 

 

Regards,

Jerry

Found an iLogic solution to sort the MultiValue parameters:

 

  1.  Create a MultiValue parameter.

  2.  Create a new iLogic rule.

  3.  Paste this code and then modify the parameter name and the list.

MultiValue.SetList("Length", "50 mm", "75 mm", "100 mm")

  4. Save and Run the rule.

  5. The parameter will now display in the order set in the iLogic code.

You can suppress or delete the iLogic rule, but you may wish to maintain it in case new parameter sizes are required.

 

Hope this is helpful.

Jerry

The ability to rearrange parameters would be a welcome improvement.

Not only rearrange parameters in the list but also the ability to rearrange rows in the Parameter table would be appreciated. As I gradually build a model I am adding new user parameters and finally they requires rearrangement to keep them in order from the most important in the first row.
