Can we inject code in model which will re-run if certain geometry changes?

[Anonymous]

Let's say that we have the following model:

• Extrusion 1
• Extrusion 2 //it can be Revolve or anything else, of course.
• Extrusion 3
• Extrusion 4
• etc.

I want to execute code after Extrusion 4 and I want to base the Extrusion 5 upon the results of Extrusion 4.

I want to re-run the code above each time when the geometry defined by Extrusion 4 is modified.

Is this possible?

There a some options on the ilogic "event triggers" that will allow you to run rules when parameters in a model change. Under the assemblies tab, "Any Model Parameter Change" can be used as a trigger.

Some of these are easier to use and then call a vba macro from ilogic, de-bugging is easier in vba than ilogic.

I'm not entirely sure I follow...maybe more explanation would help?

iLogic rules don't really run at a specific point in your model browser.  They can change features, parameters, etc of the part based on other parameters or user selections etc.

As earlier stated, you could setup an Event Trigger to run a specific rule and inside that rule, possibly check to see if you need to make changes.

Without more information, I'm afraid I'm just taking stabs in the dark.
