capturing the browser node name in a pattern with iLogic

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am looking to see if I can use iLogic to capture the browser node name (highlighted below) of items contained in a pattern. I would like to be able to grab the name based on it's position in the element (1,2,3...). For example 16773-Nut is position 1.

This needs work if you have more then one pattern but it's a good start

Dim doc = ThisDoc.Document
Dim BrowserPane = doc.BrowserPanes("Model")
Dim TopNode = BrowserPane.TopNode
Dim CompNode As ComponentOccurrence
EndFound = False
For Each node As BrowserNode In TopNode.BrowserNodes
	If node.BrowserNodeDefinition.Label Like "*Component Pattern*" Then EndFound = True
	If EndFound = True Then 
		CompName = node.BrowserNodes.Item(1).BrowserNodes.Item(1).BrowserNodeDefinition.Label
		CompNode = doc.ComponentDefinition.Occurrences.ItemByName(CompName)
		Exit For
	End If
Next
If Not CompNode Is Nothing Then MessageBox.Show("CompNodeName = " & CompNode.Name, "Title")

Thank you that helps tremendously! I assume I could do the same for items in a folder?

I am just getting back on this project and I failed after many attempts to modify the code to work with a nested pattern.  Could anyone provide some assistance? Thanks!

Can you start a new thread and post a image of the nested browser tree and add more detail as to what you want in the end? We can do loops that look for certain conditions but we need to know what those conditions are.
