How do i get this diameter "Ø310" in a drawing?
I have named the edge in the model "assign name, Edge_1"
Diameter from the edge using Ilogic
Accepted solution
Hi @manu.marjanen. What version/year of Inventor are you using? If you are using 2021 or newer there is a helpful feature that allows you to right click on drawing view geometry and select 'iLogic' > 'Capture Current State' from that right click menu, and it will generate a bit of iLogic code and show it to you in a small pop-up dialog, which I believe copies the code to the clipboard for you. Then you can directly paste that code into an iLogic rule. If the selected geometry did not already have it's geometry 'named' this technique will add a default name to it within the model document, and display that name within the pasted code, to identify it. Here is a link to that feature's documentation. If you are using an older version, or don't want to use that, you might try naming the adjacent face(s) instead of the edge, then try identifying the geometry to be dimensioned by that face. Either way it may still be difficult to set-up, because the same edge/face exists on (both sides / all the way around) of the cylinder in that 2D view of the part.
