Dont know how to place a copy of a component or assembly in an assembly with ilogic code

[richie_rQYQ8U]

Hi,

Can Anyone rewrite this code to add a copy of the component into the assembly Please.

'Place Steel channel
Dim Steel_Deck_Pos = ThisAssembly.Geometry.Matrix(0, 0, -1, 0,
                                                   0, 1, 0, 0,
                                                   1, 0, 0, 0,
                                                   0, 0, 0, 1)
Dim Steel_Deck = Components.Add("_Steel Deck", "Steel Deck.ipt",
                                  position := Steel_Deck_Pos,
                                  grounded := True)

Here is an example of using the built in component.add method and then just specify the occurrence to target. change the occurrence name to whatever you need.

Dim comp As ManagedComponentOccurrence = Components.Item("Part")
Dim partDoc As PartDocument = comp.Occurrence.Definition.Document
MessageBox.Show(partDoc.FullFileName, "Title")

Dim PartPos = ThisAssembly.Geometry.Point(-2429.92508, 8568.343945, -695.96213)
Dim Part = Components.Add("", partDoc.FullFileName, PartPos)
