Get Document Subtype (FrameGenerator, ContentCenter, Substitute, ...)

[Anonymous]

Hello

is it possible to get the documenttype of the following ipt-model files
(equal to the sheetmetal part, ...If DocumentObject.SubType = "{9C464203-9BAE-11D3-8BAD-0060B0CE6BB4}")

- ContentCenter Part
- Tube and Pipe Part
- Cable and harness part
- Frame Generator part
- Substitute part

we need it to fill in diffrent userproperties from/to our ERP system.

Thanks for any tips

As of Inventor 2008, tube/pipe, cable/harness & Frame Generator stamp their
documents with "document interests", indicating that they have an "interest"
in a document. I've attached the list of interest names for such documents
as well as some sample code.


Substitute parts - PartDocument.IsSubstitutePart property returns this type.



Content center parts - Use the hidden ContentCenter.ContentCenterControlled
method.

Hi Sanjay, just wondering if there was a set of constants for these defined in the API. Such as a DocumentInterestType?

Hi Josh,

No, there is not. Just the set of hard-coded strings.

Hi,

I have used the additional propertysets for the filter!

For example the Content Center Files have 2 additional propertySets:

• Content Library Component Properties
• ContentCenter

The same for the other parts..
