how to make automatic triggering?

[Anonymous]

I have linked two parts and created some ilogic rules but the trigger is happening automatically. when I change the parameter of a part.I want to get it as automatically triggered

Do you mean a part inside of an assembly?  If a parameter change is connected to physical change of the part you can make a sketch at the assembly level and apply a reference dimension to some projected geometry.

let me elaborate. I have created a two-part file and linked two part file using parameters and I have created an ilogic rule which is like if I make a change in one part another part also will get regenerated but i have to manually trigger that.is there any option to trigger automatically

Event Triggers.  Or more complex .Net Events.  If the triggering is not where you want try different events, such as before save.  iLogic Event Triggers have a smaller subset of all the events Inventor actually throws around.  In the .Net coding you can Add Handler to a much larger set of events (even to the point of detriment), that then run your custom code whenever that event is fired off.  Anytime you think 'Automatic' your thinking about these Events, but the hard part becomes which event to work with (if not many), and when to activate your handler or deactivate it so that it does not become a burden to the program/user.
