iLogic and different language

[Rob67ert]

Just a simple question; could it be that some iLogic rule's will not work on stations with an other language on the OS?

I already find that there is a difference between a point and comma...

Hi --

In general, iLogic rules should run in any language ... but ... 

* Comma vs period for decimal.  You have to use the period for decimal in code.  This is standard for all programming languages.

* Certain Inventor "default names" are translated if you don't change their names or use an alternative.  E.g., if you create a workplane on an English system, the name will be "Work Plane 1".  If you open the file in a different-language system, the workplane's name will be changed.  And hence your iLogic rule won't find it (if it was looking for it).  Same thing for features, etc.  The solution is always to rename your features/components/workfeatures, etc., to some other name that you provide (anything except the Inventor default name).  Then it will not be translated.
