iLogic copy iProperties formula

[Anonymous]

Hi!

Did not find any answers to this one, but it should be easy?

I want to copy one iProperty to another, but I want to copy the formula, not the text.

This one copies only the text. i want to copy this: =<DimX> x <DimY> t=<DimZ>

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

iProperties.Value("Custom", "Specification") = iProperties.Value("Custom", "SpecificationItem")

Thanks:)

I have tried to use the examples in inventor iLogic, but with no success, im not that good at the API...

As in the picture, I want the expression (=<DimX> x <DimY> t=<Thickness>) to be copied, not the value (1757 x 230,7 t=1,5).

btw, using Inventor 2014

Hi Nickolas,

I have not noticed that you are using ilogic..

The below ilogic code snippet will work!

Use your iProperties, I have used some dummy iProperties(Specification, Specifications). NJoy 🙂

*********************************************************************

Sub Main()
Dim oCompDoc As Document
Dim oProp As String
Dim oPropSet As PropertySet
oCompDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

oPropSet = oCompDoc.PropertySets.Item("Inventor User Defined Properties")

iProp = oPropSet.Item("Specification").Expression

iProperties.Value("Custom", "Specifications") = iProp
End Sub

********************************************************************
