iLogic Create Part List on a Sheet by selecting Balloons on Drawing Views

Hi there,

 

Through a Drawing with several sheets we try to create an instruction manual based on an assembly.

Next, on a certain sheet, we like to have a Parts Lists with only the items which are Ballooned in certain views on that sheet.

The Parts List filter 'Ballooned Item Only' is not limited to that certain sheet with as result that on every sheet with a Parts List the Ballooned items appear.
Hidding the rows(what we do now) is not an alternative with 20 or more sheet to manage.

 

Is it possible with ILogic to place a 'Parts List Body'(without rows) and add rows by selecting Balloons?
Something like(just an idea):

'Select Balloon(s) and do things
While True
Dim oBalloon As Object = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(SelectionFilterEnum.kBalloonFilter, "Select a Balloon to add a Parts List Row") 
     If Not oBalloon Is Nothing Then
	oBalloon.addRowToPartsList = True			
     End If

If
IsNothing(oBalloon) Then Exit While
End While

 

Anyone?

Thanks in advance.

 

Greetings!

No code needed for that.

It is already in the inventor filter of the partlist.

Filer on show only ballooned items!

Thanks for your reaction,

 

Please check as described:

The Parts List filter 'Ballooned Item Only' is not limited to that certain sheet with as result that on every sheet with a Parts List the Ballooned items appear.
Hidding the rows(what we do now) is not an alternative with 20 or more sheet to manage. 

 

Did we miss an option to get rid of that behavior?

Could you send a pdf of the drawing to see what you need?
