Ilogic-How to auto select bodies when derive part in part?

[Anonymous]

I am drawing a part base(part5.ipt) and derive it into part 1. When I add bodies to part base (part5.ipt), part 1 does not automatically update bodies. Can you help me (using ilogic). Thanks

Hi @Anonymous 

Try this iLogic rule 🙂

Dim oDoc As PartDocument = ThisDoc.Document
Dim oDerComp As DerivedPartComponent = oDoc.ComponentDefinition.ReferenceComponents.DerivedPartComponents.Item(1)
Dim oDef As DerivedPartDefinition = oDerComp.Definition
oDef.IncludeAll
oDerComp.Definition = oDef

If you setup a View Representation in (part5.ipt) you can link the derived part to that view representation.  So when things get added to the view representation and saved, (part1.ipt) will automatically want to update. No iLogic would be needed for update.
