Ilogic to automatically set LevelofDetail to Master

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I have a master assembly, using 'SavecopyAs' command I am creating copy of this assembly  with few parts suppressed (LevelofDetail1).

In the newly created assembly I need to export BOM automatically using below command. But it is possible only when levelofDetail is in 'Master' not in 'LevelofDetail1'. I am looking for a code that automatically activate 'Master' and execute the Export.BOM command.

ThisBOM.Export("Parts Only", "RoofpanelBOM.xls", kMicrosoftExcelFormat)

Looking for help

Thanks

Hi rudresh_middleby,

This should work:

'activate Master LOD
ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition. _
RepresentationsManager.LevelofDetailRepresentations("Master").Activate

 I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
