iLogic Top Level User Parameter

[chayman]

Is is possible when creating a user parameter at the top level assembly, that it could drive the exact same user parameter in a sub assembly using iLogic?

For example I have a width that changes depending on a percentage. For a 6" width @ 100% = 6", for a 6" width @ 80% = 4.8" etc.

I created a user parameter in the sub assembly called "Percent_Width" (numerical value - ul). 

Using iLogic, I can adjust the width accordingly using a form and entering the percentage (between 1ul and 0.3ul)

I then dropped the sub assembly into a TLA and created the exact same user parameter.

Now I am having difficulty using iLogic to control the width from the TLA.

I know I can create a lot of if statements to get it to work but is there any easier way?

Are you saying you want to SYNC the same user parameter across multiple assemblies to be the same value, or something else yet?

Hi! I am not an iLogic expert. But, what you described here should work. At the top level assembly, the rule at top level can access any parameter at lower levels. If it does not work, please attach an example so forum experts can comment further.

Many thanks!

Essentially yes.

I want a user parameter in the top level assembly to control a user
parameter in the sub assembly - these just happen to be the same user
parameter.

yes, I do this all the time, I often use the same "parameter" name at the assembly level as individual parts... saves on me having to remember parameter names within parts or sub assemblies and their parts.
