iLogic trim centerline at countour option

[yvandelafontaine]

Hello all,

When I export a flat pattern there is the option to trim centerline at countour:

When using the ilogic export option i cannot seem to find the option argument needed to put it a "True"

EX: sOut = "FLAT PATTERN DXF?AcadVersion=2000&RebaseGeometry=True&SimplifySplines=False&TrimCenterlineAtContour=True&OuterProfileLayer....

Anybody figured this one out yet?

Hi yvandelafontaine,

Unfortunately, that option is currently not available through the API.

Dear Autodesk. Can you please add this option into the API. This option has been added to Inventor 2015 or 2016 and the API was never updated to cater for this. PLEASE add it as its not complete.

Thank you!

This idea has been implemented in Inventor 2019

That is fantastic news thank you!

Just one question. How to use it...?

Would this work?

TrimCenterlineAtContour=True

or 

TrimCenterlinesAtContour=True

I cannot find any info in the API help...

Thanks again!

Ok for anyone else looking for an answer.

I presume this fix came in 2019 update 1. The correct string to use is: "&TrimCenterlinesAtContour=True"

Cheers
