Hi

I'm trying to suppress/activate features in a part

If condition A is true

 Set_features (hole1, hole2...)

 if ofeature = Set_features then

 Feature.IsActive ( ofeature) = True

Else 

 Feature.IsActive ( ofeature) = False

My question is how to define a set of features?

This is what I got for parts in assembly, but doesn't work. Any suggestions?

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

' GROUP MEMBERS TO ACTIVATE/SUPPRESS

MEMBER1GROUP = New String(){"MEMBER1"}

'SELECT MEMBERS THAT ARE REQUIRED

If MEMBER_1 = 1 Then
        For Each Value As String In MEMBER1GROUP
            Try  
                If Value = MEMBER1GROUP Then
                Component.IsActive(Value) = True
                Else
                Component.IsActive(Value) = False
                End If
            Catch
            End Try
        Next
End If

A similar solution was made in the proposed in the past:

Sub Main()
    'Take your old iLogic and put it in a Sub Main/End Sub Wrap.
     If Band_Lengte = 900 Then
              Poot_Afstand_1 = 80
              Poot_Afstand_2 = 600
              Aandrijf_Afstand = 145

            'Swap your old call with the new one
              'Feature.IsActive("Poot Pattern2","Poot Pattern3","Gaten_Span")=False
              FeaturesActive(False, "Poot Pattern2", "Poot Pattern3", "Gaten_Span")
    End if
End Sub

'Copy/paste this sub into the same rule and don't touch anything in it.
Sub FeaturesActive(boolActive As Boolean, ByVal ParamArray features As String())
 For Each i As String In features
    Feature.IsActive(i) = boolActive
  Next 
End Sub

Thanks Justin

Thanks for your reply.

I did see that thread. As you said, it will solve the 'suppress/activate' action. But I intend to use the group execute other actions, may be, change material, change supplier, etc. 

Essentially, I'm after

1. creating a group for parts, for example:

MEMBER1GROUP = New String(){"MEMBER1", "MEMBR2", ....}

2. Loop to action for each member of that group, for example: 

If MEMBER_1 = 1 Then
        For Each Value As String In MEMBER1GROUP
            Try  
                If Value = MEMBER1GROUP Then
                Component.IsActive(Value) = True
                Else
                Component.IsActive(Value) = False
                End If
            Catch
            End Try
        Next
End If

This approach will allow me to add members to a group at later stage and add/change actions to be executed to members in selected groups

I guess I figured it out. Just had to simplify the statements

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

'Create member group
MEMBER1GROUP = New String(){"MEMBER1", "MEMBER2", "MEMBER3"}'Create action: suppres / activate condition
For Each VALUE In MEMBER1GROUP
    If MEMBER_1 = 0 Then
    Component.IsActive(VALUE)=False
            
    ElseIf MEMBER_1 = 1 Then
    Component.IsActive(VALUE)=True
    End If
Next
