[mjplaatwerk]

Hi there,

Is it possible to save and replace a part from an assembly in iLogic?

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Yes you will be able to do this.

Could you attach your model please?

Thomas.

This is the case.

I've got an assembly (Box-parametric.iam) of a box (Box-parametric.ipt) with
a lid (Lid-parametric.ipt).

With the help of a form in ilogic I can change the dimensions of the box and
the lid within the assembly.

Now I want to "save as" the partfile of the box with a filename that
consists of the word "Box" followed by the dimensions of the box.

I've figured out how to make the correct new filename but I don't know how
to "save as" a partfile from the assembly.

The same goes for the lid.

After the "save as" I want to replace the box (parametric) with the box with
the dimensions in the filename and the same for the lid.

At last I want to "save as" the assembly with the filename followed by the
dimensions.

It really depends on how the rest of your script is coded to understand the best way forward.

ONE possible way is as below:

'To Save an occurrence:
oSaveName = "C:\PartTest.ipt"
Dim compOcc = Component.InventorComponent("430-1986:1")
compOcc.Definition.Document.SaveAs(oSaveName, True)

'To Save the top level:
oFileNameHere = "C:\ASMTest.iam"
ThisDoc.Document.SaveAs(oFileNameHere, True)

Deur Justin,

I've been to busy to try your solution.

As soon as I find the time to proceed I will let you know if it works.
