Material and appearance illogic to copy to custom iproperty

[GKPByDesign]

Hey I need some code created please. I will need to use an event trigger on saving the file or when the form is saved or both. I want the selected value for the standard property for both material and appearance to copy to a custom iproperty using illogic. So say the material is steel, then I want this value to be copied to a custom iproperty called gkp_Assembly_Material. Can this be done ? And I want the same for appearance into gkp_Assembly_Apearance. Can someone help please, I’m stuck ! This would neeed to work for ipt and iam files

Hi @GKPByDesign , 

Take part file as example, here is the iLogic code: 

iProperties.Value("Custom", "gkp_Assembly_Apearance") = ThisDoc.Document.activeappearance.displayname
iProperties.Value("Custom", "gkp_Assembly_Material") = ThisDoc.Document.activematerial.displayname

how do I get this to work within an assembly?

It's different in assembly since every part occurrence has its own appearance and material, or all of them can be controlled in customize design view representations, I am not sure what you are looking to get in your case for assembly document.
