Hi.

 

Have been searching the forum and not found a solution to my problem.

Found one that had the same problem as me but the solution dont work for me.

Can have up to 30 diffrent parts.(alot of diffrent representation views to make)

 

http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/title-block-of-sheet-2-issue/m-p/5490943#M53885

 

Is there another way to solve it? Using iLogic or so?

You could change your title block to pull the information from some Custom iProperties in the drawing.  Then have an iLogic rule that will pull the properties from the model on Sheet 1 and assign them to the Custom iProperties in the drawing, which will then show up on all sheets.

Hi.

 

Sorry for the late reply. 

Good idea. I only have one problem with that. 

Dont know how to write the iLogic code to do that.

Know how to create custom iProperties but thats about it.

Need code to assign properties for 

-Part Number

-Mass

-Title

-Scale

Why not just use prompted entries and have iLogic pull and populate information from the first view on the first sheet?

 

Or do you need the information within all of the parts for some reason that you would want to have them as custom properties?

Hi.

i had that for the scale before. Got the scale from the first view of sheet 1.

but when i create sheet 2 and placed a view there, then sheet 2 scale in the titleblock gets its scale from the first view in sheet 2, not sheet 1.

Same thing with mass. Perhaps my iLogic code needs a bit tweeking.

 

So for now i have iLogic pull the iProperties from the first view and assign it to the drawings iProperies. but for scale and mass i create a custom iProperty.

it works but i guess there is a more effective and simple way.

Won't pulling the mass and scale from the model/sheet properties accompish what you need, rather than the drawing properties?
