Solved: Re: How to send iProperties to all parts of Assembly and his Sub-Assemblies

Anonymous · ‎05-10-2018

The code below is sending some iproperties to the different parts of the assembly, now I have placed some sub-assemblies as well but the code is not taking in consideration the parts of those sub-assemblies to send the iproperties, can somebody help me to correct the code so it does that as well. basically to send the iproperties in the code to all parts in the assembly and to all the parts of the different sub-assemblies as well.

Thanks in advance

Here is the code:

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

Dim oAsmCompDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition
oAsmCompDef = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition
'Iterate through all Of the occurrences
Dim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrence
For Each oOccurrence In oAsmCompDef.Occurrences.AllReferencedOccurrences(oAsmCompDef)
Try
'write to component iprops
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Project", "Project") = iProperties.Value("Project", "Project")
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Project", "Creation Date") = iProperties.Value("Project", "Creation Date")
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Title") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Title")
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Company") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Company")
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Author") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Author")
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Custom", "AVT_NUMBER") = iProperties.Value("Custom", "AVT_NUMBER")
Catch 'catch errors
	MsgBox ("ERROR WHEN MAKING LABEL")
End Try
Next

If the component is an assembly the code selves need to be run again. Can you upload the complete code with the routine name so we can modify it for you...

Dim oAsmCompDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition
oAsmCompDef = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition
'Iterate through all Of the occurrences
Dim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrence
For Each oOccurrence In oAsmCompDef.Occurrences.AllLeafOccurrences
    Try
    'write to component iprops
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Project", "Project") = iProperties.Value("Project", "Project")
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Project", "Creation Date") = iProperties.Value("Project", "Creation Date")
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Title") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Title")
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Company") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Company")
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Summary", "Author") = iProperties.Value("Summary", "Author")
        iProperties.Value(oOccurrence, "Custom", "AVT_NUMBER") = iProperties.Value("Custom", "AVT_NUMBER")
    Catch 'catch errors
	MsgBox ("ERROR WHEN MAKING LABEL FOR:" & vblf & oOccurrence.Name)
    End Try
Next

I'll try to upload the model as soon as I can, I really appreciate all of your inputs

Anonymous · ‎06-21-2018

I got a more detailed code where everything is well passing from the model properties to his parts custom properties, sadly still not passing to the model sub-assemblies custom properties.

Could you please see how to make it work. Really appreciate your help.

sorry it took so long... I was doing other things,

Now I have a code that is passing the main assembly custom properties to the parts, but not to the sub-assembly custom properties,

Can you help me with this? thanks,
