iLogic auto balloon in drawing

[FeelGoodGirl]

hi

I am trying to automate drawings. I work with Inventor 2023.

The next step is to add the balloons via iLogic. I did find with the snippet how to add the balloon. Only now the leader is stuck at the bottom of the model in the corner. I do not find this clear. However, I cannot manage to move this point. Could someone help me?

Dim Sheet_1 = ThisDrawing.Sheets.ItemByName("Sheet:1") 
Dim VIEW1 = Sheet_1.DrawingViews.ItemByName("VIEW1") 
Dim ptCyl = VIEW1.SheetPoint(-0.1, 0.5) 
Dim balloon1 = Sheet_1.Balloons.Add("Part2 balloon", {ptCyl }, VIEW1.GetIntent("Part2:1", "Part2_Edge0"))

Hi,

The optional parameter of the GetIntent function is Intent. This is the place where the balloon’s anchor point (arrow) will be attached. Add something like this to your code:

edge1 = WIDOK3.GetIntent("Part2:1", "Part2_Edge0",PointIntentEnum.kMidPointIntent)
Dim balloon1 = Sheet_1.Balloons.Add("Part2 balloon", {ptCyl }, edge1)

lub po prostu

Dim balloon1 = Sheet_1.Balloons.Add("Part2 balloon", {ptCyl }, WIDOK3.GetIntent("Part2:1", "Part2_Edge0",PointIntentEnum.kMidPointIntent))

IManagedDrawingView.GetIntent
