iLogic insert ACAD to 3d sketch

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have iLogic code that will insert a AutoCAD drawing file (.dwg) into a 3D sketch? The drawing being imported has wires that extend into 3 dimensions. I was able to bring the drawing in as a 2D sketch using the Translator, but I cannot seem to figure out a way to bring it into the 3D sketch. Thank you!

Hi @bhavik4244 

I’ve looked at that post and tried modifying the planar sketch to Sketch3D and using an add Sketch3D function instead of adding the 2D sketch, however that code results in an error and an import of AutoCAD file as a drawing. Do you have any suggestions? I can paste the code I’ve been running that has that result if it would be helpful.

Hi @bhavik4244,

This is the error message I'm receiving:

Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Inventor.PartDocument'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{29F0D463-C114-11D2-B77F-0060B0F159EF}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).

And this is the text under the "More Info" tab:

System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Inventor.PartDocument'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{29F0D463-C114-11D2-B77F-0060B0F159EF}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
