iLogic rule tips

Good afternoon.

 

Currently i'm struggling with iLogic. My part, a table driven is placed inside an assembly, which contains also a DIN Flange. This Flange should change according to the table driven part.

 

I've solved it like this at the moment:

 

If Component.IsActive("Inletheader-25 - 0.63-0.8(_FS)25:1") = True

	Components.ContentCenterLanguage = "en-US"
	Dim DIN_2633_Welding_Nec = Components.AddContentCenterPart("DIN 2633 Welding Neck Flange Type C Series 1 (ISO) - PN 16 100 x 114.3:1",
                                                           "Tube & Pipe:Fittings:Flanges",
                                                           "DIN 2633 Welding Neck Flange Type C Series 1 (ISO) - PN 16",
                                                           "80 x 88.9",
                                                           DIN_2633_Welding_NecPos)

						
						If Component.IsActive("DIN 2633 Welding Neck Flange Type C Series 1 (ISO) - PN 16 100 x 114.3:1") = True

			'	 Component.IsActive("Inletheader-25 - 0.63-0.8(_FS)25:1")	
						Components.Delete("DIN 2633 Welding Neck Flange Type C Series 1 (ISO) - PN 16 100 x 114.3:1")
						Constraint.IsActive("Insert:1") = False

						End If 
End If 

 I guess there is a better and smarter way, can someone help me?

Unfortunately I cannot open the 2021 files as I am  on 2020.

Are you using tube and pipe or just plain fittings in the assembly environment?

Are you trying to lock all fitting sizes to the first fitting? Are you adding the fittings by ilogic also or just looking to change the sizes easier?

 

You could target the ND column which is common across fittings to change the Nominal Diameter of given occurrences once they are placed. In this way you just need to determine which fittings you want to change by using a filter occurance name to search criteria. 

 

An example of changing existing parts to another member is given here.

Can you provide more information by pictures or a workflow explanation?
