ILogic rule to suppress detail views in drawing

Anonymous

Is there a rule that can suppress detail views in drawing if it cannot attach to the view? We have a template that will make the part, run calculations, and scale each view when opening the drawing but it would be helpful if we could suppress the views that are not needed. Thank you for any help you might be able to give.

Hello jddickson,

 

I will be asking the forum moderator to move this post into the Inventor Customization forum where these questions are better suited for ILogic questions.

 

Regards,

 

Don

I’m guessing that no one can help on this problem? We found a workaround that kind of works but not the way that I would like. We have code in the drawing that will look inside the part and if that extrusion is suppressed then it will suppress the detail view. The problem with this is that when you change the name of the detail view the code doesn’t work anymore. It would be a lot nicer if we could just suppress detached detail views with a little code. I would appreciate any help you might be able to give.

You could try examining the corresponding browser node icon state. Or examing the API/object model and come up with some other test, and try that out.
