iLogic Trigger

[Anonymous]

Hello all,

I have a strange problem that I hoped you could help me with.  I have a few assemblies setup that are controlled with a bunch of iLogic rules to modify all related parts when parameters are changed at the assembly level.  I also have an opening message that pops up when the assembly model is opened (After Open Document trigger) to tell people how to use the parameters to make modifications.

Now, when this assembly model is placed into a drawing I am getting random pop ups of the opening message when placing views of additional models in the same drawing.  If you open the drawing and try to place a base view of another model, Inventor stops to think for a minute or so before having the opening message of the iLogic controlled model pop up.  The only event trigger for this message is "After Open Document" and the model is not being opened; anyone know why it is being triggered in the drawing and/or how to make it stop?

Thanks,

Actually it is technically "opening" the model document from the drawing.

Put this in your rule in the part document...

' Stops drawing from calling rule
If ThisDoc.Document.DocumentType = 12290 Then
	' put all your code here
End If

When I insert this text into my document the message no longer pops up in the drawing, but also when the assembly is opened.  I believe 122290 is ".ipt" and 122291 is ".iam" (my message is at assembly level, not part); 122291 allows it to pop up in the assembly but also the drawing.  Not sure what the fix is.

Document Types. from DocumentTypeEnum Enumerator in Inventor APi Help:

Name	Value	Description
kAssemblyDocumentObject	12291	Assembly Document.
kDesignElementDocumentObject	12294	Design Element Document.
kDrawingDocumentObject	12292	Drawing Document.
kForeignModelDocumentObject	12295	Foreign Model Document.

It easier to read name DocumentTypeEnum.kDrawingDocumentObject than number 12292
