Making An .ipt Rule Run From An .iam

[ASchlaack]

I need a way to fire rule "Length" in part "Angle" when there is a parameter change in my assembly. How can I do this?

You have two options depending on how your rules are written in the part.

In your assembly you can have a rule that responds to a parameter change. That rule can then change the part parameter  or run a rule. If the rule in the part is an internal rule written using the parameter name then it will automatically respond to a parameter change in the part. If the rule must be explicitly run then that can be done to.

From the assembly:

Run rule in subcomponent:

iLogicVb.RunRule("Angle", "Length")

Modify a parameter

Parameter("Angle", "length") = 2.0 in

Thank you, I used the first rule and it worked great!
