Running Rules in Sequence

[harrisons22K9B]

Hello,

I am trying to figure out if I can have a message pop up after a form is okayed.

In the picture, I have a simple form with some Parameters that when the user clicks "Done", I would like the Pop up message on right to appear.

I know Event Triggers exist, but I would like the solution to be code based so the message does not pop up every time a "Model Parameter Change" occurs.

Thanks for the help.  And still new at coding, so Comments really help with understanding what is being said in programming language.

Hi @harrisons22K9B 

what version of Inventor are you running?

2022? 2023? 2024?

Hi @harrisons22K9B 

See the attached example file, but here are the steps as well:

• Create a rule that shows a message box and then edit your form.
• Set the form to use None as the Predefined Buttons setting

• Then locate your rule in the left pane and drag it into your form as shown. 
• Then set the On Click Action to be Close and then Run Rule

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis
