Show a sketch inside a form (or something similar)

Hey guys,

 

I was just wondering if it is possible using iLogic to show a 2D sketch(from the same model) inside a form or similar?

 

So when you make changes to all the input parameters in the form to change the model, it shows them changing in the sketch changing below it?

 

or if anyone has any other suggestions that may work the same.

 

Thanks

 

Nathan

Hello

 

Afaik not within an iLogic form.

Maybe it is possible to run a rule that creates a new undocked view of the current document and enter sketch edit mode. Then the rule opens your form and every changed parameter value in the form will change visible your sketch, if the parameter is used in a sketch dimension. The form should be shown modal, so the user can only interact within. The Close button of the form should call another rule, closing the view, update the model and activate the view shown before start.

A sketch within the active document or any sketch.

You could use a preview of the thumbnail if this is what you expect!?
