Hi, i was hoping someone can help me.
Is it possible using iLogic to switch two params between driven and undriven dimensions.
I basically have an object in the middle of a room and i want to be able to choose an offset distance from a wall, based on which side of the room its on. Ie left or right.
So in a form the user would click 'left side of room' and then input the offset from the left wall or vise versa.
See attched image.
For example:
if SWITCHDIRVENDIMENSION = True Then
d2 = Not driven
d3 = Driven dimension
if SWITCHDIRVENDIMENSION = False Then
d2 = Driven dimension
d3 = Not driven
I have a addin for that. Let me have a look to share this ....

Arthur Knoors

Or even with a pick-command:
Dim p As PartDocument = ThisDoc.Document
Dim pc As PartComponentDefinition = p.ComponentDefinition
Dim ps As PlanarSketch = pc.Sketches.Item(1)
Dim s As SelectSet = p.SelectSet
Dim skd1 As DimensionConstraint
Dim skd2 As DimensionConstraint
skd1 = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(SelectionFilterEnum.kSketchDimConstraintFilter, "PICK FIRST ""DRIVEN"" DIMENSION TO SWITCH!")
Do While skd1.Driven = False
MsgBox ("THIS DIMENSION IS NOT DRIVEN")
skd1 = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(SelectionFilterEnum.kSketchDimConstraintFilter, "PICK FIRST ""DRIVEN"" DIMENSION TO SWITCH!")
Loop
skd2 = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(SelectionFilterEnum.kSketchDimConstraintFilter, "PICK FIRST ""DRIVE"" DIMENSION TO SWITCH!")
Do While skd2.Driven = True
MsgBox ("THIS DIMENSION DOES NOT DRIVE")
skd2 = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(SelectionFilterEnum.kSketchDimConstraintFilter, "PICK FIRST ""DRIVE"" DIMENSION TO SWITCH!")
Loop
Try
If skd1.Driven = True Then
skd2.Driven = True
skd1.Driven = False
Else If skd2.Driven = True Then
skd1.Driven = True
skd2.Driven = False
End If
Catch
MsgBox("NOT POSSIBLE TO SWITCH!")
End Try
