Unsupress machinings in weld assembly

[mowag]

Hi all,

I've managed to suppress machinings in a weld assembly.  How do i unsupress these features again ??

Our milling machine operator wants a simpliefied part of the assembly with AND without the machinings(supressed). It's the intention to make 2 simplified parts of the weld assy ( one with and one without the machinings). 

            if (_inventordataService.oInvDoc.DocumentType == DocumentTypeEnum.kAssemblyDocumentObject)
            {
                if (_inventordataService.oInvDoc.SubType == CLSID_InventorWeldAssembly_RegGUID )
                {
                    Inventor.CommandManager cm = _inventordataService.invApp.CommandManager;
                    ControlDefinitions cds = cm.ControlDefinitions;

                    BrowserPane oPane = _inventordataService.oInvDoc.BrowserPanes["AmBrowserArrangement"];
                    foreach (BrowserNode oWNode in oPane.TopNode.BrowserNodes)
                    {
                        if (oWNode.BrowserNodeDefinition.Label == "Machining")
                        {
                            foreach (BrowserNode oMNode in oWNode.BrowserNodes)
                            {
                                oMNode.DoSelect();
                                _inventordataService.invApp.SilentOperation = true;
                                cds["AssemblySuppressFeatureCtxCmd"].Execute2(true);
                                _inventordataService.invApp.SilentOperation = false; 
                            }
                        }
                    }

                }

Kind Regards

Machinings are just features that you can suppress or un suppress. Your code could look something like this:

if (_inventordataService.oInvDoc.DocumentType != DocumentTypeEnum.kAssemblyDocumentObject) return;
if (_inventordataService.oInvDoc.SubType != CLSID_InventorWeldAssembly_RegGUID) return;

AssemblyDocument doc = _inventordataService.oInvDoc as AssemblyDocument;

foreach (PartFeature item in doc.ComponentDefinition.Features)
{
    item.Suppressed = false;
}

Hi,

Thank you for pointing me to that 'route' !

I changed ExtrudeFeature to PartFeature, so i can supress and unsupress all features in one go ! 

The 'command' route isn't the way to go then ( no AssemblyUnSuppressFeatureCtxCmd method ) ?

Anyways thanks alot !!

                    foreach (PartFeature item in doc.ComponentDefinition.Features)
                    {
                        item.Suppressed = true;
                    }

Kind Regards

Johan

I'am new to the forum and i accidentely pressed the wrong 'accept as solution button'. Now it looks like is solved this too, which i haven't. Can this be undone ?

The ExtrudeFeature was a typo. As you mentioned it should be PartFeature. I have updated the original post.
