Inventor iLogic Fundamentals — Creating Process Automation and Configurations

The iLogic functionality within Autodesk Inventor enables designers and engineers to create rules that drive model geometry, parameters, and behavior, all from a user-friendly interface utilizing VB.NET code.

iLogic rules are created and organized using built-in snippets and other code statements to run functionality within a part’s file, assembly, or drawing. The scope of what can be achieved with iLogic is immense: complete model configurations can be created using rules that define the shape, size, suppression or unsuppression of features, material type, and more. iLogic can also be used for drawing layouts and assembly nomenclature. iLogic rules can be run internally and manually inside a file, externally from the file, or configurations can be driven from iLogic forms or triggers in the file.

iLogic’s core purpose and functionality is to provide a level of automation and intelligence...
