Using iPropWiz

Configuration EditorProperty EditorLists

 Properties

A configuration contains a set of properties for each Inventor document type. You add the properties you want your users to see, and optionally provide a property name alias, limit the number of characters in a text property value, add a list, property expression or property extraction rule to each property make it easy to enter a valid value. If you mark a property as required, iPropWiz provides a number of tools to help ensure a value is entered. The grid provides detailed feedback on the state, rules, and settings for each property.

 Options

Configuration behavior is customized in the tabbed Options area of the Configuration editor. You set configuration specific options for capitalizing property values, allowing users to edit property expressions, prompting for required values, and other rules that determine how users interact with properties in the Property Editor.

 Physical Properties

Each configuration has rules to control the export and formatting of physical properties such as model extents or mass. Exported physical properties can be conditionally formatted, depending on their current value. Part model extents can be reported with respect to the model's coordinate system, its principal axes, or a user defined coordinate system (UCS). A variety of sheet metal flat pattern properties can also be exported, including extents and 'through cut' loop lengths.

 Layout

Users can control the columns visible in the grid, and they can dock the Property Editor (PE) in the Inventor window or even place it on a second monitor. For basic property entry the PE can be reduced in width, and quickly expanded to expose the full set of controls. You can quickly toggle the PE between active and disabled states.

 Selection

When active, the PE automatically updates to display the properties of the active document, or selected document(s) in an assembly or drawing. Selections can be made in the Inventor graphics window, or by using the document browser in the Property Editor (PE). The document browser displays referenced documents in the active document and provides tools to filter and organize documents, and make common selections such as 'All sheet metal parts'. When multiple document are selected, properties with different values are noted in the property grid.

 Property Expressions

If permitted by the current configuration settings, users may be able to create or edit property expressions for some properties. The Expression Editor provides drag and drop expression editing and a preview of the expression value in the current document.

 Creating lists

You can create lists for both numeric and text properties. A list can be made available to all configurations, or be local to a specific configuration. Simple lists can display a description for each value, and Tree lists enable you to organize large lists in an easy to browse structure. All lists feature drag and drop editing, and you can import data for any list from an Excel spreadsheet.

 Multi-property lists

An iPropWiz exclusive, multi-property lists enable users to set values for multiple properties with a single selection. The above image shows the structure of a multi-property text list. The Primary field is assigned to one property, and the two secondary fields (Spec1 and Spec2) are assigned to other properties. A user would select a value from the primary field for the assigned property, the other properties are assigned values from the same row in the multi-property list. The secondary field items can either be a fixed value (e.g. CTG-50-0), or a simple text or tree list (e.g. [*Finish]). Other multi-property lists include ones that get their primary value automatically, from the material applied to a part, or the value of a parameter in a model document.

 Using lists

In the Property Editor, the user can select a value from the assigned list. The property can optionally be marked as List Only, ensuring the property value must come from the list.
