Deleting Axis Systems using Knowledgeware

Deleting Axis Systems using Knowledgeware

Deleting Axis Systems using Knowledgeware

(OP)
I was wondering if there is a way to delete axis systems/geometry using a rule in knowledge advisor. I would want to control which axis system is deleted by having it linked to a multiple value string parameter. Thanks

RE: Deleting Axis Systems using Knowledgeware

You can not delete specific geometry using a rule however, you could use a reaction to multi value string parameter to fire an action. The action is a VB script which populates a list of axis systems and deletes the geometry if it exists.

I found that solution, but get a click ok to terminate everytime I create the reaction. Not sure on which options to use in the reaction. I tried owner for source type then selected beforupdate for available events and wrote the code with knowledgeware action......

if string == ....
{
`VB Script.1`.Run
}

Not sure if this is the correct way to approach it. I have a Lenovo think pad W520 so the hardware that im using shouldnt be a factor.

RE: Deleting Axis Systems using Knowledgeware

The reaction should fire on value change. Change the source type to Selection. In your multi parameter use a blank as the first option then, A, B, C,... When the user toggles the multi parameter the reaction will fire your vb script. This is an efficient way instead of a rule as the rule is evaluated on every update.
