25 iLogic Routines to Speed Up Drawing Creation
Creating engineering drawings can sometimes seem tedious, but drawings are one of the most important parts of any design. In fact, your drawing is the contract with the manufacturer, an agreement that contains all the specifications and key dimensions that your product will be manufactured to. Why not automate workflows, making drawings easier and faster... Continue Reading →
iLogic: Export Flat Patterns of iPart Members to DXF
By Bhavik Suthar I have written an iLogic utility to export the flat patterns of all the members of an iPart to DXF. The code automates the process of creating DXF flat patterns, saving the DXF with the instance member name as the file name in the same location as the original iPart. Here is... Continue Reading →

2020 Milestones – Thank you
2020 could reasonably be described as an awful year. But there were a few small highlights. This year our site's traffic increased exponentially, we had our first month with over 12 000 views and reached a milestone of 100 000 views in 2020. Considering the content is rather niche (mainly iLogic), I think this is... Continue Reading →
iLogic – File Open Timer
I thought I’d share an update to an old timer that I wrote a few years back, it was designed to show the difference between opening a file saved on a network drive, versus one stored locally. The original idea, being that using Vault will give a user a much better experience when opening large... Continue Reading →
