A:

Step-by-Step Breakdown

  • Select the part in the drawing browser
  • Inventor’s API does not directly expose browser selection events
  • Loop through the drawing view and find the part by name or reference
  • Use the drawing view’s DrawingCurves collection to find all edges associated with the part
  • Filter by DrawingCurveTypeEnum.kEdgeDrawingCurve
  • Create or get the target layer using Layers.Add
  • Assign each edge’s Layer property to the new layer

Placer AI doesn’t offer typical audio/AI tool analytics, but for reporting and analytics it gives foot traffic and location insights like visit trends over time, audience demographics, trade-area maps, dwell times, competitive benchmarking, and custom reports you can filter by store/location/period. You can also export data or use its API for internal dashboards or to combine with other BI tools for deeper analysis.
