AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 IPart Does Not Work In 2013

May 6, 2012

Got a rather large ipart that I haver been using in 2013.  When I try to check this in, Inventor runs through the "analyzing members" thingy and fails about the 8000 member mark.  Actually get a CER.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 Modify IPart From IAssembly

May 22, 2013

I am looking for a way to change the parameters of a part that is within an iAssembly. Basically we have tubing with flanges on the end and wish to have an easy way to model varying lengths. I essentially need to be able to have the upper level iAssembly control the flange spacing and cut the tube to length based on the users selection. Due to BOM setup these parts must be seperate .ipt in a larger .iam

AutoCAD Inventor :: Work Plane Based On Pattern Controlled By IPart Table - Cannot Build?

Apr 4, 2013

I have an ipart that will has the length and a quantity of patterned features controlled by a table.  I've created a work plane that I'll be using when I take this part into an iassembly.  The problem is that the features I used to create this work plane (midplane between two parallel planes) do not exist in (2) of the (3) members...so it gives me an error message.  I've tried adding the work plane to the table, but 'exclude' isn't a drop-down (and typing it in doesn't work). How to make the work plane "inactive" for those particular members?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 IPart / IAssembly In Drawing Causes Crash

May 15, 2013

I'm having an issue with Inventor crashing every time I attempt to follow this exact procedure:

1.  I have a drawing open with an iAssembly or iPart in it.

2.  I edit a view by double-clicking the view, opening the 'Drawing View' dialog box.

3.  I open the 'Model State' tab.

4.  In the 'iAssembly/iPart Member' menu box, I select a different member.

Now, it may or may not open the 'Save' dialog box.  If it does, then I click 'OK' and poof, Inventor crashes without fail, asking to send in a crash report.

The same thing happens if I start a brand new drawing and attempt to follow the same procedure while inserting a Base view.

Now, I know for a fact that the not all of the drivers are not up to date on my computer, I am not using a recommended graphics card, and I am using SP1.1, not SP2.  I have notified my IT guy about this, but he has yet to get back to me.  I don't now if/when everything on my computer will be updated.  I do not have admin rights to my computer.

In the mean time, Inventor has become essentially useless for me until this issue has been resolved.  how I can get these drawings to start working?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Visible Origin Planes In IPart Children?

Apr 8, 2013

We are just in the process of upgrading to Inventor 2013.  While migrating our iParts, the origin work planes from the part part suddenly appear in some of the children.  In the browser they show up under the iPart parent entry and will have names such as "YZ Plane_1".  The visibility of all of the origin work features in the parent are turned off.  In the children I can right click on these work planes but there is no option to turn off their visibility.  And of course I can't even turn off general categories of object visibility in the children because that function is greyed out.

Is this behavior normal/new in IV 2013?  Is there anyway I can turn off these origin planes in the iPart children?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Emboss For Engraving Can't Work - 2012?

Oct 2, 2012

The subject basically says it all. I am trying to emboss two words onto a solid model. Unfortunately it keeps failing. I am copying this model off of U-Tube models "LED LAMP"

How to use emboss feature and engrave the words "LED LAMP" On the centre of the top of my solid model part. Top View reads vertically going up the way.

save it and send it back or explain why it keeps failing.

edit part 8. Then start the Emboss process. 1/64 = Depth. Flat White colour. Following the video on youtube they use engrave from face then reverse the direction the arrow points towards the model. Then OK. That's the way I am showed  it and I can't get it to engrave.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - Work Point In DXF Of Sheet Metal Part

Jul 16, 2012

We have a custom-made sheet metal punch consisting of a 5x5 matrix of 1/8" holes. We export flat patterns from Inventor as DXFs.

We normally make DXFs by creating a view of the flat pattern on a blank IDW template (no border, no title block, nothing) and export that view as a DXF. This lets us orient the view at will, unlike right-clicking on the flat pattern in the browser and selecting Save Copy As.

When the sheet metal guy assigns tooling in his software, he needs to get each punch to "lock onto" the corresponding feature in the DXF. Normally this isn't a problem, but it has been with this gang punch. The center hole of the punch needs to lock onto the correct hole in the DXF, and it can't always seem to do it. I've sat alongside the guy as he does this, and in his software the centers of the circles show up as dots/points. But on this punch, there isn't necessarily a dot in the center of every circle, and it's possible that the center hole, which really needs the dot, won't have one.

I've come up with a workaround for this: a work point in the IPT. In the attached part, it's feature Tooling1. The sheet metal guy confirms that if I include the work point in the DXF as a point (in the AutoCAD sense), he can lock onto it. However, I find that if I generate a DXF from the flat-pattern IDW, the point is lost. If I generate an ACAD DWG from the IDW and save the DWG as a DXF, the point comes through in the DXF. But that's an extra step.

Is there a way to export directly from IDW to DXF and not lose the work point? Or is this as good as it gets?

For the sake of simplicity, the attached part has no bends. I realize that if I did, I'd have to re-create the points in the flat pattern, but that's another discussion.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Content Service Doesn't Work With New Profiles (2012)

Dec 12, 2011

I'm a computer tech in a school that uses Inventor 2012. After cloning the computers, if I log in using a profile that was there before, I can access the content service but when a student logs in, nothing happen when trying to access it. I looked for the .exe.config files in the Inventor bin directory but could not find anything related to the computer name. The structure is different in this version.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Save Files For 2012 In 2013?

Apr 24, 2012

Can you save files for 2012 in 2013?  I have the ability to upgrade to 2013 while others at my company are not able to, since they were not put on the subscription service.  If I upgrade will they still be able to open my files or can I back save to a previous version?  I know I can save it as different file type, like .iges or .step, then use feature recognition.  But I need them to have full editability to sketches and features.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Does Nvidia GTX 580 Work With GPU Accelerated Ray-tracing In 2013

May 25, 2012

I´m running Inventor 2013 under Windows 7 64-bit.

Nvidia GTX 680 did not work with GPU accelerated ray-tracing in Inventor 2013. I replaced it with a GTX 580 GPU card, exact same result. Either I´m just doing something wrong, or it plain does not work.

Are there any consumer grade GPU cards that work with the ray-tracing functionality in Inventor 2013?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Select Other Menu Doesn't Pop Up And Key Bindings Don't Work

Nov 6, 2013

I used Inventor 2010, but after a change of our Domain, I had some issues with export and mouse customization (one worked with IV running privileged, but the other didn't and vice versa). Reinstalation didnt solve the problem, so I hoped, that a newer version would solve it. Unfortunately the problems remained the same, but I could get it to work (running mouse software also privileged).

Now I noticed, that the 'select other' menu doesn't pop up, regardless of the delay choosen in the settings. Also some function keys don't work: F7, F8, and F9 don't show any reaction, while all other F-keys work.I'm using Inventor Professional 2013, 64 Bit (Build : 200, Release 2013 SP2 Update 2) from our Education Master Suite.
