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?

My model is up in the top right of the planes. I cannot figure out why my origin planes are oversized like this. I have went through the browser and checked all the parts to see if something is out there, nothing. I have set auto-resize on origin planes and yet these are large.

see attached image. The Origin Work Planes of my assembly, and some of the origin work planes in sub-assemblies have lost their names. No longer can I see XY Plane / XZ Plane / YZ Plane - all I see is a little red dot when I hover over where the name used to be. ??

They are all gone in my parts and assemblies. Only are they visible in the browser when I open a particular part or assembly of the parent. Need them for constraints .

Is there a way using ilogic,that when you select/highlight a part within an assembly and run the code that it will turn on the Origin planes only and also turn turn them off ?

I'm assembling parts and one of the parts is in my Inventor Library. When I try to make a plane visible it won't let me. I can constrain to the plane , I just can't make it visible.

This subject have been around since version 2008.
1- I want to be able to insert an ipart ( only sketch) into an assembly and run frame generator.
2- If I have to change the component in the assembly I want to be able to click the ipart table with the right button of the mouse and choose "change component".

I know how to get the "work features" to show up in the assembly however, I would like to to be able to utilize the UCS if possible. When I try to use the iPart Author to select the Work Features the UCS doesn't show up.

I cannot select origin to constrain sketch with dimension to origin?
I selected Sketch,
expanded origin,
selected mywork plan (xy)
drew rectangle,
input dims,
right click for marking menu,
selected dimensions,
Origin is yellow,
cannot select it and then edge of rect to set dim that will center sketch on origin? Just like the videos show, but cannot select origin>

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.

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?

Is it possible to export all expand children from the model data in the BOM to excel.
I want to see all the parts in the assy so i can see in excel which parts belong to the assy.
I can copy and past but that is not what i want.

I just finish the installation of Inventor 2013 SP 2 and I have some bugs... a lot of line is not visible in my .idw !
is on a derived part (mirror) ! the other point is the center gravity is not true in the derived part, seems have some problems on that version...

I can't see them until I put the cursor over them. Enclosed is a jpg of the problem. Ram for Inventor process is at 700-800,000 k-bytes. My graphics card is a Nvidia Quadro FX 580.

I have an assembly consisting of 4 sub-assemblies. Item 4 is a mount plate c/w M16 fasteners.I would like the fasteners to display as sub-parts under item 4 (24520020s) as 4.1, 4.2, etc because they are also purchasable separately.
I do not want to display the mount plate (03241389s) because it's not purchasable separately.
When I expand item 4 in the parts list it automatically turns visibility off for item 4 (24520020s), and only shows the children (0231....s).I would like to display item 4 & the fasteners only. Quite simple to turn off visibility of 03241389s, but cannot get the parent and child parts to display at the same time.

I noticed that relative coordinates are not working in UCS Origin in Autocad 2013.
I used to create an UCS according to a mesh of coordinates (North/East). To do that I first aligned the UCS to the North axis and point the origin to known coordinates (this part is working). Then I created a new UCS using relative coordinates, like "non @ -286200,-7485500".
This relative coordinates entry are not working anymore in this version of Autocad (2013).

I have a drawing that is displaying the origin with XYZ and the drawing seems dimmed. It also is running very slow. I feel like I've gotten into an editing mode and was unaware. I've tried chanding views and UCS. When I open other drawings things are normal and faster.

When printing to our Xerox work center 35, I choose 11x17, extents, fit to paper, landscape. The preview shows the entire template page just as i want it. The printout has the left side of template shifted over to the right approx 5.5 inches. It is as if i changed the plot offset 5.5 inches.

I have created a pipe network and am now creating an alignment and profile from that network. I follow the steps outlined in help file and when I get to "Select profile view origin" C3D freezes. I can invoke the Task Manager and choose to end C3D, then cancel when prompted to save file and control is returned. But no profile is created. Is it a video card issue maybe?
Seems like it is creating the alignment but freezes before the profile is created - In Prospector there are aligments in the misc category from multiple tries but no profiles associated with them. When it occurs I can't zoom or pan in C3D but I can switch to another app.

I have 2 problems:
1. created a turbine whose blades are made from some planes that I applied thicken offset command. I applied circular pattern to multiply the blade around center point but i get too many planes and i must to make invisible each one. How can i make invisible all planes in the same time.
2. After i make them invisibile i exit from that part but when i start that part again or when i place it in an assembly all planes are visible. What should i do to make them invisible for ever.

I just installed inventor. When I begin a part there is no display of the planes, only the corner indicators show up when I hover over a plane. Also, when a part is created, only the edges show up when I hover over them.

In a part file is it possible to find the adaptive workplanes used to create extrusion1. And then find if the two workplanes are at an angle with respect to the origin planes.
Have been looking for a while but it seems hard to find information on workplanes

I've created Custom properties, parameters, to get the outside measure of the parts and it works fine until we create and leave activated a work plane outside the part so it measures not until the end of the part but until the plane.

Isn't this an important part of sketches? Why would I not be able to project a work plane.
Cannot project any w-planes whether default or created in inv2013.

Is there a way to insert a part that would be grounded or flush constrained on one or two planes only (automatically) and not all three? For example; you'd insert the part and you'd pick the two planes that you want to be flush constrained but the 3rd plane you'd constrain yourself.

I want to create a solid using VB and loft definition.
I creat each time different planes that have a constant distance in x dimension and a steady rotation each time φ (deg).
On each each plane i sketch the same profile and that is happened for 360 deg.
The problem is that Loft is not made because a line of the profile must follow a line tragectory and all other points must follow a circular tragectory. Also, there is a problem from 180 deg to 360 because there is intersection of profiles.
The result must be a solid similar to snail shell but all the same solid, as a cylindar whith a half sphere in the bottom.

In my assembly I've set up angle constraints between 2 Plane's of 2 parts (min: 40 deg max: 160 deg). If I move the parts slowly the angle constraints holds but if I swing it hard sometimes it flips and gets out of the angle constraint.
