I am trying to do so my animation stage is align center. The problem is that the width of my animation is 1900px and I want to align center and overflow-x:hidden.
I am trying to align the curtain wall with the edge of the concrete slab/face of wood framed wall (Core). I have tried to align and move however the whole wall moves as well as the edge of the slab. How I can move the Curtain wall leaving the other elements in place?
I am having difficulty aligning the profile for a sweep feature. I need the profile to be normal to the path, but aligned vertically. In other words, the rectangular profile should remain "plumb" along the entire sweep. Is there a simple way to do this?
I have shared the sample files, trying to use the profile in two different ways, through Dropbox (they are too large to upload). I am using Inventor 2013.
How to align a model to the origin, and NONE of them seem to be correct. I am using Inventor 2013. I tried the move body command, however there is no part of the dialog box that lets me choose a face or plane to align to.
What to do when you import a model that is not aligned to the origin?
I am detailing a drawing with typical hole dimensions on a piece of steel angle. The drawing is setup such that the fabricator will have two options for each end of the steel angle. I have created two parts with the two options per end and have placed them outside of the page for reference.
I would like to reference each end of each piece, so that there are four pairs of views on the page (the two legs of the angle at each of the four ends), aligned in a grid. I have determined the best way to do this is with detail views. (Using breaks causes the break sign to appear huge, given the large gap I want between views. Using cropped views does not make it obvious that each end is a cutaway.)
My issue now is aligning the eight views. I know of the align options (horizontal, vertical, and in position), but they align to the "origin" of each detail, which is the center. With the angles being the same size, this works fine horizontally, but vertically, the pieces will never line up exactly, which is crucial to at least lining up the two legs of a single angle. The best I seem to be able to do is get the detail sizes as close to exact as possible so the centers come close to lining up. Even creating a projected view from a detail treats the cutaway end as part of the geometry, making it look a bit ridiculous.
way to precisely line up the views? I have done extensive searching and am confident that there is no inherent way to align based on a point or edge (seems like a deficiency on Autodesk's part), but is there a way to move the origin of a detail or something like that?
I want to add parts to an assembly and align them with the assembly ucs. The parts have a ucs placed on the with the correct orientation. The idea is to have all the parts in an assembly with the correct side up and aligned the correct way for router cutting.
Below is the code I have tried without success.
Dim oAssm As Inventor.AssemblyDocument Dim oOcc As Inventor.ComponentOccurrence Dim oMatrix As Inventor.Matrix ' Open an assembly template oAssm = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(oTDir.TemplateDir & "Standard.iam") ' Add the part to the assembly
I have an i Assembly with 7 distinct members. I have a parts list displayed next to each member. I had no problem getting the views to align, but am running into a wall with getting the Parts Lists aligned (other than just eyeballing it).
Occasionally paragraph allignment works opposite for left & right align, usually on Illustrator documents with Russian type.
In additon on center align text I set my cursor to input a period at the end of a sentence, and the period instead gets added to the beginning.
In character palette language is set to English USA, this is point text.
I created a new point text and this is happening, if I paste text from another document alignment works fine, font is Arial black but happens with all fonts.
how to align an object 90 degrees relative to the ground.Also how can draw a 350x350mm rectangle without using the dimension tool to check the size of the rectangle every time I resize it?
My part is at an arbitrary angle relative to one of the planes and i cannot align the view in a drawing to be horizontal.I try to make a view, in the part file, in which the model will be horizontal, but there isn't any precise input for views.
I used the Look At tool to look at one face and all i need now is to rotate the view 90 degrees round one axis, but when i touch the line of the compass in the Constrained Orbit command the view jumps back to some position.
We got a 3d printer and I've been doing a lot of basic designs, right now Im having an issue with trying to figure out how to cut a notch (if that is even the correct wording) in the edge of a plate.
I remember that you used to be able to specifically pick out individual cut edges to project to a 2D sketch. Maybe it was 2010? However, I come across this issue again and again since the new 2011 and now 2012 where I must project all cut edges. I can no longer figure out how to just project the ones I want. This can be every frustrating when dealing with complex shapes. Is this no longer possible?

I use vb.net draw a cube frame (just point and add edge to link points) in 3dsketch. But at the corner, I got only one edge, the others are filled that is a arc is inserted between the 2nd & 3rd edge to the corner point. There is no second edge is extended to that point.
Just wondering why I got the result. There is no fillet command in my code.
I am having trouble with a part that I am working on. Trying to trim to the tangent edge. I cant post the part that I am actually using, but here is an example of a similar problem. In the attached file, open the "Negative Part.ipt". The sketch 2 contains a line (unconstrained). I need this line to be tangent with the curve below it.
I can project the edge of the curve to my sketch plane, but not the tangent of the radius.
I am not able to dimension to a circle edge when adding a sketch to existing feature of part. It works fine when it is the first sketch of the part file, but not when it is a child sketch. I've attached images of both situations. This has been verified on two machines, one is Inventor 2013, the other is Inventor Pro 2013, SP 1.1. The feature that I am trying to sketch on is the face of a contour roll.
In Autodesk Inventor 2013. I have a simple cylinder extrusion with a rectangle attached to the cylinder. Drawing file attached(extrusion 1). Whenever I apply a chamfer to one of the straight edges, Inventor generates negative taper on the cylinder wall (if you zoom in with a window, you can clearly see that their are two lines on the cylinder wall where the chamfer edges was applied).
Is there anyway to prevent this from happening? This gives me all sorts of problem in my CAM software because the tool is trying to machine in an area it cannot get to.
As a work around I have to create a new part file with a small gap between the cylinder and the chamfered edges. This keeps the cylinder edges nice and straight with no taper. The work around is attached as well. Since the tool can't go that far into the corner given the radius of the tool, the gap has no affect on me generating code. I have tried many different ways on creating this part with chamfers with no luck. Once the chamfer is generated, it should match the profile of the cylinder.
I'm wondering if there is any way to chamfer a set length along an edge (similar to what can be done with flanges in sheet metal mode), as opposed to the entire length of an edge.
I would like to radius the edge of a block for about 1" along a 3" edge. In Solid-doesn't-Works I would select an eddge to radius and then would edit it pulling one end of the line to radius back to the desired length of the radius.Here I find no option to edit the edge, I have also tried splitting the edge but I can't seem to make that feature work. Is there a way to do this short of creating a work plane at one end of the edge and then creating a cut to a set depth?

i am new to inventor, but an alias user for many many years . Since alias and inventor do seem to communicate pretty well, i gave it a shot, since it has many advantages to use the 2 of them.
So, the simple question is: How do I duplicate and edge of a surface into a curve, from say, a imported wire file.
I cant find a way.....Looks so simple the interface and what it makes, that it ends up being difficult to me such simplicity.
I need to define a mate constraint with a workplane as EntityOne and a midpoint from an Edge as EntityTwo.
API-Help tells me valid objects are planar faces, linear edges, vertices, cylindrical faces, conical faces, spherical faces, revolved faces, work planes, work axes, and work points.
The Edge object gives me StartVertex and StopVertex, but what about the midpoint?
I have two cylinders that are at a right angle to each other and was wondering how to create a fin to "wrap" around the round edge and then intersect with the flat side of the other cylinder.
