AutoCAD Inventor :: Any Sort Of Live Update Tool That Comes With 10 Series?
Jun 25, 2006
Is there any sort of "Live Update" tool that Comes w/ Inventor 10 series? I have been to the "downloads" page at Autodesk site for Inventor 10, and have already installed sp3a, and a couple of the hotfixes (1054780 & 1057155) - I was trying to follow the dates and hotfix numbers in an effort to bring my product completely up to date, but now Inventor does not seem to be working correctly - I suspect that I did something in the wrong order. How can I know that my product is completely up-to-date, and is it possible to get a sequential list of SP's and Hotfixes so I know what order I'm supposed to install? I have also tried "repair" from the installation disk, but after "gathering all required information", nothing happens.

I keep de-selecting Sort-By-Tool in the Tool Presets window, but everytime I restart Photoshop, the tools have been moved around to Adobe's "sort by tool" arrangement, and the sort-by-tool option has become Enabled Again by the Adobe gremlins!

I would like to animate a serie of objects I made with the blend tool in Illustrator. It is an object that transforms into another one, I am trying to put this into a small animation like a gif.
I have also Photshop but I know better Illustrator, so I tried to export each of these objects in separate jpg files
but couldnt find a way.

I want to build a connector library in Inventor. So I choose to start with the 8STA motorsport connectors.
I build the connector based on parameters and created an iPart. So far so good.

I made a change to my materials library. I changed the color (from dark grey to light grey) of one material. I then saved this back to my library.
Now, when I start a new part, I get a warning that the material does not match the library. So, rather than using the material in the part, I opened the template and updated the material to match the library. (Manage >Update Styles).
This is where the problems come into play. In the update styles dialog, if I compare materials against my custom materials and then compare it to my Favorites, it just a continuious circle. It is like the favorites are stored inside the part and do not get updated to match the custom materials library. (I thought the whole idea behind using a library was to get the information out of the parts).
Here is a short video showing what it does. [URL] .....
The only way I can get the favorites to match is to delete the favorite material, update the style and the add the favorite back in. That is a bunch of work. The problem I got with this is that there are thousands of parts that have been created that has this favorite in it. The only way to update these is to open each part (if I knew which one), delete the favorite, update the materials and then add the favorite back in.
I see the same thing in 2013 and 2014.

Okay, I use Photoshop frequently, and am quite familiar with the Pen tool. However, this time, when I tried to fill a closed path, the colour appeared on the OUTSIDE of the path. I've never seen it do that before, and it's proving persistent and annoying. I have no idea why it's done this, and therefore don't know how to fix it.

I finally downloaded Designer Pro 9 and installed the 64-bit version and, to my horror, realized it does not support Photoshop plugins. So I uninstalled the 64-bit version and installed the 32-bit version.
But now I find that the live-effects tool seems to be missing from the 32-bit version too!
I had thought the 64-bit version might be a bit more stable, but the old one was pretty stable. So now I'm wondering if I should plunk down money for the new version.
I'm pretty happy with the previous version, which oddly enough is called Xara Designer Pro X (go figure). So I'm going to ask for a possibly politically incorrect and certainly unvarnished opinion: How much of an improvement is the new version over the old?
I use it mostly for making graphics for websites or for making posters, leaflets, and such. I do not use it for website design.

I am trying to batch print a series of Inventor dwg's (2012) thru task scheduler.
However, if I try to select any files that have a "-" in the filename it get teh following error: "....... The above filename is invalid."
Filename example: XXXXXX-XXXX.dwg
I have tried files without the "-" and they appear to work just fine from the same folder.
Is Task Scheduler limited on characters? If so what are the limitations on filenames that Task Scheduler will work?

I have been unable to find any code to sort the BOM, there are lots of snippets to sort and modify the Parts list.
How to sort the Assembly BOM?
Sort parameters:
PARTS Only
"BOM Structure"
then by
Custom Parameter "TYPE"
Then By
Part Number
Then "Renumber" starting at 1

I've noticed that the Gradient Tool won't show up when inside a Live Paint group, which makes it difficult to edit gradients. Is it supposed to be like this?
It is still possible to edit the gradient using the Gradient Panel, but I prefer to use the Gradient Tool instead because of it's direct approach.
Also, when selecting multiple areas within a Live Paint group to fill with a gradient, I don't seem to be able to Alt+Drag with the Gradient Tool in order to fill each selection with it's own gradient. It always ends up with one gradient being applied across all of the selections.

I have an iLogic rule that populates the fields shown below in our title block. The DIM. Values are strings set with H,W,L values. This works well, but I have an additional need to sort these values in ascending order, so the smallest value is first followed by the next largest and finally the largest value. (4.000x5.000x14.000). I haven't had much luck finding any information about how this can be done. I did however come across some code here that someone else was using for a similar feature.
Dim sizes As New List (Of Decimal)sizes.Add(bH)sizes.Add(bW)sizes.Add(bL)sizes.Sort()D1 = sizes(1)D2 = sizes(2)D3 = sizes(3)
This is what I have been attempting, though it does not work. I get the following error "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index". I'm not sure if my list type is correct (Decimal), but no matter what I choose it fails. The (bH,bW,bL) are the actual block dimensions pulled from the .ipt file. Once sorted I want the values of each position (1),(2),(3) to be assigned to (D1),(D2),(D3) so I can place them in my title block in the correct order.

Im working on something just now but ran into a problem when a new sheet is added after one that is excluded from count.
What i need is to re sort the sheets in the browser so the excluded ones go to the end. Im thinking i would need to loop through the browser nodes somehow but the skills elude me.

I have got some ilogic code that i have patched together to sort my parts list in inventor which works great but it will not update all sheets at the same time as when we design we have multiple sheets with parts list on and the odd one without.
add to this code to update all sheets partlists and also recognise that some sheets will not have partslists on so this will need to skip.
below is code that is used to sort
Format:HTML Format Version:1.0 StartHTML: 165 EndHTML: 4558 StartFragment: 314 EndFragment: 4526 StartSelection: 314 EndSelection: 314
SyntaxEditor Code Snippet
Format:HTML Format Version:1.0 StartHTML: 165 EndHTML: 4558 StartFragment: 314 EndFragment: 4526 StartSelection: 314 EndSelection: 314

I need to sort the BOM (structured) while avoiding three parts. So I attempted manually locking the three parts in the BOM through the user interface and then running the following code
' Set a reference to the assembly document. ' This assumes an assembly document is active. Dim oDoc As AssemblyDocument oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
' Set a reference to the BOM Dim oBOM As BOM oBOM = oDoc.ComponentDefinition.BOM
' Make sure that the structured view is enabled. 'Set a reference to the "Structured" BOMView Dim oBOMView As BOMView oBOMView = oBOM.BOMViews.Item("Structured")
'The following line works correctly Call oBOMView.Sort("Part Number",True) 'Re-Number the BOM Call oBOMView.Renumber(3, 1) 'Re-Sort Items 'Call oBOMView.Sort("Item",True)
The above code is bits and pieces that I have combined from the internet. The only problem with it is that sort works fine on some files while on others it skips a few e.g. 1,2,5,6,7......
Is there any way we can sort the BOM while avoiding all the locked parts.

I want to use iLogic to:
1.Sort an assembly BOM by Part Number.
2. Renumber Items in the BOM as sorted.
3. Sort a drawing Parts list by item number.
The background to my problem is that i have an assembly which is working beautifully turning components on and off (suppressing/activating in LOD reps) as defined by iLogic rules (iLogic is awesome). The problem is whenever a part is turned on/activated again, it shows up at the bottom of the BOM and Parts list out of order (would be nice if parts went back in the list where they came from).

Is there any method to sort sketch blocks in a part file? All of our sketch blocks are numbered with a profile number. When we create a new multi-body assembly we will often derive 50-100 of them into the master file. It would be great if we could sort them by profile number.
The next best solution would be the ability to create sub-folders to place them in by type (sort of like assembly folders), but I'm pretty sure this isn't possible.

How do you sort(Resort) a hole table via code? The hole table does not appear to have a .Resort member.
I would think it would be oHoleTable.Resort.

I am going through our block library one block at a time (electrical, fire alarm, intercom, low voltage symbols). I have to scale most of them to be 1=1 rather than 10=1, change the default text style, and make sure I've got consistent sizes.
A problem I've noticed on our tool palette that I insert from is, some of the tool images are so small that you don't see what they are, you have to go by the name.
When / how is this image created? I've tried to zoom extents on the file it's self, save it, then use "update tool image" on the pallet.

I am wondering if it is possible to do a style update (or style update check) upon open of a drawing?
The example would be that I have stuff made from way back that the colors/dimension sytles ect dont match the current standard and upon opening a file where they are not current, it would either prompt to update immediatly OR update automatically with no prompting (preferred method).
I am doing a massive amount of updates from old files recently and to save myself 1 - 3 clicks per drawing would be wonderful.

On two occasions now since last software update, when I open Autocad LT 2013, my tool bars are all gone. I use a customized layout/workspace based off the original/classic layout option. When I change layout to drafting/annotation, toolbars for that layout appear, but when I switch back to my saved layout, all tool bars are still gone and I have to go through whole process of adding the ones I want again.

Having problems with the updated new file dialog and I'm not talking personal problems. I switched it to detail view and widened up the name column so I could see the whole name. I could actually live with that setup however the next time I opened the new file dialog all the columns returned to their default size and the sort also reverted.
Is it just me or does the new file dialog not remember any changes to it's layout?

The first thing I noticed was that I could not use the type tool to create 'live' text on a layer. With the type tool selected I get the following error message when clicking to begin typing:
"Could not complete your request because of a programme error."
I quit Photoshop then attempted to launch the application by opening the file. The application opened but the file wouldn't, giving the same error message.
I quite Photoshop again and relaunched the application from the Dock. The applicatiuion opens fine but displays the same error message (before I have attempted to open a file).
With a file open I checked the type palette, where the dafault typeface is shown as Myriad Pro, but the default settings are:
Type size: 1pt
Linefeed (leading): 1pt
Kerning: 1
Tracking 1
Type height: 0%
Type width: 0%
Baseline shift: 0
Colour: black
Language: multiple
Type quality: none
Some odd settings there. The type tool bar (at the top of my display) has blank fields. Typing desired values into any of these fields doesn’t resolver the issue.I have tried restarting, creating a new file but to no avail. The type tools in Illustrator and InDesign are working as expected, so it would appear to be a Photoshop problem and I’m stumped ..
I’m running CS5.5 (Photoshop 12.1) on a Macbook Pro 2.5Ghz Core i7 with 8Gb RAM

My MacBook Pro had been able to use the Rotate Canvas feature in the earlier release of Photoshop CC I downloaded in July, 2013. With the update in September, this feature has stopped working and it no longer detects my video card. True, I don't have 512 Megs of Video memory. And I have tried to install updated NVidia drivers for my computer... but even it refuses to update. My computer has 2 video cards depending on power settings.
OS X 10.6.8
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M (when in energy savings mode)
NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT (normal and usually the display driver I use)
I can not accept that rotate canvas does not work because of my video card or my lack of video card memory. Both Maya and ZBrush are able to handle this operation using software rendered modes. Maya is also able to use my hardware using Viewport 2.0.

Is it possible to get the COG to update its self automatically when I change an assembly / part without having to turn it on and off again? At the moment, as soon as I change a part it just goes grey and has absolutely no use (shows where the COG was, but not is). Obviously this is a bit pointless, so is there a way to make the COG automatically update without any input from me?

I am using Inventor Pro 2010.I have a model and I am driving the dimensions from EXCEL. The model updates nicely when I change dimensions but the drawing (idw) does nothing. In the browser instead of the usual tree in the view there is this red lightning bolt and under them is a big plus (+) sign and the words Solid.... after it.I was assuming that the lightning bolt meant something needed updating, but I can't find how this is done.

Made some minor changes / updates to our .idw template and would like to update previous .idw's to the new template. Can this be done automatically? Is this done in styles?
I have opened previous .idw's and checked for updates in styles and none are shown. The changes/updates are to the title block and revision table. New drawings open with the new template changes, but we would like those changes to any previous drawings as well.
