View 3 Replies View RelatedIt is my first time using inventor, so I am obviously not experienced with it in the least. Whenever I open any file, part, assembly, etc... the ribbon shows up fine, but the browser will not show up, and I cannot find a way to turn it on or off (if that is even a possibility).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using the following sample code to add files to a browser folder
Public Sub AddOccurrencesToFolder()
Dim oDoc As AssemblyDocument Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition Set oDef = oDoc.ComponentDefinition
Dim oPane As BrowserPane Set oPane = oDoc.BrowserPanes.ActivePane

How do I get the files added to an existing " My Occurrence Folder" rather than creating a new one. Every time I run the code a new folder is created, it does not use the exisitng one
I opened the drawing and then from the drawing opened the model. In the drawing it is showing the 4th instance of ROUND CRS-032175 X 33 as an assembly. It also is not showing in the view and yet the visibility is checked. AI2012 SP2

The code fails at this point and I gett an error pointing to the line "Call oTargetNode.AddChild(oSourceNodeDef)". I can add the occurence with the browserpanes.Reorder method without issue if the folder is not empty. The code is pasted Below.

When I press F1 Inventor opens the help on my default browser (Chrome), but when I click the bynocular it uses Internet Explorer.
Is it possible to force Inventor to use a browser of my choice or the default browser?
An IPN file is showing multiple assembly files in it's browser even though I have confirmed there is only one of the assemblies in the IAM file.
I'm not sure if it's causing any real difficulty in the IDW views but it's not giving me any confidence.

Is there a way to rename browser nodes within a part in a similar way that the rename browser nodes tool works in assemblies? I am copying designs with derived parts, after copying the design I can see that the part files contain the correct links to other parts when I open the base component but they display as the old name in the browser which is not ideal.

I've recently had to re-install my OS and re-install Master Collection...
However, the little Asterisk that shows up in the comp title bar that indicates your comp has unsaved changes is not showing up for whatever reason,I've search the web and can't seem to find any info on why it's not showing up I've had to re-install various times before and never had this problem before.. .and the Asterisk shows up in Pr and AE like it should
Using Photoshop CC, what the asterisk means inside the tab name? This is on the inside of the bracket, outside it would mean not saved. I'm using 16 bit files throughout and the ProPhoto RGB Workspace. Files are transferred in and out of Lightroom 5.2 as my front-end .
e.g. Nikon D700-4162-ME.tif @ 21.9% (RGB/16*)
When I am browsing to open drawings for some reson the back button doesn't work with the ACA2011 file browser. The mouse button works fine with all other applications so am I correct to assume something is wrong with the ACA file browser?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you place a part (let’s say structural steel part) from content center as a custom part and later change the part size, the browser still shows the old part name which makes it very confusing when scanning through the browsers when you're trying to find something. It makes it almost unusable if you can’t trust the description. How do others handle this? I know about browser rename but that won't work because it defaults back when you close and reopen.

Inventor 2010 / I'm finding myself scrolling up and down the browser bar quite a lot to get to the Solid Bodies folder for example, and I was wondering if it was possible to group features into folders or something to make the journey quicker, with the benefit of also being able to just organize things a bit better.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use Inventor 2013 as a single user, my company is about to invest in Vault and we are about to introduce a new automated Part Numbering Scheme as well.
I use a spreadsheet and iLogic rules as ‘Product Configurator’ to generate new iterations of my master assembly.
Now, the Assembly Browser in Inventor may display my assembly tree and its components by Part No or File Name or Default Browser Nod. See attached image.
This can be selected and set on the ribbon: click Assemble tab Productivity panel Rename Browser Nodes.
For example at Top Level Assy I have a rule to run other rules in components. Should I change the displayed components names on the Assy Tree the rules loose reference. So they wouldn’t run.
(for example: iLogicVb.RunRule("PANEL ASSY 2ndS:1", "Tie Rods & Washer Plates 2ndS")
PANEL ASSY 2ndS:1 is a component with a rule in it "Tie Rods & Washer Plates 2ndS"
This is the default Browser Nod Name and it could also be
- AAA-0111 --> Part No
- PANEL ASSY 2ndS.iam:1 --> File name
- PANEL ASSY 2ndS:1 --> Default
I suppose this can be avoided by not changing from Default, but what an inconvenience should we have to.Unless if there is an other way to reference our components in iLogic?
I changed the name of a valve manually in the browser. Now, when I copy the valve to a different part name it does not update the name of the new part in the browser. How do I get the part name in the browser to be dynamic again?

My browser is gone. When toggled, it does not show up. I ushally have two screens, but when i have it on only one screen it disappers completely. My laptop is set to " Laptop display" Only mode. I bring up Inventor, and my browser will not toggle on and off on the screen even though the box is checked, and unchecked.
