AutoCAD Inventor :: Autodesk Inventor - TDSetup
Jan 18, 2013
So I installed TD Inventor Professional 30-Day free trial and I downloaded the installer and went through the download of the installer process and it made an autodesk inventor folder on my desktop. I click on it and it takes me into the C drive under the autodesk file Inventor 2012 TestDrive and has an Application called TDSetup. Once I click on it it does a load wheel then nothing happens.
I can't seem to find a solution and I just installed DirectX.

Simple 1-click feature to publish an inventor file to DWF AND send to the Autodesk 360 account for mobile viewing purposes?
To me this would seem to be one of the primary workflows of an online service?
I am interested to know how others have been publishing their Inventor parts and drawings to 360 for viewing and also potentially whether this workflow is under development in the pipeline.

I use a tool which clears Autodesk references from the profile & this fixes a variety of issues.
Generally if the problem isn't seen when logging on as a different user then the profile is to blame.
what the profile does & why it needs to be 'cleaned up' so frequently? Some machines appear to be effected more than others - looking for reasons why this is happening.

I have made a design on autodesk inventor along with gear and motors which give input to the mechanism. (Stewart Platform)
I am able to test the design by giving a random rotary input to a motor component which features availabe on Inventor.
However, I want to control that input somehow. I just want to enter the final coordinates the design needs to reach and the motors should be actuated automatically so as to reach those coordinates.
I have a MATLAB code for the purpose but am unable to understand how to connect it to Autodesk Inventor.

We have recently upgraded from Inventor 2011 Routed Systems to Inventor Pro 2012. We are using XP fully updated to the lastest SP and everything. We have everything configured to our preferences but there is one thing that has been driving me batty. When editing a solid part I open the Style and Standard Editor. Down near the bottom under Realistic Appearance where there should be a ball with a shiney swatch there is a yellow triangle mocking me saying Autodesk Material Library is not available, also none of the bump maps are showing up on new or migrated files whether this is a related issue I am not sure of. All of the normal and custom textures show up just fine, and all the bump textures are in their correct folder in the correct place. I have tried switching the design data folder around with no success.

we get this e-mail from Autodesk extolling the many virtures of Autodesk Seek. I go there and see that most of the files are in RFA format. Can I get these into Inventor by any means? AutoCAD? Inventor Fusion? I do not have Revit.

I am trying to use Autodesk Inventor 2013 with UAC turned on.
Which is fine according to
[URL]
Inventor starts and works fine until we want to use Inventor Studio to render anything. The option is greyed out, if i remove the add-on and re-add it, the options becomes available but all of the options within Inventor studio are greyed out, so it's useless to me.
This is someone else's preview but it applies to this scenario.
[URL]
I can verify that under the same profile with UAC turned off it all works.
I need to leave UAC on and I need to be able to render using Inventor Studio.

Just got upgraded to version 2013 by IT. Seeing that AD still can't maintain consistency from vers to vers. This version replaced 'Color Styles" with 'Appearances'. But, not just appearances, you have Document Appearances, the Autodesk Material Libray, the Autodesk Appearance Library, and the Inventor Material Library.
Why would the Material libraries show up when clicking the Appearances button when there is another button right beside it to get to Materials.
I mean, who is really going to use several dozen different types of flooring. And why is some metal in the metal category and some in default Category. And then some is in the metal Type and some in the generic Type. Is there really a need for two fields for organizing 'appearances' ? If this were a graphical design program I couls see some of this but it is a cad program. Seems like a case of trying to tailor one product to too many markets.
To the question. How do I unlock the Autodesk Appearance Library so I can get rid of all the junk I don't need and add some really obvious ones that are not there.

There's been an interesting conversation going around my office for the last few days about switching to all Microsoft devices in the near future. A look around the AD site shows all the apps for the App Store and Google Play but not Windows Phone. I use a bunch of AD apps on my iPad and iPhone that are a "must have" now. A quick Google search brings up a bunch of articles but I haven't seen anything definitive from AD. Does the AD apps (most importantly SketchBook Mobile, Autodesk 360, ForceEffects) are coming out for that platform anytime in the future?

I have a company logo that I would like to make 3D. I am guessing I can't just import a picture and extrude it. But I would like to know at least how to import a picture so I can at least trace it in a sketch and then extrude it. How can I go about that?

I need to model solids, just like in SolidWorks. Meaning that I need to be able to create separate parts and create assemblies out of them. Also I'm a university student, so I'm entitled to free use of AutoDesk software.
From what I understand, AutoDesk Inventor Professional does this. There is a download link on the Autodesk Education site for this software.However when I try to install it, it won't let me. Instead the installer says I already have Inventor Fusion, which came with AutoCAD.Inventor Fusion is great, but I can't find a way to make assemblies.
Do I need to uninstall Inventor Fusion to get Inventor Professional to work, or is Inventor Fusion the only Inventor software that I can use with a student license?
Also, is there any other way to model solid parts and assemble them with AutoDesk software, like with AutoCAD?

Just a general Content Center question: does Autodesk plan to update (add more parts to) the library at any time in the near future? We really could use some pvc pipe and fittings. Also, fix the MC/C library shapes (they are all MC profiles, not any C's). I'm sure there are a number of additions to be made, but it seams that nothing new has been added for a few releases that I am aware of.

Im trying to do an assignment with Autodesk Inventor. We use Autodesk Inventor pro 2012. For some unknown reason EVERY time i download inventor 2012 pro the installation fails due to a corrupt file. So i thought (In desperation) i would downlaod the 2013 version and see if it would install. Lucky enough it all installed correctly. So i continue with my work on the 2013 edition, and when i go to save it it tells me, that i will not be able to use this file on previous versions. (Which i need to do). Is there by any chance a way to save files, that are compatible with older versins (Like in Word) ?

I do a fair amount of design work for the automotive industry.
Most of the industry uses Catia, and they seem to set up so that certain features have certain colours. I think this is done for when the parts go for machining. The CAM system will recognise certain feature colours and then associate certain tooling with that operation. For example a Ø10mm dowel hole is always blue, and a M8 taper hole is always yellow etc, etc,
Any way to associate certain features with colours in Autodesk inventor?

I am trying to create a spur gear in Autodesk Inventor 11 using the Spur Gears Component Generator in the Design Accelerator. I have been given diminsions for the Spir Gear as followed but don't know how to enter them because there is only a limited amount of values:
Number of teeth........10
Diametric pitch.........9.6
Circulator pitch.........0.32725
Pitch diameter..........1.0416
Outside diameter......1.25
Root diameter...........0.8006
Addendum...............0.10416
Dedendum...............0.10416
Clearance................0.163541
Whole depth............0.22466
Circular thickness....0.163625
Fillet.......................0.03125
Pressure angle........9.00
I enter in the Addendum, Clearance, and Pressure Angle and it says that the values are Ambiguous Inputs. Is there any way that I can create this gear? it doesn't matter about the Loads, Material Values, and Inputs in the Calculations tab.

I am trying to share documents with outside vendors using the Autodesk Cloud services. I have successfully uploaded files but, out of the six people I have shared the files with, only 3 of them can actually see the files.
My question is this: If I send an invitation to view the shared document to a person whose e-mail address is, "john.smith@HisEmail.com" does John have to use that exact e-mail as his official user name when registering with the Cloud or can he use any user name he wants to?
