AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Color Of A Face In Assembly

Jan 9, 2013

There are instances where we need to add an extrusion in an assembly (.iam) to show labeling that needs to be done on the floor during assembly.

So we do a new sketch to the face where we need to add the "label", we use text and extrude it 0.001" deep (cut).

On the drawing (.idw) you can see it no problem, but in the model (.iam) itself it's hard to see since the faces that result from the extrusion are the same color as the participant part.

My question is this:  Is it possible to change the color of the face of the extrusion?

It's not super important but it would be a good thing to show that detail as we sometimes print a color version of the 3D view for prototyping, troubleshooting, etc.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal Face - Include In Flat Pattern

Dec 19, 2013

Using a sketch, i've made a sheet metal face with a 1/4" thickness.

When i select "create flat pattern", inventor only uses a very small portion of the part, and the rest disappears.

Inventor doesn't prompt any windows or generate an error message of any kind. How can i include everything in my flat pattern?

AutoCad 3D :: Change Face Color Command Customizable?

Apr 28, 2011

I was working on some modifications to a previous drawing and needed to change the face color on multiple faces, about 40 of them... After using the command on a couple of them, I decided that an improvement is required or I'm not understanding how to pick multiple items with the same stroke of the command. What I'm asking is, is there a way to pick multiple faces to change multiple face color in just a few strokes or can a custom lisp file be created to speed this process up?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Select Set Face Colour Simultaneously?

Mar 19, 2013

Is there any way to change the colour of all faces in a select set simultaneously?

The method I am referring to is when you select faces in a part document, rickt click and select properties from the context menu, a dialog box pops up called "Face Properties" which prompts you to select a colour and click OK. when this is done all of the faces are changed at once.

How do I replicate this via the API?

Currently I have it iterate through each face in a part document and apply the colour override one by one which can take a while when there are about 1000 faces. You can see each face changing as you go.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Merging Circular Face To Flat Face

Aug 22, 2012

All I need to do is merge a circular face to a flat face, so both faces become one continuous face. Is this possible at all?

I have a attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Face 1 needs to be merged with face 2. This is so if I constrain anything to that face it will constrain to the entire face and not either the circular face OR the flat face.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Custom Color Style

Nov 22, 2011

I'm trying to create a life-like model to show a customer, and one of the critical aspects is the color.  I'll use Publisher to get the photo finish, but I still have to get the color to look like the real world paint.  I've contacted my paint co to see if they could give me RGB values that I could input into the custom color style editor--see attached dialog box. They said that what they have doesn't correlate at all .

AutoCAD Inventor :: Object Default Style Change

Jan 17, 2011

I am using Inventor version 2011. I wrote this code which tells me which object defaults style is active

Public Sub ActiveObjectDefaults()

Dim oDocument As DrawingDocument
Set oDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim DrgStMgr As DrawingStylesManager
Set DrgStMgr = oDocument.StylesManager
Dim ObjDfStyle As Style
Set ObjDfStyle = DrgStMgr.ActiveStandardStyle.ActiveObjectDefaults
MsgBox ObjDfStyle.Name
End Sub

Is it possible to change Active Object Defaults Style by VBA code (see picture below)?

I am trying to change Object Defaults in order to temporarily switch style which use layers with different line weights, and than switch it back. I am new to VBA so I am not sure if I am not trying to do something what is impossible.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Style Of Existing Dimension

Oct 14, 2009

I'm chasing the syntax on what i hope is a very simple procedure.

We have a project for re-design and manufacture here (Australia) of a machine that has been designed and detailed in one of our US offices. For this reason, we will be wanting all dimensions in mm etc, rather than inch.

My intention is to open the idw(s), update the styles library (done, i think...), change the active standard to "AS Metric" (got the code sorted for that too), and then change all dimensions to AS Metric.

So far i have each of these 3 processes in a different sub, called from a master. But my problem is in changing the style. I could change a dimension's style to match that of another existing style:

Set oGeneralDimensions = oSheet.DrawingDimensions.GeneralDimensions.Item(1)

but I am having trouble setting is to the active style.

My module:

Sub ChangeStyle()
Dim oIDWDoc As DrawingDocument
Set oIDWDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSheet As Sheet
Dim oDim As DrawingDimension
Dim oDimStyle As DrawingStandardStyle
Dim oGeneralDimensions As GeneralDimension

[Code]....

AutoCAD 2010 :: Plotting To Pdf With Shadows And No Face Style

Jun 19, 2013

I am creating a 3D model and have my selected view within a viewport on layout space.

My prefered visual style for the model is with no face style (i.e only isolines visible) with full shadows on. This looks perfect on layout space.

When plotting to pdf - it looks nothing like as shown despite setting the viewport shade style to as displayed or the selected visual style and the shadows don;t show.

As the pdf option is not providing the desired output. Is there something I am doing wrong or is there a way to render the model whilst showing no face style/material?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Change Parts List Style

Feb 8, 2012

Below are 2 rules that run in succession to create and save a parts list from a base view in a drawing.

I am now trying to set the parts list style to a custom style, ideally while creating the list.

Also, I have to manually go into the list to turn off visibility of certain items (based on material), does I can do this with Ilogic?  I ask because these steps precede a rule that automates placing base views of all parts in the parts list.  If I could get the style and visibility right, I could automate the entire process.

Looking for changing such a style with ilogic?

CREATE PARTS LIST____
' Set a reference to the drawing document.
' This assumes a drawing document is active.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Default Label Style To Child Style

Jan 2, 2013

I am trying to change the default label styles for AddSegmentLabel under general styles using .NET...

Dim X As Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel = CD.Settings.GetSettings(Of Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel)()

X.Styles.LineLabel.Value = strChildStyleName ... says name does not exist

or

X.Styles.LineLabelStyleId.Value = oidChildStyle ... "The type of objectId is wrong"

If I manually change it to a child style and then check the values, they are the same as what I'm trying to set them to. If you use a "parent" style then these both work. Am I doing something wrong or this another limitation?
