AutoCAD Inventor :: Copying Spline To New Work Plane And Linking To Original

Aug 29, 2013

I am now trying to model a fuselage for an RC plane and am trying to copy a spline from one work plane to a new one and link them together so that if I edit one, it is reflected in the other. Copying and then pasting into the new plane doesn't link the two splines together.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Work Axis Where Work Plane Intersects Curved Surface?

Sep 9, 2013

I keep running into a situation where I would like to be able to create an edge or a work axis at the intersection of a work plane and the surface of the part.  I figured out a work around if the surface is flat, but I haven't figured out a work around for a curved surface.

How do I create work axis where work plane intersects curved surface?

Or put another way: How do I project intersection of work plane and curved surface onto the work plane in a 2D sketch?

I need to be able to draw a 2D sketch on the work plane, but get a perfectly matching projected line onto the work plane, from the curved surface, at the intersection of the curved surface and the work plane.

The attached jpg shows the intersection in question.  I circled it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copying Without Effecting The Original Assembly

Aug 23, 2011

I have made a wood panel with capabilities to be made adaptive but when i place it into a drawing using the place command i cannot seem to copy it any of the different ways without it being attached and/or effecting the original. I would like to refrain from designing a second because there are many panels in each room and it would take a long time. I'm sure I'm just forgetting something simple and it's causing this to occur.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Consumed Work Plane In Sketch 3D

Apr 13, 2008

I use AddByNormalToCurve method to create a work plane in a sketch 3D. Is it possible to make new workplane object to be consumed by the parent Sketch3D (Workplane.Consumed = True) as it is possible in UI in Edit mode ?

My sample code in IV 2008:

Public Sub WorkPlane_Test()
'reference to the transient geometry
Dim oTG As TransientGeometry
Set oTG = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry
'reference to the component definition

AutoCAD Inventor :: Get Origin Work Plane Of Face Proxy

Jun 14, 2013

I created an Assembly-Constraint between two Work planes by creating a Geometry Proxy

CreateGeometryProxy(OriginWorkplane, TargetWorkPlanProxy)

Now, I want to look into the assembly Constraints and want to get the origin Work plane of the component. So, I now, it's the entity One of a specific Constraint I also now.

What I get is a Face Proxy (the EntityOne gives back a FaceProxy). But how can I get the Workplane, the Proxy Element once was created?

I can get the Surface Body the Work plane was created on, but I don't get the name of the Workplane. My target is, to get the name of the work plane.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Constrain Section View To Work Plane

Jul 2, 2013

If you edit a section view sketch you can project model edges in the sketch and use them to constrain the section view line. However I cannot seem to project an included workplane to the sketch. For a particular application I really need to use a workplane because the model is actually a dummy that gets replaced by a vb macro. So any projected model edges will loose their reference.

I found out that I could use a sketch in the model to create the section view. In a model sketch it is possible to project work planes, so this looks like a good solution. However I do prefer the flexibility that you have when you use a drawing sketch.

How to use a work plane to constrain a section view, other then the model sketch method explained above.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Changing The Source Of An Offset Work Plane

Jan 9, 2014

I have a vertically rectangular frame with internal frame elements at two separate levels based off offset work planes.

The lowest internal plane is offset up from the XZ plane and the highest internal plane is offset up from that lower plane. In hindsight I should have based that second plane also off of XZ, or off the height extents plane at the top of the rectangular box.

So that top third section of the box CAN be sized with a little math, but if I change the lower 2/3  of the rectangle it's going to want to follow that lowest internal plane (which I can tweak again to get what I want)...is there a way to just change the source of that higher internal planes source plane? Like switching it to XZ or the height extents?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Extend And Contract From A Work Plane While Editing A Solid

How to create a work plane, say, in the middle of solid while editing, to use the extend and contract commands using IV2014?  I'd like to avoid using Fusion as an option if possible.  This should really be an easy thing to pull off as many STLs are now available for 3D printing but simply need a quick stretch here and there to print accurately.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Work Plane Based On Pattern Controlled By IPart Table - Cannot Build?

Apr 4, 2013

I have an ipart that will has the length and a quantity of patterned features controlled by a table.  I've created a work plane that I'll be using when I take this part into an iassembly.  The problem is that the features I used to create this work plane (midplane between two parallel planes) do not exist in (2) of the (3) members...so it gives me an error message.  I've tried adding the work plane to the table, but 'exclude' isn't a drop-down (and typing it in doesn't work). How to make the work plane "inactive" for those particular members?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Spline Design Generator - External Involute Spline Error

Sep 28, 2011

I'm trying to create an external involute spline (ANSI B92.2M) Fillet Root Side Fit 26.9mm x 1 mm x 26 teeth x 38 mm long using the spline generator with Inventor 2012. I created a test shaft"M-182-AMA.ipt" that is Ø26.9 mm x 38 mm long with 1 mm radius on each end of shaft.

I use the following steps:

1. After creating component "M-182-AMA.ipt" I select Design tab>>Power Transmission>>Involute Spline.
2. A window appears that has the caption "Involute Splines Connection Generator".In the Dimensions section I choose "Splines Type: ANSI B92.2M - 37.5 deg, Fillet Root, Side Fit, 26 x 1.00 x 38 x 5H/5h" and change the Length to 38 mm.
3. In the Shaft Groove section I use Create new, and I push the Reference 1 button that turns blue, I then select the od feature from the model and I get an error(see attached pic "error1.jpg).

I changed the 26.9mm od to be 27mm and it still gave me the error.

3ds Max Animation :: Linking Deflector To Slice Plane Position

Oct 8, 2013

100 frame animation setup. created a slice plane on a box, animated it, copied it to a copy of the box with different material, tried to link a deflector created in the left view port to the slice plane and it doesn't exactly line up/match.
 
checked animation curves, there was only 1 on the slice plane, and tried linear or curved, no difference, the deflector doesn't line up exactly.
 
tried wiring it to each box, recreated a couple times.  the attached picture shows the slice plane and how it lags behind the gray/white slice modifiers.

AutoCad 2D :: Copying To Original Coordinates?

Apr 25, 2012

I am trying to copy objects between 2 x files.

Both files have the same UNITS, UCS (World, although I have also tried an identical user-defined UCS on each file) and INSBASE (when I'm using world).

However, when I copy objects from one file and paste with original coordinates to the other, the objects are kilometres apart.

What other settings I can try here?

AutoCad 2D :: How To Fix Offset And Get Text On Same Plane As Line Work

Jan 9, 2013

I am having a problem with some dimensions in a drawing. I have a 2D representation of my 3D model (using FLATSHOT) in my model space. I added the dimensions in a custom UCS and everything looks fine in paper space when looking at the TOP view but in model space I notice that the text is offset on the z-axis by a very large amount, like 7 meters large (I'm working in mm). How to fix the offset and get the text on the same plane as the line work?

3ds Max Modeling :: Connecting Spline For Roof Doesn't Work?

Oct 15, 2013

i already searched for a similiar problem, but I did not find any.. I'm new to 3ds Max and im using 2014.
 
I created a spline from a shape, which is the upper spline. The lower spline is created by the  create line option. With refine i added a few vertexes.
 
Now i want to connect the vertexes but it doesnt work. The only 2 vertexes that are connectable when i click on connect (a little + appears when I hover those vertexes) is the lower right and the lower left. When I use cross section, all the vertexes connect anyhow, but not the way I want it.
