How can I create a hole in a part using a sketch? I tried using the create hole command on a sketch and it still only wants to create a circular hole. How can I create a hole such as a rectangle in inventor?

Inventor 2012, sp1
I have a problem with using the excel spreadsheet to hold my parameters and then making them auto update in the model.
I have the excel 2003 spreadsheet saved in the same folder in the projects directory as the model. When I create the spreadsheet and enter the parameters and values etc I save and close the file.
When I am in inventor 2013 64 bit with SP1 installed, I open the model and can link the spreadsheet to the model and the model reflects the values in the spreadsheet. I also click update on the parameters dialog box.
I then open the spreadsheet and make some changes to the values, save the file and even go to the extreme of closing the file. When I go back into Inventor it recognises there has been some changes in the underlying spreadsheet. The update button is active in the tool bar. However trying to update the models by what ever means does not update the model parameters to those in the spreadsheet. Even closing the model and reopening it does not make a difference.
The only way I can get this to work is disconnecting the file and then reconnecting the file through the links option in the parameters dialog box. Then the model reflects the correct values and updates the model accordingly.
My concern is there is quite a bit of stuff on the net about 2013 not working with 2014 inventor anyway.

I've never tried this in AutoCAD before. I would like to create a simple rectangular area with a circle in its center. When this area is hatched, the circle is hollowed out. Furthermore, I'd like to have this to insert into a block for stretch action manipulation. Is this possible with AutoCAD 2010?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm working with Autocad 2011. My objective is to create a dynamic block made up of a circle with a letter or number inside. Here's the tricky part. As I add additional letters or numbers the circle increases in diameter automatically to fully encircle whatever it is I type. The more letters or numbers the larger the circle and the fewer the letters or numbers the smaller the circle?
Or is there a lisp routine for this type of request?
in 2012 I saved a layerstate and it shows in the dialog but if I change the stet to another and go back none of the settings are held.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUsing Adobe Illustrator 10 for Windows 98 (no kidding).I'm designing a spot logo for a Charity.What I want to do is:
1. Create a black circle (not filled, just the outline)
2. Have a word on top (in this case, International) follow the path of the curve.
3. Have the words "Awareness Fund" on the bottom, right-side up
Here is the issue:
1. I can make the path for the circle but I cannot make it any given color, it just disappears when I click off of it. How do I do this?
2. I can get the word on the top to follow the curve, but I cannot break out of it.. I don't know the term. I cannot get the text tool to 'let go' of the previous word and start new ones.
3. When I try to put the words "Awareness Fund" on the bottom not only do I have the problem that it is still attached to the first word on top but the letters are upside down.. how do I convert them to be right-side up?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI noticed when you put in vertical parabolic curves onto the profile tangents it will ask you if you want length or k.
however depend on which one you specify. it will hold on to that value when it comes to changing the tangent locations. for what i am doing now i want k by default. but accidentally i put in length because i just went through all the pi's quickly to put in the curves. but i see no control which allows you to control which type to hold. this is a property inside the vertical curve but it's not exposed to user. once you create by length that's it. until you delete the curve and re enter using k then it will hold k.
