AutoCAD Inventor :: Degrees Of Freedom Glyphs

May 16, 2013

If there is a way to change the size of the 3d glyphs which display the degrees of freedom of parts within an assembly ? I need to alter them to be slightly bigger.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Show Degrees Of Freedom Glyphs On A Sketch

Dec 12, 2011

This page mentions the degrees of freedom glyphs, but it doesn't say how to show them, and I couldn't find any ribbon button or context menu item that mentions them.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Edit Degrees Of Freedom After Playing Simulation

Aug 5, 2013

I am not able to edit degrees of freedom (dof) after playing a simulation.

This is what I did:

Created a dynamic simulation and imposed motion on a prismatic joint.Edit dof and Input Grapher before playing the simulation.Play the simulation.After playing simulation for first time, dof and Input Grapher are dimmed (grayed out) and can not be edited.

Here are screen shots of the dimmed dof and Input Grapher:

I am using Inventor 2012. A simple example is attached.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Lost All Tooltips And Glyphs

Mar 5, 2012

I needed to check some vehicle turning movements against my design, so I started Civil 3d from the AutoTurn icon.  As I was working I noticed that I don't have any Tooltips anymore.  I've checked the global tooltip settings in the Civil3d settings, and the Autocad options, and also the tooltip settings for individual objects. 

I also found that the glyphs which should appear when snaps are turned on aren't visible, although the snaps do work properly.  Once I had finished with the vehicle checks I shut down, and then restarted from the Civil3d icon but the behavior hasn't changed back to normal.  I've also tried repairing the installation - next step will be a full reinstall.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketch Flipping When Going More Than 180 Degrees

Feb 20, 2013

Here's the situation:

I have a tube, approximately 16" O.D., 14" high, and 1/8" thick. This is all a single part.

I'm trying to cut 3.5" wide and 4" tall slots around the top. The number of slots can be 1-6.

I'm driving the size and slots from a spreadsheet.

The orientation of the slots can have the first slot anywhere from 0 to 360 degrees. (FWIW, the spreadsheet redefines 0 and .0001 and 360 and 359.99).

Anyhow, as long as the first slot is between 0-180, it works just great. Once you pass 180, however, the verticals of the sketch flip so it's barely cutting the notch at all.

To make the cuts i've created a sketch off the top of the cylinder and drawn a construction line at 0 and another and put a driven dimension between them to set the correct position of the angle. I think create a workplane off that line tanget it to it's end point. At that point, draw sketch, extrude, etc.

I've also create a workplan off one of the origin planes and the origin Y axis that's perpendicular to the notch (angle driven by spreadsheet and equation in workplanes angle offset). Offset a 2nd plane tangent to the O.D. of the tube, created a sketch, extrude etc.

In both instances, when the angle crosses 180 degrees, the sketch flips on me.

What can I do to keep the sketch from flipping?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Why Does The Camera Turn 180 Degrees After Selecting Top Plane

Jan 11, 2013

I use inventor 2013. Whenever I start a new sketch and select the top plane, the camera changes so I look at the top plane but also rotates 180degrees. I really hate that the camera rotates 180 degrees because it causes me to always see the drawing upside down (and then change the camera... every time...)

Is there a way to disallow inventor to cause this treason?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotation Translation - Get Circumference Of Wheel To Rotate 360 Degrees

Dec 23, 2013

I have Autodesk inventor standard NOT the pro version. I am a Revit professional in dire need of learning Inventor. My exact steps are as follows:

1. Open assembly
2. create component - (simple wheel(cylinder) with an off axis hole in the middle so I can see if it is rotating.)
3. create component- flat surface.
4. constrain the cylinder to the flat surface via a tangent constraint
5. constrain the cylinder to the front edge of the flat surface via a mate constraint.
6. go to motion tab in constraint's, click rotation-translation, type in 10in for distance.
7.wheel does not rotate on surface like a wheel should. There is no affect of the surface on the wheel rotation.

In other words I want to get the circumference of the wheel to rotate 360 degrees as it travels pi*diameter of flat surface.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Stainless Steel Sheet - Rotate Texture Through 90 Degrees

Aug 7, 2013

We use a lot of #4 finish Stainless steel sheet.

I have automated the changing of the active renderstyle to "Polished Brushed" to approximate this, but usually orientation is important. For instance, the texture will be around tube, and on large sheets, we want to keep all the sections orientated one specific direction.

I'd like to be able to easily rotate the texture thru 90 degrees (and possibly, a user selectable angle).

I'd prefer not to have to manually select a face first, either.

Revit :: Using Navisworks Freedom As Viewer

Mar 11, 2012

Using Navisworks Freedom as a viewer? I read that Revit needs a Navisworks plugin to export a .nwd file. Or is it Navisworks Freedom needs a plugin for rvt files? Revit and Navisworks have full cross reading and writing capability so it seems a short step to a common viewer.
 
I also understand that Autodesk have suggested installing Revit in viewer mode as a viewer. Its too big an install to expect clients to use this approach. Must be possible somehow with NV Freedom!

Revit :: Exporting To File Navisworks Freedom Can Open

Nov 14, 2011

The Revit 2011 Navisworks Exporter plugin works fine for exporting files for Navisworks Manage (.nwc).  The problem is that those files can't be opened in Navisworks freedom until they are converted to a .nwd file.  Can the .nwd be generated directly from the plugin?  Both NWD and NWC are shown in the Navisworks Options Editor for the plugin, but only a .nwc is generated.

I haven't changed my preferences or upgraded the software, but suddenly my "ci"s are changing to "a"s with a tilde over them, and my "ek"s are changing to "fi" ligatures. I've looked in my preferences and settings and cannot see where to control this.

AutoCAD LT :: Rotate Plan 180 Degrees

Sep 15, 2012

Needed to rotate my plan 180 degrees.  So I typed in UCS enter then z enter then 180 enter and then plan enter.  My plan rotated and it looked fine.  I noticed my crosshairs where now green and red.  I needed to add more things to my drawings but the lines I was drawing do not look straight - they look bent and the ucs icon doesnt look square. I attached my drawing for you to see what I am talking about
