We are working with Inventor Premium 2013 with Vault Pro 2013. Recently, several users had the "delete local copy" check box greyed out when checking into Vault.

Have a problem of users using files in their local workspace instead of getting the latest files from Vault?
This is an Inventor question because my next step will be to develop an Inventor addin which deletes files from a user's local workspace when they check the files in.

I am tryiing to "purge" a local appearance in a part. From the tools>Appearance, I want to delete the Knurled (Coarse), but the delete is greyed out.
I cleared the appearance overrides, but it is still greyed out. Here is a short video of what I have tried.
The reason I am going thru this excersice it to remove the knurl.bmp that shows up in by vault browser... watch the end of the video.
When I implemented Inventor Pro 2013 I added all our custom materials to the Inventor Material Library. This library is not local but on a shared network drive that everyone in my company can access.You can clearly see that it is not locked and is write enabled. I dragged the local material to the library and I shows up in the library. When I close and exit Inventor and re-open, it is no longer available.
You can clearly see by my screen capture that the new material was added to the library. Why isn't is updating the library?
I have managed our Inventor styles and libraries for Inventor since 2003 (R5) and I never had as much problems getting my mind to wrap around this new appearances change that Autodesk has made. I have wasted 4 hours this morning trying to add a simple custom material to my library and I cannot.
Using ISO.idw template I created into a sheet a Sketch which contains a hatch. Now I want to delete that hatch and I don't find anywhere how to delete it.
The second problem is this: I want to create in multiple sheets the same drawing but with small differences. How to copy a drawing from a sheet to another sheet. I press right click on the first sheet and i press Copy but there's no Paste button.
Why is the delete option greyed out?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm coming from a Smoke Linux perspective so the terms might not be right:
Pre-Release 6, I've imported and EDL, linked it to DPX film scans on the network, and consolidated 10 frame handles. I can "cache" the files locally as ProResHQ, but how do I do a "store local copy"? That is make a copy of the DPX files I need on my machine.
I am conforming three 2 minute long sequences and am trying to soft import all the footage, then conform, then consolidate to 24 frame handles, then Store Local Copy all the footage (only used in each sequence). I feel like i used to get a "Pending Render" super over the preview player in the Library. For some reason i am not getting this message. Is there any way to check the progress of the Store Local Copy, or to make sure that smoke is actually storing a local copy? The drive that the media lives on is a 2TB GRaid and i am getting awful performance in smoke when trying to do anything with the clips/sequences, which i expected...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running Photoshop CS5 Extended on a Mac OSX 10.7.3. I can not copy or align any files in Photoshop. This happens no matter what I do or how the file was created. I have tried everything and nothing seems to resolve the issues. It is not a locked layer, I have checked all my preferences and I am using all the default settings. I am at my witts end!
Basically what I have been doing is to use Fireworks but I now have to use Photoshop for a certain project.
Copy & paste is greyed out in CS5 after I upgraded to Mac OSX 10.6.8.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a number of clips that were soft imported, then used in the paint module to remove some blemishes. I have since done a 'store local copy' on the original clips.
The painted clip still has the 'soft' indicator. How do I update the painted clip?
Is there a way to go into the history of the painted clip and replace the soft import with the local copy? Do I 'store local copy' on the painted clip?
How do I delete albums from "local albums"?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a user that when he clicks on an item to highlight it, he can't drag it anywhere, can't copy and paste it, and can't delete it. I've uninstalled and resinstalled the application more than once. After an uninstall, I went through all directories and deleted all remaining files and folders that had either Autodesk or AutoCAD in the name and spent 1 1/2 hrs sifting through the registry and eliminating all Autodesk and AutoCAD entries. I then reinstalled the application (AutoCAD 2010), and the user is still having the same issues.

My (previously wonderful) local adjustment brush has apparently quit working. Whenever I attempt to make local adjustments - using either the standard presets or custom settings - all the adjustments made are applied to the entire image, not just locally. Density and flow are set to my typical values and Show Selected Mask Overlay shows the extent of the applied effect, but whatever adjustment I make is applied generally, over the entire photo, rather than to the selected adjustment area.

I am using version 2014 and all the tabs under "Design" are greyed out. I am trying to use the "Insert Frame" function.

why the BOM settings would be greyed out, when trying to add a BOM to a drawing? I also can not expand sub-assemblies.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using IV2009 on Windows 7 64bit. I am somewhat new to Inventor, maybe this is simple.
The Aseembly Panel is greyed out in the model I am working on, see attached. There are also a lot of broken constraints that I am unable to work on becaue the red cross is greyed out also. (I did try open this in IV2012, with the same result on the ribbon assembly panel)
I do not know exactly how it happened, as I did not create it; to my understanding it occurred while restructuring the assembly tree in a lower level assembly. This model is made up of lots of MDT imported parts, and some step parts as well. This model is also very heavy, and took too long for its size to load on my 32GB notebook.
The only way to do FEA analysis is through Autodesk's cloud server, the problem is my company's firewalls will not allow us to store, connect, or use cloud's or any server but ours. So I wondering if there is a option or setting that I can change and do all the computing locally on my machine.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow to place part or assembly from the Vault or local Hard drive in to the existing assembly?
Basically I do have a list of parts (wall panels different sizes etc...) I was going to create an iLogic form with drop downs, so engineer can choose wall panel assemblies he needs and qty`s. iLogic will pull these assemblies from the vault/HDD in to the existing assembly. Currently we have to go to so many different folders to pick them up.
why after creating a new sketch I don't have the ability to use "Project Cut Edges" I am following a model from U-Tube called "LED LAMP". Time stamp 1hour 46 mins . I first Isolated the "Handle" I am creating in my assembly. I am creating a sketch on XY Plane. Then slice graphics. So I can Project Cut Edges on to my model. It is greyed out so it is not available. If I open the part file on its own the command is available to use, but not in my assembly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis just happened to me this morning, I split a part into a multibody part and as soon as I did the split, the entire design tree got greyed out. It doesnt matter if I have only one body visible or both of them, the tree stays greyed out. I can still edit features but its annoying to not know what is on and whats off. I opened a new file mocked up a quick part with various features performed a split and same results.

When opening a top assembly I have the "Place button" and can place new items into the assembly.
When I open a subassembly from within the top assembly, the place button is greyed out.
When I open the same subassembly directly, not having the top assembly loaded, the place button is back again.
This is a new fenomenon for 2014 and I cannot figure out why the place button suddenly greyes out.
I do not run Vault client although it was installed. The problem remains after having uninstalled the Vault client.
Whenever I edit an Extrude 'cut' feature,(eg: To Add or remove a profile), the OK button is greyed out and no matter what I do, I can't get it back.
The only way to edit the extrusion is to:
Shift EOP
Delete the extrusion
Recreate the extrusion.
Shift EOP
fix errors if any.

Whenever anyone at the company tries to open a model that has a decal part in it, the File Edit window comes up asking if the person wants to check out the part. As decals generally never change after they are created, they are never desired to be checked out. After saying no to check out, the window then reappears stating that the local is never than the vault, even though you just finished a Get operation. Is there anyway to keep these files from needed constant updating?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor the last few years I had my content center libraries running as part of the vault server. I have not made any customizations.
I want to try to have the content center libraries on my local machine to see if that speeds things up.
Is that possible while still using the vault server for our regular data?
Do I need to make any changes to my project file?
