I am trying to do a detail view on an isometric and i would like a long sausage shape angled with the isometric. the detail views are round or rectangular horizontal, i would even be happy with a rectangle on the piss in line with the isometric.
i tried putting on a sketch of my sausage shape and performing a breakout view but it will only take away the components within the sausage, i want to flip this. I then tried putting a big rectangle on the same sketch in the hope that it would leave the sausage as an island, (much like a hatch) .
I'm working on a UDK level for a college assignment.
I want to create a circular shaped elevator with a circular fence around it that's roughly half the size of an average sized character standing on it. I then wish it import this as a static mesh into UDK.
Here are 2 sketched up designs of the elevator, what I want to create.
1st image: [URL].... 2nd image: [URL]....
I am very new to 3DS Max so I would prefer a list of steps to follow to create this elevator with a a fence,
Is there a way to customize the fence labels for detail and section views?
I know we can edit the label directly and add/remove text, but is there way to change the appearance of the label as well, with say a sketched symbol or other graphical representation like a balloon or other customized image?
I am currently trying to model a multi cavity mould tool. The cavities themselves do not follow either a circular or rectangular pattern.I have modelled one of the cavities using a revolve internal to the tool. I have also sketched out on the upper surface centre points where I need the cavities to be.
I was hoping I would be able to copy the cavity feature, select a base point and then use the centres from my second sketch to place the cavities.
I don't seem to be able to find this option. The copy and paste feature will likely work but it is hugely long winded positioning each cavity individually. Any method I might be able to use to model such a part?
I need to know what sketch is associated to either a "Rectangular"or "Circular"array. This is so I can filter out sketches that are not repeated in an array.
Here is my code so far (Circular Array).
Dim oCP As CircularPatternFeature For Each oCP In oDef.Features.CircularPatternFeatures THIS IS THE TROUBLE LINE If sketch = oCP.Parent Then Set oCP = oDef.Features.CircularPatternFeatures.Item(oCP.Name) [code]........
I have a simple test part containing an extruded disk (Sketch1) and 8 holes on a pcd (Sketch2). I only want to array a sketch if it is arrayed.
While using the Circular Pattern feature or rectangular pattern feature in Inventor, sometimes I want to extrude (join) or cut the drawings that I made (augmented) with using circular pattern feature, rectangular pattern feature. in this case do I have to choose all the augmented members one by one (for instance I make 42 augmented members), it can take a lot of time. also after applied any of these features I can't use trim feature, can I ? but sometimes using the trim feature after applying the Circular Pattern feature or rectangular pattern can be necessary.
The problem: I want a circular pattern for rectangular shaped holes, and I don't want the holes to rotate. The circular pattern doesn't have an option to retain the orientation.
Looking to see if any out there has a "Double Rolling Chain Link Fence Detail for opennings greater than 25 feet" who does not mind sharing. Although I have seen a double cantelever sliding gate of geater openning width, Of all my years in the building modelling field I had never seen a detail, or an actual gate for that matter. This is for a regular galvanized chain link fence construction. My search online has been fruitless.

How can I make a circular pattern of a single occurence of a rectangular pattern?
A shaft has a rectangular pattern of holes (along its axis) on its surface. I want to pattern the 4th occurence of this hole pattern as a circular pattern? Can I do it in Autodesk. I can not select the a specific occurance of a patterned feature to pattern it again.
I've created a drawing and when I create a detail view, the actual view appears in the drawing but the circle and arrows along with the view identifier are not showing up. It's like the visibility has been turn off. how to turn it back on?

As you see in the template photo (the photo was scanned by Microsoft Security Essentials, healthy) I wanted to extrude my circle, and I made 28 pieces with circular pattern feature; now, do I have to choose all the pieces by one by to be able to choose all?
The sum of the problem: while using the Circular Pattern feature or rectangular pattern feature in Inventor, sometimes I want to extrude (join) or cut the drawings that I made (augmented) with using circular pattern feature, rectangular pattern feature. in this case do I have to choose all the augmented members one by one (for instance I make 42 augmented members), it can take a lot of time.?
Sometimes when I try to create a detail view of an isometric view in my IDW, the "detail full boundary" option is greyed out? Why would this be? If I try an ortho view it works fine.
I have a detail view of a groove on a cylinder. I want to dimension a diameter in which I only see one side, the other side is not in the detail view.
From some posts I see that I should auto insert a centerline then dimension from centerline then choose options "dimension linear".
First when I try to auto insert centerlines it does not insert the centerline for me. Perhaps because my detail is smaller. If I make the field for the detail view larger it makes a centerline, but I dont want to do that. I have tried making a sketch of the other side and the centerline. When I dimension from here I do not have the right click option of dimension linear, instead only arrowhead options.
is it possible to create a detail view of an Iso view which is created with perspective camera? I tried it but it does not seem to let you have the option of selecting the connection line or detail view boundary?
I'm trying to create a custom expression in a structure table that will list the "size" of the structure, wheter it be a circular or rectangular structure. My column simply states size and I want it to label 5' for a circular or 4'x4' for a rectangular (or whatever the specific sizes are). The thought was to create an IF function, but Structure Shape was not available to use in expressions (among other problems). Short of using the description field (tedious) as a workaround?
In this example - CB-104 is a rectangular structure and CB-106 is a circular. I'd like the CB-104 size to read 4'x4'.
Is there a property or method that can control the location of the name for a detail view? For example the picture below. Detail "B" represents the api default. Detail "C" representes where I want to put the text. All the properties, aside from "Name" apparently deal with the detail view itself.
How can I move a detail view to another sheet in a drawing in 2009? I have only been able to copy the detail and it's parent view to the 2nd sheet and then suppress the parent view on the 2nd sheet so that only the detail view is visible.
However, when I go back to the first sheet and try to suppress or delete the detail view, it also deletes / suppresses the detail circle from the parent view.
I know I'v done this before but I'm having trouble getting a detail view to just show the jagged cut lines where it crosses the part only & not all the way around it. See images attached to show the problem.
While creating a drawing yesterday, I noticed that the RMB Options to modify a detail view has disappeared?
- Cutout Shape
- Detail Boundry
- Connecting line
I am not sure how long this has been like this, What I do know is that I had a corrupt model, (Broke when it migrated to 2013) I restored from backup and tested the model in ver 2012.
I can not say if bouncing between the two versions of inventor has perhaps changed something, or of this option has not been available for a while?

How does one remove the boundary box for a detail view? I don't want it sitting in my main view, as this is a conveyor and it's very obvious at to where the drive arrangement is sited. See attached.
I'm guessing changing it to another layer that does not print is one option, or?
I've created a view in my presentation file and tweaked all my components to where I want them. How do I change the level of detail associated with a particular explosion already created? I know when you create the view you can select which representation and level of detail to use, but how do you change these after the exploded view is created?
I've had this issue now for quite a while. Seems to only happen with wires that are made in the Cable & Harness module. And the odd part is that not all wires do this and not all View Rep/Detail views do this.
Regardless of wether I have a wire visible or not in a locked View Rep it still shows up in the Detail View on the .idw. And yes, I have the 'associative' check box checked.
I've unchecked the check box, nothing. Rechecked the box, nothing. Updated the views individually, nothing.
