AutoCAD Inventor :: Removing Dual Dimensions For Threaded Holes Only
Jan 4, 2012We want to use dual dimensions for holes and figured out how to do this by editing the styles. This works great except for threaded holes the dual dimension is redundant as shown in the picture.
Is there a way to not have the dual dimension for threaded holes but keep them for other holes? Having a dual dimentsion for a metric thread or having it printed twice on the drawing is pointless.

May 19, 2013I am new to inventor and from a Solidworks background so parts are similar to me.
I am also new to my workplace and part of my job is to clean up and produce some of our CAD files. We are missing drawings from design documentation and I have decided to start there.
How do am I able to add Dimensions into .idw files other than the Retrieve dimensions function?
In other words how can I add dimensions at will?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Editing Dimensions In IDW Drawings
Aug 12, 2013I am having trouble when editing dimensions in idw drawings.An example being that i wish to change the dimension text

AutoCAD Inventor :: Depth / Height Dimensions In Drawings
Jun 8, 2012DRAWINGS: I need to prepare a plan view of a complex part, which incorporates many different (parallel) heights. In the drawing, all of these faces are parallel to the plane of the drawing itself. There are far to many of them to show their heights using section views. The usual drawing convention in this case is to simply indicate each face on the drawing, and then express its height relative to a reference plane.
Until now, I have been doing this simply by measuring a height from the part, and then indicating it on the drawing by adding leaders and text, which:
1. Is extremely laborious
2. Obviously has no intelligent link to the actual part/drawing
My breadth of knowledge in CAD is not huge, but I know that in Gibbscam, for example, after setting the position of the origin in 3 planes, if I then pass the cursor over any parallel plane in the z direction while pressing alt, I will get the distance of that plane from z=0.
What I want is the possibility in Inventor to select a face in a drawing, which is in the same plane as the drawing, and straight away be given it's height relative to a parallel reference plane. Such a value should then update intelligently on the drawing if I modify that same height on the part.
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Rotate Text On Retrieved Dimensions In Drawings
Jan 30, 2012I frequently use tolerance and fits when modelling and retreive them to use them in drawings. The text on these dimensions is always horizontal . Any time I have vertical dimension on drawings (e.g. several diameters in a stepped bore) the horizontal text takes up way too much real estate. e.g. 18.0000 g6 (17.999 17.998)
I would like to align the text to the dimension lines (i.e. text vertical in this case) In Properties Rotate is greyed out. Is there a way to keep my retrieved dims and have them aligned with the dim lines in the drawing?
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic - Add Reference Brackets To All Dimensions For A List Of Drawings
Apr 2, 2013I already have a code below that will read a bunch of drawing filenames that will go into each drawing, save the drawing, (print the drawing but I have this disabled for now,) close it, then move onto the next one.
What I want to do is add reference brackets around every dimension on each drawing. I have managed to update part list styles before using ilogic but I am not sure if it is possible with dimensions.
question = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to update multiple drawings? If so, make sure all drawings are checked out.", "Batch Drawing Update",MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,MessageBoxIcon.Question)
'set condition based on answer
If question = vbNo
Exit Sub
End If

AutoCad 2D :: Dual Dimensions / Text Offset
Jun 18, 2012I've exhausted all combinations of appearance/offset/fit/alignment in style properties.
It only happens whenever I try to adjust the position of the dimension (via middle grip). It also only happens with dual dimensions.

AutoCad :: Adding Dimensions To Drawings?
Jun 12, 2011I am using it for producing 2D drawings for some simple prototyping.
I am having trouble with two things - Adding dimensions for when I print the image. At the moment I can add dimensions using the constraint tool but I cant seem to find a way to add concise dimensions specifically for printing.
Also is there a feature or a format that I can make 2d images specifically for printing? Perhaps there is a file format?
AutoCad :: Adding Dimensions To Drawings

AutoCAD LT :: Updating Drawings - Dimensions Changing
Jul 19, 2012I am currently updating company drawings from one template to another. I am using the copy and paste method. What I am noticing is that when I copy the part and the dimension from the original drawing ( all in 3 place dimensioning) to the new template Autocad is changing the dimensions to 4 place dimensions. First question is why is this happening and second question is can it be stopped?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dual Dimension A Bend
Apr 11, 2013I cannot figure out how to dual dimension a bend like so:
DIRECTION DEGREES RIMPERIAL [RMETRIC]
e.g. DOWN 90 R1/2"[13] preferred
or DOWN 90 R1/2"[R13] okay
There should be a degree symbol after the 90 in my examples but I can't figure out how to type it here. I can get DOWN 90 R1/2"[DOWN 90 R13] but it's too long.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Editing Hatch Window Off-screen On Dual Monitors
Dec 18, 2013Info:
OS: Windows 7 Pro
CPU: AMD FX-8350 @4.2ghz
GPU: Nvidia Quadro K4000
Monitors: Dual Asus 24" 1920x1080
Memory: 16gb
GPU Control Panel: Nvidia Version 331.65 for Quadro K4000
Autodesk Platform: Product Design Suite 2014
When I section a view and edit the hatches, the 'Edit Hatch Pattern' window always opens off-screen. I have changed the settings in the GPU control panel to have everything open on the last window, but this window will not abide. I move the window to the Inventor window (monitor 2), but it will re-open back to monitor 1 in the exact same position every time.
The 'Edit Hatch Pattern' window seems to be the only window that does this in Inventor. Attached is a screen cap of the issue. The window opens in the same place each time.

AutoCAD Inventor :: STL Does Not Have Same Dimensions At IPT
