AutoCAD Inventor :: Embossing Text / Shape To Cone Shape Using Wrap To Face
Nov 26, 2013I want to engrave the text 'TEST' all the way around this clonal object. When I use the emboss tool, selecting the option 'wrap to face,' it gives me an error message that the "face selected is not tangent to the profile plane."
I am using a work plane that is offset from the XY plane. I included a screen shot and the file that I am using (Inv. 2014)

Mar 4, 2012I know how to do embossing in parts. I know how to work with iparts. I have not found a way to use embossing inside an ipart that will allow me to change the text on each member. We do steel rings and each one of them has the size and pressure rating embossed in it. What I'm trying to achieve is to have the embossing change according to each member automatically

Dec 18, 2012Is there any way of embossing onto
1. Multiple faces
2. surfaces that are not flat, cylindrical or conical
I have tried using the “stitch surface” command but I can’t seem to get it to select .
The surface was created using the loft command, but I don’t know how to select it as a composite surface . When I am doing the emboss. Maybe it has to be done using another method besides emboss?

Nov 22, 2013We commonly weld two half cone sections together to make a complete cone. To show the weld prep i have modeled a chamfer on the cone edges.
When i try and show the chamfer on the drawing using a section I cannot dimension the angle as the surface is viewed as a curve by Inventor.
I have attached a drawing and part file showing the problem and showing the detail I would like (I've shown the detail using a simple sketch).

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Map 3D :: Text Annotation Parallel To The Line?
Feb 2, 2011What I have is a shape files that contains the road centreline of a city I am working on. And that shape files also have a data of its road name etc.
I know how to do it as FDO (using map connect). But what I require is an autocad text entity.
I can save the map as a drawing. But what I only want is just a number of road names and they are not adjacent or near to each other so map filtering is not recommended.
So what I did, I add the shape files using map import command and added the road name data. And then, I used the command Annotation and do the "define annotation" and "insert annotation". From here, I am doing fine. I created a text/block annotation that will extract the road name on the imported centreline on the line I just selected.
Now, my problem is, all the text are in just one direction (in my case they are all horizontal). I tried playing the "rotation expression" but still without luck.
how or what "rotation expression" should I use to make the text parallel/along the centreline.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Cone Refold Adding Incorrect Surfaces
Feb 5, 2013We're seeing strange behavior on all of our workstations when using a Refold feature on a sheet metal cone. Surfaces are (very incorrectly) being added at the top and bottom openings of the cone when the Refold feature is added. The behaviour is the same whether using Contour Roll or Revolve. The surfaces dissappear when the cone is revolved to a lesser degree, such as 200 degrees instead of 359. The cone can be revolved to 360 degrees and ripped but that raises a whole nother problem because Inventor does not correctly refold a 360 ripped cone. File attached. By the way, the surface artifacts show up in the flat pattern as well.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Get Text Or Block Parallel To Particular Line
Apr 2, 2012How to get the “text” or “block” parallel to a particular line?there is more than one way to alight the text with a particular line but wondering if there might be more powerful tools to do so.
“Rotate” and “Align” are possible commands to align the text with particular line. Parallel constrain is another option to do so but will make the drawing “busy” with additional parameter.
Equally, what if I need to make a block parallel to a particular line? In this case, the “parallel constrain” doesn’t work! Just I may take the advantage of “rotate” and “align”..What I wanted to know if there is a more brilliant way to get the“text” or “block” PARALLEL to a particular line with a smart tool.
AutoCad 2D :: Text Rotation - 1 Object Was Not Parallel To Current UCS

The error I get is:1 object was not parallel to the current UCS.No valid objects selected.
I’ve tried flatten, mirror & rotate but I still can’t get the text to display correctly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Draw With Sheet Metal Rules Centric Cone
Sep 30, 2011How to draw with sheet metal rules centric cone? Ive spent hours on it and nothing, it always end up on ASM failure, or ceates the only one half( when sliced on asymetric way). This need to go in two halfs.
Ive tried:
two circles 1300 and 300, top circle centre moved from Y by 127mm on X axis.
contour roll will revolve on axis between circle centre points, than extrude something with cut and it is but the shape is an oval not circle.
Ive used loft command and slice command but only one side picke will work with flat pattern.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Parallel Threading In ILogic
Jan 31, 2013We have been experimenting with Parallel threading. The situation is that I have an assembly that contains multiple parts (approx. 40) which all have contained "almost" the same code. In order to rationalize this; we have rearranged the code in such way that we now only reference External iLogic rules form these 40 part files (only one place to revise the code if necessary).
The side effect to this rationalization has been the we have problems in executing the codes in parallel, see this simplified example:
Imports System.Threading.TasksParallel.For(1,40, Sub(h As Integer) iLogicVb.RunRule ("Part "& h &"", "iTriggerRule") End Sub)
Now all of these 40 part files try to execute their code.
'Configutation of Part filesiTrigger=iTrigger0iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Cut configuration")iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Bracing of the part")iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Parameter context")
As they all are dependent upon running the same external rules the result is that not all part files are updated according to the required design requirements. It seem as if one of the part files calls the external rule and the rule is "busy" handling another part file it just terminates without warnings or errors.
Can multiple part files run the same external rule at the same time? Is there some form of queue? I do not get any warnings or errors, the partfiles just do not update. How can I make sure that all the part files run the external rules and is there a way of checking this?
