AutoCAD Inventor :: Explanation Graphic Not Going Away After Hovering Over An Icon
Jan 3, 2014
When hovering over icons, such as the “Constrain” function, the helper graphic appears over top of my product tree. After the graphic is finished playing it doesn’t go away. I can’t select anything in my tree structure that is behind the graphic and when I try to select the “I” (New, Save, Etc), I can’t select anything from that menu dropdown which is under the icon either.
I’m running Windows 8.1, and I’m using a trial version of Autodesk Inventor Pro 2014.

In previous versions of Max, if you locked an object and were in the Move command, the move icon would show up no matter where you were in the viewport. Now, even if the object is locked, it will only show up while hovering over the object. My question is, was this intentional, or is there a way to turn it on and off? For my workflow this is a highly annoying change. I work without gizmos on. I only use axis constraints and I lock everything before I move it. I can still move things from anywhere in the viewport if the selected object is locked. The problem is that I can never tell that things are locked because the way of knowing (move icon always on) is now gone. I can always look down at the lock icon, but getting used to this is proving difficult.

PSPx6 64-bit runs fine on my computer, but a few weeks ago, the shortcut icon on my desktop (installed by installer program) "defaulted" to a generic-looking "document" icon that communicates nothing. The original icon with a camera and "64-bit" in it disappeared, and I can't figure out how to get it back. Deleting the generic desktop icon and re-creating a shortcut from program files/corel/corel paintshop pro x6 (64-bit) doesn't restore the original icon either. Sounds trivial, but a dumb-looking icon in the system tray (when I have a lot of work going on) doesn't work for me find PSPx6 when I have minimized it. Plus, I wonder if the missing icon isn't sign something else is "broken" as well? (diagnosis, PSPx6 32-bit is also on this laptop, as is PSP pro x3.)

I am facing a problem here: I need to create an explanation of a 3D model (means there is x, y, and z coordinate) in 2D terms.
The base shape is something like this: [URL] ........
What I want to show is the part where the lines are joint. There is a lot of angle involved, the standard polygon angle and the dihedral angle.
What I want to show is the dihedral angle, around the joint but no lines are actually parallel to any of the axis. Therefore, how to explain properly this part to layman (contractor, client, etc).
I tried researching using the keyword "3D CAD drawing", and "3D Detail Drawing" but nothing comes to fruition.

I'm just starting to learn how to use the 3D environment in AutoCAD (2014 version). I'm following some tutorials but I'm a bit confused regarding direct input values when using the polyline command.
I've drawn a 50mm square, starting at coordinate 130,130,0 (lower left corner) using the polyline command (NOT using the Close command to complete the square). The next step then states draw a second polyline using the following input @7<45,55 to locate the first corner, then draw a 40mm square. It doesn't quite put the inner square where I'd have expected it so I wanted to tweek the command to correct any error but I haven't used the @ symbol or < sign before. What the input description means? From testing it appears to base the starting point of the inner square in relation to the outer square.

I have created a surface, when I hover over a contour on it I used to get name,style, layer, elevation. Now I get them all except elevation, I didn't change anything (not on purpose at least) in my drawings.

You know that small window that pops up when you hover the crosshair over an object? It displays color, layer, and linetype for regular objects. I was wondering if it's possible to somehow change what is displayed in this window?

I don't seem to have those options (show/hide Parent) when right clicking on folders in the tree. The way I have been organizing in LR4 is by creating a new top level folder and dragging the individual folders into that new folder (within LR).
I will be moving to a new computer soon and want to make sure the move goes well...

So when i would select a line, hover over one of the endpoints, the length and angle would be shown, as a quick dimension. for some reason that has stopped, all it does now if i select the line, hover over an endpoint the only thing it says is stretch, or lengthen.
RANT!!! (come on 2013, thats stupid, stretch and lengthen are basically the same thing, dont you think if i stretch something it would automatically lengthen something, and if i lenghtened something, it in fact would also be stretching it. and to see you replaced the simple dimensioning of that line with a pointless i wouldnt call it option. now to figure out the length i have to keep the properties file open, or i have to draw a faux line over the current one just to check its length, or literally i have to draw a dimension line.) EnD!!
What option might have been turned off? and that the new array no longer gives you a box, but you do it all through the command line. or the dynamic input. That was an AWESOME box that i do miss dearly, and no longer have the option to bring back..

I am using an ati 6950. (yes i know its not a suggested card) but it runs great other than after 20minutes to an hour worth of use it will freak out when you hover over an object and that object turns to dashed lines. The crosst hair will turn into like 50 diagonal lines and start smearing on the screen. I went in and changed to options from DASH to THICKEN on hover. This has been working for about an hour now.

I don't know, what's the correct code, for getting the name of an assembly component by selecting it in the graphic window.The user should have the ability to slect an component and Inventor will give you the name of this component (filename, Screenname or whatever )

I've customized the title-block template by changing a few of the default texts and by adding a graphic image.I know from other post here that when the new template is created and then used the graphic needs to have pointer set etc set a the time of creation of the new template, I've done all that and it works fine.
However there are two points :-
1) When a new drawing created with my template then saved as a IDW is the graphic image then embedded in that IDW or referenced each time the file is opened?
2) If I upload these IDW files, as created as above to a web site or transfer to another machine do I need that template file and image to be on that other machine and/or do I need to upload the template and graphic graphic files with that/those IDW, IPT, IAM files so that when some one else opens these IDW files that graphic is displayed?

Is there a way to insert a Ai graphic into msWord and the graphic text still be searchable in msWord? I would like the text in my Ai graphic to be searchable once the graphic is inserted in msWord. I have tried different Ai exports, but all come into msWord as pictures. Is there a way to keep the Text Layer in my Ai file searchable in msWord.

I experience heavy slowdowns and increased CPU usage of mutliple background processes (Chrome, Task Manager, Explorer, DWM and Photoshop for example) when clicking on a menu item which opens the drop-down list. The more images I have open the worse it gets.
This is on a laptop with a i7-2640M CPU, 8GB memory, SSD and NVidia GT520M videocard.
Running on Win7 Home Premium.

As I move the Selection tool over a path I see what looks like a white anchor point that moves along with the selection tool as I hover over the path, however, there are not anchors other than the beginning and ending of this path. Are these anchor points or something else?

I made a drawing where there is is a complex part dimensioned. For this part there is also a .dxf drawing of the unfold contour.
I want to add a link to this .dxf so the person on the CNC can quickly open it. But, when I display as icon I still get a the full drawing.

But is there a way to get an image icon in the project list? I have a lot of projects and descriptive names only go so far with me. A little image next to each one would jog the memory. Rather than plod through a bunch looking for the right one.

The diameter icon different when you pick up the top line and the third line?
When I used Inventor 2009, I found that problem, but 2012 still the same. Is the inventor design that way or that can be improved?

Using PS CS6, Windows 7 x64.
I was under the impression that when hovering my mouse over the document title bar, I would see a tooltip showing the full file name, including the path. This isn't happening and I'm wondering if there is a way to do this. I know I can click File > Save As, or Ctrl+Shift-S to see the full path, but hovering over the title bar would be easier. (What I am seeing now in the tool tip is the file name, % magnification and which layer I have selected. Basically, the tool tip is just showing what's in the title bar without hovering.)

Using Inventor 2012 latest SP
My Image tool icon is grayed out in Insert Panel of the IDW.
I created a sketch in the IDW & have no way to insert a graphic.I checked multiple files including a new file forma template & cannot get the Image icon to work, it's always grayed out.
Is there an option setting I need to change?
We really should have the ability to cut & paste into IDW's.

I could not see the preview of the drawing in any document of inventor. The icons shows only a box and not the drawing in miniature. The same happens with all my Autocad drawings.
