AutoCAD Inventor :: Glass Appearance Not Transparent
Aug 24, 2012I'm having trouble finding or creating an 'appearance' that actually looks like glass. Each of the appearances in the Inventor library and Autodesk libraries are milky and not very transparent at all. I'd like to find or create a material that is almost 100% clear, but reflects the environment.
The transparency slider scales from 0-100% but the results are more like 0-75%.Inventor Studio looks just as bad.I've got to believe that it's not impossible to do without Showcase or 3DS Max.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Error In Extrusion
Oct 4, 2013What's wrong with extrusion 15?
I deleted many features since the file was large, and many features got warnings, but extrusion 15 was the only one with warning in the original file.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Add Extrusion On Assembly
Aug 16, 2012I wanted to add an extrusion to an asembly. I was able to highlight the required geometry and create the feature, but is not showing up. In the browser, there's a red "up arrow" beside it. Why is it not showing?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Extrusion To Update
Oct 27, 2012First off if I update a sketch block in a derived part, how do I get the sketch blocks to update? Do I have to delete derived item, and rederive it?
Also if I modify a sketch block that is used for a extrusion, how do I get the extrusion to update? Do I have to delete extrusion and rextrude?
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Add Solids To Cut Extrusion
Apr 12, 2013I have a multibodied part (roughly 700 parts) and I need to do a cut extrusion. The problem is that when I'm cutting through a hundred or more solids I might miss one if it's close to the edge. I though, no problem I'll just go back to the extrusion command and add those solids I missed. Problem, the program only lets me select one solid and undoes all I had previously.

May 17, 2013I cut a curved profile using extrusion and mirrored it about the original plane. But It doesn't cut thoroughly ? there is still a surface of the rarer side of the part ?
the original extrude cut was "Through All".When do the same cut gving a distance...it mirrors perfectly..
AutoCAD Inventor :: Hiding Extrusion (cut) In Assembly
May 17, 2012I am working on detailing an assembly that requires two parts to be bolted together and then have a hole bored through both parts. I want to show the assembly without the bore and then with the bore. I do not want to have to create a derived part. There should be a way of toggling this extrusion in the assembly view, but I have not yet found it.

Jul 20, 2013In sketches i can see the names of the dimensions, the parameters, but if i have a few extrusions, can i know which parameter governs the height of the extrusion only according to their content?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Lines Do Not Connect For Extrusion
Jun 9, 2012All of a sudden, my line tool in sketch mode does not connect segment to segment and each individual line can be dragged wherever. This also means I cannot extrude any shapes I make because inventor does not realize the series of line segments create a closed shape. This happens across all part files, old and new.

Jun 25, 2013We've got a lot of pipe added from CC then manually edited the extrusion length (D2) while modeling (not using tube and pipe). Now I want to get pipe lengths from the BOM. Currently the BOM gives the PL parameter as length, which is incorrect.
I know I can rename D2 and mark it as an exported parameter and add that to the BOM.
I think I could also make PL equal to D2 which would also solve the problem.
Both of these solutions would require opening and editing hundreds of parts, taking a LONG time.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Limitation To Length Of Extrusion?
Jan 9, 2013We design long overland conveyors that can be kilometers long. In two separate instances, I have extruded a profile along a path that is a few hundred meters long with no problem. However, when the path gets to around 700 meters, the extrusion that worked fine at 600 meters simply falls apart. Does Inventor seriously have a limitation to length of an extrusion?

Sep 16, 2011I design press tools. Is there any ways in inventor 2012, where I can have only one common sketch in zero height and extrude profiles in different heights. Like plate no 1 @100 to 120mm (in vertical axis. A 20mm thick plate placed at 100mm above zero plane.) and plate no 2 in 150 to 175mm height and so on.

Apr 10, 2012I have a sketch for a 1.125" tall bounding wall. The inside contour is projected, and the outside contour is offset .125." When I extrude the desired profile, the inside corners, which are project radii, turn inside out. I don't know how else to explain it. I will attach before/after screen shots.
I reboot my PC at lunch because I was getting other odd errors, lots o' C++ runtime joys. That was some two hours ago, and I had a slew of errors/crashes after that around one. Now, no error messages, but this interesting occasion.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Edit Extrusion - Ok Button Greyed Out
Oct 15, 2012Whenever 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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Selecting Solids With Certain Extrusion Features
Apr 22, 2013When I try to select several solids for an extrusion cut/interference I can do so fairly quickly by selecting all of them in the browser so long as the extrusion is set to "all" or "distance".
For some reason when I need to do a "to" or "between" I have to select them one at a time. Every time I select a solid the select solids options returns to the input so that I have to select one solid then press the "Solids" button and select another one. This tends to do the same thing if I create an extrusion and then want to later modify the solids taking part in the extrusion. Is there an option I can turn off?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Multiple Extrusion Depths On Same Part
Nov 28, 2013Inventor 2014. I have watched everything I can find and read many entries on related messages.
I create a part by creating rectangle on the XY of 90mm centered on 0,0. I add fillets on 3mm on all four corners. I then add two circles centered on 0,0 of diameters 45 mm and 41mm. What I would like to do is extrude the area between 41 mm and 45 mm circles to 10 mm and the rest of the rectangle outside of the circle 45 mm circle to 6 mm. The center of the part from center to the 41 mm circle is void or open.
I have read two solutions that use a "share sketch" function, that I can't find by right-clicking as indicated in the write-up.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Negative Extrusion Refuses To Stick?
Aug 23, 2013I have a model in which we want to make lighter than the prototype turned out to be. In order to acomplish this i am removing a chunk of the metal in the lid(images attatched. I have completed the sketch seen in red and extruded it to prove that the loop is complete but when I try to reverse the extrusioni to cut from the lid dragging down the arrow as an example, it turns the effected area a darker red than normaly seen when you cut something. When I let go of the left mouse button it pops back up to the original surface having no effect and refuses to go benieth it and when I apply I get the error seen at the bottom of the attatched image. I do this sort of cutting often instead of digging down to the root sketch then dealing with the ripple effect of the changes we want to make.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Apply Extrusion To All Solid Bodies All Of Time API
Mar 21, 2013I'm creating a template part to line the inside of a wall with wall boards. All the boards are drawn as an array of seperate solid bodies which are to be made into components once the windows and appertures have been extruded out.
The problem is when the wall changes to a shorter length and then back again. the solids are re-created and the extrusion e.g. Window1 does not have the new solids in it's effected solids list, so I get an error.
Is there a way to set the extrusions "effected solids" (Not sure if that's the correct term) to all the solids all the time through iLogic or the API?
AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Pull Value From Extrusion Dimension Without Rename
May 30, 2013I am trying to find a way to have iLogic code that looks at a part with only one extrusion, such as bar stock or angle stock and automatically export the length to iProperties. As per the request of the other engineers however, this code cannot be based on a common renamed parameter. Also, since no one draws things the same exact way, it can't be based off of a common dimension parameter either. At least not in terms of d0,d1..etc.
Is there such thing as a code similar to variable=standard.extrusionextentslength that I can imbed within an if then that would pull this information from the model?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Calculate Area Of Extrusion Without User Parameters?
