I'd like to use an "NPT" Hole Dialog thread but it doesn't show up in the Thread type list.But it does show up in the Thread Dialog/Specifications Tab/ Thread type list so it's available.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Bend Part Doesn't Work With Thread Feature Present

Oct 31, 2012

I've attached an example of a workflow we use to make different instances of products.part1 gets assembled in assembly1 which then gets derived in part2 to receive a bend.We use assembly1 in one place and part2 in another.(this is a simplified example, made with IV2013 SP1.1)

In part1, if you add the thread feature, the "bend part" feature in part2 fails after updating.This also happens if you try to add a "bend part" to part1 AFTER the thread feature, if the bend is present beforehand it does work.

Having the bend before the thread feature in part1 doesn't work with our workflow, because we need the assembly1 to be straight.In short, the thread feature is causing problems with "bend part".

I can't say if this problem was present in previous versions or even in the previous service pack since we don't use this workflow that often, especially with threaded parts, but i hope this can get fixed with a hotfix.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Get Hole Notes From IDW?

Aug 9, 2013

I am working on some VB code to reterive the dimensions fron an IDW and put  them on an excel spreadsheet for an Inspection report. I found some code to which gets the linear dimensions and have added tolerance type and tolerance bands.

I have been unable to get the hole notes off the IDW. Got the general notes to work with the following

Dim invDrawNotes As Inventor.DrawingNotes
Dim invActDrawNotes As Inventor.DrawingNote
Set invDrawNotes = invActSHT.DrawingNotes

AutoCAD Inventor :: Thread Feature Not Displayed In Hole Table

Nov 29, 2012

Yesterday I tried to make a table-driven I-feature of a few drilling paterns.

I want to use this for drawing steel manifolds. The I-feature is used to insert standard drilling paterns, for example a patern to fit a standard flange.

The only problem is, for the thread I used the thread feature, otherwise it doesn't show up in the I-feature.

But when I make a drawing of a part were this I-feature is used, the specification of the thread doesn't show up when I create a hole table, because in the I-feature, the thread is a separate feature.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole And Thread Dimensions As Inspection Dimension?

Mar 1, 2013

I'm adding in inspection dimensions for a PPAP submission drawing and have found that I cannot set hole and thread dimensions as inspection dimensions. I'm quite surprised to find that this option isn't available. Is it there, just hidden, or is it really not available to me?

To the top right of this picture is the inspection dimension I want and to the left the thread dimension which I can't get into this format.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Thread Holes With Thread Tool

Mar 1, 2011

I can drill a hole as needed, but can't thread a hole at all. Not with the Tapped Hole function when drilling the hole, or after drilling the hole then using the Thread Tool. Inventor will just not let me create threads this way outside of cutting a coil.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole Note Doesn't Update After Change Part

Nov 28, 2012

Using 2013 sp1.1...After I change the hole size in the part, the callout in my hole note does not update. (crazy, I know).

If I pull a new hole note after the change, it has the correct dimension. But, if I change the hole size again, this new hole note does not update.I put the part on a new idw and it updates correctly, so somehow the idw is hosed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketched Symbol Insert Doesn't Recognize Center Of Hole?

We've got a sketched symbol that locates to the center of holes on a part.Problem is, the symbol either doesn't recognize the hole's center and even if it does, the center of the symbol (the designated insertion point) jumps to the edge of the hole.I've even recreated the symbol and I get the same effect.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Adding A Thread To The Thread.xls?

Jun 13, 2013

I am trying to add a thread class to the thread.xls. (that part is ok)

The thread is M26x2.0

I can't seem to find any information for me to simply plug in the values into the .xls, so I am thinking that I have to crunch some numbers. which is fine. I just want to make sure that this image below is the correct the reference for this task.

using the pitch, I should be able to calculate all my min and max values, but the xls has class column and a tap drill column, how would I determine these values??

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole Table On Converted Solid Work File

Apr 26, 2013

What is the best way to get a hole table on a converted SW file.  Our Engineers use Solid works and I can easily import the file but when I try to create the  hole table in the IDW file it comes up blank.

Do  I need to recreate all the holes so they are native to Inventor? or I am missing a conversion setting.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole Table Formatting - Different Text Depending On The Type Of Hole

Nov 6, 2012

I've got a template with a set of Object defaults for an Inch drawing and a set for a Metric drawing.  I've just noticed that within my metric set, if I insert a hole table with tapped holes, the font on the tapped holes doesn't match the other hole types.  I'm searched around, but all the settings for the hole table style reference the same text style.  (Please see the attached image.)

So is there a way to set a certain hole type to have a certain font or size within a hole table?  Because if there is, I'd obviously like to remove it.....  But I can't seem to figure out where the issue is.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ultimate 2013 - Cannot Add Hole To Existing Hole Chart

May 22, 2012

I am trying to add a hole to an existing hole chart.  I drop the part into a new drawing, set the ordinate "zero", and add a hole chart by selecting a few holes.  When I attempt to edit the chart: click chart, right click "edit", click add hole, select new holes, right click to create, the "create" selection is greyed out and all I have to choose from is cancel. I searched the forum here but could not find a reference to this a know issue.  Am I doing something wrong or is this a glitch of 2013. 

We are running win7 x64 machines and this happens on both the 2013 Ultimate and Premium editions of the product.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Select Hole Edges When Creating Hole Table

Nov 19, 2012

I have had this problem intermittently for a few weeks since going to Inventor 2013 SP1.1.  I have a part within an assembly and that part has holes created in it before assembling it with other parts.  Now when I try and create a hole table in a drawing of the assembly I cannot select hole edges and the hole table is blank when trying to create it automatically from view selection.  I originally thought it may be an alignment issue but I have since aligned everything correctly and it still persists.  I can create the hole table if I import in just the part into the drawing but it will not allow me to create the table on the whole assembly. 

I can also create the hole table if I use "centred pattern" and create cross hairs on all of the holes however it does not give me correct annotations for the holes as shown in attachment and I can manually change the annotations but seriously this should not be required.  As shown in the screen shot it reads as A1 down to K1 instead of A1 to A10. .

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Does Style Setting Plan Readability Work For General Notes

Mar 15, 2013

Does the Style setting Plan Readability work for General Notes? I've been thinking we should use notes for all our text so that they react the same as all the other Civil 3D labels. But they don't seem to. They scale correctly but stay parallel to the UCS.

I've tried this in a fresh drawing from a simple template and from an OOTB template. They never rotate in a layout. Is this the normal behavior or am I missing a setting? This is how I have it set in my style:
