I'm the first one in my office to start using Inventor - I've gotten mine set up how I like it with our company standards and templates.
How can I transfer all of the customizations from my PC to the several new Inventor users in my office?
Is there a way for Inventor to pull things off of the network instead of off of my hard drive to keep all of our systems uniform?
How do I tranfer all my standard autocad variable settings into a new version of Architecture? I have my dimensioning settings, etc set a certain way in my standard autocad and now I want to start using Architecture but need all my old settings.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on creating a customized content center for my company. I am having a problem with one of the CC parts. My process of operation is as follows. Change project file to default. Make sure Library View is on Merged View. Then I select the part that I need. RC copy to our project file. Revise the Part Numbers to match our part numbers then ok. Go to place in an assembly drawing and as soon as you click on the part Inventor crashes. It seems to be only on particular part. All of the other items I have place (over 50 or more) into our customized content center work fine, but not this one.
It seems that whenever I set a key column to be "Part Number" it crashes. If I have any other key columns selected (minus part number column) it works fine. I've also tried creating my own column that says part number and when that one is selected it still crashes. The part that I am having an issue with is the Slotted Hex Head Machine Screw - Inch. Also we are still running 2010 with service pack 4 I do believe.
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?
Inventor 2013 Pro
Whenever I customize some keyboard commands, they always seem to reset after I close and re-open Inventor. I'm not quite sure how I could be missing something. I've gotten very use to these commands in previous versions. Once I setup my commands, I am able to use them for the session.

I created a customized frame profile and want to publish it to the library. However the error message shows that "You d not have a Read/Write library configured......". I went to the project (default project) to change library to "Read/Write" and open the file to publish again. The error message is still the same.

I have created Customized Materials in Inventor 2013.When I try to apply customized material to part it is showing different result for Drop Down list and for Material Browser.
1. Picture showing appearance of part for Wood Pine from Material Browser.
2. Same Material I tried from drop down list showing following result (Customized library has checked it is in active form)
I need do a customized TXT file create with some data the Part List and some data from Sheet.
Our ERP software read this TXT and register the Assemby in our database.
The final TXT result must be like red lines below:
C 100000-GS-005 100000-GS-005 5 Conjunto placas CJ
E 100000-GS-005 100000-GS-056 01
E 100000-GS-005 100000-GS-055 01
The columns where each text starts must be column 1, column 3, column 18, column 33, column 71.
Letter "C" means that this line is an Assembly
Letter "E" means that is a part.
Number "5" in the first line not change.
The number "01" in the lines 2 and 3, means the quantity of each part on the assembly.
I have recently modified the CC of a part family so that different materials for the same part can be chosen. When I exit the editor and place the component I can see the choice of the materials in the dialog box - no problems (See 1st attachment" But when I go to another users PC they cannot see any of the new materials in the "Place content center" dialog box!?!
For information, we are running Inv. 2011 with Vault Professional 2012
The CC libraries are stored on the server and we have one custom library to which I have publish the modified part family.
The custom CC has been fully synchronised with the Vault server.
The materials.xml containing the new materials used in the part family has been downloaded to the users local workspace.

I have been asked to do a workshop away from our offices and have been issued with a laptop.
My only issue is that I would like to copy all my settings, workspaces (including toolbars), plotter settings and drawing template files (.dwt) files from my desktop to the laptop.
I have a user who will be moving to a new Windows 7 computer, for which I have installed AutoCad Civil 3D 2012. They would like it so that all of their settings and preferences are copied over from their current version of AutoCad Civili 3D 2008. Currently the user has windows XP professional.
how to do this as I am unfamiliar with AutoCad.
I recently moved a user to a new PC and setup AutoCAD 2011 after resetting the license through the helpdesk. All works well, however when the user opens her drawings created in the old installation, all the fonts are too big and possibly the wrong type. There are other installations in the office which open the same files/drawings and the fonts/tect appears perfect.
So the question is, how do I transfer the settings from an existing installation, or better yet, how do I specifiy the default font for all drawings?
I would like to copy the settings of Profile1 & Profile2 in bands from one ProfileView to another ProfilView.
I succeed to read Id (and name) for each ProfilViewBandItem form the source ProfileView, then I select the target ProfileView.
I open it in Write mode, and for each ProfileViewBandItem, I replace the Profile1Id and Profile2Id by good Id, but when I commit transaction nothing appears, the profilview is not updated, bands stay with their original settings.
How can I force the ProfileView to be updated after assigning new Id for Profile 1 & 2?

I just recently reformated my computer and I've been having an issue with copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop. Before I could copy a 2"x2" vector box from Illustrator into photoshop making a new document and the size and resolution would match. That is the new document would say 2"x2" at 300 ppi in photoshop and the preset would read "clipboard". I would then hit ok and paste and it would match perfectly. Now since I've reformated, photoshop always creates a new document with the wrong size regardless of the settings I enter in Illustrator or photoshop. I have document raster and effects set at 300 ppi in Illustrator and I have the new document set at 300 in photoshop, but it always transfers the 2"x2" box at 72 dpi regardless of settings. Again this used to work before so I'm assuming there is some setting I forgot about.
The main issue is the clipboard preset is not matching the document size, its almost as if Illustartor is telling photoshop it's a different resolution when it's not. Copying to 72 ppi seems to have no issue, which makes me think Illustrator just isn't sending it out at 300 ppi, but I don't know why as I have the document set at 300 ppi. I confirmed this as I can make a 2"x2" box in photoshop and paste into Illustrator and it reads as 2"x2" at 300 ppi in Illustrator, but if I copy from Illustrator back to photoshop it pastes it at 72 ppi. Changing the settings to 300 ppi in Illustrator seems to have no effect. Might be a bug. Should I try reinstalling?
My issue is that I have a number of presets-brushes, tools, actions, workspace setup, etc, that allow me to have speed and focus on getting the job done. I also work with a wacom tablet, and although that is 3rd party, I need know that photoshop is set up to maximize the brush sensitivity of the tablet.
Is there a way for me to export my settings from one machine to another? And a way for them to revert back to thier own after I finish?
I recently had to remove some sensor dust spots from three bracketed images I was using for HDR. I used the "Makeover" tool on each image. I understand that in Lightroom, you can copy setting like this from one image to others. That would save a lot of time rather than removing the spots from each individual image.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an action that creates an adjustment layer (curves) which stops and prompts you to load the saved curves file.
If I double click that step to edit, I can load the "saved" curves file and it will run flawlessly. BUT...if I move the curves file or share this action with someone, the action will no longer function since the saved path is incorrect.
Is there any way to open up the saved curves file and just write that into the action? There are a lot of settings and I would have a very hard time recreating the curves adjustment from scratch.
I have corrected my saturation on a photo in the Develop module and would like to copy that saturation to other photos. I click 'copy' in the lower left and get the dialog to select my choice of settings, so I only check saturation. I then move to my desired recipient image and click 'paste' and nothing happens. Same result in Library module when I use Photo > Develop Settings > Copy Settings and Paste Settings.
I am using LR 5.3 on Windows Pro 7
Recently upgraded to LR 4.1.The copy and paste settings and also synchronize setttings in LR 4.1 has stopped working. Rebooted, nothing new added.
View 14 Replies View RelatedFor example you take 2 shots of a model, but with slightly different position, it sucks having to redraw a whole new brush on the next photo. Would be great to be able to sync then just drag the brush pin into place. Like how you can with the radial fand ND filter. And it would be awesome to be able to copy the settings of one, and the paste them onto another pin on another area or another photo.Right now its so time consuming having to sync brush adjustments, erase them, then repaint where I want the same settings applied to a different part of another picture.
Second, need to be able to select multiple or all pins, to be able to move them at the same time. Same for for the ND, radial, spot healing pins.
Third, we need to be able to copy brush settings via right clicking the pin, as well as maybe in the brush panel at the top so its something like like:

I have a bunch of Fuji X-T1 raw images that I have converted to DNG form. Once Lightroom supports X-T1 raw images directly, I would like to replace the DNG files by the corresponding raw files (which I have saved) without having to redo all of my edits.
I've tried an experiment with a NEF file, which Lightroom supports: If I convert it to a DNG file, import the DNG file, then replace the DNG file with the corresponding NEF file, Lightroom still thinks the file is named DNG. This behavior makes me nervous. So what I would like to do is to import all of the Fuji raw files, then transfer the develop settings from each DNG file to the corresponding raw file, then finally archive and delete the DNG files.
Is there any way to do this other than by hand? That is, if I have a folder with a few hundred DNG files, is there any way to tell Lightroom to take the develop settings of every file in the folder and transfer them to the correspondingly named file in the folder of raw files?
way of accomplishing this that does not involve copying and pasting the data for every image by hand?
I have been working on a file in photoshop cs5 that had come from lightroom 5.3. This was then saved (automatically becomes tiff file in Lightroom). I then wanted to make some more adjustments to it in lightroom (using local adjustment clarity). I then tried to copy the settings of the adjustment brush from the tiff to the original raw file. This is where it gets very strange. The adjustments are copied but they are rotated ccw by 90 degrees! I can replicate this every time.
View 22 Replies View RelatedOnly just noticed this one since upgrading from LR4 Beta to LR4. First session developing a few shots taken over the weekend (.CR2 RAW files). When I only have a few shots, all taken in the same environment, I tend to just get the first one right and then Copy the Develop settings, and paste them onto each subsequent shot.
What happens on my 64 bit Windows 7 box - the first time I paste the settings to any shot, I get the task bar appear at the top right, which after a brief time changes to 'task completed' - but no settings have been pasted. If I then paste the settings it works the second time.
Lightroom 5.2 I have been trieing to copy and paste settings from one .dng file into the next in the develop module. I tried to copy (shift command c) the color temperature and tint and paste in the other file (shift command v) but nor Kelvin nor green magenta balance changes.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHappens every year. Upgrade and spend half a day or more trying to get everything back to the way I had it. All I have is a couple small toolbars for commands that are several clicks deep in the ribbons and I want them "right there" all the time.
I thought Autodesk 360 might be a good tool for this. All it did was DOWNLOAD some old settings and destroy one of the toolbars I'd created. They really need an override in there to specify upload, download, overwrite or don't.
I'm trying to migrate (I guess that's the technical term) my settings from 2013 Mechanical to 2014 Mechanical. It's probably too late already, after 360 did its deal, but I really want to get this down so we don't go through it every year anymore.
I maintain that PTC had this part of it down Pro/ENGINEER. You had a config file that was editable plain text.
