removing the material to a part.
Lets say i applied first Brass to a part and i changed to other. I wil check the properties.
Finally i want to remove the material to same part.
I have a library of blocks that I built for our company to use. We recently upgraded from 2013 to 2014 and boy did it throw our library for a loop!
There is a check box (reflectivity) that leaves the materials black when the drawing shade mode is changed to Realistic (unless you go in and uncheck the reflectivity box) and while I have figured out how to alleviate that issue (by unchecking it on our tempate and saving it) I am still having a materials issue with our blocks.
I can open the block (and turn on Realistic mode) and all the pieces have their materials like they should. I then open a new drawing and insert the same block into the drawing .. one piece is sans material.
I cannot for the life of me figure out why it's there on one drawing but it gone when inserted. The new drawing has been purged and doens't contain anything it shouldn't.

I can delete every unused material except one in the Material Editor.I am trying to make the custom Material library and somehowI have got the Material I cannot delete. URL....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI added sever materials to the Style Library and after I was done I noticed that one of the Style names had a typo in it. When I tried to "RENAME" the style it made a new style with the correct name but kept the old style with the incorrect name. I cannot get rid of the incorrect material style. There is no delete available on the "right click" menu and purging doesn't actually seem to do anything when I try to purge it.
I want to delete it from the Style Library so it no longer appears in the material list that is available. How do I do this?

I'm trying to delete a material called "Generic" from a part.. I can't delete the material (delete greyed out) I try to add another material to the document and I still can't delete the "Generic" material... I added a new material from the drop down box at the top... It says the correct material but when i open the material library dialog again it says "generic" instead of the proper material name that I selected... Is this a bug? See picture.

I have tried this below. It changes the name but doesn't update the render style.
Sub Material()Dim oassy As AssemblyDocumentSet oassy = ThisApplication.ActiveDocumentDim ocompdef As AssemblyComponentDefinitionSet ocompdef = oassy.ComponentDefinitionDim ooccurr As ComponentOccurrencesSet ooccurr = ocompdef.OccurrencesDim opartdef As ComponentDefinitionSet opartdef = ooccurr.Item(11).Definitionopartdef.Material.RenderStyle.Name = "Red"End Sub
I added a uvw map/bitmap image to the material editor. The image shows fine in the material editor but when i apply it to the object which is just a plane it doesn't show it in the viewports.
I clicked on a new material ball, clicked the box next to diffuse, selected bitmap. Opened a jpeg file of the material Im using. It showed uo on the material editor ball. Then when I apply it to my object it just turns grey.
In our part list we have a column for Material, ipt's display the material and iam's display blank expect for a few instances that display Welded Aluminum-6061(see attachment). These assemblies are all steel and not weldments. What would cause this and how can it be fixed?

Can you delete part of a fillet feature? While still keeping part of it & adding to it.
I have a fillet feature with 2 fillets to a part. One is in the wrong place.The Feature Fillett1 if you edit it, you will see what I mean.
Keep the middle one. Both fillets are 0.25" / Replace the bottom fillet to the top corner.
I would like to keep the Feature in the order it is in, if possible.
I am using Inventor 2012.
I am tryiing to "purge" a local appearance in a part. From the tools>Appearance, I want to delete the Knurled (Coarse), but the delete is greyed out.
I cleared the appearance overrides, but it is still greyed out. Here is a short video of what I have tried.
The reason I am going thru this excersice it to remove the knurl.bmp that shows up in by vault browser... watch the end of the video.
How do I delete work plane 1 from the attached part, 'test derived'?
workflow.
create a part, pattern a plane, save as 'test deriver'
create new part, derive work plane 1 from 'test deriver' sketch onto work plane 1, save as test derived
go back to 'test deriver, delete the pattern and create a new pattern, work plane 2, (i couldnt just edit it because the real life case was a series of patterns at different distances)
open part 'test derived', edit the derived part to include work plane 2, (work plane 1 doesnt exist in 'test deriver' anymore) redefine the sketch onto work plane 2
try to get rid of work plane 1 from the part?
I made a fillet earlier and then continued to work on the part. Now when I try to delete the fillet (to replace it with chamfer) Inventor gives me a box: "delete features" and the middle box can be selected which says "dependent sketches and features". If I check the box and hit ok, some of the unreleated holes and chamfers gets deleted and the fillet I wanted to delete doesn't get deleted. If I uncheck the box, different chamfers and threads dissappear, fillet I wanted to delete stays in place again and yellow box appears on the corner of the part. So what should I do to just delete the fillet and keep everything else?
View 4 Replies View RelatedCan a filter be applied to just part of clip instead of the whole clip? I mean a way to easily adjust when a filter starts during the clip and when it ends. I'm not interested in anything involving splitting a clip because you really can't try out different start and end times simply this way. I thought about doing it by adding keyframes, but the few filters I've tried can't be turned off completely and leave residual effects that can be seen.
There's an editing feature in AVS Video Converter and you add effects to a video clip on a separate timeline just below the video timeline, and it's easy to move the effect on the timeline and you can change the length of the effect by dragging the ends. Is there something similar in Videostudio?

View 1 Replies View Related1) My object scene has 5 parts. I have 3 materials. I need to render all permutations of material and part. Right now I am feeding permutations in via a script but every render takes 4 minutes. As my number of materials grows my permutations become exponential and the render time can become 85 years very fast on 1 machine. Are there any ways in which this kind of permutation rendering can be done that get around this?
2) 1 render of my scene at 600x600 takes about 4 minutes. I would like to know what I can do to get that faster from a hardware point of view. I know you can tweak the mesh to reduce polygons, reduce numbers of lights and so on. I am not interested in those, instead, I am keen to learn what are the hardware bottlenecks for max rendering. The machine is a new quad core i7, 8GB RAM. Do I need a faster graphics card/GPU?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have tested the difference between wall material take off and material part take off of the same wall.the wall consist of 20mm render, 230mm brick and 30mm tile. Both give the same result.If we join a beam with the wall however, the wall material take off will give different result than the material part take off.The wall finishes in the material part schedule are correct, the ones in the wall matrial take off are off by 53%.
Please see attached file and "unjoin" the beam to the wall to see that both quantities are the same.Interestingly, the total volume of both schedules is almost identical, it is the subdivision that is completely off.
When setting up the material take off manually the material part take off is correct.I suspect I do something wrong. 53% off is not even usable when doing concept.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI was running a simulation with success including gravity and applied loads. I was checking both stresses and deflections. Both were in line with what I was expecting. The next day I went to change a few dimensions and run it again. The stresses and deflections were significantly less than expected (I did not tweak the dimensions very much). I changed my dimensions, remeshed and ran it again. It worked fine and returned expected results. I continued in this manner tweaking the size of my box.
Finally I went for one last run.... it didn't work again. It returned the significantly less than expected results. A bit of investigating revealed that it is only applying the gravity loads during the simulation. All of the applied loads are being disregarded (however, they show up in the report as if they are being applied.) If I supress the gravity my stress and deflections return 0 values. I have tried taking my loads off and reapplying them. I have tried removing the gravity load. I have remeshed. I have inputted my loads and the gravity in different orders. I cannot get my simulation to calculate using my applied loads. It was working fine.... what happened?
I created a partial sphere with six features on the surface of the sphere. I then applied a circular pattern to each of the siz features. I called the features r1, r2, ..., r6.
r1, r2, r5 and r6 worked as expected. there are 16 features evenly spaced around the surface.
r3 and r4 are different in that the original feature is missing after applying the circular pattern.
each of the six features is as identical as I could get them. I followed the same build seauence for all of them.
each feature is made up of four objects - cut1, cut2, sweep and dimple. I selected the four objects for a row, then applied the circular pattern.
If I delete the circular pattern for r3 or r4, the original feature becomes visible again.
So, why are r3 and r4 behaving differenly than the other four?
I have tried a number of things, including re-drawing feature r3 from scratch with no change in teh results.
I have in my project a lot of video clip that I did a slip of the audio track.
If I need to delete one clip, by example in the middle of the project, the audio track corresponding is not deleted...and if I delete it manually, all the other audio track at right do not move to the left...so the audio track and the video clip are not sync anymore.
How can I correctly delete a part of my project?
I set up our company log which gets embossed on most parts as a sketch block in an .ipt. The .ipt contains nothing but the sketch block. To use it, the designer only needs to derive the Logo.ipt file into their part and then use the scale setting to set the derived block to the desired size for that part. The result is a scalable set of line geometry that can easily be used for extrusion or emboss that is standard for all users. It works beautifully, that is until you try to use it in a sheet metal part in 2012.
For some reason, when this same part, which works perfectly in normal parts, is derived into a sheet metal part an error pops up stating that, "Selected part does not have any geometry that can be derived." Say what?
I was able to find a workaround by directly copying the block into the sheet metal part, but you no longer have the ability to go back and scale it if needed. Even more strange, when the block was copied over, it could not be deleted from the new part.
Is this just a bug with 2012? Why does it work in a normal part but not sheet metal?
Dear Sir, In particular project, when I insert part in Assembly file, It is inserted as a Tube & Pipe run part. so that It is not Grounded automatically. What is the settings by which I can insert as a normal part in assembly file ? I have attached herewith the JPG file also.

I would like to simplify this assembly into one seamless part for FEM calculation:The assembly consists out of parts that, in reality, will be welded together. Due to their form, there is no way to place them exactly onto each other, therefore there are slight gaps between the parts:
Now when I try to merge the assembly into one part via "simplify" --> "create simplified part" and choose "single solid body with seams between planar faces merged", Inventor does not fill these gaps (even though it displays only one part in the bottom right corner of my window). Unfortunately, the remaining gaps brings "contact" problems in the FEM simulation.
how to close the gaps and really merge the assembly into one part?
