AutoCAD Inventor :: Content Centre Isn't Logged In

Oct 18, 2011

All options relating to the content centre seem to have disappeared. When i try and add a structural shape via manage tab / author - I get the following message Structural Shape Library cannot be found or Content Centre isnt logged in, please check it and try again. i have checked the active project and it includes the content centre location. Also in an Assembly I do not have the option of placing from content centre.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Content Centre Files

Jul 5, 2012

We have just updated to Inventor 2013 (from 12) and none of our models which contain BSi libraries are working. I understand BSi is within 'Other' CC library.

I have tried copying the idcl files from 2012 CC libraries into  into 2013 but Inventor 2013 is not recognizing them. Within the 'update libraries' dialogue box the are listed in red and 'not available'

I've been floundering around for a few days now trying various fixes from the net without success.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Access Content Centre

Nov 21, 2013

For a while now whenever I open a new assembly the default is place from content centre, I use the drop-down and select place.

Today I needed place from content centre and it just doesn't come up.

It is loaded/automatic in the addins.

If I open my projects, in the bottom right corner where I would usually click to acess my installed libraries, I click but it does nothing!

I also noticed studio and BIM are greyed out, but I have started to play with Showcase so not really a problem. I need to set up a read/write library soon, so it's going to be a problem.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Export Content Centre Favourites

Aug 13, 2013

Is it possible to export content centre favourites?

I have a number of parts marked as favourites from our custom CC library. I have created folders and sub folders for the various items, nuts, bolts, washer, steel sections and piping parts and would ideally like to be able to export the setup in much the same way as exporting the 'Application Options' out to a XML file. This can then be imported into other machines creating a list of favourites for all users.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Content Centre Bolt Description?

Dec 12, 2012

I want to change the description of a bolt to be "M(bolt size) bolt. then add the length in another column. example M10 bolt.

I want to know if it is possible to do this using the Family Properties & changing the "Family Description" to something like M=<NND> BOLT. i have tried but had no luck as it only comes back with "M Bolt" & no diameter 

Any other way to make it populate a BOM easily.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create A Flat Bar Family In Content Centre

AutoCAD Inventor :: Custom Content Centre Library Appears Empty?

Jul 25, 2010

I typically use basic ISO fastners in conjunction with the bolted connection generator. Just now I have discovered the ability to add a custom library to the content centre. This appears fantastic as I no longer have to sift through the 10 - 30 or so items available in each category to complete my bolted connection.

However I am experiencing a delima

I have created a custom library called "My Favourites" and it contains 6 bolt families, 1 spring & flat washer family and 1 nut family. All families are derived from the ISO standard (bar the spring washer which is DIN 128) and all thread pitches for the respective nut and bolt connection(s) match.

The problem I am experiencing is when I execute the bolted connection command I can add the bolt, 2 flats and 1 spring washer yet when I come to close the connection with a nut the nut selection box is empty?

I have the active project configured with "My Favourites" "Inventor Feature" & "Inventor Routed Systems" as the only in use libraries. Secondly, I have verified the existance of the nut(s) in "My Favourites" in the Content Centre Editor.

I am using Inventor 2010 updated to SP3 on a standalone machine, running Windows 7 Ultimate (w/ latest updates)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Content Centre Prompted Filename And Part Number

Nov 8, 2011

Create a Content Center Part that prompts for a file name and sets the Part Number to whatever I save the part as? It would also be nice to... Have the browser Display name the same as the saved filename.

If I have a standard part with a blank filename, inventor will make the part number equal the filename at the first save. It is this functionality that I require when using Custom Content parts.

E.G. If I have a length of 'RHS 200x100x6.3 - 2000mm' selected from content centre and I want the filename to be saved as 'Part-001', then I would like the Part Number to be set as 'Part-001'.

If I then place the same member in another project/assembly I may want to call it 'ProjectPart-100', where the part number would then be 'ProjectPart-100' and so on.

This method ignores the filename entry in the Ipart table.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Custom Content Centre Shapes And Frame Generator?

Oct 16, 2012

I have been trying to add my own shapes to the Content Centre, with some success, but for being able to use them in Frame Generator. I was able to Author a new part and publish it to Structural Shapes and it works very well. However when I try to use it in Frame Generator there is an issue that I do not understand. Frame Generator recognises the family and all of the different sizes and materials, but when it come to inserting the part, i get the following message:

I am not sure what this means. The part family is in my own library in a seperate category. I don't know what/where template file needs to be and is that the same ipt file that I used to create the Content Centre part/shape? Do I need to create a new Standard rather than "attaching" it to the AS Standard?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic Assembly Component Occurrence Definition?

Sep 28, 2012

I have a simple code below trying to iterate through all the assembly component and copy the iProperties > Occurrece Name (i.e. "Part1:1") and paste it to iProperties > Project tab > Part Number field for each individual part in assembly.

' set a reference to the assembly component definintion.
' This assumes an assembly document is open.
Dim oAsmCompDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition
oAsmCompDef = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition

'Iterate through all of the occurrences
Dim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrence
For Each oOccurrence In oAsmCompDef.Occurrences
Dim oName As String
oName = oOccurrence.Name
iProperties.Value(oOccurrence.Name, "Project", "Part Number") = oName
MessageBox.Show(oOccurrence.Name, "iLogic")
Next 

The Debug message shows the correct output for every iteration, but when I check each part's properties they all have the Occurrence Name of the last part in the aseembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Changing Location Of Design Data / Templates And Content Centre

Mar 15, 2012

I have 45 PCs running Autodesk Inventor 2011 in a student PC lab.  We have since set up Vault Server and I need to change the location that these point at.The files that I need to edit can be got to by:

1.    Open Autodesk Inventor
2.    Click “Pro”
3.    Click “Options”
4.    Click the “File” tab
5.    I need to edit the following: Default templates, Design Data (Styles, etc) and Default Content Centre files.  
6.    The above three will be pointed to a server that has vault setup on it (\vault emplates, etc).

Now to clarify, Inventor works, I do not need assistance activating it, and I do not need assistance with group policy to set up the install..I need to be able to modify the above with group policy through either the registry (if possible) or some other method.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Parameters In Part Occurrence Inside Assembly

Sep 5, 2013

I have an assembly which contains a CComPtr<ComponentOccurrence> pThisCompOcc , and I'd like to do two things.
 
Get the name of the "base" object, not the display name of the occurence Change the model and user parameter values of the occurrence I suspect that I need to find the function or method which gives me a CComPtr<PartComponentDefinition> pPartCompDef which the occurrence points to for the Q1, but what about Q2?

Presumably the parameters are associated with the Component Occurrence and the "real" name is associated with the Part Component Definition?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Transform Occurrence To Match Another Occurrence's UCS

Aug 9, 2012

Basically I want to place parts and have them automatically connect to each other based on pre-existing UCSs on the assemblies.  I have a 'ucs_in' and a 'ucs_out' on each assembly.  I want the inserted component to perform a transformation to make the new occurrence's ucs_in to "mate" to the previous occurrences ucs_out.  By mate I mean their center points are at the same location and all axes are pointing in the same direction.  I have included screenshots to show what I'm working with and what I am trying to accomplish.  I have also attached the project files.

Below is my attempt at the code to do this.  My experience with transformations is limited so I may be way off from where I need to be.
 
Sub UcsMate() Dim doc As AssemblyDocument Set doc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument 'assuming both occurrences are already in the assembly and both have 2 UCS, "ucs_in" and "ucs_out" Dim occ1 As ComponentOccurrence Dim

[Code]....

AutoCAD Inventor :: Occurrence Visibility Of Sub Occurrence

Aug 22, 2013

From a main assembly I am trying to change the visibility of occurence that are in a sub assembly. But everytime I change the visibility using the designviewrepresentation.setvisibilityofoccurrences(), that change the visibility of those occurrences in the other sub-assembly. Of course, if I do it thought the interface that works great. Anyone did something with changing visibility of sub component.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Why Access To Content Center Available In Assembly Environment

May 7, 2013

Why is access to the Content Center only available in the Assembly Environment?

Surely I can't be the only one that could benefit from access to the library when creating a single tube or beam or angle bracket etc..in the part environment.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Find Content Center Items In Assembly

Mar 20, 2012

When my colleague opens one of my assembly's which has content center items in it his inventor cannot find them and vice versa. I am assuming my content center items are coming from my hard drive and not a server from the same place as him. How do you set it up so both our computers take content items from the same location?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Participate In Assembly Sections On Content Center Parts

Jan 22, 2013

A thing I bump in to everytime is that Content Center parts do not standard section in Assemblies and Drawings.

In the Drawings I can menage this by selecting the parts in browser or drawing views and get them sectioned or not.

In Assemblies there is the option to select "Participate in Assembly and Drawing sections" in the Document Settings.

Unfortunately this doesn't work on Content Center parts. Why not?

After searching the site, I noticed the "solution" to check the "Section All Parts" option in the Application options.

This solution is a work around. It only solves the issue when you want to section all parts.

But what if I want to section a few parts and not all?

For example, I do want to section my beams, pipes, tubes etc., but do not want to section my bolts, nuts, washers etc.

I thought that was wat the "Participate in Assembly and Drawing sections" option was for.

Currently working with Inventor 2012

AutoCAD Inventor :: Placing Content Center Parts At Assembly Origin 2012

Mar 14, 2012

I have just installed Inventor 2012 and am experiencing a bizarre problem with placing content center parts.  When I start a new assembly, and place a content center part, I would expect it to locate itself central to the assembly origin.  What actually happens is that it grounds itself wherever I click on the screen.  This doesn't happen with parts that I have created myself.

Is there a bug in the system or maybe an option that I have unknowingly switched off?
