How can I do this? A reference dimension was created by a circular pattern and it covers a circle I'm try to select.

I know you can change the line colour to the background colour but this makes the lines invisible in sketch as well.
Not being able to hide the construction is making some layouts pretty pointless since relevant detail is obscured by the construction lines. Grounding the geommetry and deleting the construcion lines isn't an option since the sketches are part of the design development and not fixed.
When I perform a feature on inventor, some yellow lines appear. How can I delete them, or change the view in order to hide them?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have made thousands of sheet metal parts and their associated drawings without issue but this time, I made a part and attempted to make a drawing but dimension lines won't attach to certain geometry in the drawing. It acts like it will until I click the second line for the dimension then it errors, telling me the same error message that comes up when you delete a feature that previously had a dimension.
I also can't place an origin for doing a hole chart, for example. It just turns purple and says it isn't attached even though it clearly is.
I have a problem with Inventor 2013. The dimension lines have disappeared. I've been through all the dimension styles and layers to make sure I hadn't turned one off
All other drawings are fine and if I create another even using the same model it works just fine but I'd rather find out why than re-do the whole drawing.
I have a template IDW that i use for bearings. When I opened it today I noticed that two of the dimension lines were missing. The dimension and arrows are there. I tried deleting them are recreating them with the same result.
The interesting thing is, when I created the dim above the part it was fine, when I dragged it below the part the lines went away. After that no matter were I moved it the lines would not reappear.
I installed SP1 a while ago and just now installed the update to SP1 (DL20857064.zip). It did not fix the problem.
We resently upgraded to Inventor 2013 and since then we have been having an issue of dimension and leader lines being hidden under a text box or some other drawing entity.
This is very confusing since the text box does not have a white out associated with it, nore is there a way to put the test box to the back and dimension lines to the front...
It seems like our puppet masters that program this amassing tool where up to something and didn't quite get there.
IT sure would be nice (or an absolute requirement) that this gets fixed so I don't have to learn new hoops to jump through to get a quality drawing out of Inventor.
I am wondering about something called a "dimbreak" command to break demension lines. I heard it has been used in AutoCad. Is it also something available to Inventor users? I can't find anything when I search for it in Inventor and I need to be able to "explode" or otherwise change my dimensions manually so I can break dimension lines as they pass over other dimension lines.

It is possible in AutoCAD I know but is it possible in Inventor ?
It shows the old position of lines after a zoom, or rotate or move, etc. And it shows half of my dimension values.
Also I seem to have some ghost projections of assembly parts when I do the assembly tutorials.
Like holes and wire frames on strange places on my screen.
I have to zoom in and out randomly and wish for it to go away at some point..
Inventor 2010 suite
If IV2010 allows hiding of the DIMENSION lines and ARROWS in an IDW files? I found a thread from 2009 that says it is impossible.
However, I found a way to hide them on some RETRIEVED dimensins, but not on others.
How to MANUALLY, or to create STYLE that hides MY choice of:
1. EXTENSION LINES,
2. DIMENSION LINES,
3. ARROWS
I have a drawing with a detail, I want to hide dimension from the big view port and show it in the detail as you can see in the picture:
I use Annotative dimension.
I'm inserting dimensions and the tics keep coming out huge and not on the dimension line, in fact there's one on either side 20 ft out. If I change the drawing scale in the tab at a the bottom the tics get smaller and closer in, but they are still off the dimension string by a long shot.

When I draw porches with railings, I often spend many minutes trimming out the objects behind the railing. So if my metal top rail is 1" thick (running horiz) and my vertical rails are 1" wide, 5" on center, I have to trim out all the lines inside those 1" rails.
I received an Autocad file from another designer not too long ago that had some sort of clear fill inside his rails, so the rails hid what was behind it (but it was not colored fill, black or white, or whatever... it matched the background color). If I erased the rail, the window behind it was there in it's entirety.
I tried to 'erase' the fill, but it does not seem to be there. I am so tired of spending 20-30 minutes per house just trimming out the doors and windows behind.
I am using acad2010, with medium expertise. I want to hide some part of lines so as to indicate the part is behind some object. I don't want to break the line as I need to create separate sketches for the same, or needs to list for the properties.
Refer attached drawing, fig 1 shows the actual model and fig 2 shows how I required when i print it.
Why does my new lines all show their vertices, even if they arent selected? I dont want the vertices to show when the lines isnt selected.

I'm working with floor plans from another company, the drawing contains xref for the floor plans and other blocks. I need to label some of our equipment. I'm simply using a DTEXT label inside a rectangle as a block with the text as an atribute.
I'd like to place the label on the floor plan and have it hide anything underneath. I do this with 3D blocks for other work, but I'm looking for a quick and dirty solution.

Now when I apply this linetype in the drawing, the lines always have a small, line before and after the characters. Actually you see this: -AAAA- . How can I delete or hide the start and end lines.

Is there any way to dimension a bent lines?i would like to be able to have just one total dimension of these two lines instead of measuring each line.in my type of work it is not necessary to show dimension of each segment, but would be nice to at least show a total dimension instead.
