AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 - Added New Engineering Note And It Doesn't Show Up In Browser

Oct 27, 2011

In my part, there was already an existing Engineering note.

I wanted to add another note.  I added my new note, but it does not show up in the browser. I can right click on the note note > Display note and both notes are shown in the engineering notebook.  When I exit out of the notebook and go back to Inventor, still not there.  Here is a short video of what I am seeing.

[URL].  The "Rev B" noteis the original one and Note 2 is the one that I just added.

Now I if I add another note, then all of them will show up in the browser.  This is not the first time that I have seen this, but just thought I would bring this up.

This part was just made with a copy design from Vault.  What is weird, is that if I go to the part that this was copied from and add the note, it shows up correctly then.  Its like something is getting hosed in the copy design process.

When would you use squared and non squared pixels?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Point Elevations Unit To Show In Millimeters?

Apr 6, 2012

We have conducted a 6" x 6" grid survey of a building's finished floor and the client has requested the output drawing of the point file survey to be shown in Millimeters. The Point Label style in Civil 3D 2009 only has the option to show Meters which isnt precise enough for the clients wants. I am using the metric template in autocad Civil 3D and all units are set to metric.

Is there a way to change you point label to show Millimeters?

I am using Civil 3D, Update 3

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Note Label Show In Original And Dragged Location

May 9, 2012

I have note labels in one drawing. An Elevation style that list the elevation of the insertion point. The label texts are dragged to new locations. When I xref this drawing in to another. The label text shows at both the insertion points and the dragged locations. What's going on??

I've made sure the labels aren't duplicated on another layer. If I change the layer of the dragged text and do an Xlist in the drawing they're xrefed in to. The dragged text list on the layer I've change it to. The text in the original position lists on layer 0, which is the default layer for creation.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Sheet To Use Millimeters Instead Of Inches?

May 3, 2012

I have Autodesk Inventor on a student license, and I use the metric system.

I've been able to change the settings for parts, presentations and assemblies to use millimeters, but for some reason the drawing sheets still use inches.

How do I change the unit settings for drawing sheets?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Add Box Around Note Number?

Nov 21, 2013

I am creating a drawing that has some 40+ notes on it. Maybe half of these notes need to have a square, squircle, or some shape around them so I can later use that same shape enclosed number to point to a feature on the drawing that it is referencing. In the past when I had fewer notes I would just use the user symbols and losely place the squircle number in line with the other text and then use that same squircle number to point to the desired feature. The problem it is hard to align everything properly and if I move the text I then need to move the squircles.

In Pro/E I remember being able to type "@[1@]" and it would create a box around 1 in the text. Is there anything similar in Inventor?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Wrong Thread Depth In The Note?

Jul 15, 2013

In the drawing, i annotate a thread. the automatic text for thread depth is always, as far as i see, incorrect, for example if the thread depth is 50 it writes, i don't remeber, but something like 250.

Maybe it has to do with the font, altough i doubt. i am in israel, and the quantity of threads, also an automatic text, is written backwards, for example 4x instead of x4.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole Note Not Updating In Drawings

Sep 27, 2012

I create a hole feature in part and use Hole and Thread function in drawing view. All info displayed correctly, but if the model changes - note does not! the only way to get the new thread/hole designation is by using the Hole and Thread function again.

see print screen attached - I kept changing the model and using Hole and Thread tool couple of times. They all point to the same hole but look at the results..

Reboot does not work...

AutoCAD Inventor :: K-Factor Note On Drawing Using ILogic

Jun 7, 2012

Any way, using iLogic, to get the K-Factor from a flat pattern sheet metal view on an idw drawing and add it as a note.

I'd like a rule that would access the flat pattern on the drawing, get the K-Factor value and then create a note that says, for example, "K-Factor Value = 44".

I see in the iLogic Snippets there's a Get Active KFactor under the Sheet Metal section, but I don't know where to start.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Limit / Fit In Hole Note Call Out?

May 10, 2012

Is it possible to get a Limit/Fit tolerance included in a Hole Note call out, such as H7 etc?

Currently, when I am dimensioning Counter Bore holes, I have to use a general dimension for CBore dia incuding the Limit/Fit tolerance and manually add the hole dia (or visa versa). This means I have to manually update any changes to hole dia.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 SP1 Hole Note Quantity Error

Jan 7, 2012

I've attached a sample part & drawing of a hollow cylinder with 6 equally spaced radial holes drilled around it.

If you change the depth of the hole you will get a different quantity of holes in the drawing hole note.

I get a hole note quantity of 6 holes which is correct if I set the hole depth to 1".  Change the hole depth to 2" and the hole note quantity shown changes to 5.  Change the hole depth to 3" and the hole note quantity changes to 4.

I often draw bushings with radial holes like this and have to take care to not let this behavior create a wrong drawing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Note Text Boundary Overlapping Drawing Views

Sep 20, 2012

Is there any way to control the priority of what information Inventor displays "on top" in a drawing when you have two elements that overlap?

My specific situation is I have a text note whose boundary (where the text 'box' would be if that was turned on) overlaps a detail of a section view and seems to be preventing the display of the hatch layer in one of my section views.

I have attached 3 pictures to show this problem. The pictures show the section view in 3 slightly different positions relative to the text box. I selected the text box before taking the screen capture so you can reference the green "handles" to know where the boundary of the text box would be. Notice how the hatching of the welds, flanges, and pipe as well as a portion of the extension line and arrow for the 3/16 dimension are 'covered' by the boundary of the text box.

Is there a way to control the priority in which different layers are displayed, or is there a function similar to the "Bring Forward/Send Backward" options in Microsoft Word?

FYI, I am running Inventor 2013 RTM build 138.

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 :: Printing Drawing - Squared Print Error

Nov 26, 2013

Strange issue when printing a drawing. For some reason whenever I send this drawing to print the 'squared' symbols get replaced with either some overlapping numbers or the letter E.

Unfortunately I can't take a photo of the result but I'll provide an image of what I'm trying to print.

Plotting as a .pdf works fine (print preview also looks fine) and is the current work-around but it would be good to get a proper solution because it's likely these will be printed again from AC in the future and we'll forget and the client will get a stodgy drawing and I'll be sad.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011- Changing Engineering Note Doesn't Prompt Save

May 23, 2012

Working in a assembly and just edited an existing note in the Engineering notebook. Clicked the "X" to close the assembly.... what? no prompt to save the file?

Just checked adding a note to a ipt and it doesn't dirty the file either, so if you only add a new engineering note, you have to save it, cause it won't prompt you before closing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Correct Total LOD Assembly Mass In View Label Or Note

Jun 14, 2012

I am trying to get the correct total mass of a particular assy variant in a view label. I am trying to avoid using I-Assemblies due to the length of time it takes to set up and inevitable fudging of parts lists with phantom parts when things go awry. Anyway, to get around that clumbsiness, I use a combination of suppresed parts, assembly Level of detail (LOD) and View representations to switch parts on and off for various assembly variants of a theme (which works fine for me). see my "Mass of LOD's.jpg" attachment which should fully explain the parts list filtering and what I WISH to achieve. My objective is to get the correct MASS per Level of Assy and View Rep (both called the same) to be automated, correctly (as per LOD/VIEW REP), ideally, in the view label or in a leader note. I reckon I was able to do this way back in MDT? Any enhancement in Inventor 2013?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Export Information Stated In Tailing Note Box From All Welding Symbols?

it's possible to export informations stated in "tailing note box" from all welding symbols? The reason why I'd like to do it...it's because each weld in the drawing has his own number and I'd like to be able to work with these weld numbers in MS excel. It means I'd like to be able to export all the weld numbers and also to change these weld numbers in the drawing via MS excel.
