AutoCAD Inventor :: IV2013 SP1 Forgetting Keyboard Customizations?
Jan 14, 2013
I notice a bunch of my keyboard commands no longer work. Not ALL of them. Some of them stayed. At first I'm thinking that it's no big deal. I've exported my Customizations to an XML file and I can just re-import them., right?
So I did that. And yes, what I had saved in that file came back in. However, *SOME* defaults were returned at some point, so I still had to go line by line and scrub some things out to make them work. For example, I use "D" for general dimension in the drawing environment. But if the default setup had "DV" for detail view, "D" doesn't work because it's now an ambiguous entry. What a pain.
1. What's the deal with elimination of this bug?
2. Is there a way to wipe all the keyboard commands prior to importing my own XML file so I don't have to manually scrub out other stuff?

I get the above now and again when going into the manage tab. Closing and restarting Inventor will sort it but it's a bit tiresome.

My copy of Inventor 2014 will not remember the customizations I perform to the ribbon. I simply added the PDF command to the Drawing/Vault/ ribbon, and when I save and close properly and reopen, the customization is gone. It did remember all my custom keyboard commands, just not the ribbon command.

I'm using CS3 (fully updated) and just recently I'm finding that it seems to forget my settings I have made in Colour Settings and Preferences sections. It doesn't happen all the time - just once every few days or so.

Like most virulent PS users, I have my own pet shortcuts. Prior to CS6 I saved them in a "new set" and specified that set as the shortcuts to use with no problem. With CS6 I save the shortcuts, they work, and a day or so later, they are not longer there. I recreate them, they work and in a day or so they disappear.

Our IT department ran a patch on our CAD station that corrupted AutoCAD and now it won't run and I need to re-install. I did not do the original installation or customization.
Q1: Will my customizations be preserved when I re-install over an existing installation?
Q2: If not, is there a simple way to preserve the customization by saving the .cuix file and custom blocks? If so, are there any other files that need to be saved as well?

Is there a way to change the background color of the lay out tabs different than what AutoCAD offers in the uniform background choice? I have a hard time telling what tabs I have selected to publish when I have it set to white. I really would like to keep the background white and not have to change it to black. When I have it set as black it is very obvious which tabs are selected. Is there a way to keep the uniform background on the layouts as white but the background on the layout tabs show as black when selected rather than the same color as the layout background.

We recently installed Civil 3D on our computers. Some people started working in regular AutoCAD first rather than changing the workspace in Civil 3D. They have customized their ribbons. Is there a way we can copy those customizations and apply them to the 2D Drafting & Annotation workspace in Civil 3D?

I need to load a hotfix for my autocad civil 3d how do you do the following
Before applying this update, make sure that any customizations made to the user profile (such as, customizations made to the support file search paths, print file customizations, printer support file paths, redirections, custom template settings, and so on) are exported to a secure location, then imported and reapplied after the update has been successfully installed.

Came into work today to find my Illustrator CC has defaulted back to factory settings - keyboard shortcuts, workspace/panel setup, etc - all defaulted. Not only that, but the individual files I might use to revert back to my settings are gone.
Then I'm suddenly asked via a pop-up to log into my Adobe ID so as to validate my Illustrator CC. Again. Then, I find, for some reason I'm logged out of the Adobe Creative Cloud program. So I log in, hoping that'll do something.
Now I must re-do 100% of the customizations I've made to Illustrator's interface.

I was thinking my menus and toolbars customizations were storage in:
C:Users...DocumentsCorel PaintShop Pro14.0
I had copied all content of this folder to restore after have formatted my computer. But menus and toolbars weren't restored when I replace all the content of this folder.
So, I lost all my customizations. Where they are storage? What should be the folder to be backed up in order to recovery menus and toolbars customizations in new PSP installs?

I'd like to know if there are shortcuts for select views of the ViewCube. For example if I press alt+t I see the top view. This for all views of the cube. I also use Blender3d, it has shortcuts for views and it's very useful.

I am having a problem with Inventor Factory Design 2013 holding my settings for style and my customized keyboard shortcuts. Every time I close inventor I have to go back and re-import my settings for idw's and parts.

Noticed Keyboard shortcuts not working from time to time in Inv 2011? It's ultimately frustrating because I cannot figure out what is causing the issue. Some times restarting Inventor or opening the keyboard shortcuts customize window works and sometimes it doesn't. Standard default shortcuts like "ctrl + p" for printing and custom shortcuts I have added both don't function in Inv. but work just fine in other programs.
Another undesired problem is after rebooting our machines the Project file is switched back to default.

I want to set a keyboard shortcut for toggling the visibility of User Work Planes in 2013. I can't seem to find a way to do it. I am able to find it in 2012. Has this been removed from the customize menu in 2013? See attaced pic

This is the particular setting we've setup for iProperties that worked fine in 2012:
Here's what it looks like when you actually type the letter:
Anything else I should check settings-wise that may be causing this?

If I set a keyboard shortcut for a macro, it will function properly until the session is closed. When Inventor is opened again, the shortcut will not be on the keyboard customization list. So far, all shortcuts for regular Inventor functions, and even Add-Ins, will stay present when the session is closed and opened. I've been able to reproduce this on a co-worker's computer, so I don't believe it is an issue related to my system.
Edit: Forgot to add, using Inventor 2012

I have keyboard commands set up for exporting my .idw drawings to .pdf format (PD for me.) I would also like to set this up for exporting my drawing to .dxf format. I think this can be done with a macro that can be activated by a keyboard command, but I could be wrong. I don't want to do this with an iLogic.

I have some macros that change different layers on/off and have them set to numbers keys 1-6. Works the first time but after a restart they dont work anymore. Even if i change them to any other un-used key they stop working after the restart. The remain listed in the customize screen but dont do anything until i edit and re-tick the box.
I have other macros on other keys and don't think i did anything different when i setup these ones.

I have just noticed that while in Isometric view I can Pan an item in the window by pressing the arrow keys on a keyboard. One thing however is that to pan to the right side of the screen I have to press left arrow key. It is sort of pressing the "wrong" key to get the model slide to the "right" direction.

I want to run a macro from a keyboard shortcut like I have been doing in the last several releases of Inventor. I can set the shortcut and it works. If I close/restart Inventor, the shortcut is lost.

I have a user who is disabled. He can only use a mouse and cannot use a keyboard. For keyboard inputs, he uses the On-Screen Keyboard built-in to Windows 7. He has used many versions of Autodesk Inventor... since 2010.
Normally, the On-Screen Keyboard will always "stay on top" of all other programs and windows. With Inventor 2012, the On-Screen Keyboard disappears when you press certain buttons in Inventor. In my screencast, the On-Screen Keyboard disappears when you complete an Extrude function and also when you Fillet. I've also seen it disappear when during a Chamfer, but this is not in the screencast.
This is extremely annoying for a user who can only use a mouse, as he has to constantly bring back the On-Screen Keyboard by click on the taskbar icon. It's also inconsistent with what Autodesk did in the past with previous versions of Inventor.
This is a screencast of Inventor 2012 w/ SP1 and demonstrates the disappearing On-Screen Keyboard [URL]

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 am currently running Inventor 2009 64-bit SP2 and periodically (and only recently), I have had the problem of my keyboard keys not displaying what I am typing. This is only affecting Inventor and no other program to my knowledge. To make matters worse, it happens absolutely randomly. In fact, it happened just 4 minutes ago, which prompted this post! I was typing some words out and in the middle of the word, it changed what the inputted keys were. To give an example, the letter P comes in as L. The letter S, comes in as the letter G. The letter M comes in as semicolon. Catch my drift? At first I thought it changed to a Dvorak key setting, but even if that were the case (which it is not), why would it do it randomly?
