AutoCAD Inventor :: Migration Deactivates Current Window
Sep 25, 2013
I am currently doing a migration of files to 2014. During the migration, does windows active window you are working in deactivate while the Task Scheduler is running? Trying to type an email got a bit annoying. Minimizing the Task Scheduler will only work some of the time.

Could you tell me or give me a link to the procedure to migrate the materials library. I have a materials library that I created in 2012 and I would like to migrate it to 2013.

We recently upgraded from 2012 to 2013.I set up a task in Task Scheduler to migrate one of our working folders to migrate to the new version.When I open a part or any other file from that migrated folder and save it I get the attached message.
The message states the file has been migrated. Why do I need this messge? Or has the file been migrated?

I am looking at moving from controlling my Styles in template files into a Style Library. So how exactly would I best do this? Create a new Style Library in the Style Library Manager, set it in "Style Library 1" (this makes the new Style Library "active", yes?), open my template files, and under the Manage tab, "Save" the document styles to the new Style Library? Should I then delete my Document Styles from the template?
When you get a new release of Inventor, how do you generally go about pushing your Style Library into the new release? Do you just copy-paste the old Style Library from the old release "Design Data" folder into the new release "Design Data" folder? Do you start a new Style Library in the new release, compare to the old Style Library, and push the old into into the new?

We've finally nibbled the bullet and upgraded to 2014. I'm getting errors in the Task Scheduler logs about missing files in various projects. It would appear that (almost) without exception, the failed files are all Content Center parts that were inserted as custom parts. Do I need to run a migration on the Content Center parts (Inventor/ContentCenter Files/R2013/en-US) in order for the custom parts to migrate properly?

Using 2011.
I have lists of Documents I am altering and saving automatically in a loop, The problem is that if the file needs to be migrated you get a dialog box in your face for every file in the list. How can I temporarally turn the dialog off?
ThisApplication.SaveOptions.PromptSaveForMigration = False
Does not do it.

I have had numerous problems trying to print from 2014 using the setting "Visible portion of current window". This feature was never that good, anyway, but now it seems to be WAY worse. I'm spending 5-10 minutes to just send something to the printer that should only take 5 seconds.
See the attached images of what I see on screen, the print dialog boxes and then what I actually get. The "Center" option doesn't function properly and now I must manually adjust the margins to print what I see on the screen.

Before using the quick selection tool, I am able to smoothly zoom in and out by holding Ctrl+Space and dragging with the mouse.If I use the quick selection tool, however, the marching ants line turns into a strange box. I no longer am able to zoom smoothly but instead with the technique above I draw a rectangle which I zoom into. This indicates to me, that OpenGL has been deactivated. I want my smooth zoom back!
I noticed that the preferences always show OpenGL as active, no matter which of the above "state" I'm in. I tried updating my AMD graphics card's driver without success. I found a post describing similar OpenGL problems on the same graphics card and installed the linked driver; the post was 2 years old, but it worked. Re-installing more recent version (Catalyst-Version 12.6) brought the problem back. Newer versions of the driver seem all to suffer from the same problem.
I'm using Windows 7 64-bit,64-bit Photoshop Extended from CS5 Production Premium,AMD Radeon HD 4600 (currrently Catalyst-Version 13.1).
I tried: "Downgrading" the driver (only really old version worked, as mentioned above),reseting Photoshops preferences (Ctrl+Alt+Shift at start),deactivating OpenGL (reactivating only works after restart and problem reappears) but I miss the smooth zoom.

Is there any way to open a new window of your model that is not inside the main window of inventor?
I have two monitors and would like to be able to have another window / view open on the other monitor.

how can i know if the current view/display is align with the current ucs?
let's say i have rotate the ucs about z axis 45 degrees and make it plan now i draw some things and then i change back to world
worlducs = 1
viewdir = 0,0,1
ucsxdir = 1,0,0
ucsydir = 0,1,0
but the display is still in the ucs z 45 (ucsfollow = 0) set the view to PLAN current (now the view is aligned) but the system vars does not change.
For a plan UCS, you would need to compare the VIEWDIR system variable and the cross product of the UCSXDIR and UCSYDIR system varaibles.

Is there a macro/script/deisel that will automatically print a pdf (cute pdf autocad lt 2007) to current plot settings in current drawing directory and give it the current drawing view name and number? Disk space not a problem these days and would save time to have a pdf copy of all drawing tabs readily stored in the directory ready for issue.

Technique that can check the current plotter name for the current tab and assign it to a variable? i.e. can it be assigned to a variable to check if if equals "myplotter1". The next step - is there a technique to change the plotter name to "myplotter2.pc3".
I have partially done the latter part of this in the past using the -plot command line to ASSIGN a new plotter but I would really like to only run the routine if it really needs to.

I have a problem concerning the frame generator skeleton. When I try to save my assembly with its frame.iam and skeleton.ipt, I can't save it. The save window says that the skeleton is not the current version.
In the folder where the skeleton file is saved, two skeleton ipt files are appearing, one "skeleton.ipt and one "skeleton.newver.ipt"
I'm working with Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012, in combination with Autodesk Vault 2012.

I have a script which currently references ThisApplication.ActiveDocument which is fine if you are in the top level assembly. But when I go into a sub-assembly to edit it, I would like the script to get the name of the sub-assembly.
So is there a simple way to get the name of the sub-assembly you are currently editing?

During design development dimensions get modified a lot. E.g. shorten something by 25mm I just edit the feature dimension by tagging on "-25" in the edit dimension box. If lots of modifications are made the dimension gets messy since all the edits are saved (e.g. 150 mm - 25 mm +1 mm -5 mm). In sketch mode, I just retype the shown dimension, but for other features like offset work planes, extrusion depth, etc, the actual value isn't even shown anywhere. Is there any easy way to replace the formula with the current dimension value without having to measure the feature?
Basically, I like being able to use the dimension entry box as my calculator, but more often then not, don't want the calculation history saved.

we are planning to migrate from windows xp to windows 7 64 bit. Is there are chance to deploy a migration script to backup the user settings from xp and import them to windows 7. Copying the files from %appdata% is not a good solution because if the program was never started before the Autocad product will start a repair for user settings and so the files and settings are deleted.
I need a method for more than 100 pcs so using the implemented export and import tool is not possible.

I have 1 Next button that is used on the timeline. Each position has a pause then a play so there is only 1 button. I need to get the label info so I know where I am so I can save the location of the timeline that the user was at if they exited before they finished the process.

I'm having problems getting Inventor to dimension using the current view option on an assembly. I ungrounded the assembly and constrained it to the angled work planes that I needed so I have to use the current view option, but when I try to dimension to the intersection of the angles, it won't give me a dimension.I'm using Inventor 2011.

I'd like to create a filedialog that points to the IntitialDirectory property location. Not the current project.
It doesn't look like the filedialog object uses the InitialDirectory property at all.

I'm trying to find a macro that will insert text into a certain spot on my drawing. I want to put it on a button so that when I click the button it inserts "REVISION - 12/5/12", or whatever the current date is, into my title block.

When calling the Camera.SaveAsBitmap method and specifying a background color, should it reset the background color of the current view? Calling it in 2014 does this.
Also is there a way to apply the camera settings without changing the current view? I want to change the camera settings but just save the images to a file?

I have just upgraded from C3D 2011 to C3D 2013. I know it should be simple to copy my custom CUI file from one release to another, but somehow I'm missing it. In 2013, I open Workspace/Customize, then swith to the Transfer tab (right sofar?). In the pull down, I choose Open. Now at this point, I think I should just browse for my 2011 CUI file, but for some reason, I can't find it. If I search my C drive, I still can't find it. With 2011 open, in Workspace, the name of the CUI that I use is "Randy", so I'm assuming the file name to search for would be randy.cui.

change copyright year in field text (through edit definition) in title block.
Our titleblocks have a copyright year statement that needs updating everytime a new year comes around.
Currently we select the titleblock, edit definition, edit text, and make the change. Currently reads "2012 (company B) CORPORATION"

I am having an issue with saving our own dwg file in inventor 2014 & 2014.
When I open a new one of our dwg template files and try to say I get an error that says
"the current operation requires data from document 'xxx' but it cannot be found"
This doesnt happen when trying to save an inventor dwg template file and it has only happened since releases 2013 & 2014. If I open one of our files that was created before release 2013 I can save these with no problem.
I was hoping the issue would resolve itself when upgrading to 2014, but It hasnt, so it must be in a setting that I migrated across.
We have other users using 2013 and are not experiencing the same problem. In fact if they save one of our template files on their machine I am then able to open and save it on my machine!

Age old question; Title Block Creation.
I took an existing title block out of another document and pasted it into my 'standard.idw' file, modified it, made it the default title block and it looks pretty good. Problem is, having saved the 'standard.idw' file it saved it under a project header and now everytime I open said new drawing I get the error that it is not part of my existing project. Obviously.
Is there a way to create this file, with my new title block and not get this error, supress or have it projectless?
Also, with that in mind my other problem, which I am sure is related, is that I put an image in my title block, which gives me e error that my picture is not located in the current project. Currently I bypass that one by hitting skip and it still retains my image, which is fine.
These two things together are slight annoying but I can live with it until I deduce a way to kill these errors.

I would like to express my dismay at hearing that exchange content is being migrated to "social networks". While I have no problem with this, per se, this will restrict access for the majority of users who cannot access Twitter, Facebook and Youtube at work which is when they are likely to need the content most.
As a matter of interest how many of you have access to these networks at work (from your laptop/PC not via smartphones, tablet devices etc).
