AutoCAD Inventor :: Option In Drawing Mode To Exclude Parts From Section View

Feb 1, 2012

Is there an option in drawing mode to exclude certain parts from a section view.

According to ASME Y14.3 parts such as shafts, keys bolts and nuts should be excluded in sectional view. Its not just removing the Hatching, the part has to show completely.

The closest I found in Inventor is that you can exclude Standard parts from being sectioned. Some of my parts are not in the standard library.

I would like to have the option to choose which parts I want to section and which ones I don't.

AutoCAD Inventor :: View Tab Returning To End Section Mode

Jul 18, 2012

I use the "view" tab to create a half section view of an assembly.  This works fine, but if I try to measure anything, move or select a component, or export image to a .jpg then it automatically returns back to "end section view" mode.  

Without the ability to operate in a section view the it is impossible to constrain components that are placed deep inside of other components. This make this view function useless except for just looking at it on the screen.  This worked in 2012 and will not in 2013.  How do I correct this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Parts Excluded In Section View

Sep 16, 2013

I often do section views in my 3D model (not drawing) to visually check interference, etc. I noticed today that some parts are excluded from this and do not get sectioned. I'm sure it's an easy fix but a search turned up nothing. How do I include/exclude specific parts from this view?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Section View And Visibility Of Browser Parts

Sep 5, 2012

I have a section view of an assembly. The parts of the assembly that are completely remove via the section no longer show up in the browser. Is there a way to make them show back up in the browser and/or section view? They are internal to the assembly and I would like them not sectioned/removed from the view.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Include / Exclude Imates From Two Parts And 1 Whole Part

Nov 15, 2013

I want to exclude imates from two parts and 1 whole part at the same time.

This is my situation:

PartA with 2 sets of imates(for constrains on 3 axis for no movement) on the right side. Set A and set B.
PartB with 2 sets of imates, one on the left side set A and one on the right side, set C.
PartC with 2 sets of imates on the left side. Set B and set C.

i want, in a iPart, part A connected with part C connection with iMate set B. And in the same ipart i want Part A, B and C connected respectively with iMate sets A,C

So in the first situation i want iMates A and C and part B to be suppressed and in the second i want iMate set B to be suppressed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing View - Display Option Defaults?

Apr 30, 2010

I cannot find any information anywhere on whether there exists an option to save different defaults to the Place Views>Base Drawing View>Display Options tab? The parts I model always need "tangent edges" shown to look correctly on my drawings, and for 5 years I've had to manually select it every time I do a drawing. It just seems that there has GOT to be a way to get rid of this tedious step? And if there is not, can you plainly include this in the documentation so I can stop looking for such a feature?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Section View Preview As Uncut In Drawing

Jul 12, 2012

I've just started to do some work with Inventor 2013 and I noticed that, when creating a section view in a drawing, the preview is always uncut and shaded. Even when creating a partial section, the preview shows the full, shaded assembly. I tried playing with the "Section View Preview as Uncut" setting in Application Options, but this doesn't seem to do anything.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Control Visibility Of Parts In Drawing View

Sep 16, 2011

I'm creating a small product configurator using ilogic. It all works fine, but i've i challenge:controlling the visibility of the components in a drawing view

In simple words, every occurrence of my assembly has an custom Ipropertie calles "Positie". there where 4 values (Bodem, Zij, Kop, Deksel and Overig)In a drawing view i only want to see the parts that has a specific value of the ipropertie "Positie".I found a sample code for VBA, but I cann't get it worked in ilogic.:

Sub HideSecond()
'Assumes you have an open drawing
'Assumes that view 1 of the active sheet is an assembly
'Turns off visibility of assembly's second component in open drawing's first view
[code]....

hind to turn this into ilogic and add the option to check the ipropertie to turn on the visibility

AutoCAD Inventor :: Turn Off Active Factory Member Option When Placing A Drawing View?

Feb 20, 2013

I create a drawing of an iPart, while doing so I have the iPart model open in the background. When placing a view on the drawing the active factory member is the default option, I have a bad memory so forget to tell Inventor that actually I would like to use a specific iPart member in this particular drawing view. I then spend a long time laying out and dimensioning the drawing. When complete, I create a second sheet and copy all information from sheet 1 onto sheet 2. I then double click on the main drawing view and change the model state to an alternative factory member. At this point I realise that the drawing on sheet one is based on the active factory member and start swearing.

The result of changing to a different member when the existing drawing is based on the active member is that ALL DIMENSIONS DISSAPEAR FROM THE DRAWING AND HAVE TO BE PAINSTAKINGLY REPLACED. At this point I will usually REDRAW SHEET 1 so that further sheets can be created quickly in the future by selecting an alternative factory member.

can I change the software defaults somewhere in the setup to prevent the 'active factory member' being displayed as an option in the first place?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hidden Lines Of Specific Parts In Assembly Drawing View

Oct 24, 2011

Is there a way of using Ilogic to make hidden lines of specific parts in an assembly drawing view visible? If a part with hidden lines showing is suppressed and then unsuppressed the hidden line option becomes unchecked, therefore I need a way of rechecking this option through code?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Exclude Drawing Sheet From DWF When Check-in

Aug 31, 2013

I am using Inventor 2012 64 bit with Win 7.

We have a lot of drawing that has some extra sheet for ref. and Inventor let me exclude count and print from those extra sheet. This work fine but when we check-in the drawing to vault it update or publish all sheet to dwf. This is very compass for us because we full the dwf file from vault to release and the sheet count is different than the print out.

Is there a way to EXCLUDE those sheet when check-in or update dwf?

AutoCAD Inventor :: IDW View / Parts List Changes From Structured To Parts Only

May 3, 2013

IV 2010 Suite

Been working over an idw MANY times due to project lag.Today I opened it up and tried adding balloons to an already ballooned assembly.

The parts list has not changed, and is "structured".But, if I try adding balloons, they tag each part, not the entire assembly.

Also, I verified this by trying to add another parts list, which defaults to "parts only".

I can't show my data set, b/c it's HUGE, plus it's proprietary.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Section View As Isometric View

Oct 29, 2013

I have a long shaft with parts mounted on. i want to section it and show the parts. i don't need to show the whole length of the shaft.

I know i can crop the isometric view, but this way i will not see the key hole which is on the other side, it's hidden.

If i make a section it 's in an orthogonal view only.

I want to make the section view, but later to transform the sectioned view to an isometry. is it possible?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Display Density Of Materials Assigned To Various Parts In Parts List On Drawing?

Dec 9, 2013

Is there a way to display the density of materials that are assigned to varius parts in the parts list on a drawing?  I don't need the mass of the parts I just need the material density to show up next to their respective parts.

For example, if I have a part with [steel mild] material assinged to it (no matter the size) I need a column in the BOM on the drawing to show: 490.684 lbs/ft^3.  "Worry when there's something to worry about."
