AutoCAD Inventor :: Rendering Animations - 30 Seconds Limit?

Jun 3, 2009

I have prepared an animation which is 50 seconds long. Now, i just want to render that animation, but i couldn't.

The problem is that if i select "Entire Animation" option for the time range, and click the "Render" button, i obtain just an image rendered (1 frame) and if i try to write the time range manually by selecting the "Specified Time Range" option, i've realized that it is not allowed to specify a value greater than 30 secs. When i write "30.1" for instance, the forecolor of the input box turns red, and a message appears if i click the "Render" button, saying "Invalid Expression!"

"Help" says, "You can adjust any value in the input box.", however.

I've solved the problem by making two seperate animations and merging them by using an other video editing software, but i didn't satisfy the topic. Is there a limitation due to "something" or am i doing something wrong?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Freezes For Few Seconds Every 30-60 Seconds?

May 28, 2012

Autocad freezes for a few seconds every 30-60 seconds. it did this on my previous full autocad 2011 and now on 2012. i have also had a reinstall. it also does it on the other users computers in the office and also those on LT.

the freeze is rondom. it can be triggered by commands, escape button, panning arround the drawing. The problem occurs periodically for say 1 day every few days autocad will have pauses. But other days its fast with no problems.

i have tried all the usual things for slow down. purge, audit, layerdlgmode. I do not think it is general slow down.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Alternatives To Studio For Animations And Renderings

Apr 10, 2013

I would like to animate and render a 30 second video of something similar to the attached assembly. I have been using Inventor Studio to apply animations to the components, render them as full frame AVI (800 MB files), and compress them with Sony Vegas Pro free trial (~120 MB).

The attached assembly is a simplified example and took me around three hours to model, constraints, animate, and render from scratch. Normally, the boxes are constantly starting and stopping and moving at different velocities. Defining distances and times is cumbersome especially since I need to be aware of the boxes' positions relative to each other so they do not appear to move at different speeds or overlap.

I think a solid modeling program might not be the best tool to animate loose components sitting on a conveyor belt. Inventor slows down and occasionally crashes when I get up to 40 or 50 boxes stopping and starting and moving at different velocities. I am inclined to think that 10 or 15 animated conveyor belts moving boxes with a coefficient of friction would be near impossible on my machine (modeling the belts similar to a track on a tank or a chain and sprocket, also constantly starting and stopping and moving at different velocities).

I haven't played with Showcase, 3ds Max Design, or Navisworks Simulate. Would it be worthwhile to try any of these to animate and generate videos?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Render Animations - Undo File Size Exceeded

Nov 5, 2012

I am trying to render animations and I am still getting the "Undo file size exceeded" message in the middle of my animation. I have tried every option I could find to get it to stop but it keeps happening. Some of the animations take over an hour and I don't want to sit in front of the computer waiting to click ok to increase the file size.

I've maxed out the size in the settings at 4096K but it still gives me the message at 2048 and 3072.

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 :: 2010 - Limit Component Movement When Constraining?

Feb 13, 2013

Why is it that when you create the first constraint between any two components, the secondary component moves not only to satisfy the constraint, but also in ways that have nothing to do with the constraint.   This is not occasional behavior, it happens every time.

I always have to stop and move the secondary component back out of the way to get to the other features I need to reference to continue.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Why Does Enabling Constraint Limit Cause Parent Assemblies To Be Edited

Oct 3, 2013

Parent assemblies of the one being edited in place report being changed when a constraint limit is enabled. To reproduce, open Assembly3 (attached) and edit Assembly1 as shown.

Run the following code (also attached).
 
static void Main(){Inventor.Application application = Marshal.GetActiveObject("Inventor.Application") as Inventor.Application;ApplicationEvents events = application.ApplicationEvents;events.OnDocumentChange += OnDocumentChange;AssemblyComponentDefinition assembly = ((AssemblyDocument)application.ActiveEditDocument).ComponentDefinition;ComponentOccurrence component1

[Code] .....

 The following is written to the console.

Document changed : kShapeEditCmdType : kBefore : Assembly1.iamDocument changed : kShapeEditCmdType : kAfter : Assembly1.iamBefore enable constraint limitDocument changed : kShapeEditCmdType : kBefore : Assembly1.iamDocument changed :

AutoCAD Inventor :: Translating When Rendering

Nov 28, 2011

Translating when rendering only seems to use 1 cpu core and takes 90% of the render time, so having a quad core processor running a view that takes 10 min render only gives me a 5% decrease in time over a dual core...

I don't think you can really call Inventor rendering a multi core app?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Not Rendering Simple Sketch

Oct 10, 2013

I have downloaded Inventor 14, and the program appears to start up without problems.  However, when i create a simple sketch, it first says "Choose a plane".  In my textbook, it shows a picture of the three planes to choose from.  However, my computer screen shows a blank gray screen.  It appears some tool bars are missing as well.

However, if i click in the space where I imagine the axis should be, it takes me into sketch mode. Similarly, when I draw a line, the information bar reads like I am drawing a line, but no line shows up on the screen.

Is there a specific requirement on my computer I could be missing?  I have downloaded Inventor twice, and both times had the same problem with the program.  Perhaps a video card I need to have, or a certain RAM requirement?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rendering Sketches With Images

Jul 23, 2012

I am trying to render some images and video of a design I've been working on.
This isn't an absolute necessity, but I would like to have my companys product and logo displayed on the monitor in the design. If you look at the screenshot what I'm trying to describe should come clear.

These images were just dropped into a sketch on the face of these two monitors.

When I go to render, the sketch image does not appear. It just renders the default face color of the part.

Is there something I'm missing?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Work Surfaces Visible During Rendering

Oct 18, 2013

I'm using inventor studio for the first time(Inventor 2014 / Windows 7). I'm having some trouble with work surfaces showing up in my rendering. The surfaces are set with the visibility turned off. When I'm in my normal assembly window, they're invisible. They're even invisible while im in studio, setting up lights & such. They only show up on my renders. If i go into each part and suppress them they render ok. Problem is I have sketch geometry and constraints that crash when they're suppressed, so I really need them as active, but invisible.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rendering IAM File In Showcase 2012

Nov 1, 2011

I have a question regarding display problems when I import my Inventor assembly into Showcase and try to apply ray tracing. The assembly file is now missing some part and does not display at all. The assembly file is model that has been designed with frame generator however some of these framed generated parts just don't display. The strange this is they do display in other less desired formats such as shaded etc but not when ray tracing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Tips For Rendering / Ray Tracing Dark Objects

Oct 10, 2011

My goal is to get it so that I can just turn on realistic visual style and ray tracing and be able to get usable screen shots for product datasheets/ marketing material without having to resort to rendering in studio. (If possible and I think it should be) All my products feature a black powder coated enclosure (think DVD player shape/size). When I enable ray tracing all I basically see is a black blob with no good definition between surfaces,etc.I'm assuming now that I need to do 2 things #1 increase/modify lighting and #2 modify the colors in the style library to work better. For that black color in the style editor I basically have all 4 colors (ambient/diffuse/specular/emissive) set to black. Is there something I should do to allow "more realistic" colors instead of just all color options set as black? I've gotten very decent renders from studio that worked just fine in the past but I've got roughly 400+ screenshots that are needed now for new products. I can play around with settings till I'm blue in the face but I was just looking for tips to have a decent baseline to start with.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Hangs While Rendering Model With Decals

Apr 3, 2013

I'm using Autodesk Inventor Pro 2013.

I have a middle complexity model, with several decals (,jpg, Using Mask), projected to different parts. When I start Studio, and start rendering, Inventor hangs. The render window opens, but it freezes on Translating and soon both of the windows are not answering. I've checked th CPU. Inventor uses around 1G of ram, during regular use. When I start rendering, slowly it goes up around 5,5G, and eventually the Windows freezes. Rendering the same model without a decal works fine.

I've installed all the Windows updates, and the Inv2013 1.1 Service Pack. Nothing worked.
