AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - Missing Add-Ins Tab / Revision Cloud

Mar 13, 2012

Im running Inventor 2012 on a 64 bit windows 7 machine.

Having just newly discovered that Inventor has a Revision Cloud command, I read through the forums and found out that I had to install the two SKD .msi files named DeveloperTools & UserTools, which I have done.  I also read that I have to execute the RegisterGeneralTools.exe which I have also done.  I've rebooted and restarted Inventor numerous times thinking that my Add-Ins tab will show up with my newly acquired Revision Cloud command in Drawing Tools but to no avail.

Im coming from Inventor 2009 so I'm not sure if the Add-Ins tab is now supposed to be the Add-In Manger but from what I seen I should have a tab just right of "Get Started" and should include Drawing Tools and General Tools.

AutoCad :: Turn Object Into Revision Cloud?

Jun 18, 2013

I am using autocad 2011 and i am trying to turn an object into a revision cloud like i used to.

When i open the revision cloud, the only options it now shows are "exit/options" (option only opens a box that allows you to change the arc style and cord length). It does not have "arch length, object or style".

(i am using AutoCad Mechanical but i changed all the toolbars to AutoCad standard)I cant make a neat revision cloud without those original options.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Revision Control

Oct 29, 2013

I create all of the shop drawings for our company and I'm trying to find out the best way to track revised drawings.  A lot of times I create a drawing and there are several revisions. The shop works off of a high res. pdf I print for them and we also have a signed version from the customer.  Once in a while the shop gets their hands on an earlier revision and builds from it.  The signed version from the customer is crappy at best and sometimes faxed so working from it is useless. 

I have a space where I can manually enter the REVISION # on the drawing but sometimes I forget to update it.  If I use an automated timestamp <timestamp> for the drawing with date and time (I've seen this done) or some iLogic code, would this show when the document is printed, opened or saved?

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2012 - Revision Cloud And Tag Tool

Apr 18, 2013

I work on AutoCad 2012. I am trying to find the revision cloud & tag tool. I seem to only be able to place a revision cloud without a tag on the drawing. I don't see a tag option and searching for the option on the help menu has resulted in zero hits. Does AutoCad 2012 not offer this feature or am I looking in the wrong location?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Possible To Extract Part Revision And Place In IDW Revision?

Jun 5, 2012

I am trying to create some new templates for 2013 and I'm trying to figure a way to get the model revision number to populate into the drawing's iproperty revision number so that they will match upon save. I'm trying to do this by creating an ilogic rule but I don't see a system property in the idw that will allow me to access the 3D model iprops. I am going to Event Trigger the rule to run Before Save. Is this possible?

On the drawing border I have created a formatted text box that is built as:

Type: Properties - Model
Property: Revision Number

It simply pulls the data from the models revision number and populates the text box. I need this same thing to happen but rather than populate into a text box I need it to populate into the drawings revision number iprop.

Revit :: Editing The Revision Cloud Shape?

Feb 18, 2010

Is it possible, short of doing some programming through the Revit API, to change the shape of the arcs created with the Revit "Revision Cloud" tool? For example, with AutoCAD you can enter the size of the arcs that you want to use when you use the revision cloud command. Is there anything similar in Revit?

I have done some searching and am surprised at how little mention there is about both the strange look of the clouds produced by the Revit tool and their lack of flexibility. Everyone focuses mainly on being able to associate clouds with deltas and a Revision Schedule, which I admit is important also.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Add Occurrences To Selection (in Drawing Mode)

Oct 8, 2012

I'm dreaming of a Macro to automate the following process that we use every day. We use it to highlight connectors so people can build our product easier.

We manually do the following:

In a drawing view we select a whole set of components (the connectors). Afterwards we change the color to green (using properties) & press hidden lines. This way you can clearly see where you need to place the connectors.

-> see .pdf attached with some pictures making it all clear

I'm being busy to create the code for this but I'm stuck over adding occurrences to a selection set so I can then apply the hidden line command

This is my code so far:

Sub AutoColor()'Step 1 Select a drawing view ' Get the active drawing document. Dim drawDoc As DrawingDocument Set drawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument ' Have the user select a drawing view. Dim drawView As DrawingView Set drawView = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(kDrawingViewFilter, "Select a drawing view.") Dim docDesc As DocumentDescriptor Set docDesc = drawView.ReferencedDocumentDescriptor ' Verify that the selected drawing view is of an assembly.

[code]....

Step 1 works

Step 3 works

Step 4 & 5 are for a later moment

Step 2 calls the sub "SelectOCC". this sub cycles true the occurrences, I can filter them on file location so I only get the components needed (the connectors). In theory it should be possible to add the given occurrences to the selection set so I can run Step 3 afterwards on it.

But I don't succeed in doing this, I've tried countless of methods but without success.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hide Dimensions In Sketch Mode In Drawing Environment

Sep 28, 2012

I was giving a hand drawn wiring diagram (original.jpg) and it is a rats nest!!

I was asked to re-draw this and put it on our drawing template.

I have the plugs and terminal blocks drawn up and now I am about to attempt to add in the wires, but the sketch is so filled with dimension lines and values, it is going to be a task to try and make sure every line I draw is correct. This would be much easier to do if the dimensions could be turned off as the wires I am drawing will not be constrained.

I don't think there is layers options inside a sketch mode, or a if i start a new sketch I don't think I can project that sketch to the new one?

The only other options I can think of was to delete all dimensions and apply FIX constraint to everything! or

I guess I could have modeled the plugs and blocks in position and added them to the drawing, projected the geometry to a new sketch and added in my wires??

There must be someway to toggle the dimensions??

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 2010 :: Sheet List - Drawing Revision Number

Jan 20, 2011

I am using the sheet list table to generate a table of contents. I add the "Drawing Revision Number" column to the table, but when it generates the list it does not include the field.

Is there any way to add the "Sheet Revision Number" instead since this is what property is actually adjusted in the sheet's properties? (i never change the "Drawing Revision Number")

OR is the solution to change the "Drawing Revision Number"? Where do I change this property at? Is this property applied to all sheets within a drawing?
