AutoCAD Inventor :: Saving And Checking In IAMs

Feb 8, 2013

I have Machine.iam with all children checked out, except for company-library-parts and Content Centre parts.

After changes to non library parts and checking in machine.iam (with 1 or more company librarie .iams in it) Inventor says: machine.iam and (x) dependent files must be saved.before they can be checked in.save and continue?

Answering Yes -> Inventor says: One or more documents have been modified but save was unsuccessful. You must save the document prior to check in. (but I did save before check in!).  Only option is to press cancel..

All filenames of library.iams in the vaultlist in inventor are turned red with an * behind the filename stating they have changed.(?) Somehow inventor thinks the library.iam haved changed in this machine.iam..

If i do this again with all included children checked out, but not the library files, the result is the same.

I tried to find out what is wrong with these library-parts (all library.iams (?)) so I opened a few of these library.iam (with the librarie.ipj) and the update button is greyed out so there are no changes..

We “solve” this now by closing the machine.iam, inventor then asks: save changes?, press Yes, an new window pops up: file “machine.iam” is checked out to you. Do you want to check it in now?, press Yes, a new window pops up asking which files you want to check in: machine.iam and all checked out parts in it, press OK and all will be checked in.

But this only works with files that are already in the vault, not with new drawings of iams.

We used to have the problem after saving an part or assembly -> Inventor would ask after pressing close: do you want to save, as if the first save didn’t work.. Now we have a bigger problem..

Also sometimes checking out include children only includes all direct children and not also children of children.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Find IPTs That Are Not Connected To IAMs

Aug 6, 2012

You start drawing, drawing, drawing, use IPT's in IAM's etc...

At the end of the project there are bunch of IPT's that are not used anymore in the IAM's because of changes etc...

After a while you server or computer is full of unused and unwanted IPT's.

Is there an easy way to find IPT's that are not connected to IAM's ? So i can select them all an delete?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ribbon Freezes When Checking In

Nov 21, 2012

If you make alterations to a model, and then switch to vault menu, your model is red with an asterix (requires saving). If you click check in on this, you get the message that it needs saving, click ok. It appears that it has worked but all the buttons on the toolbar are frozen. if you click the big I all the ribbon greys out and you need to restart Inventor. The only button that still works is Suite Workflows.

I have SP1.1 installed as well as the vault hot fix.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Checking In While Closing Vault?

Jun 12, 2013

Having problem when using Inventor to check in a (large->slow) file while closing vault at the same time?

One of my colegues had a drawing file lose some of his changes when he checked in.  we could not see a reason why, as the file was in vault with the correct time stamp.  the file was the same as the previous check in.

This morning i have had a similar problem, where by i had made changes before checking in last night and when i opened the file in the morning the changes where not there.

I looked on my c drive in old versions (before i did anything else to overwrite it!) and low and behold the changes there!

The only thing i remember doing that was not normal was to close Vault while this large file was in the process of checking in through inventor.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Checking Out Files From Vault?

Dec 9, 2011

I am using Inventor 2009 and have always been told not to check out files from the Vault directly. Rather to use Inventor when checking them in or out. What is the reason for this and has that changed with current versions?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Checking Out Parts From Custom Libraries

I have a lot of custom libraries for purchased items for my projects. When I bring them into my assemblies I cannot turn on or off surface planes or make any changes.

I get the message that the file is not checked out to me. How can I make it so they are always checked out to me. The libraries are mine on my system.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Best Practices Checking For Objects In Collections

Aug 14, 2012

I have some commands in which I add a button to the context menu in certain situations. Depending on the situation the button may be added or removed.

I'm alternating between using iterating through the definitions on the object they belong and if I have access to the it such as events that expose the commandbar object I iterate through it's buttons. If I don't I use a try/catch on the ControlDefinitions. Iterating through that causes an unacceptable pause.

I've always thought using exceptions to test objects is expensive but the delay breaks the users flow due to the pause.

What is the correct way to test for this?

I also run into this situation because I have different addins that add different sets of controls from a common set of dlls depending on the use context. Try/Catch works but is that the recommended way to test for things. I often need to test  for the existance of things such as parameters (I have some plugins which will recreate sets of needed user parameters and some have hundreds if they don't exist already) and try/catch seems to be the best method.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Checking BIM Files Created In 2014

Aug 8, 2013

we are a large manufacturing organisation and currently are using Inventor 2014 for our product design and day to day production drawing. We purchased Inventor 2014 recently for its BIM transfer capabilities. It would appear however that we can only view the outcome of the transferred files fron Inventor within Revit its self.

 As we do not require Revit for any production work, purchasing a Revit licence is not an option. I recently downloaded the trial version of Revit Architecture to review the transfer files but the trial licence is now ready to expire.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Checking Hiddenline Status Of A Part In Drawing?

Jul 17, 2012

I am looking to check the hiddenline status of a part in a drawing. The drawing is made from an assembly. I dont want to take all the segments from the view and check for each of them. I want a way I can just grab the entities that are made from an occurence.

I was hopping to use the drawingcurve(modelobject), but I dont know what to use as the modelobject! is it the edge, edges, component definition... Here some of the code that is not working.

Dim _portePattern As OccurrencePattern = oassbly.ComponentDefinition.OccurrencePatterns.Item("Pattern Porte")
            Dim _PoigneeOcc As ComponentOccurrence
            Dim _PorteOcc As ComponentOccurrence
            Dim PatEle As OccurrencePatternElement
            Dim _poigneeDef As ComponentDefinition
            Dim _poigneeSFbody As SurfaceBody
            Dim _poigneeEdges As Edges

AutoCAD 2010 :: Checking Endpoints For Connectivity Prior To PEDIT

Jul 5, 2012

I have a .DWF underlay that I am tracing over an aerial.  I need to create hatches for several areas, and tried to PEDIT the lines and arcs into a polyline.  Several segments, however, were not "connected" to the adjacent segments even though I'd meticulously snapped to endpoints to draw the lines.

Is there a command or LISP routine to check for connectivity before I attempt PEDIT so I can fix the gaps first?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Constantly Checking For XREFSTATE System Variable

May 22, 2012

I was attempting to troubleshoot some performance issues I've been having using process monitor.  I noticed that AutoCAD 2013 is constantly checking for an XREFSTATE System variable, that according to documentation is stored in the registry. however, process monitor is reporting this variable as not found.  So that leads me to a couple questions:

why is it constantly checking the status of the variable

why is the variable not located within the path it is looking for.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Checking For Existence Of Drive Using Code Not Working?

May 2, 2013

I'm trying to check for the existence of a drive using lisp, then if not found perform a task (represented in my below example by the alert)

(if (vl-file-directory-p "C: en") T)(alert "exists"))

 I know it doesn't work because if I change the T to nil as demonstrated bellow I should invoke the opposite reaction from autocad but instead I get the exact same outcome which is an alert telling me the file exists?
 
(if (vl-file-directory-p "C: en") nil)(alert "exists"))

VideoStudio :: Avoiding Re-linking Checking

Nov 3, 2010

Picture this:

I have a project: project.vsp
I have a file: d:file.avi

I click on "project.vsp" the program starts and i should just be able to render it.

However

The file ("d:file.avi") is frequently rerendered. It has the same resolution, and duration, but the content is new.

Every time i click on "project.vsp" I am told that d:file.avi is missing (even though it isn't) and I have to relink it or skip.

Isn't there some way to just get the program to load the file without bugging me?

It seems if i go to preferences and uncheck the relink setting, the program will instead just skip the file and not load it - which is not desirable..

I am doing a lot of Flyers and some text based graphics with Xara and this is the one feature I am still missing. If it's getting to complicated I switch to Corel Ventura Publisher which has not been maintained since ages, but is still a good piece of software. By teh way: Why does Xara/Magix not simply buy Ventura from Corel an include into their packages.

Lightroom :: What Checking Catalog Point Curves Means

Jun 3, 2012

Yesterday, I upgraded from LR 4.0 to 4.1. Ever since that moment, when I try to launch it, Lightroom displays a progress bar with message: "Checking Catalog Point Curves". The progress bar advances to about 10% and then stops. I waited for about 20 minutes and it did not move at all. I had to force-quit. I tried that for a couple of times - same results.
 
Why did Adobe decide to start a new mode of UPDATING the old version instead of REPLACING the old version with the new one, like it used to be? As it was before, I could simply get back to using the older version. Now, there is no going back!
 
Do you even know what "Checking Catalog Point Curves" means?

Photoshop :: Automated Checking Of Aligned Option In Clone Stamp Tool

May 31, 2013

Today I noticed a slightly peculiar behavior in the Clone Stamp tool when "Aligned" is deselected. Clicking twice on the image with alt or option held down causes the behavior of the tool to change and "Aligned" to become checked. So if you're not planning on using aligned, you alt/option click your mouse for the source point, decide on a different source point, alt/option click again, and suddenly you find yourself using an aligned clone stamp.
 
This does not happen with the Healing Brush Tool, which makes me think it's not an intentional short cut. It's also mighty irritating. I've tried it with both x64 and x32 CS6 on Windows. Happens on both. Does it also happen on Macintosh? Is there any way to switch this behavior off?
 
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1 20120808.r.519 2012/08/08:21:00:00) x64

AutoCAD Inventor :: Saving Animation As WMV

Nov 25, 2013

But why is it that I can only seem to save an animation in Inventor Studio (2014) as a .wmv (or Windows Media File)? Shouldn't I have the options for saving it as other types such as an .avi or the like?

I could have sworn I was able to in past releases. I should be able to save it as such, so where oh where is the setting that is dictating this?

Note: This animation is a cross section, not a shaded, realistic type with lighting and camera details to worry about.
