AutoCAD Inventor :: Set Dimensions To Be Rounded Up To 5 To 10 Or Other Value?
Feb 19, 2013
in Autocad it was easy, in dimension style I could set up dimensions to be rounded to 5 ot 10 or any other value.I now need to set dimension to be rounded to 5mm (5, 10, 15, 20 .......). And I can not find a way to do that.

I typically as much as possible like to insert my dimensions into my drawing from my model.
I created holes in the model as a 1/4" tapped hole
Yet when I show the dimensions in the drawing they show the minor dimension.
How do I get the 1/4" to show? I have selected the feature and still get these results.

I have a rounded corner rectangle in a template that I am working on..I would like to extend the vertically but keep the rounded edge dimensions the same as I extend vertically.
Right now I extend the rectangle but the edges also extend.

How do I make the frame & photo rounded just like they did in the following template I'm working on in Flash. They say they did it in Photoshop.
I used the rectangel tool and it always makes the photo inside out. I need it to round the edges not hide the photo. Is there a way to show the middle of the photo and then make a frame like they did on the website?
I'm using Photo Shop Elements.

I have a cylinder with an 18mm diameter.
I export my ipt to an stl (and I make sure that I click on options before I convert and make sure the units are in mm) yet the units are still off. I am using Inventor 2013.
It seems like most people were able to solve their problem by clicking on options but even that seems like it is not working for me.

I have been reading here that the preferred mode of generating dimensions on the drawing views is by using "Retrieve" method.
My question is: how can I programatically add dimensions or measurements to the model so I can retrieve them in the drawing view? This has to be all done by code.

tmpApp.UnitsOfMeasure.GetStringFromType(Inventor.UnitsTypeEnum.kCentimeterLengthUnits)
returns "zentimeter"
Is there also a function which returns the unit sign "cm" ?

Is there actually a good reason why dimensions in IV are vectorless? If not, can we consider as a feature request? This gives me constant headaches in Inventor with my sketches and mates solving in unpredictable ways. I know I can use work planes as a work around, but it's a huge PITA.

I am dimensions moving around in my drawing files and I am trying to figure out why they do this. I change one little thing on my models, open the drawing, then spend 30 minutes going over every dimension in comparison to the old drawing trying to find all the ones that moved erratically and put them back where they were. Most of the dimensions that move don't have anything to do with the change I made to the model.
For example, the dimension in this picture used to be on the other side of the other extension line, and it was never that close to the geometry:

I have a part made by a former co-worker that appears to have some dimensions locked. The second feature on the attached file is a pair of rectangular cuts. I would like to edit the dimensions of the hole, but when I select a dimension I am unable to enter any numbers in the dialog box.

Quick question...
Once a 3D object is drawn/completed in Inventor LT, how does one go back to the object to change the length/radius of certain objects without having to completely redrawn the object. For instance, imagine a bike wheel that is fully draw. Later perhaps one wants to go back to the wheel and adjust the radius of the spokes and the length. How does one do this quickly. In 2D I see how, but can this also be done in 3D with Inventor LT?

Is there a way to break dimensions in Inventor like in Autocad? It automatically breaks around certain things, but I'm wondering if there is any way to control this.

Also be sure to pick the 'aligned dimension' method and not the 'linear dimension'. I hope that works in Revit as it does in AutoCAD.

I'm trying to reposition dimensions in a drawing through the API. The output of my code seems to indicate the method is working, but after it runs the drawing is unchanged. Here's the code (in VBA):
Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument
Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSheet As Sheet
Set oSheet = oDoc.Sheets.Item(1)
Dim oLdim As LinearGeneralDimension
Dim oLeaderNote As LeaderNote
Dim oDimLine As LineSegment2d ' Dimension Line
Dim oStartPt As Point2d ' Dimension Line Start Point
Dim oEndPt As Point2d ' Dimension Line End Point
[code]....
Looks like it moved my vertical dimension left, but it doesn't actually do anything. Is this not a viable method for repositioning a dimension?

For some reason I cannot stack dimensions anymore. Even when I try to stack mtext it doesn't work. Is there something that may have been changed in dim styles or anywhere else that has caused this?

I created a sketch then tried to retrieve dimensions in a drawing from the sketch. When I used the retrieve function, no dimensions appeared. I made sure that the box in the Application Options under the Tools tab was checked for retrieving all dimensions upon placement. I have tried numerous ways to retrieve the dimensions, and while I can place them manually, I really need to be able to retrieve all at once as seen on the sketch.
I have been able to use the retrieve function before on files that I downloaded from a website so I know to use the function.
I'm attaching a file which I am having trouble retrieving dimensions. I am using Inventor 2013 educational version.
