AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - Sketch Text Parameters

Nov 27, 2012

I have several name plates which are embossed, and only the description changes from job to job, but find it a nuisance having to go into the part,edit sketch then edit text! each time I want to change the description .

I was initially going to get round this by creating a form and linking it to the text parameter!  But for some reason it won't take in the text parameter I created and will only find and take in numerical parameters?

 Is there any way around this? I know it is possible in inventor 2013. I am currently working with Inventor professional 2012.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Text Size Of A TextBox Object In A Part Document Sketch

Oct 3, 2008

This code works with no errors but does not change the text size. A user can over ride the text size (Font size) so I'm hoping it is possible thru code.

Dim oSketch As Inventor.Sketch
Set oSketch = oPartDoc.ComponentDefinition.Sketches("Sketch1")
Dim oText As Inventor.TextBox
Set oText = oSketch.TextBoxes.AddByRectangle(pnt1, pnt2)
oText.Style.FontSize = 0.1

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Dimensions On Sketch?

Dec 17, 2012

One of our senior designers seems to think there is a setting when creating a sketch that will automatically dimension.

So if a straight line is draw and 5 mm length is entered a 5 mm line will immedialtey be created, he seems to think that you can then immedialtey Dimension said line??

I can't find anything, settings wise?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimensions In Sketch Symbol?

Jul 30, 2010

I need to create skech symbols to illustrate mounting schemes, so without scale. I need to put dimensions in the symbol, which are only annotation, not parametric. This dimension must be visible once the symbol inserted on the sheet.

When I create the dimension in the sketch, it is always a paramertric dimension, which drve the drawing and is not visible in the inserted symbol.. How can I do to have only an annotation ? (I precise the option "sketch only" does not function on dimensions)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketch Dimensions With Workplanes?

Oct 29, 2012

I would like to use Workplanes a little more in my model, as I am having problems with sketches failing when the model is changed slightly. I guess this comes down to the way the original parts have been modeled - dimensions for features taken off other features, which are not necessarily constant.

I have found it possible to project the workplane on the sketch, although this does not constrain the projected plane, it is free to move around.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Retrieve All Dimensions From The Sketch?

Sep 21, 2011

I typically have a part file with bunch of sketch blocks as die drawings.I use those for rest of my workflow.

If I want to make drawings of these sections.

Is there a way by which I can retieve all dimensions from the sketch of the sketch blocks (die) on to a drawing.

I know that I can get model sketches but I do not know a way to get the model sketch dimensions.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Editing Sketch Dimensions When Created?

Jun 27, 2013

Since day 1 when I place a dimension in sketch mode, it immediately goes to edit so I can type the number in. Suddenly yesterday it stopped editing and I have to click a few more times to type the number in. It's totally messing up my work flow and whatnot. The option in application options is checked as well.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimensions UCS And Sketch Symbols Are All Oversized?

Nov 28, 2011

All of a sudden, things in my inventor sketches are approximately double normal size - the UCS symbol, dimensions, constraint symbols.  The UCS icon stays oversize regardless of the environment.

I went into Application Options, Sketch tab, and changed the Constraint and DOF symbol scale but it has no effect in the sketch environment.  It's not confined to a single part or assembly and I have not, to my knowledge, changed any Windows or other Inventor setting.

I feel like I've stumbled into the Readers Digest Large Print edition of Inventor. How to control the size of these things?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Reference Dimensions In Sketch Mode?

Sep 9, 2003

In 5.3 I can create reference dimensions in sketch mode to my hearts content. They became very valuable as I would use them to determine placement of multiple features. Now, in IV 7, I have alot of trouble creating reference dimensions from adjacent features on the same surface. I have to change the way I'm working now and it has stumped me on a few occasions. is there a "new" feature I need to enable or is this the cost of progress?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Visible Sketch Dimensions On Face Of Part?

Jan 8, 2013

I'm making a part and am adding features to it and using my existing sketch dimensions as my guide. The problem is that when there are sketch dimensions on the face of the part, they are difficult to read. I'm forever dragging these dims to the side in order to read them, it's just a bit annoying. I was wonering if there was a setting that made them show up as well as they do when the aren't sitting on the face of my parts. I've attached a .jpg of what I'm talking about. notice the dimension on the left side and the bottom.

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 :: Small File Size When Exporting

Feb 15, 2013

I am trying to export and save numerous Inventor Assembly Models, to send to various customers to import into their models. I have been saving them as .stp files, but they are very large files after exporting, and I'd like to know if there is a way to decrease the exported file size. I could zip them after I create them, but I was hoping there was an easier way or different format than .stp. I could also suppress numerous internal componants, but I would rather not have to go through that task either. In the end, they would really only require the outer shell, with any externally viewed holes still present.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Increasing Size Of Triad In 3D Sketch Mode

Oct 26, 2011

I'd like to be able to vastly increase the size of the triad in the 3D Sketch environment - when sketching the triad is tiny and does not increase in size when zooming, this makes snapping to its planes extremely difficult.
