View 1 Replies View RelatedCan you save files for 2012 in 2013? I have the ability to upgrade to 2013 while others at my company are not able to, since they were not put on the subscription service. If I upgrade will they still be able to open my files or can I back save to a previous version? I know I can save it as different file type, like .iges or .step, then use feature recognition. But I need them to have full editability to sketches and features.

I have both Inventor 2012 and 2013 installed on my system. I have gone in to the properties and changed the .dll reference file to read out of the bin/PublicAssemblies folder in 2013, however, when I run my Windows Form, it will open Inventor 2012 instead.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn opening a C3D 2013 drawing, C3D hangs for about 5 minutes. At the bottom of the screen is the message: "Upgrading COGO points". This drawing is only 974KB.
The drawing is being opened from a network . I tried saving it on a local hard drive. That had no effect.
Was wondering what program people use to create parts manuals for the Inventor models.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to know how, if possible to make the attributes of a block show up as text. Example:
I am working on a power utility design where each power pole has a sequential name and may or may not have units that need to be added into a contract. I have my attributes set up where I can go in and assign a required number to a unit so I can export my data into excel. The problem I am having is that I have to enter the text and change the attribute quantities separately. Also, there are 40 or so different units and only a few certain ones required at each pole. Is there a way to set the attribute only to display text if the quantity is greater than zero so my list is not 40 units long at each pole?

I have a multi body part with an extruded cut through all solids. Each solid is derived out to its own part. I edited the extrude feature in the multi body part and removed one solid from the selection set. The cut was correctly deleted from the solid, but when I open the part its still there. The only way to make it update correctly is to manually edit the derive feature in the part. Caught it just before it went off for cutting. 2012 SP2, all hotfixes, win7 64 bit.

One can get the pawl to track the ratchet wheel surface OK but there seems to be nothing to stop the ratchet wheel going in both directions, contrary to real life experience. I have used transitional constraints to link pawl surfaces with ratchet wheel surfaces but there seems to be no drive constraint which will operate in this circumstance.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow many people recreate their templates from scratch when you upgrade to then next version of Inventor? When we switched to Inventor we were told that we should recreate our templates from scratch when going to the next release. This wasn't to bad in the beginning but is very time consuming now due to the number and complexity of our templates. I'm curious what other people are doing. I would also like to hear from Autodesk, what do you recommend?

When I open up the drawing on my computer, it plots perfectly. I attached a clip of it, the thick black is our drawing border, the viewport is where the color stops.

error messages that say I can't use various functions because the file has objects from a newer version. I have ACA 2012 and the file is from ACA 2013.
Isn't there a way to convert or eliminate these 'objects' so I can use these files 'normally' in 2012 ACA?

In the past (using Autocad 2007), I could copy my AutoCAD drawing and paste it into a sketch in Solidworks. Since my company updated to AutoCAD 2013, I can't seem to paste anything into the Solidworks sketch.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have install Civil 3D 2013.
In my 2012 release I added several parts into the pipe catalog. I would like to merge those 2012 parts into my new 2013 pipe catalog.
I added a .PAT file to the 'support file search path' in order to use a custom hatch pattern. (Im using AutoCAD LT 2012)
In the process it has deleted all of the predifined hatch patterns and the custom one did not work either. So now I have ZERO hatch patterns.
How do I get the predefined hatches back?
