AutoCAD Inventor :: Vault File And Folder Rename Taking Too Long?

Nov 8, 2012

I have a vaulted project with about 1000 parts in it and a subfolder within that that has about 250 parts in it.I am told that vault does not manage references outside the project scope as defined by the IPJ which in theis case is at that 1000 part folder level.

If I go to rename the folder with 250 parts in it, it takes up to a half hour.  I am having trouble believing that vault can't do better than a half hour to manage the references of a subfolder of a project with 1000 parts in it, when only 250 parts are affected.

Also, I notice a secondary ipj file is created temporarily during the renaming.  That ipj appears under an inventor folder under my docs.  Can't see why it takes two ipj files to manage one project.  Also don't understand why there should be a local ipj file active when I am renaming at the vault level.  I am suspicious that this other ipj (named after my company name, indicating a purposeful act) is expanding the scope of reference management since its parent resides at the root Vault explorer ($) separate of the projecy ipj.  Also takes way too long to rename individual files.

AutoCAD Inventor :: IDW Drawings Taking Long Time To Open?

Jul 5, 2013

A few of my design drawings are taking a long time to open from cold. They are not particularly complex drawings and all the files / assembly etc. that are referenced on them are correctly stored and are not corrupt or 'sick'. Why are these drawings taking so long to open? waiting for them is slowing me down considerably.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Suddenly Taking Too Long To Perform Actions

Sep 20, 2013

I am working with Inventor 2013 Professional. For some reason, after a crash last night, Inventor takes anywhere from five to twenty seconds to perform simple tasks. Things like Constraints, geometry projection, and saving are taking way too long. This is all of a sudden.

This is a simple project consisting of 10 simple parts.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Quickest Way To Rename Files In Vault?

Apr 9, 2012

What would be the quickest way to rename files in Vault?

I have lets say 100 parts with prefix 1012.

I want to change to 1014.

I can hightlight all parts in Vault, go rename and then replace prefix manually for each part.

Seems hectic.Any quicker, more automatic way?

Adding prefix does not work since does not replaces but adds.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Search Through Vault Folder?

Apr 11, 2013

I'm using the free Vault that doesn't have a batch print option so I've been writing some code that does the trick.

The code lists open drawings, assemblies and parts, and depending onwhich is selected, displays a list of all the drawings associated with the file and it's sub-components.

Everything is good except that when the list of drawings is populated I am only able to search through the working folder for drawings. This means that if the drawing has been modified by another, or the drawing has not been opened on the local computer, it will not print (or print the old version).

Is there a way to pull the latest files from vault into the working folder automatically? Currently the only way this is possible is by selecting "Get/Checkout" in vault and downloading the files.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Same Part Located In Vault At Different Folder

Oct 2, 2012

I have some 3D parts and assemblies in Vault. they are same parts and same assembly. They are no any different. But, they are located in different folders in Vault. It means that the same part number located at different folder in Vault. How I can combine them in one location. I just want that there is 1 copy for 1 part number in vault.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Why Simple Script Files Taking So Long To Run In 2012

Jul 31, 2011

I'm using ACA 2012 with Windows 7 Pro x64 in a stand-alone environment. Lately it seems that even running a very simple script file takes multiple minutes where it used to take 1 or 2 seconds. Also, the script no longer scrolls through the 4 or 5 commamd lines I show at the bottom of the monitor; it just lays there like an egg. This behavior is common to all of my scripts. Also, saves seem to be taking a lot longer than before. I've turned virus protection off to no avail.

After Effects :: Simple 3D Animation Taking Long To Render?

Aug 3, 2013

I've just started to use AE again (CC version) and I'm trying to make a simple 3D text animation and it seems like it's taking an excessively long time to render. I have a 4 year old MacBook Pro (2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB) and it's taking several hours to render and export a 5-second clip through Media Encoder. The animation is just text on a black background. I'm using the ME YouTube 480P preset. The original file is 1920x1080 because I am going to have to chroma key it over some existing 1080p video. I did a little 3D work years ago and this seems like an awfully long time for such a short, simple animation. Is there some simple, common mistake I'm probably making? Should I scale the comp down to 480p?

AutoCAD Inventor :: File Management And Vault

Dec 10, 2013

I started using inventor when he started the job.  I have been using Inventor for about 3 years now.  My question is that I have always practiced good file management at every level of a project from single parts to large assemblies; however at this new job the file management is horrible, in the last 3 years the company has been through 13 different drafters, thus each drafter was saving files in different location and names making finding parts and assemblies a nightmare.

The problem I am having is that the lead designer is insisting that we implement vault, and that it will solve our problems, However I feel that we needed to develop a universal file and naming convention first, get  our file hierarchy in order before we try and implement vault. There will only be 2 of us accessing the cad files and I don't think that vault would even be a good fit for our work flow.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Updating File Status From Vault

Aug 17, 2011

Every time I open a file in Inventor a dialog box comes up that says "Updating file status from vault".  In most cases it is not a big deal, but when an 1000+ part assembly is opened this box flashes for each part in the assemly causing a delay in opening the file.  Needless to say this is very annoying.  So my questions are what is this doing exactly and can I turn it off?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Vault Autogenerated File Names Not Working

Dec 17, 2013

I thought I had found the answer to file naming nightmares with the autogenerated sequential numbers in Vault.  Everything went OK until I renamed some frame generated files with the design assistant and checked those in.  Vault obviously doesn't look to see if a file name is already in use because it did not go to the next free number, it just blindly continued with the sequence, ignoring the fact that those names were taken.

Is there any way to have Vault check and keep proper count when parts are added or renamed manually?  Or at least manually set the counter to the next available number?

AutoCAD Inventor :: CRASH When CHECKIN To Vault And Create DWF File

When I try to Check files into Vault from Inventor 2011 and I have, under settings, Create visualization attachment checked, Inventor locks up.  Only (1) of (4) machines with this problem.  Same machine is using Vista, everyone else is using XP.

Seems to hang up the most when i try to check the .idw.  Locks up 50% of the time.   Tends to upload parts and assemblies o.k. then hangs up on the .idw.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Working On One Big File With Vault / Multiple User?

Jan 27, 2012

working on one big file with Vault/multultiple user scenario?

Lets say you design a car and having the frame and the body you have different guys that come in and do electrical, fuel system, so on... They need to work with the frame and the body doing their parts, since thats the reference for them.

But only one guy can check it out. We try the approach that one system is an entire independent assembly inserted into the top assembly but its not perfect.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rename Part To File Name

Oct 13, 2012

When I rename a part, the iproperties field under project>part number does not change. If there is a drawing for the part, the part number in the drawing reflects the old part number.

Can I tell inventor to rename the part automatically to the file name as seen in windows explorer? Can I set it to rename automatically in the tree in an assembly environment?

I'm using Inventor 2013.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Duplicating Vault Project And Renaming Every Related File

May 20, 2013

I want to duplicate & then rename a project I have stored on my vault computer, However I am experiencing many difficulties.

There are probably around 1000 + files in this project-multiple assemblies/drawings & parts. Initially i did a Pack & Go of the Project to my desktop. I then took my first top level drawings & using Design Assistant renamed all the reference parts and assemblies related too it. This worked fine, albeit a very long time to rename all the files.

The problem is that i have say 50 drawing files, some contain similar assemblies/part files which will have already been rename in the first top level drawing & some container different assemblies/parts (which are not related to the first top level drawing) & will have to be renamed separately.

Is there an easier way to duplicate & rename a vault project because design assistant makes this task extremely laborious. An great tool to add would be to 'Find & Replace' a file name & apply it too all the files. Similar to the function in Microsoft Word.

I have looked into the copy design feature in vault however, you can only copy a project within a project, you cannot copy it to a completely new folder in the vault.

The other problem is, is that you can only add a prefix or suffix to every file/related part/assembly, & i would rather replace the project number rather then add the new project number to the file names. This would be a viable option if you could rename multiple files quickly, however this just stems back to the design assistant.
