I am using Autodesk Inventor design suite 2013.
I am wondering if there is a way to unlink the dwg and the ipn. I am making drawings ( from the solid model) for instructions. I use the same ipn for all the steps in the instructions and save each steps as separate drawings but when i open the drawings again they are in the current state the ipn is in.
how to un-link and ole object (pdf) in 2013. Also, how do I insert it without it linking. The insert ole dialogue box gives an option to link or not, but then it will not insert the pdf.

1. Is any chance to get shortcut "unlink" as "S" key? I open Keyboard shortcuts menu and type "unlink" but there is no function. So, can I modyfy a key to be as hortcut of unlink?
2. How can I save project and then send it to my mate that he can open it withouts any problems? There is an option to "save videos" with project files automatically? Sony Vegas has that options and this is great!

I somehow screwed up all my pages so that they're linked together to share all the same width and height dimensions. I need some pages only a certain height and others shorter, taller, etc. When I edit the size to say 1000x width and 3000x height somehow all the other pages either lengthen or shorten and cut content.

I am using photoshop CS2. on a mac OS X.
When i make changes to other layers in the layers pallete, it changes my 'background' as well. I know that i can duplicate it but regardless, the 'background' changes according to what i do to the other layers even tho it is locked.
Is there a way in the description field of an Inventor hole table to have mixed units? Some hole sizes at fractions, some at 2 plc, and others at 3 places.

I can't get Inventor 2013 show a custom iproperty correct.My iLogic rule is this:
iProperties.Value("Custom", "myvol")=volume = iProperties.Volume
But the custom iProperty is a Yes or No.Had no problem with this in Inventor 2011.
I'm trying to use iLogic Design Copy to copy an assembly and all its associated parts to another directory. The assembly contains content center parts. Inventor warns me that the destination file of one of the CC parts (and 18 others) will be overwritten. When I go ahead and copy anyway, the copying process stops at that specific CC part. The Design Copy Progress dialog box states there is an error copying that CC part. When I close the Design Copy Progress dialog box, Inventor crashes.
The error copying the CC part: I'm allowed to use content center parts in iLogic Design Copied stuff, right? I searched some related topics and I'm under the impression that Inventor keeps the CC parts in its own directory and shouldn't be trying to overwrite them.
We are trying to get task scheduler to automatically download certain files from the Vault. Templates and Styles. The templates work great, but there is no way to specify any filetypes other than Inventor filetypes. Am I missing something? Is there a way to specify non-inventor filetypes?

Is there a program that can make stp files from our inventor models? Our purchasing department wants to do this task for our vendors and they don't want in have a full version of Inventor to do it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I installed TD Inventor Professional 30-Day free trial and I downloaded the installer and went through the download of the installer process and it made an autodesk inventor folder on my desktop. I click on it and it takes me into the C drive under the autodesk file Inventor 2012 TestDrive and has an Application called TDSetup. Once I click on it it does a load wheel then nothing happens.
I can't seem to find a solution and I just installed DirectX.

View 4 Replies View Relatedwe modeled prototypes of trains (locomotives) in 3dsMax, these models will be used to produce molds and thumbnails of these, you must give the producer STP files, max does not export these files, and we have exported in various formats supported by some programs if exported STP, eg Inventor, we have exported files are STL, oBJ and DWG, so far so good, all save the parts or layers without problem.
The problem comes when exporting from Inventor to STP, nothing happens, the STP file is as if you were empty, there is nothing ..
I have attached the DWG file, if possible, have 17 CAD models for export to STP.
I would like to know how can i create or add an UOM. (for example : 25 per box) in my BOM.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to inventor, used it to design a computer case of my own, so now that I got all of my parts in ipt I need to convert them to dxf in 1:1 scale.
What is the easiest way to do that? I found some info here [URL]... but in the Environments tab I don't have any ''AEC Exchange''.
Oh and another thing, after sketching all my parts I ''deleted'' the dimensions from the view, so is there any way I can make them show up in that dxf because I will have to send the dxf's to someone who will laser cut the parts, so dimensions have to be shown of course, or do I have to add them one by one?
Using Inventor 2012 Premium, this problem didn't exist in 2011.
When I click "I"->New(small arrow)->Part. All dimensions are in cm.
If I instead click "I"->New and choose the Part template all dimensions are in mm, as it should. I have two .ipt-templates (standard (mm) and sheet metal (mm))
My college went through all templates we have and no one uses cm.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create excel files out of BOM for an assembly that contains a step file from customer.
That step file is a subassembly that contains several files.
So now my issue is if i could modify the BOM so that i add several rows. Basically i need to add in bom rows that are pointing to inexistent parts. Besides creating a subassembly and add there several empy parts is there any other way?
im wondering if it is possible to convert a 2D dxf to 3D in 2012 inventor? I couldnt do after I downloaded the updates for 2D to 3D conversion. I wonder if such a conversion is only available for 2D DWG files
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using 2013 inventor and revit. I am trying to use this BIM exchange in inventor and I am try to by creating a simple part/family with a couple of different sizes in a table. Everything looks good in inventor as far as the table having different size and when I activate one it changes the part. When I export I am going to tools, BIM exchange, hitting export and away she goes. There is only one export button and everything is pretty simple to understand. So inventor as far as I know, is good.
Now when I bring it into revit as the ASDK format from export with BIM exchange as I am getting is the model with whatever view happens to be active. I am not getting the table nor the parameters I set up for manually changing the family.
I have done some research and noticed that in previous verisons you needed to export the table in inventor after that model, but I am not seeing that option anywhere.
So my question is, am I missing something and you can no longer export parametric parts from inventor to revit, or is there another set I am missing either in the inventor setup or the import into revit?
I've opened up Inventor 2013 and clicked 'new' but no templates have come up. I went to my templates file in my documents and there wasn't any there. Where can I get the templates?
