View 4 Replies View RelatedI recieved a drawing in which the coordinate values are a thousand times too high; they are in millimeters and I need them in meters. I checked the settings of the drawing, and it clearly says that it´s in millimeters, but it doesn't change the setting or to copy the whole drawing into a new file with meter settings.
How I can change the coordinates to meters?
My drawing settings is set for US Feet. My Data Collector is set for US Feet. I only import a txt file into the drawing. My txt file coordinates match my Data Collector but never in the drawing. We're only talking about hundredth but I don't understand why it changes in the first place.
Example
Point 1 in txt file & DC --- 10000N 5000E
but in drawing --- 9999.98N 4999.99E
Point 2 in txt file & DC ---- 9624.7230N, 4971.5346E
in drawing ----- 9624.7422N, 4971.5445E
I have generated a batch of several thousand drawings, and then realized that my 'Page 3' paper space is positioned over page 2 in the model! Is there a way that I can tell 'Page 3' to change position to co-ordinates of my choosing, using only script, so that I can write a batch program to change them all?
My only other option is to correct the error in the master drawing and generate all the thousands of drawings again, which is why I'm keen to explore alternatives!

I have a 3D part, which I want to scale down to 0.5 the size in X and Y direcions, but I don't want to scale it down in Z direction.
Is this even possible? How do I go about doing it?
I often create points manually. You get that dialogue box where you choose the layer and the default local coordinates, etc etc.
The local coordinates setting always defaults to Northing/Easting. (ditto the grid coordinates).
I set it to Easting/Northing as is standard around these parts and do my points, but if I close the box, when I reopen it to add more points later, it is back to Northing/Easting.
I cannot find a variable to control this behaviour.
I never need points to have north first and would like it to default to Easting/Northing at all times. Yes I'm using the Metric template.
Is there a way to change this default?

I'm a GIS analyst trying to learn Cad. I'd like to place a single point in autocad model space at a specific Northing/Easting position. After reading several forum threads I don't think CAD allows me to change the coordinate system of model space from map coords to northing easting coords, as we can in GIS.

For almost a decade I'm used to AutoCAD standard 3D coordinates display: X to right, Y away and Z straight up. For some reason Inventor is configured differently: X to right, Y straight up and Z toward you.

Also, I am not able to manually set the x y coordinates on anything besides 0 0. I have been using this program for a long time and haven't had this happen before. turned off the reference point locator but I can't see where to get it back on my menu to be able to align objects.

In Inventor, I want to look for a table called "MS6 Report". If the table exists, I want to get its coordinates, and delete the table. If it doesn't exist, I'd just like to let the user place a table. How can I check if a customtable by this name already exists in the document? Here is what I have so far...
if (aDoc.ActiveSheet.CustomTables.Equals("MS6 Report")){//get table coordinates//delete table }else {userInteract = m_inventorApplication. Command Manager.CreateInteractionEvents();keySelect = userInteract.KeyboardEvents;keySelect.OnKeyDown += new Keyboard EventsSink_ OnKey Down EventHandler(keySelect_OnKeyDown);mouseSelect = userInteract.MouseEvents;mouseSelect.OnMouseDown += new MouseEventsSink_ OnMouse DownEventHandler(Table_Update_Placement); }
The else statement works great. No problems there. How can I find, get coordinates of, and delete a custom table by the name of "MS6 Report"?
Im doing some pictures for a broschure.
There are several products to render out and I like each product to be viewed in same position.
When i rotated the product in a view i like can I save the position coordinates and set them later in another product?

Is it possible to pull out the x,y,z coordinates to text file from a inventor part. I am aware about this that it maybe need some programming but what kind of programming Language is the best to use ? is it possible to use the build in programming Language called Ilogic? Or is it better to use some .net? At my work we use PDMS to do plant modelling and we want to use inventor for modelling the machines and doing the workshop drawings ect. And we want to be able to take the inventor part coordinates and transfer them to PDMS because it can model the machines just by coordinates taken from a text fil.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have drawn a simple block that I want to stretch in two directions manually or from the properties palatte.
My block works fine once and then breaks down. Stretch the block in the 'Y' direction. Deselect the block. Stretch the block again and only the grip moves. Edit the block and close the block, the block resets.
See attached DWG. Two offset arrows.
This works as long as it is not rotated, but distorts if rotated and then stretched.
