I am having difficulty converting a STP file (made in SW) to a Parasolid Text file for a customer. I was going to post the model to Customer Files, but for some reason I cannot post on there? The file size is roughly 21MB

Attached is thepdf file of how exactly it looks like and the parasolid file also.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm just started using inventor 2013 (from 2010) & the way colours/materials are applied has completely changed so I'm learning again from scratch.
Here's my issue: A customer has sent a casting to me in Parasolid format. When I open it, all the unmachined surface are blue & look a bit garish. However, the colours of the machined faces are ok & I wish to keep them.
So, I want to chage all the surfaces that are blue - I can use the picker & select all the blue faces seperately (by holding CTRL down & select each face one be one) but this is a pain & takes ages (there are over 200 faces)
I can see & edit the blue color in the manager but how do I tell Inventor to replace all - can it be done?
i have one assembly file. it was done in japanese Language. i need to change in english.

I can't use CADexchanger as well because I am using a MAC. How to convert the file into a STL/OBJ/3DS file that I can import in Blender? I compressed the file and it is 5.8 MB so I can't attach it here and would have to send it manually.

However, about one-third of the feature ID's do not save into the new autocad drawing. Is there a way to just select a portion of the shape file to convert into a drawing? Or just convert all the feature id's and not the grid shapes?

I have some Inventor drawing files that a client wants in an AutoCAD 2007 format. Ever time I try to convert the .idw to an autocad .dwg I get this message, "Problems encountered while saving the document." So far this is what I've tried:
1. Save copy as -> Save as type: AutoCAD DWG files (*.dwg) -> error message
2. Export to DWG -> Save as type: AutoCAD DWG files (*.dwg) -> error message
I am able to save as an Inventor DWG but I need it as an AutoCAD DWG... I think. I read somewhere that Autocad 2007 won't read the DWG unless its in an AutoCAD DWG format.
I am running Inventor 2014 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine.
I've received an STL file from a client which I can't edit or interrogate in Inventor LT. What's the best way to convert this into a solid?

View 3 Replies View RelatedOk, so I understand how to take my Inventor designs and make them into a .adsk file for use as BiM info. Without having revit how in the world am I supposed to check what I'm sending out to my clients? It goes against everything I've ever learned to just make a file and send it out blindly without checking it.
Is this really how Autodesk thinks this process should work?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of creating an external iLogic rule and would like to extract part of the contents of .notepad text file to use in my rule as a string. Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to enter some material ordering info into an external spreadsheet, and have that info reflected in a text box within an idw drawing file.
My method is as follows:
Obtain a numerical value (250) from an external Excel spreadsheet (sample.xlsx).Assign this value to a parameter (abc) in an idw file (Materials Ordering.idw).Insert parameter abc I made into a text box within the same idw file.
I made a set_parameters rule, and the ilogic text of the above example is as follows:
'Open File and Scan line - Part = Impeller Casing Flange
i = GoExcel.FindRow("sample.xlsx", "Sheet1", "Part", "<=", "Impeller Casing Flange")
'abc = Material Width
abc = GoExcel.CurrentRowValue("Material Width")
I had no problems with the first two steps, after checking the parameters I could see that parameter abc is being updated successfully.
However, I am having trouble with the third step. In the format text dialog box, I can see a drop box for components, but I can't find a reference to the idw file in there.
My question is, am I going the wrong way about this? Should I have assigned the parameters to a component instead of the idw file?
I have an iLogic that runs to create parts and assemblies. These parts and sub-assemblies are for a range of library components which are either part(s) or assemblies or and assemblies composed of parts) and sub-assemblies as well. This iLogic is mostly done despite I have limited knowledge in this area. At the beginning it opens a text file (.txt) by the command line:
ThisDoc.Launch("L:\_Nov 02Info and Input GuideLines.txt")that offers guidelines and instructions.
I would like to how can I close (exit) this text file at a point within or end of the current iLogic because, it opens a several files of the same every time I run the iLogic otherwise.
