the easiest way to create a vector image of a model in inventor? I also have other Autodesk tools at my disposai (Product Design Suite).
We have creating a catalogue of company parts, and they require nice clean crisp images for the brochure. They only seem to be able to create raster images.
I created a logo for a family member's new restaurant in photoshop but now it's time to make that logo into a sign.
The company doing it needs a vector image obviousy, and I'm just wondering how you do that? The company doing it was useless so I'm hoping for some input from you guys.
I am using Windows Vista and Illustrator CS4.
I would like to trace this image and I was wondering what the best way is to do that. As you can see I made a small start and not sure if that's the right way to go.

What I bring to the software is my background in studio arts 2D and 3D. Photography is a tool to support both of these activities. Over the years that skill has developed and I have many great photos. The photos make me a little nuts now that I focus on digital. In digitals photos I easily have over 60,000 photos. I have some experience with Photoshop. I won’t say I am a proficient but will say I have good skills in it. I created my first logo in Photoshop. Of course it is not vector and I know it should be vector. I did it at no charge for a nonprofit. I would still like to create a vector form of the logo. Awhile back I purchased a book titled “Illustrator CS5 on demand”. It breaks it down in a way that Illustrator is less intimidating. It has renewed my interest in Illustrator. How do I more effectively merge all of these tools and skills? How do I bring what I know to Illustrator’s table? I know there are great possibilities here if I can learn to build vector graphics.
Here I have a vector image. The pink stroke is a cut path that the software I use at work recognises and cuts. (Used for vinyl decals/stickers etc). All the lines highlighted in pink is useless to me, as it would cut out each individual line.
All I need is the outer edge of the entire graphic.
Note my crudely drawn red lines that border the image, that is exactly what I need. As you can see, the paths run through the image. BUT...When I try to erase the paths using add anchor point then cut path at selected anchor points so I can remove that particular segment, the colour essentially "leaks" as it isn't a closed area anymore. Rasterizing the image destroys the quality and I would like to be able to perform this task without loss of quality.
What I'm trying to accomplish is a way to create a kit (assembly of loose parts) that will be used in more than one product model. Each top level assembly (product model) will require the parts to be constrained in different locations but all of the components in the kit will remain the same.
Is the iAssembly tool the right tool to use for this?
I could not get the code to work for me, and I am not a programmer or pretend to be. I need to take a model and create a dwg with ilogic. It only needs to be one flat pattern view and one isometric view.
I also need it to have center marks for all the holes and I need to add certain dimensions.
I'd like to create pdf's with the 3D model embedded. This could then be viewed, rotated, and Zoomed.
Tetra4D is the software to do this as Adobe X no longer supports it.
Is it possible to use an Autodesk Inventor .iam (assembly) to generate a file containing only the visible/exterior surfaces of that .iam?
My employer has a requirement that, in certain situations, only data without internal features/details can be supplied to customers.In this case, we only want the customer to be able to view the assembly & not see the internal features of individual parts.
I am trying to create a Treeview of Model tree which displays parts assembly...etc My code is working well and i am able to get the tree view, but the problem is how can i count the quantity of parts/assemblies and display as consolidated. For instance this below snapshot shows my treeview.
This above snapshot shows my output
Here besides all parts/assemblies i get Semi-Colons and Numbers rather than consolidated view For this part in fig

and Quantity as 3 separately.
I am having trouble doing this in my current software, Serif Drawplus, PSE, Photoplus, (I have Gimp but haven't used it ever yet). And I am considering buying X6 for use in other projects. So, can x6 do this in either Photo Paint with a bitmap, or in X6 with a group of Vectors?
I want to wrap a bottle with a logo. The mesh warps aren't working for me in the above applications, and envelope warping will not work either. Transform-Warp is not present in PSE. I mention that because I see a tutorial for PS using that. How would Corel X6 Suite do this? I am considering buying the software once some questions I have about it are cleared up. I wish Corel would make the manual and tutorial videos public. I'd rather download the trial for actually using it rather than trying to see if some feature is present, or a workaround for a feature a competitor has.
I am also hoping to make in this project, some 10-20 different bottles with the logo on, of different sized bottles and different rotations of the bottles. Plan D is acquainting myself with Blender, but lets hope I don't have to go that far!
I am making myself a logo in photoshop. I have made all the letters that will be used, but they are all seperate entities as most of you who have used vectors know. I would like to interconnect the letters, as well as an angel I have made to go above the letters. My question is, how can I join two seperate vector images into one vector image. For example, joining a letter E with a letter D. I wonder if theres a way to do this without having to delete part of each image and then re-draw, which is a pain. Sorry if this isn't really clear, but its hard to explain.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having a bit of trouble importing models from Vector works into 3DS and being able to apply textures.Object on the left has been imported from Vector Works. Image on the right has been imported from 3DS Max.
I simply apply a texture on both objects although the Vector Works object doesn't seem to respond properly.
I am having difficulty creating the attached 3D business models in vector and struggling with the perspective and angles, both are proving challenging. I initially started by creating a cross hatch grid and rotating it 45 degrees but its not looking right.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy problem today is that I made a Model of a Part of a ship using surfaces rather than solids because the engineer thought it would be easier to bring into ANSYS program for analysis but he is now having a problem with it and I am looking into converting my current model to solid. I can do it but the method I thought of using is quite long winded and we are working to a tight deadline.
1.open up the surface part
2.use "Offset/Thicken"
3.any clashes between parts make a sketch and cut away.
the problem is the amount of plates I have and the time it takes to sort them out.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWe received a surface model from a vendor that I have patched up as best I can, it still has one hole that I can find that I haven't been able to fill. Ideally we would like to have a solid model, but I'm running out of time to get this done and the surface model we have would be good enough for our purposes IF I can get the yellow surface tangent lines to turn off or change their color to black.
I've attached a jpg of the surface model with the yellow lines and uploaded the model here: [URL].....

View 1 Replies View Relatedcreate a 3D model using a .dxf file?
.dxf file contains 3D contour lines.
when importing it to Autocad 3D 2013 is shown as a colum instead of a 3D model.
I've recently been given a *.dwg file that seems to contain a 3D model composed of blocks. I'm a long-time SolidWorks user, and in my parlance, what I've got is an assembly composed of individual parts.
I need to create a 2D version of each 3D part. Currently, my process isCut & paste 3D component into new document.
Select all and perform 'flatten,' removing hidden lines.
Select all and explode.
Manually remove a zillion duplicate and unnecessary line segments. Manually fix radiused / filleted corners, which have become a bunch of little straight line segments. Draw a polyline around the whole part. Run 'boundary' to create a new polyline approximating the original shape.
Clearly, this is not very efficient - nor does it produce an exact 2D duplicate of the face of the 3D part; what I get is a close approximation. I don't use AutoCAD to do 3D work, but I assume that, much like SolidWorks, a 2D sketch is created first and then extruded into the 3D objects.
This, in turn, leads me to believe that there ought to be a way to extract that 2D sketch intact for use elsewhere. How should I go about doing this?
i want to create a layout that just surrounds a given model windows, with a given scale. that is, not set to a specific paper size or with title blocks etc. Is there a way?
