I got a .DWG drawing from a client, and tey want me to implement that template on Inventor for the furthere drawings for this new project.
learn me how to make/create/ customize a newTaemplate in Inventor?
Our customer supplied us with an Autocad template, complete with attributes, that I would lite to use as an Inventor template.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a template for a six-faceted vase form. Basically one side of a sweeped hexagon along a curved path which I would like to Flatten in Sheet Metal.
First, I have a profile:
Then, I add a hexagonal base sketch:
Next I do a sweep using the profile as a guide rail and the y-axis as the axis:
So far so good. Finally, I select one of the facets and Thicken to 1mm:
After converting to Sheet Metal and setting the Sheet Metal default to 1mm, Sheet Metal will not perform a Flatten because it cannot find any bends.
Is there any way to go about this in Inventor? Perhaps using some other method than a Sweep? Any method that produces a flat pattern
I would like to make a aluminum framed panel template that I can enter in the height and width dimensions and then save the panel assembly into it's own unique part#. Right now, when I design enclosure, I will have multiple sizes of framed panel and I typically have to manually change the length and width dimensions for the individual extrusion members, then change the panel size manually. I re-name the new extrusions and panels to avoid file name conflicts. Is there a way to simplify the process?
Like I said before, I will have multiple "section"(SEC) assemblies in each main assembly file.
I attached a zip file with my aluminum framed panel assembly.
I want them to appear as a one of the choices in the box after you click NEW (part, drawing, assembly) asside of standard options?

The only thing even close has been a user who already knew how to do it and was having a different problem. I am using Inventor 2012 and Excel 2003 and have very little experience with VB. I currently have a family of assemblies, consisting of two parts linked to an Excel spreadsheet to control the various parameters for each variation of the assembly.
I need creating an iLogic rule that will:
Go to a specific tab (I have four different tabs/worksheets) in an Excel spreadsheet.
Make a specfic row of that worksheet the current row based on the part number used to generate the models of the assembly shown in a .dwg.
Use the contents of a cell in that row (text or numeric or a combination of both) to generate a custom iProperty for the .dwg template.
Use the custom iProperties to fill in the title block of the template.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the Default.ivb I have created a function that creates a new panel and adds some buttons in the panel.
I see the panel and the buttons, but nothing happens when I click on them.
The documentation says that in order to listen to the events of my buttons I should declare a "Private WithEvents ButDef As ButtonDefinition", but it when I try I get an error message "Only valid in object module"
Another question, still related to the events, I would expect to find a _StartUp event where I should run my function, but I can't find that event.
I would love to be able to customize Inventor 2013's user interface to make it look more like the older version of Inventor. You can do that with AutoCad Mechanical. You simply change the view to "AutoCad classis" and those annoying "panel bars" go away and you get a pull down screen.

When creating new surfaces, the default visibility is translucent and color is black. I'd like to customize the default surface feature settings to appear as opaque and grey. Can this be changed in Application Options, or Document Settings, or perhaps the registry?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe default format for a radius and diameter dimension is inserted with a prefix "R" and diameter symbol ahead of the measured dimension. Our company standard pre-Inventor was to place either "RAD" or "DIA" after the measured dimension. We can not seem to find anywhere in the setup to change how these type dimensions are inserted as a default or custom setting.
Can we change/customize the radius and diameter dimension formatting?

I designed these pipes that intersect each other in AutoCAD but that program doesn't seem to do much else other than drafting.
I want to open a pipe design so i can print it out, paste it on a real pipe and cut the end out. It's pretty much sheet metal development.
Attached is one of the many pipes. I have Autodesk Inventor FUSION 2013. Does that have any such features or do I have to get the Professional version?
it is possible to make such a part from sheetmetal in order to create a flat pattern with Inventor 2010?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to utilise the Layout Element: Reference System to draw the grid lines and grid values on paper space viewports.
But.I am working in South Africa. The WGS Lo systems are opposite to the northern hemisphere, positive is heading south not north. To solve this, most drawing offices (including ours) just reverse the signs of X and Y values.
Now you can see why I cannot use the Layout Element Reference System templates provided with Map. I need to change sign the X and Y text values.
How do I create a Reference System Template?
These are provided with Map:
Latitude-Longitude
Military Grid Reference System
United States National Grid
Custom map coordinate system
I tried to use 'Custom map coordinate system' but it is a fixed template, it does not provide change sign as needed.

My target: in AutoCAD pops a dialog, select filename (related to our internal projects) string, then it will create a DWG file from a template DWT file. Then some operation like insert elements into the DWG file and then SAVE (with the filename assigned).
Here is the code I currently implemented:
class DWGWritter
{
const string TemplateFile = @"C: empMyTemplate.dwt";
[Code]....
Well it doesn't work on either of #1-4
#1 give out "eFileInternalErr" exception, which I found the answer - you can't call save() if it's open from exist file
#2 works ... but it just save the contents we write to the database but won't save template file contents, ie. we have put in layers inside the template file but they doesn't save to the new file
#3 give out "drawing is busy" error, no clue why it's "busy" ...
#4 give out same error as #3
I was wondering if a template used to create frames using the create frame tool in autocad civil 3D should have the same datum, projection as the files that are being referenced? Or is the template independent from from the reference files and does not need any datum, projection setting applied to it?
