AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Use Edit Button On Nailboard Tab
Nov 15, 2011
i have 2 questions re: nailboard drawings.
When i try to use the edit button on the nailboard tab in order to add dimensions to the harness sketch. the environment changes and the harness sketch disappears. This makes it hard to dimension using the harness dimension button.
Secondly, i have modified the harness in the model and then saved the assembly. Why does my nailboard drawing not update after the save. (it recognizes that changes have been made) Deferred update is set to off. The nailboard drawing is useless if the updates are not automatic.
......alright i have 3 questions......i want to show the wire id near the stubs. i displayed properties but only one of 2 wire id's showed up. Has this got something to do with pick order? How can i get INV to display each wire (id) number?

I'm trying to create button with macro to edit existing text in place, with predefined text with macro .... For example, existing text is "Old text", and I want this text (or whatever I select) to edit in place with click on macro button to change it to "New text".
I have been following a tutorial in modelling a helmet, which is meant for beginners to learn the software well.
I know that I have already ask this, but I want to rephrase this better.
I can't find the "reset setting" button from edit on My maya 2014 software.
The reason the tutorial is using the "rest setting" is to adjust the width, height and depth of the cube I have out there by using numbers as its measurement.
I don't know if there are any other buttons that can do the same job, or is there another way to find this button... I can't progress my learning until I know what to do about this.
I had this installed on another computer prior to it being stolen, got a new laptop and installed on it. I am running windows 7. When at the welcome screen i click on Edit and the little bar changes and acts like it is going to start but then does nothing, it just takes me back to the welcome screen. I did find one thread on here and tried those recommendations by holding down the ctrl, alt, and shift while clicking edit and then choosing yes but that didn't work.
I'm using P&GD2013. I draw with a wacom tablet and use the freehand brush tool in sketch mode with pressure enabled. I want to edit the properties of the brush . The help pages are quite clear except that I can't access the dialog box because the 'edit brush' button is greyed out.
I followed the upgrade procedures and the projects appear in the projects list but they are empty once I enter them.I noticed a workspace icon appears next to the edit button the first time a try to launch a project. See attached screenshot. The only choice there is workspace.
I am growing increasinly frustrated. I just installed AutoCAD LT 2013 on my laptop. I managed to get everything customized the way I want, except the button icons on my (classic) toolbar are much too small. If I go into the menu and select 'use large icons', they are too huge. My screen resolution DOES NOT need to be changed or adjusted. I went to the help menu to see what I can do, and found that I can go into CUI and adjust the size of the button icons that way, via the button image editor, however there is no 'button image editor' dialog box when I select any given toolbar command.
Is there a way to put a message box in an ilogic rule that gives information to the user but does not require interation to turn it off. Say on for a few seconds then dissappears?
I've created several (4) ilogic rules and want to run them by pressing a button. So I need a form with 4 start buttons. Can I create this with Ilogic in Inventor 2011 or do I need to be VBA expert?
How to disable F1 button in Autodesk Inventor 2014?
I use ESC many times and it happens too often when i press F1 instead of ESC and then the whole help opens (either from hard drive or it opens my internet browser and loads up a page), its really annoying.
I tried in. "Tools" > "Customize" > "Keyboard" and sorted it with "key" but there is no F1 there.Also i changed category to "help" and to my suprise there is not a single key assigned to any of help command.
Then why still F1 opens help and makes my life harder than its already?
I am new to the ribbon and am having trouble putting more than one button on the same ribbon. I have two addins that both have buttons that need to go on the drawing>Place View tab but I can only see one button. If I put them on different tabs they both appear, what is my problem?
I have came across a couple that require you to use the design tab but I do not have a design tab. I then try and use the add ins button to intall it but when i click on it, nothing happens.
How to create a ribbon with a button. I am creating an add-in for Inventor. I am trying to put this code in the Activate Sub but it's not adding the ribbon once I open a drawing. Just trying to use this example to get me started.
public void AddParallelEnvironment(){ Application oApp = ThisApplication; // Get the Environments collection Environments oEnvironments = oApp.UserInterfaceManager.Environments; // Create a new environment Inventor.Environment oNewEnv = oEnvironments.Add("Some Analysis", "SomeAnalysis", null, null, null); // Get the ribbon associated with the assembly environment [Code] ..........
I made a significant change to an assembly that messed up several constraints. I fixed all the constraints using the red cross button but the local update button is still lit up and won't do anything when I click it.
How to set to ProgressiveToolTip.Image Property for my new Inventor add-in ?

I've created a button that I've implemented into inventor. However I am at a loss as to how to create an icon for the button. I've read all the articles i can find (such as)

I've restarted the program and the computer multiple times but to no avail.
When I select "Start Simulation" from the Add-Ins tab, nothing happens. The hourglass comes up for a split second, but nothing launches. We have Simulation 2012 Mechanical installed on the machines. I have tried with both parts & assemblies. Obviously we can launch both applications separately but it's nice to go back and forth using the quick launch.
The machines are both Windows 7 Pro (latest service packs) as well as Inventor & Simulation 2012 (Product Design Suite Premium to be exact.) Inventor has the latest service pack SP1 installed. This did work in previous versions of Inventor.
I've checked everywhere else for a solution but none apply to me it seems. My keyboard shortcut for returning to the home isometric view (F6) is not working. F3, F4, & F5 all work fine. I've tried returning the cursor focus back to the model window and that doesn't work. I also made sure the shortcut is actually listed in the Customize menu, I even reset all to default in case something was changed.
adding a button to "Export" tab of Application Menu of Inventor. I am using Vc++.
The information that i found is from UserInterfaceManager i could get CommandControls and add a button/ Seperator here. Need to add this inside the "Export" tab.
I sometimes create parts while working in an assembly. This hasn't been an issue but something mysterious happened. Once I create my new part, to get back to the assembly ( turn off the transparency)
I typically press the Return button which is normally in the first tab (this example shows I created a sheet metal part)but for some reason the return button is now in the inspect Tab??I tried looking through the customize ribbon form and can't seem to put the button back into the first tab?
