My supervisor needs to view the autodesk inventor designs (I create) in his PC without installing the whole inventor package. Its something like using eDrawings to view designs created with solidworks.

In a drawing, How is one able to edit a view after it has been created? For instance the parent view orientation is locked, the child views are locked with respect to everything except the identifier.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have created a model on autocad which I have imported into autodesk inventor publisher...for my project I have to simulate an object's assembly and subsequent dissassembly. But to begin with my model is assembled so i have exploded it and now I want to put it back together - however I can't get the program to remember the position each component was originally in so when i try and move each component back it's all over the place and looks awful. Is there a way to mark an object's intial location so that i can move it back to exactly that place?

View 5 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?
I have created several different corridors (with different assemblies in them), but when I to to view sections the same assembly keeps showing up. How do the sections get updated with the new assemblies?

So, I finally got a 3d solid part published with the one attachement point (autodeskconnectionpoint). Looks great in object viewer with a pipe connected to it. However, put it in profile, and my 8' tall item shows like 1.5ft tall.
content file available, though this won't let me attach it?
My drawings contain active linework, civil 3D data (contours, etc.), and references.When a plot is executed without the publisher - everything appears normal. Specifically, all contours appear on plots and PDFs.
However, when plotting using the AutoCAD publisher (to batch many plots together, 70 or so plan sheets in 4 drawings) some Civil 3D data does not appear. Most contours are shown - however contours from a specific surface (existing ground surface) do not appear.
The publisher result is the same whether using a PDF driver or physical plot driver - these contours do not appear.
The style used to display the existing contours is used on other surfaces within the plot set - and oddly these contours appear on the publisher plot. However, no contours from this specific existing ground surface will display using the PUBLISHER.
Are there alternative ways to batch plot a set of drawings that I can explore without further cost?
How can I get/edit the properties (height,..) of a drawing view created with 'viewsection' command?

When the AI file was opened on a PC, the text fonts were not the same as originally created. Also, the same AI file was saved to PDF on the MAC. When the AI file was opened on a PC, there wasn't anything visible.

Hello all, i got a real bad problem with GIF saving in Photoshop : everytime i am saving a GIF file and then i import it in Publisher, i get an ugly white border around the object even though the object is perfectly cut using the pen tool.And i used every kind of settings available but no noticeable change.Also when i save in PNG the border gets a little smaller but it's still here.
So my question would be where does that come from, if it comes from photoshop then could you give me soome tips to get rif of it? Or is it just my publisher doc/impression settings?
I am an artist and have been asked to create 11 color drawings for a book. I created the drawings and scanned them to my iMac OS 10.8. I used cs4 to correct the color and crop the images. I saved the images in CMYK fomat and emailed them to the publisher. The publisher received the, is able to open the images and when they try to make any changes to the images they are not able to save the changes. I did make the images read and write, so they aren't protected.
My question is why are they not able to save the cropping changes they require?
Is there a way to get sheet number of the base view for the Selected Child view (Mainly for Section. Detail Views). Because the Section views, Detail views (initially they would have created on the same sheet where the parent is, then they moved to different sheets). So we place the parent view sheet number.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI started with a Left side view of a part and created a sectioned view right down the middle so you can see the insides from another view. the part is pretty big so i used a Break to shorten it to fit the page. I also placed a smaller and separate isometric view of the same part and want this view to inherit the same break. How can I do this? If I go into the display options of the iso view, all the cut inheritance options are grayed out and can't be clicked. I've seen this done before, but i'm sure i missed a step somewhere.

I have made an exploded view and placed it an a drawing. I would like to view inside one of the bodies to show where the exploded internals sit, however when I do a break out of the body the trail lines from the exploded internals also get sectioned. Is there a way to control the sectional properties of a trail line?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to Inventor 2014 we notice that the graphics do not work properly, and that the overall performance in drawings and modelling bad compared to 2013. Then we installed SP1 and now drawing views are disappearing, however when we select "shaded" view the view reappears and works perfectly..
Any workaround regarding disappearing views?
Sometimes when I try to create a detail view of an isometric view in my IDW, the "detail full boundary" option is greyed out? Why would this be? If I try an ortho view it works fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a long shaft with parts mounted on. i want to section it and show the parts. i don't need to show the whole length of the shaft.
I know i can crop the isometric view, but this way i will not see the key hole which is on the other side, it's hidden.
If i make a section it 's in an orthogonal view only.
I want to make the section view, but later to transform the sectioned view to an isometry. is it possible?
Is there a way to save a section view in the assembly as a view rep? Am using 2011.
View 9 Replies View RelatedEach time when I place a part in base view, have to follow few steps; go through view label, format Text, than choose type option - [Properties-Model] and its property - [Part Number], than placing dimensions. it takes long time and very repetitive, especially, when placing a hundreds of parts and I was wondering if there is an option, to set up view label; [Properties - Model ]& [Part number], as a DEFAULT. So, each time placing a part, in base view it will come up with correct label. Also, overall dimensions, can it be retrieve using parameters of the part?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a detail view of a groove on a cylinder. I want to dimension a diameter in which I only see one side, the other side is not in the detail view.
From some posts I see that I should auto insert a centerline then dimension from centerline then choose options "dimension linear".
First when I try to auto insert centerlines it does not insert the centerline for me. Perhaps because my detail is smaller. If I make the field for the detail view larger it makes a centerline, but I dont want to do that. I have tried making a sketch of the other side and the centerline. When I dimension from here I do not have the right click option of dimension linear, instead only arrowhead options.

Need to change the .ai file to something they can use in MS Publisher so they can still edit it.
I have tried everything and searched everything trough.. Can't figure out how to do it, or if it is even possible?
They wrote me this:
Normally when saving a program you also have the choice to import or export to a different document type, saving the original formats.
I need you to try and export the adobe files to MS Publisher format. We do not want to buy Adobe Illustrator. We do not want it used for creaing designs, logos etc as we need to be able to make changes at any time. PLease try exporting to MS Publisher.
Exporting the document should allow us to keep layout and formats without having to convert to eps and then import through an add on filter.
I would like the brochure and all art work done to date saved in this format.
How do I convert my Publisher newsletter into an In-Design file?
