AutoCAD Inventor :: Import Surfaces From Old MDT File?
Oct 4, 2013All I can get is 3d lines or ACAD_PROXY_ENTITY. Since the newer versions of IV did away w/ MDT I don't have any way of converting them.

View 6 RepliesI have come across a problem where I import a step file. And it brings in a false surface that is not supposed to be in the file. When I highlight the base of the solid it only highlights what it should (not the false surface). The surface cannot be extrude cut or removed.

I have an STL-file that i need in an assembly to check if the machine that i'm building isn't to small.
I can import the STL-file in the assembly without problem, but i can't use constraints on it to put it in the correct place of my machine.
The STL-file isn't seen in the IDW - drawing.
I have a 3ds max file that the company i work for needs to get into inventor. I have tried exporting the file to .sat, .iges, and .dwg file an none have imported the assembly into inventor properly.

By the UI, you can import the BOM structure via an XML file. Is it possible by API ?

Is there a way to successfully import an assembly from NX to inventor, if so does it include all the original sketches and feature history that created the parts, or is that not possible?

I want to import the parameters from the .ipt file into the .iam file using a rule from iLogic (unless there is another way to do it?)
I pinched the code from the example hand rail iLogic part that comes with inventor and tweaked it to suit. After inputting the code shown in the image, when I click OK I get a 'fatal error' of some sort.
I need to Import a IAM file with Views and Positions to Showcase. I found several tutorials on this, but as soon as I add a position in Inventor none of the above are imported. Without any Positions, Views get Imported.
It's Inventor and Showcase 2013.
i have made a iLogic Module who, whit an external rules, import the iProperties value from an external exel file.The exel file is connected from SQL with the our managerial software.This in the external rule:
i = GoExcel.FindRow("Z:DISEGNI_INVENTORDescrizioni.xls", "Descrizioni", "Cod.Art.", "=", iProperties.Value ("Project", "Part Number"))iProperties.Value ("Project", "Description") = GoExcel.CurrentRowValue("Descr. Articolo Princ.")'iProperties.Value("Project", "Project")
[Code] .....
It's work fine but i have same question. There is some string to refresh an iLogic Module? When i push the ruel button the rule add the custom value in iProperties, but there are disabled, i have close the module an reopen it for correct display the value of the iProperties.
this module work with single parts. Can I do an rule who do the same thing of my string but in one assembly, do this for every parts of assembly automaticly??

How to get surfaces in a dwg to display correctly in inventor 2012? (just upgraded after SP1) I keep getting random results. I have a seat from our supplier translated from solid works brought in as a composite (converted in inventor 2011). I have assigned colors to faces and in the part/assembly environment it is fine, as soon as it is in a DWG it goes randomly transparent! Some times it is completely see through and others you get an odd face displaying correctly! Even in different views on the same sheet different faces appear normal.
Attached jpegs are: surfaces in dwg and surfaces in an assembly.

After you create a drawing view, surfaces can be included or excluded from drawing views. Files that contain only surfaces automatically include the surfaces in a drawing view. Is there a way to disable this functionality?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to revolve a sketch between two surfaces in Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012. The problem is that the extrusion is being created on the opposite side of the two surfaces that I want.
For example, I have two flanges on a cylinder. I would like the feature to be created to stretch on the lower side, the larger angle, where the sketch is. Instead, it is creating the feature on the upper side, the smaller angle.
I have adjusted everything I can within the revolve feature options, including unchecking "minimum solution" and switching the starting and terminating faces.
In the attached file I am attempting to revolve "Sketch 7" about the x-axis, between the two flanges closest to the "top." The sketch is centered on where I want the revolved feature to be created.
I am using 2013 and my construction surfaces keep displaying in my drawing views. They are hidden at part and assembly level and include surfaces is greyed out but they show as visible in the feature tree in the idw, and in the views.
Is there a setting somewhere to stop this. This is from IDW. They should not be visible.
I have successfully opened a STEP file from our Engineering group and saved it away as an Inventor Assembly. I would like to define Materials and/or Surface finishes for all parts. Why wouldn't the Surfaces and Materials synchronize between the Styudio's Surface Creator and the BOM Materials Control in the Assembly area?
I have found the way to define a new Surface in the "Inventor Studio" Interface and saved it with a unique name. Now, I would like to assign that Surface as a Material to the parts in the assembly ... and of course I would like to define numerous other surfaces and materials for assignment to all the parts throughout the assembly. Finally, I would like these surfaces / materials to follow the model into Showcase for presentation purposes.
I have placed the views but whenever I want to include all surfaces from the history tree they appear for 1 second and then they disappear.

The floor of the plant is split into different faces to denote walkways etc.
When i saw they were missing from the drawing i thought it could be because i haven't 'included surfaces'.
I clicked on include surfaces on the model and it worked!
However, when the green arrow update finishes, they disappear, and the include all surfaces box is unticked! i didn't untick it, so what did?

I want to make symmetric surface i.e. golf ball with dimples. I found that I can do them by using revolve cut but how can I set them symmetrically on whole spherical surface.
