Is there a setting to not have adobe Photoshop round up or down to the nearest full number? My X-rite scanner reads in the hundreds and I would like more color accuracy.
I read here that humans can't see any difference smaller than 1. I disagree, maybe 1 in the L value, but a and b seem to be a little less.
I have user parameters that are no longer needed and are not being used anywhere. They each takes 4-5 seconds to delete, prior to 2012 this would happen instantly.

I need to convert a model parameter to a reference parameter thru the API.
I saw this item discussed in the group before, but I cant find the thread.
Is there some super secret option for making fractions in the drawing environment round up to the nearest, for example, 1/16th? There has to be, there just has to be.

One of the users on mCADForums discovered this bug.
"I have a value of 3516.41mm and I want to round it to the nearest whole number.
I have tried to use the round command and it seems to round up to the nearest 10 so 3516.41mm would round up to 3520mm. So how do I get would I go about rounding to the nearest whole number?"
I suspect this is due to Inventor's internal units being cm. However as we specific "a" to be in mm and "b" to be in mm this should not be happening.
Way to round decimal dimension values to the nearest 1/16"? For instance, 43.0599 would display as 43.0625 (On a drawing). Tried playing with tolerances, but thought it would be better addressed as customization.

"I cannot set the "parameter" for the End Value in Parameter Animate dialog"
For easy understand, let's see a example:
1. I got a part which has two parameters named: "A" and "MaxA"
2. I animate Favorited parameter A.
3. The End Value is MaxA_ (Everything is ok)
4. I finish Studio environment, then I change parameter MaxA_ from 200 mm to 400 mm
5. I turn back to Studio environment, the End Value now is "200 mm" (I want this will be MaxA_, so I can animate the flexible parameter).
show me how to keep the end value will be "MaxA_" after I change parameter?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to publish to the CC a guide rail. The vendor of the rail gives me the option of entering the desired length of the rail. After that he gives me the option to choose between the length that I entered and a shorter and longer standard length witch can be delivered faster.
I want to do the same thing with my published part, but I cannot make a key parameter to change depending on the entered custom parameter. I want the user to make the next steps when inserting from the CC: 1- select the size of the rail; 2-select the type of the rail; 3- enter the desired length of the rail; 4- choose between the desired length and the 2 recommended lengths (I need these 3 lengths to be shown)
Is this possible?
in Autocad it was easy, in dimension style I could set up dimensions to be rounded to 5 ot 10 or any other value.I now need to set dimension to be rounded to 5mm (5, 10, 15, 20 .......). And I can not find a way to do that.

Right now I extend the rectangle but the edges also extend.
i need one ilogic or macro for sketch. i have one sketch in this sketch having lot off dimensions so all are having upto 4 decimal place values.but i need rounded value like above .51 is 1 and below .49 is 0 like this .
simply like this 4.56 is 5 ans 4.49 is 4 like this type of rounded value i dont want precision value.like nearest to after coming single digit number.
I need to use the dimension created by an action-parameter as a variable in a user defined function but AutoCAD will not allow me (see attached).
How may I access the action-parameter's dimension ?
it is possible to use a user defined parameter to drive a action parameter.
I have several polar and linear stretch actions i would like to drive from one parameter.
I am building a Crankshaft. How to build the connecting weights that attach the main journals to the connecting rod journals. I can post a screenshot of the design. I have a extruded face that is a half circle on the top.so I am trying to fillet or cut a section off of the rounded edge. I have tried to build tangent workplanes and projecting geomety, but to no avail.

I used the rectangel tool and it always makes the photo inside out. I need it to round the edges not hide the photo. Is there a way to show the middle of the photo and then make a frame like they did on the website?

I know of DIMRND, but how is it possible make acad round dimensions UP (within a specified value) instead of to the nearest?
(This could be very handy to make various lengths of wooden baseboards and other mountings fit to machine cabinet standard lengths. I'd like to keep all the work in acad, and avoid ms-excel.)
My "Nearest" osnap is not even close to snapping to my circle. All other snaps are working fine, nearest snap are working on lines and rectangles, not at all on circles.

there is a way I can get NEAREST snap to work on the multileaders?
END and INT (where leader crosses other entities) work but cannot use NEAREST.
Can use NEAREST on normal leaders though.

I am looking for a way to get my dimensions to round up instead of to the nearest.
For example... when I have one line that is 11-15/32" and one that is 11-17/32" and I need them to round up to the nearest 1/4". I want it to round up, showing 11-1/2" and 11-3/4" but instead i get 11-1/2" for both.
I'm using VB.NET to write a routine that autmatically calculates the area of the polyline nearest to a block (the pline surrounds the block) an then adds the area to the blocks attribute.
I managed to write the program to do this manually for a selected pline and block.
How can I automatically select a pline nearest to the selected blocks' insertion point?
in Inventor 2010 we can save and load iLogic Paremeter with *.xml and just in my opinion we can control parameter using *xml or html. It's right or false?

I need to extrude a simple shape between two planes and then get the length as a parameter. Is there anyway of generating this? All I can find is a parameter for the angle of the extrusion.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have generated frame that has 100 members in it. Is there a quicker way of changing G_L unit to a mm so that I don't have to go into all 100 parts to change the custom properties?
Also I do not need unit string to be appear in my BOM.
I set a dimension to a 2dline. The dimension is automatically added to Model Parameters. How can I find , by code, the line which length is driven by the parameter ? Or, starting from the line find the parameter which indicate its length ?
::GetDependents(), nor ::GetDrivenBy(), nor ::GetParent() gives me the answer.
I'm trying to get a parameter value from an Inventor .dwg file, but I keep getting an error saying the file is not found. I use this same code all over the place between different parts but its the first time I'm tried it using a dwg. Can you not access an Inventor .dwg parameters using iLogic .
MsgBox(Parameter(ThisDoc.Path & "MyDrawing.dwg", "Customer"))
Sometimes I change the dimensions of a material I use but then I have to open Iproperties and change the description by hand. This can create problems as you can understand especially when I forget to update the Iproperties.
Then I had the thought to automate it. Lets take a steel bar as example. I have thickness and width as parameter, both are exported and available under IProperties/Custom. But they show as 200 mm and 10 mm. I would like to loose the units. I tried also UL but then it reads 200 ul and 10 ul.
What I like to get are just the numbers, no units. I like to use it to create this "steel bar 200x10" where the 200 and the 10 are linked to the Parameter and will change when I change the dimensions av the steel bar.
I created a *.iam file. And from this asembly file, I need run some rules in *.ipt file.
I use
Parameter("PartA:1", "d12") = d12
to give d12 parameter in my assembly to d12 parameter in *.ipt. It works.
But I need get parameter in the *.ipt file after running the rules in *.ipt.
so, I put
d13 = Parameter("PartA:1", "d13")
following above line.
But everytime, I just be able to get the result before *.ipt run the rules, not after.
I noticed the rules in assembly were compeletely run, then run the rules in *.ipt. So, the result is not correct.

I would like to have the material, color etc. as parameter so i can change it with an ilogic form.
In this video you can see what i mean:

When I make a ilogic form i can only select parameters and iproperties.
Is there a way to use the filename to drive the parameters of the file?
Example: I have a cube that is called 4x4x4.ipt its dimensions d0,d1,d2 are 4,4,4 respectively. I want to rename it to 4x4x6.ipt and have the dimensions d0,d1,d2 resize to 4,4,6.
