AutoCAD Inventor :: Picture Becomes Too Dark?
Apr 27, 2012
My Inventor screen picture became much dark as used to be.
For example all my aluminum parts became too dark and too grey.
My office machine has excellent picture within the same settings of Lightings.
Here is video link attached. If I set more Bright the picture becomes closer as used to be but it used to work fine at 50% and my office machine is also perfect at 50%
Either it about the setting of Inventors or my videocard ?
I've got this problem after the successive series of program crushes.
There is only Inventor has this "dark picture" problem. Other programs works fine.

When I export my work to .jpg format all is OK. All looks fine on desktop. But when I try to print it there are several dark pixels allover the picture. It looks like snow or TV noise. I tried different picture fixing programs, but nothing... How can I remove that noise?

I'm working on a drawing for a part and am getting annoying flickers from light to dark. What I am seeing happening is that everytime I pan or zoom (in or out) the drawing, the drawing lights up, and remains lit up until I move my mouse cursor over a view. When I do so, the entire drawing turns dark and remains dark until I pan/zoom the drawing again. So I am getting a constant dark - light flicker that I find very distracting.
I am only seeing this in this one drawing, however I do remember having this problem previously. In other drawings I have done, they will either be light (which I correspond to being normal) or the entire drawing will be dark. This I read has to do with the lighting in the source part file, but it never really bothered me.
Im on 2012 Iventor Pro, and Windows 7 Pro. 64bit with SP1.

My goal is to get it so that I can just turn on realistic visual style and ray tracing and be able to get usable screen shots for product datasheets/ marketing material without having to resort to rendering in studio. (If possible and I think it should be) All my products feature a black powder coated enclosure (think DVD player shape/size). When I enable ray tracing all I basically see is a black blob with no good definition between surfaces,etc.I'm assuming now that I need to do 2 things #1 increase/modify lighting and #2 modify the colors in the style library to work better. For that black color in the style editor I basically have all 4 colors (ambient/diffuse/specular/emissive) set to black. Is there something I should do to allow "more realistic" colors instead of just all color options set as black? I've gotten very decent renders from studio that worked just fine in the past but I've got roughly 400+ screenshots that are needed now for new products. I can play around with settings till I'm blue in the face but I was just looking for tips to have a decent baseline to start with.

My friend has taken some engagement photographs and unfortunately the couple have dark hair and the background is also dark - I think you can see her problem with the photos. Somehow the background needs to be lightened and neither of us know how (we both have Photoshop 7)

I am working on a form (global) and have added a picture with a parameter and a picture folder underneath. So that the picture displayed on my form will change depending on the parameter value.Here comes the trick. Only text parameters can be used!On the form editor only 'Text parameter' can be selected to drive the picture selection. I actually need an integer, so that i can use my User/Excel parameters from Inventor.
I can work this around with an iLogic rule to equal the value of my string Picture Parameter with the relevant integer Inventor parameter, but the rules need to be run before the pic and the form updates (by pressing the 'Apply' button at the bottom of the form and then the assy updates too. So this takes a couple of minutes)... whereas if it was an option on the form editor then the update would be instant without waiting for everything to update...
Is there a particular reason why the Picture Parameter only can be a text parameter?

I am working in inventor 2013. It's been a while since I learned inventor and have not worked with it in a few years. I'm not even sure if the capabilities exist.
1. I want to be able to create a new "material" from a picture. Specifically from a piece of fabric that I have that has patterns on it. I'm not sure if I should turn the picture into a material or if is should use shrinkwrap or if there is something that I don't know about that would be a better option.
2. Is there any way to make opposite sides of a piece different colors? Example, if I build a wall, can I make one vertical face black and the opposite vertical face silver?
3. Is there a way to do a "flythrough" or "walkthrough?" I've heard of programs that let you create a path through your model and then have the camera follow the path. Does inventor have a similar capability?
4. Back to materials; what is the best way to change the appearance of multiple surfaces in a model? Is the bill of material the best place to do this? I was hoping that there would be a way to do one thing and have it change multiple pieces of the model. I know that with dimensions you can say that one dimension is always equal to another, but is there a similar function with appearance so that I could change the appearance of one piece instead of having to edit every single piece.

i want to use pictures with my forms and was wondering if i can use them like the way i showed in attached image.
the CaseA image is the one i can currently use and CaseB is the way i want to use. My reason to do this is, i have alot of parameters to change and having both the picture and a menu below/above takes alot of space which also seems redundant.

I have a small problem with iLogic forms picture folder. Is there a way of seting the image by the selected tab ?
I want to update the image by the tab selection.
I have tried "if" or "select case" and neither one worked. as I am saying Stair_Properties = True it only makes the tab active. It doesnt indicate if it is selected, here is the code :
If Stair_Properties = True ThenImage = "Image 01"End IfIf Railing_Properties = True ThenImage = "Image 02"End IfIf Riser_Properties = True ThenImage = "Image 03"End If'Select Case Image'Case Stair_Properties'Image = "Image 01"'Case Railing_Properties'Image = "Image 02"'Case Riser_Properties'Image = "Image 03"'End Select

I have a company logo that I would like to make 3D. I am guessing I can't just import a picture and extrude it. But I would like to know at least how to import a picture so I can at least trace it in a sketch and then extrude it. How can I go about that?

I'm trying to insert a picture into a word document I'm generating from Inventor ETO 2012. By default, the picture seems to be set to word wrap as inline, which makes Word give it a low priority and hide it behind all text. All I want to do is change the wrap style to Square.
Using Microsoft's site, I found what i believe to be the proper style setting. [URL].....
Autodesk's guide for using WordPictureWriter: [URL]....
No matter what I change style to, absolutely nothing changes. It is always set as inline.
Code:
Child StationPicture As :WordPictureWriter, Quantity = NumberofStations
Bookmark = "InsertPicture" + stringValue(child.index)
Placement = :Replace
style = "wdWrapMergeSquare"
PictureFile = nth(child.index,PictureFiles)
End Child

I am writing the tutorial and would like to use shaded pictures taken from IDW in the Microsoft Word.
I cannot export these pictures to the vector format due to this shade mode as I use to export the AutoCAD dwg to metafile.
The jpeg, png and other SaveAs give me the IDW background color which actually differs from white.
how to export pictures without this background color or just any other way to do it in better way.

I´m trying to plot a picture with a hatch marking a area on the picture. I´m making a overview of the picture with the hatched area on it at scale 1:10000. And then i make smaller plots in scale 1:5000.
My problem is that depending on the scale the color changes (it´s darker in 1:10000).

I am trying to locate the image over the glass surface.
But once picture is located over the glass the Decal command makes my picture transparent.
Is there any way to make it not transparent?
So far it works only with not transparent substrate.

Age old question; Title Block Creation.
I took an existing title block out of another document and pasted it into my 'standard.idw' file, modified it, made it the default title block and it looks pretty good. Problem is, having saved the 'standard.idw' file it saved it under a project header and now everytime I open said new drawing I get the error that it is not part of my existing project. Obviously.
Is there a way to create this file, with my new title block and not get this error, supress or have it projectless?
Also, with that in mind my other problem, which I am sure is related, is that I put an image in my title block, which gives me e error that my picture is not located in the current project. Currently I bypass that one by hitting skip and it still retains my image, which is fine.
These two things together are slight annoying but I can live with it until I deduce a way to kill these errors.

I'm having problems with lineweights. It shows up too dark whenever I plot to both pdf and the printer (Kyocera KM-2560 KX). Ive tried adjusting the ctb file (changing thicknesses of colours) but to no avail. This problem does not occur for my colleagues, with exactly the same ctb file. So is it a general autocad setting problem?

why my xrefs are coming in really dark ? I like to have a black model space so it's really hard to see them. There must be a setting somewhere.

When I have a drawing open in AutoCAD LT 2012 any xrefs are very dull or perhaps dark is a better description and on a black background tend to be very difficult to see. Is there a setting somewhere I can change to brighten up the xref?

I have inserted an xref but when it shows on my drawing the whole thing is shaded dark. When I look at the xref the colours are fine, until its on my drawing. I inserted it on its own layer.
Does it matter what colour I assign to that layer? I tried different colours but it changes nothing. What does that allocated colour determine?

When I either attach or overlay my Xrefs they always appear dark in my drawing; is this normal? If I open the file (that I am xreferencing in) it is very clear.

Multiline text appears dark with a true type font. I have searched the boards and changed the Z coordinate to "0" manually, as well as the flatten command....still no luck. The text was generated from the QLEADER command, but the problem also applies to text created with MTEXT. I have attached the .dwg.

I am working on my electrical plan with the floor plan xref'd. I am able to get the entire floorplan to plot lighter using the 25% saturation feature in layers. The walls print ghosted, but the hatch that is on the same layer as the walls stays dark. I tried creating a seperate wall section All layers on the floor plan dwg that are xref'd in are the same in the layers dialog.
