AutoCAD Inventor :: Edge Of Cylinder Not Projecting Using Project Geometry
Mar 27, 2012I'm trying to project an edge of a cylinder in a "detail" view. Here's the process I'm taking. Click the view and pick "create sketch", then I pick "Project Geometry". Then I pick the edges of the cylinder I'd like to project and it only projects one side. I can select the edge, but when I right-click and pick done it won't project it. It appears to me that it's only allowing one edge of the same object to be projected. I've tested other objects and it seems to only do this with cylinders.
Is this a setting or a bug in 2012?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Project Geometry Perpendicular To Sketch
Aug 20, 2013I have an existing sketch and a new sketch onto which I want to project some lines from the existing sketch.
The panes of both sketches do not run parrallel.
Normally a projection is created by imaginary projection lines from the existing sketch to the new sketch perpendicular to the new sketch.
But now and want to project the existing sketch with imaginary projection lines that are perpendicular to the existing sketch.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Hide Project Geometry From Model Sketch -> DXF
Mar 6, 2013Is there a way to hide project geometry from model sketch? I am modeling a sheetmetal part where I need to sketch centermaks, part number etc. for laser cutting. I want to use xy planes for symmetry reasons when sketching, but I don't want them to appear in dxf. This is a problem if I create a dxf directly from the model.
Usually I create dxf files from drawing by adding new sheet where I create flat pattern view from the spesific part (excluding machinigs etc, only thermal cut boundaries visible). In the drawing I am allso able to show model sketches and hide unwanted project geometry. Is it possible to include these sketches to dxf?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Window Select Sketch Geometry To Project?
Nov 9, 2011I am unable to select Sketch geometry via a crossing window to project to a new sketch.
While in the new sketch if I select " Project Geometry " I am only able to select one line at a time. quite tedious for some of my larger projects.
I can not honestly say that this feature was available in previous releases but it seems to me it was. Am I missing a variable somewhere?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Automatically Project X-axis / Z-axis Or Z-axis Onto Sketch Plane?
Aug 25, 2010Is it possible to automatically project the x-axis, z-axis or z-axis onto the sketch plane?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Shared Sketch Generates Sketch Doctor Error - Feature Suppressed
Sep 21, 2011I've created a shared sketch and have used it with various features. Sometime those features are suppressed. The model works fine but the shared sketch generates a sketch doctor error because the feature that created it has been suppressed. Is there anyway to make the sketch suppressed so it doesn't trigger a sketch doctor error? Inventor 2013
View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Copy Part Sketch Into Drawing Sketch
Sep 20, 2012How do I duplicate the 2D line work from a part level sketch into a drawing level (overlay) sketch?
I started a simple 2D piping system diagram sketch by opening a new part file and using a sketch to stick draw the system schematic including some annotations. Then I opened a new drawing file and made a base view of the part file to bring a view of the original sketch into the drawing.
I realize now that it would have been much easier to have created the schematic directly in a 2D sketch at the drawing level, which would have made editing the annotations much easier at the drawing level, and there is really no need for the part file to exist. I have no intention of creating a 3D model or "real" part in the .ipt file, was just using it as a jumping off point to sketch.
I was thinking that I could correct my error in judgment by just copying the sketch and pasting it into a new sketch on the drawing, but it doesn't want to work that way. I have tried copying both the whole sketch at the browser level, and the entire sketch contents (all of the lines and annotations) from the opened part sketch, but when I attempt to paste either of those into the drawing, paste does not seem to be an option. I'd rather not have to draw the whole thing again, as in typical fashion, my once simple sketch has grown in proportion and complexity from its simple beginning.
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Sketch Point Data From Sketch Entity
Dec 3, 2013I was trying to query some sketch points data from a profile Path using code as below. However the program stopped without telling the reason.
Code below:
i = 0;
foreach (ProfileEntity oSourceProfileEntity in oProfilePath) { switch (oProfilePath[i].SketchEntity.Type) { case ObjectTypeEnum.kSketchArcObject: { SketchArc srcSkArc = default(SketchArc); srcSkArc = (SketchArc) oSourceProfileEntity.SketchEntity; // error points[i] = srcSkArc.StartSketchPoint.Geometry; break; } default: { SketchLine srcSkLine = default(SketchLine); srcSkLine =(SketchLine) oProfilePath[i].SketchEntity; // error points[i] = srcSkLine.StartSketchPoint.Geometry; break; } } i++; }
AutoCAD Inventor :: Converting 3D Sketch To 2D Sketch From IGS File Using Wires?
Aug 1, 2011First we imported an ".igs" file to inventor, which produced "wires". Then by promoting the wires it produced a 3-d sketch.
The model is in one plane and 2-D, and we are trying to use Ansys 2-D analysis, but in-order to do so it needs to be in a 2-D sketch.
The model is too large to be redrawn on a 2-D plane, how to convert it to a 2-D sketch

I have tried to go through the same steps, but I can not select the inside of the rip to built hems and flanges on. I also tried to make the cylinder by sketching 350 degrees of the cylinder instead of creating a rip, This had the same problem.
Why I can't select these edges or how I can work around it?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Telescoping Cylinder Won't Stay Together
Sep 7, 2007I have a telescoping cylinder that someone else modeled. It has an extended and retracted positional rep. I want to make it free moving so that is will move in and out inside another assembly. I can get it to move freely and stop at it's extents using contact sets. My problem is that when you jump from a retracted position to an extended position the center rod "escapes" from the housing.
