AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotation Translation - Get Circumference Of Wheel To Rotate 360 Degrees
Dec 23, 2013
I have Autodesk inventor standard NOT the pro version. I am a Revit professional in dire need of learning Inventor. My exact steps are as follows:
1. Open assembly
2. create component - (simple wheel(cylinder) with an off axis hole in the middle so I can see if it is rotating.)
3. create component- flat surface.
4. constrain the cylinder to the flat surface via a tangent constraint
5. constrain the cylinder to the front edge of the flat surface via a mate constraint.
6. go to motion tab in constraint's, click rotation-translation, type in 10in for distance.
7.wheel does not rotate on surface like a wheel should. There is no affect of the surface on the wheel rotation.
In other words I want to get the circumference of the wheel to rotate 360 degrees as it travels pi*diameter of flat surface.

I would like to show the motion of this assembly as it goes up, and rotates.

how to make this Clamp Rod to Clamp Base Spacer Turn relationship.
this is from the Clamp Project on this site: Inventor Wizard, The Clamp Lever is turning or rotating the clamp rod into the Clamp Base Spacer but I could not simulate the Thread or the Screw motion if that is the term, or the 1 or 1/2 turn of the Clamp Rod to 1 Pitch movement, plus I can't seem to put the Rod inside the Clamp Base Spacer hole when the Contact Solver is ON, maybe modeling issue on my part.

Pt# 812 (From my drawing)
N: 2004294.63
E: 6057287.18
Pt# 715 (Stake point from a DXF file)
N: 254.39
E: 218.59
I built my drawing from the civils. I wanted to check the points that the surveyors are staking with a DXF file. As you can see from the above two points, our coordinates were wildly different. I brought the DXF file into my drawing as a block, and translated and rotated it to match my drawing. I had to drag it several miles, but no problem there.I imported the as-staked point file to a new group and dragged them up near my drawing, but the drawing was getting a bit crowded by then. So I made a block of all the imported points to make it easier to translate and rotate them to match my drawing and the overlayed DXF. After exploding the block of points, the points showed up in the new group. Anyhow, here's my questions:
1. How do you renumber(offset number) imported points? The option I saw was only for duplicate points. I wanted to offset them all.
2. How do you translate and rotate a large bunch of points without turning them into a block?

We use a lot of #4 finish Stainless steel sheet.
I have automated the changing of the active renderstyle to "Polished Brushed" to approximate this, but usually orientation is important. For instance, the texture will be around tube, and on large sheets, we want to keep all the sections orientated one specific direction.
I'd like to be able to easily rotate the texture thru 90 degrees (and possibly, a user selectable angle).
I'd prefer not to have to manually select a face first, either.

I am trying to create a wheel that can be rotate about the horizontal axis. It should have a hole for axle to fit through. However, when I try to do this it will not let me select the horizontal axis to rotate about. I also tried to rotate about a center line that I created but it wouldn't do that either..

I am animating a ball right now, that is rolling all over the place. Would be cool to animate just the translation of an object and not to worry about rotation. Is there a way? Like.. through the expressions or set driven key? Also would be even better if rotation speed increased as the movement speed did.

My current goal is to specify the rotation and translation of an object using a text file full of numbers. I have been told that I should import a "move" file. However, I can't seem to find any kind of reference about the move file format or how to use it. I see in the import dialog box that there is a file type called "move" but I don't know how to format the data that I put into the "move" file.
Also, I tried to export a "move" file so I could take a look at what Maya generates, but I keep getting the error "// Error: Could not save file "C:/My Documents/maya/projects/body_in_ocean/scenes/examplemove.mov".
I created a group with my object in one file, referenced it in my working file, moved the group around and set some keys in the working file, but I can't seem to export any move data. How to get this to work?

This is just a basic block to specify a section plane. What I would like to have is a BPT with 4 rotation options (0, 90 180, 270) that would rotate the whole block but it would keep the text upright and be able to stretch the ends of the arrows. I know I must be including/not including something important. Pointers on how to do this

Needed to rotate my plan 180 degrees. So I typed in UCS enter then z enter then 180 enter and then plan enter. My plan rotated and it looked fine. I noticed my crosshairs where now green and red. I needed to add more things to my drawings but the lines I was drawing do not look straight - they look bent and the ucs icon doesnt look square. I attached my drawing for you to see what I am talking about

After I have rotated an entire floor plan drawing 180 degrees, the texts and room names have also been rotated upside down.What is the solution to the problem so that the texts/room names will not be upside down after I rotated the drawing 180 degrees?

Attached is a dynamic block for a civil grid tick. It's my first time creating a dynamic block so it's probably not the most efficent use of the dynamic parameters etc.
I have it setup with 4 visibility states to allow the northing and easting attributes to "rotate" about the center of the grid tick, to give options for readablity and/or text overlap.
What I wanted to add was figure out how to make the individual attributes flip 180 degrees about a point (roughly the center of the attribute). Again this would be for readability.

If you type some text on a curved path is there a way to find out each letters rotation in degrees? Maybe in Illustrator? Any known scripts? Besides individually adding letters then rotation them to the background curved text layer.

I used to do this all the time. Now I cant remember how to do it properly, if possible a screenshot of how to do the maths in the Parameter wiring box. Getting the circle to travel along this line without scripting.
What should have been a 5 minute job has turned into about an hour.

Been working to get the wheels to rotation for 14 days or more and finally i hit the wall now.
I linked it with gizmos and could rotate left and right and move it forward and backward everything works very well. I also used wire parameters and linking the gizmos.
The other way i made it was with motion controllers, position list, position xyz, rotation list and ruler xyz and, i did add couple of those and i also used wire parameters, it also worked very well.
BUT, doesn't matter which i use, as long i rotate the wagon more then 180 degrees, the wheels rotates backwards, How to solve that without using max script, path follow nor splines or lines.
I want to move the wagon by moving 1 gizmo, dummy or point and keep the freedom without linking it to spline or lines.

I've created a drawing in model space, added text in paper space. When I go to plot the drawing the text is rotated 90 degrees instead of staying oriented the way I added it. There must be some setting that I am missing somewhere!

In my work i rotate objects mostly 90 degrees CW or CCW and I always wanted to make a hotkey for it.. There's a command in 3dsmax called "RotateCW" for it, but it doesn't work when more than one object is selected.. also i tried doing it with script :
macroScript Rotate90Z
category:"DragAndDrop"
toolTip:""
(
(
rotate $ (angleaxis 90 [0,0,1])
)
)
but this rotates objects only about their pivots even if option "use selection's center" is chosen and even if objects are grouped - it rotates objects in the group independently but not the group as a whole. It's completely inappropriate.
Normally i select objects (or a group), then go in "select and rotate" mode, type in 90 degrees and it works well. So i'd like to imitate this behavior by a script or some other way to set a hotkey for this set of actions..

VS ProX4 allows us to rotate a clip by 45 degrees. I need to just sightly rotate it (1 degree or less). It can be done very easily with other editong softwares; I guess it can also be done with ProX4.

I am trying to rotate 30 degrees along an axis.
In Rhino, it is simply using Rotate3D -> pick your axis of rotation -> type degrees -> enter
In Max, how do I pick an axis rather than world XYZ?
I'll upload pictures for details

I can find image rotate easily enough. But I can't find any way I can rotate it a few degrees. I frequently scan stuff in and it frequently needs 1 degree or such to straighten it up. I used to do that with Paint Shop Pro. Surely Gimp has the same functionality?

I like the custom print package in LR, but cannot find a rotate option other than 90 degrees. Am I overlooking, the option doesn't excist or I'm using it not the right way? I searched this forum and the Internet with no results.
For example in picture below I would like to rotate the 4 smaller photo's 45 degrees
