AutoCAD Inventor :: Second Line Of Fields For Text Are Missing For One Half Of Welding Symbols

View 2 Repliesit's possible to export informations stated in "tailing note box" from all welding symbols? The reason why I'd like to do it...it's because each weld in the drawing has his own number and I'd like to be able to work with these weld numbers in MS excel. It means I'd like to be able to export all the weld numbers and also to change these weld numbers in the drawing via MS excel.

I was working with inventor 2010, and i am want to link surface roughness symbols and text. so that they will be grouped together.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using a symbol that includes a several text boxes. Each text box includes "prompted text" and "drawing properties". When I insert the symbol onto a drawing, the "Edit Property Fields" menu appears. In this menu, I can input my prompted field text or see the various "drawing properties".
My question is, how do I change the order that these property fields are displayed? It seems as if it depends on the order that the text boxes were created while defining the symbol definition. Is there any other way to change the display order?
I have a weldment assembly. It is a subassembly under a main assembly. In the 2D drawing of this main assembly, I tried to indicate the welding symbols for the subassembly assembly. The "Get Weld Symbol" is grey out.
How can I indicate welding symbol in the 2D drawing?
I have been toying with the welding aspect today and cannot figure our how to glue two parts together the way I want.
What I have is two pcs of 1.5" SQ tube (from content center) one with the face butted up against the side of the other. The weld will show on the top and bottom (straight sections) but will not fill the edges where the radius's from the tubing is (are?).

I have a simple welding assembly: a plate and a cylinder (boss).The boss has a through-hole of 0.3125.The plate has a hole of 0.332.The boss is welded to the plate with the holes being concentric.
I tried to perform a machining operation by creating a sketch, projecting the geometry of the holes, and creating a threaded hole at the centerpoint projected.
The thread size I had selected was 3/8-16, and this is where I run into the issue. When modeled, a tapped 3/8-16 hole measured 0.307 (which I assume is the threads minor diameter). Obviously, 0.307 is smaller than the two concentric holes and Inventor is unable to create the tapped hole.
According to the tapped drill size chart found in any machinist reference, 0.312 is the required drilled hole diameter to tap a 3/8-16 hole. Am I missing something as how to create this tapped hole after welding in Inventor?
I know I could make the holes smaller on the Plate ans Boss, but then they would not accurately depict what is being made in our shop.
I just tried the weldment in 2014 and welding bead looks plain, like a simple chamfer. Is there any way to make it looks more realistic like 2012?

My question is: How do you make drawings for your different welding stages? When making my acquaintace with welding environment, I have encountered following scenarios:
I would like to make a drawing of an individual part from assembly, with preparations visible. This can be done by choosing preparations-state of a weldment assembly, followed by choosing a part from a pull down-menu. However, parts list still refers to whole assembly whereas I need only that one part. No worries, I’ll just hide those I don’t need.
Machining-stage produces a drawing where all previous weldment stages are visible as well, including preparations and weldings. Drawing used for machining the welded structure shows a lot of things that doesn’t need to be there, such as grooves. Empty grooves even, if I didn’t bother to define the actual weld beads there. I suppose this is as designed, but looking the assembly with the machinist’s eyes who would only see filled grooves, I would like the ability to choose if I want those stages to show or not. Again, parts list shows every part of an assembly. Guy who does the machining requires only the assembly level information.
I imagine that deriving the welded assembly would solve some of the issues.
I am looking for a way to add a welding symbol to an existing fillet weld. When I am creating a fillet weld, I get a chance to create a welding symbol based on the fillet weld size.
If this is not done when the weld is created, there is no way to add this notation. I don't have the "Create Welding Symbol" checkbox when editing an existing weld. The only solution is to delete the weld and recreate it.
I am trying to link the welds in the iam with the weld notes in the idw.
I was looking to change the fonts in a drawing for the Dimensions and Symbols that might have been inserted in the Dimension text entries.
This can be done manually bu editing the dimentions text after placemement, but I was ooking to set this as a default.. I cannot see where exactly this is controlled in the Styles Manager - I am only able to change the Dimension text font but the diameter symbol font is always on AIGDT.
I was therefore looking for an iLogicvb code that could do the trick, but I am not able to even change the dimension fonts... The code runs with no errors but nothing gets updated in the drawing...

oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

I have this odd problem that when i want to do welds on a assembly, the machinng (holes) disappear. So i cannot put welding between a pipe and a hole made in a weldment.!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried (and failed) to create a fake slope label for line.
I've put in what I thought would be the correct formulas for it, i.e. rise/run.
This would mean putting Z1-Z2 / length, all of which you can get from a line.
But the result comes back showing the X, Y and Z coordinates divided by the length, even though I've only ticked the Z values in the co-ordinates.
I just finish the installation of Inventor 2013 SP 2 and I have some bugs... a lot of line is not visible in my .idw !

My office has two desktop printers, both HP. Our Officejet 7000 wide format prints great. On the HP Officejet 7500, we are often seeing text printing errors. It will not print the text from vertical dimension strings, and cuts off some M-text at an imaginary vertical line in the middle of the text box. PDF's of the same drawing look fine. Is this a printer driver issue? Is there anything I can do within AutoCAD?

When the modify dimensions box is open, the 'roundoff' menu gives me 1/16", 1/8" etc, even when DECIMAL is selected as the unit format.
This wasn't happening earlier, not sure what's going on. [in fact in a solved problem from earlier, a colleague found a drawing that had units set to millimeters, had its insertion scale set to inches! Different computer, so not related].
I'm using AutoCAD LT 2012 and our client doesn't want/like sheet sets.
One item I'd love to have is the pg. number automated. In the current title block it's just text not an attribute. Is there a way I can take only a part of the file name and insert it as a field?
For example, the file name is DW_12321_12.dwg the last part of the name is the sheet number. Can I exclude everything but the 12 and insert just that into the field?
