    Deleat a part in a sub assembly within a sub assembly

    Just picked this up within SW2013 which has the potential for disaster if not aware of it. Its already cost me a lot of time in rebuilding some assemblies. If a sub assembly is within another sub assembly and you clicked on any part of the sub sub assembly and pressed deleat the whole sub...

    Saving a part and drawing as a new number

    I know the answer to this is on here as I have seen it before but search as I may I cannot find it again I want to take a drawing and a part and I think using design assistant save them both as a new number with links to each other. The idea being to make minor changes to the part and then just...

    Extrude a sketch

    Inventor 2011 When I make a single or multiple sketches when I select extrude inventor requires me to go back again and select all the areas before it will extrude This is like doing the job twice If I did not want it extruded I would not have sketched it! Its not to much bother on a small part...

But I cannot...

    Gear from toolbox question

    This seems a bit strange and maybe its more a gear question than toolbox but I am checking if anyone has any insight into this before I look stupid by putting a fault line into Solidworks. I have been looking at a DIN helical gear MOD 2 40 teeth PCD of the model is about 113.5 which is for...

    Flattened Tube

    One of the common methods of bracing is a steel tube with each end put in a press and flattened and then the flat end drilled or slotted. I have modelled this as a series of extrusions fillets and domes but it never has looked quite right. Has anyone ever done this and what approach did you...

    Distance Contraint

    This is one of those non vital but extremly annoying things Does anyone know what the criteria is in Inventor that determines if a distance constraint is a negative or positive amount. Logically it should be that it will be right 50% of the time but I find the error almost 100%. In other words...

    Title block templates

    BrunoA started a thread earlier about this subject and I was not sure about starting another or jumping on the end of his. So apologies if incorrect. Can the scale be entered automatically.

    Mirror Components

    I have a large structure of around 400 components that is symetrical about a centre line. It makes sense to mirror these about a work plane placed on the line of symetry. This is in Inventor 2008 If I use the green button to Mirror the components and in doing so create new files it works well...

    dimensioning an elipse

    I am probably overlooking something obvious but when I try to dimension and elipse in drawing page it says cannot convert to line or arc thus I cannot finish my design because I cannot get the dimensions on the page. All advice appreciated. SW2007
