    Inventor's Version of Revision manager?

    Hi DominicG, I went from Solid Edge to Inventor a year ago, and the equivelant to Revision manager is Design assistant as rollupswx says. But it's not as efficient as rev. man. in Solid Edge! The Vault is more of a database containing all your projects, parts and assemblies and their revisions...

    SQUARE TO ROUND TRANSITION

    Try making a square sketch with tiny rounds (0,1) for the square sketch and loft it to a sketch with tiny traight lines and big rounds for the circular top(it appears to be round but the edges may help the program unbend the cone)

    Part-Draft Linkage

    You should ALWAYS use Revision Manager when renaming files linked to a draft, it will save you from a lot of future heartaches. If you open the draft in Rev.Man. you get a list of all files linked to it and their path ;-)

    Using Light Studio settings when rendering

    My experience regarding direction of the texture is to make a copy of your material and rotate it. -Eg. The texture for threads are fine in holes, but on bolts you get links thread (turning left instead of right) so you have to make a new texture for each new direction you need in the material...

    Drafts for quotes

    Yes Kenat, But the features are mobile now so it's still possible to delete unwanted features (one By one) and get all the parts out of the "assemblypart"

    part cutout question

    Man kan jo også skrive en hel masse på dansk, som ingen kan forstå, det er vel derfor der ingen liv er på de hollandske CAD forummer, if you write english, someone else may learn a few tricks, we have no clue whatsoever and it makes it harder to help you... ;-)

    Any major issues with Version 19?

    I also encountered that issue, I got over it by removing the attribute for the folder (and everything in it) -Dont'know why but it gets set somehow.. Minor issue: Pos numbers generated by the draftlist show up, the ones I put in manually only show the baloon, no text(even if it's linked to the...

    Creating part from an ACad File.

    Onefjef: it doesent allow it because the lines are not connected when converted from Autocad. -maybe the converter should allow one to choose to connect lines. -But it could be tricky since autocad lines are not connected to start with... -But it sure could be helpful (and I could grow hair...

    Creating part from an ACad File.

    With larger sketches you could try relationship assistant under tools>dimensions. Under options check the place geometric relationships and connect (the more types of relations you add the longer it has to calculate it) uncheck the place dimensions, and accept. -Then you select the area of the...

    Transfering autoCAD into a Solid Edge sketch

    Yes, or you can open an AutoCAD in draft, and then use the create3D function in the Tools menu. -This enables you to swiftly import left,right and top view as sketches in the part.
