    How to open more than 1 .idw at a time

    remember You'll need a quadro card or other good grapcics card to open multiple drawings, or else inventor will come messy and crash

    Cheap CAD card finally?

    Hi! Now there is old elsa 32mb card, what really sucks. I tried Gf3 ti200 128mb, and it was very fast in 3D, and also 40% faster in 2D than elsa. But now i found "PNY QUADRO 4 NVS 50...64MB" video-cad-card wich costs only 100e! Have anyone tried this model? Didn't found that one from autesk's...

    Part list fields

    Again troubles with those iproperty fields. We have used the Authority field in our parts and assys and now it should be seeing in part list of assembly. Only problem is that it's not in the column chooser list. Same problem in the design assistant, half of the fields are missing. This is in...

    We're expanding - any tips?

    You should get some inventor professional to get you going with stuff (you have to decide how to fill ipt fields and so on and so on. No inventor course can prepare you that!

    Laptop for inventor

    I was thinking Acer Aspire Intel Pentium 4 512MB DDR 333-muistia 17"TFT - SXGA 1280X1024, nVidia Geforce FX Go5700 64MB Specs seems better than M60, and price is just good, 1500 € (e) Battery lasts only 1,5hour, but that's not broblem, only unsure thing is that FX go5700 seems superfast&good...

    Laptop for inventor

    Hi! I was wondering that what brand/model of laptop would be best option for mainly inventor usage? It's not for huge assys, but it would be good to use reasonable display Hz (75 or 85 Hz) and atleast middleway details. I'm little confused, cause I think that best laptop-videocards are...

    project file

    I saw some diagram about opening process of inventor. It seemed that inventor looks files from workspace before workgroup. Then I noticed that we use workgroup instead of workspace..is that wrong? All invertor models etc. are in server and the path is same for every computer ( k:\blabla) Only...

    Inserting subassys from other projects?

    Why not as a library-path? It would be more safe, to prevent accidently editing parts from another machine.

    Inserting subassys from other projects?

    Is there any way to insert .iam/.ipt to assembly so that you don't need to browse the folders, only to write the part number, like 123-21111.iam (same as filename) to somewhere and invertor would search it from other project's folders? Maybe some plugin or settings definition??

    Inserting subassys from other projects?

    I would like to know what are the options to be able to insert subassemblys and parts (.iam & .ipt) from different projets(also in different folder) to another project's assembly? example: h:\design\projects\projetct323333 (assys from here h:\design\projects\projetct444333 to here)...

    Lenght of arc in 2d mode

    Thanks! I don't understand why the dimension doesn't always show, after pressin the "lenght arc" option. It worked in a new part, but not in old, maybe it's coz of the old part was created with Inv5 Problem solved, thanks!

    Inventor slow in large drawings

    As weird it might sound, but I noticed that the pc's PS was making high-tone noise every time cpu was 100% When I changed the Power, loading time reduced from 3:40 (min:sec) to 2:20 or something. Also when I copied the assembly to local HD it reduced the time about 30 sec. Maybe we should buy...

    Inventor slow in large drawings

    We are doing layout from 3 of our machines. These machines has about 200 parts each (100 unique) We have made wax models from those machines( converted to single .ipt and broke the link) Now the 3D world is fast enough, no slowing or anything, but when making drawing, uhhh! Making anything with...
