I have an assembly I created in Inventor 2014. I need to export file so it has a "3ds" file extension. Not a "3ds Max" file.
Someone needs to look at my assembly and cannot use the file if it is a 3ds max file. It just needs to have .3ds
Thanks
I am using Inventor 2014. When I am in some drawings, and I choose to Edit View, then go to Component Tab, under Representation, there is a box that can be checked for "Associative". Even when I start off using the base view, I cannot check this box. It is greyed out for all views.
Is there a...
Using Inventor 2012, when creating a presentation drawing, I right click on an object and pick visibility to turn off an object. This works and turns the object off. However, if I go back to that same object and pick visibility again to make the object visible, nothing happens. The objects...
I recently had to move from one computer to another. Old computer has Inventor 2011. I installed Inventor 2011 on new computer. I moved all my Inventor files from old computer to the new one. On the new computer, once I am in Inventor, if I open an existing assembly that I had on my old...
Sorry. I may have left too much up to interpretation. By thin end, I meant the end that is protruding out. Just like rollupswx had shown. Other than, I do not want the profile added onto my end, I want my end to be punched to form the half moon shape for a hose to be placed on. If possible...
On the thin end, I need to punch a half-moon shape so a hose can be slid onto it.

I am using Inventor 2011. I am trying to take a flat piece of sheet metal and stamp a small form onto one end. The purpose is to be able to slide a 3/4" ID hose over this end. The end would have a small arc profile to it so the hose slides on.
Would I make some sort of ifeature with this shape...
In Inventor 2011, in a part file, on the ribbon, under model tab, in the modify panel, I pick "Thread".
No display comes up.
I wanted to add an external thread to a rod.
I just recently updated from 2010 to 2011, and I had the display for the "thread" come up in 2010.
Is there a setting...
After having the same trouble in several drawings, I did end up closing Inventor, restarting the computer, and getting back into Inventor. That worked!!
Thanks
I am using Inventor 2010.
In a drawing file, is there a command that locks the ability to move views on a drawing.
I am suddenly not able to move any views on a drawing. Cannot click on view and move someplace else on drawing.
Is there a setting that got accidently changed?
Thanks
I was working in Mechanical Desktop 2008 this morning and must have done something without knowing.
Now when I go to open a drawing it does not show me directories, instead, in the command line it is asking me to enter a file name.
Somehow I lost where it shows a drop down menu of directories...
Using Inventor 2010. Having troubles with the content center. Specifically with trying to insert fasteners. When trying to insert a bolt, the following error occurs: "Unable to successfully update the member part file. Problem occurred when setting thread data".
It then always inserts a very...
Having the 1st line of the title in one iproperty and the 2nd line of the title in the 2nd iproperty may be what I could do. How do you create a 2nd iproperty for the same title block?
I am working in Inventor 10. Have a title block that I input the title by going into "iProperties", then "Summary". I then input the title.
Is there a way to have one line of the title on one layer, then another line on another layer?
This way, at times, when plotting, I can turn one line of the...
I am new at using the Inventor Design Tabs in Inventor 2010. I am trying to use the Roller Chain command and have created a chain across 2 sprockets. However, I thought it would show this as a chain with links. Instead, I only have the option to show it as a solid (simple sweep feature) or as a...
Thanks for the help. I saved to sat, then imported in AutoCad, then saved as dwg.
I am going to send it to customer and see if that's okay.
I was going to do the same for a Inventor Presentation drawing, but I see you cannot export to a .sat from a presentation drawing. I guess he won't get an...
No. The customer is using some sort of presentation program that he uses my 3d image to do a presentation with. He said that his program can use a 3d .dwg file.
If I can't make a .dwg file from the .iam, I'll have to see if his program can use a different file extension.
His first preference was...
I have a client who needs one of my Inventor Assembly drawings so he can work with it in a 3d program. He needs a .dwg file.
Is there a way to save an Inventor Assembly File (.iam) as a .dwg?
There is nothing in Inventor's "Save Copy As", or "Export".
This client needs to work with a 3d autocad...
