Hi,
For the same topic I am wondering how to encircle a dimension in inventor drawing, like for inspection purpose.
thanks

Something like this? (See attached)

Yes, exactly like that for inspection purpose. But I do not know how to get this edit dimension dialogue box ? Is that because I am working on version R8 of Inventor ? Also, How can I get rectangular box like for GD&T tolerancing ?
Thanks

> Also, How can I get rectangular box like for GD&T tolerancing ?

Have you had any training. Why are you using a software that is 7 years old? That is ancient in computer years.

I can't remember back that far to remember what was in the software.

Hello rollupswx,
in fact I only had a 2008 book training with R8 Inventor software. That is the only version I may have at home. What I have notice with your attached picture you send me is I don't have the tab tolerance and inspection when I edit a dimension text thus I think is was not available for that version of the software at that time.
Thank you for feedback for that matter.

Open Inventor..Press F1..Type in "inspection dimensions" if nothing comes up its not included in R8 but I would think it is.

Just incase you didn't know you can install the same software you use at work at home as long as you don't use both at the same time and your employer approves doing so.

rollupswx,
Thank you for the manual "Becoming an Autodesk Inventor® Professor in 90 Minutes".
I am starting Autodesk Inventor soon. My company's management has approved the purchase.
Can use all the information I can get my hands on.
A star for you.
