Hi, all
Im using frame generator, i create my skeleton part, start up frame generator, select my frame types and connect them to the lines, press OK, accept the default filenames then get this error:
[WARNING] Frame Generator: Errors occurred during inserting Frame Member(s)
[WARNING] Insertion of frame member(s) failed
[ERROR] A frame member could not be created. The template file for ANSI ANSI AISC (Rectangular) - Flat Bar Steel could not be located in the Content Center library.
and no parts are put in the assembly.
I have updated the content centre etc and installed all the latest updates. I have also reinstalled Inventor and The local content centre but the error persists.
Ive included a couple of screen shots that show the error.
Please help as frame generator is useless until this is fixed and i need to design some frames.
Thanks for help in advance.

Hi cmharb,
You might want to check your project file and ensure that the Conent Center libraries are configured/included for it.
See the Configure Content Center Libraries topic listed under Procedures at this link:
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

Here's an image of the Configure dialog I found in another thread, you should see the ISO library listed as shown:

Yea they are all there.
The Bolt generator and Content Centre work fine, I can even insert Frame parts from the Content Centre but not using the Frame Generator

the content centure is on the vault, and doesnt show size etc.

Probably a problem with your Vault settings then.
