interference and tangent edges default to show on

[ferrisb]

Good Morning all,

I always have to show interferance and tangent edges for our drawings.

Under edit view.

I have to select;

Display Options,

Then I need to activate Interference and Tangent Edges.

Is there a way to set this as the default on view creation.

-thanks

You need to make the changes in the template file. 

Open template file(default locaation is C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2011\Templates)

Place view

Edit view

Make changes

Delete view

Save file

How do I do this in a blank template file?

Is this possible?

You can't.. gcoopers suggestion works with some things but not what you are asking about.

I know it used to work for me in Inventor 2016.

I don't remember haw I managed to activate it.

Now I have 2017 and it is not working properly.

It is not showing the tangent edges in the first view, but is showing in the following views. Why??

Please look at the screencast to understand what I mean.

Thank you.

It's now 2018 and this still hasn't been resolved.

Has anyone written an Ilogic to do this?

Hi Guys,

I think there is a little bit misunderstanding how the drawing view options work. The drawing view options (Model State, Display and so on) persist on a per view type and per source doc type basis. For example, you create a base view of an assembly with hidden line removes but interference edges/tangent edges showing. The next base view you create from an assembly will retain the same options. But, if you create a view from a part, the options will need to be set again.

The behaviors are a bit subtle but they are there for a reason. If we let users configure the default options for all these view types, the current UI framework would require a nested and big dialog. It would be confusing and cumbersome.

Many thanks!

1. 放置视图->基础视图
2. 执行命令后不要点 [确定]. 在工程视图窗口->显示选项->勾选 [相切边] 后点 [确定]
3. 
4. 删除刚刚生成的基础视图
5. 再次 放置视图->基础视图 此时已经默认勾选 [相切边]
6. 注意: 建立默认勾选, 基础视图的.ipt和.iam文件, 需要各自重复上述步骤!
