Am I correct in my understanding that there is not an easy way to create revision clouds?

Hi Jmetal,

You are correct that it is not part of the default install. However, we do provide an optional install that does create a revision cloud. Go to C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2013\SDK and install the UserTools.msi. After installation, click the AddIns tab when you are in a drawing and the Revision Cloud command is available in the Drawing Tools panel.

Cheers,
Paul (autodesk)"

Thanks

Not sure why it's not working for you. Ran .msi as admin and restarted?

It should appear under add-ins > drawing tools > in a drawing

I have it working in 2012, 2013, and 2014 - it's not great, but it works.

Hey,
I got it to work. Apparently I needed administrative access to complete the install.
Thanks for the reply.

Yes you do 😉

Glad you got it working.
