Trying to use for the first time.

What am I doing wrong?

I have a stupid question... do you have a file open?

[Anonymous]

Yes. it is a .ipt file from a tutorial

[cbenner]

Can you post a screen shot so I can see what you are (or are not) seeing?

You can't post files via e-mail, if that's what you're trying to do.

Use this button:

Is INV maximized to take up your full screen or are you running with INV less than full screen? The reason that I ask is that I wonder if the part file windown was collapsed and it is "below" the bottom edge of the INV application window?

If you forget the tutorial part for a minute and click to create a new part, do you see a sketch window?

Hi Kumar53,

Another thing to try is to press: CRTL + 0 on the keyboard.

For some reason, on my system I have to use the zero key on the top row, and not the one in the 10 digit keypad area, in order to get this to work.

CRTL +  0 simply toggles the Clean Screen option (Go to the View tab > Clean Screen button.) Sometimes we accidentally hit that key combination and turn on clean screen without meaning to.

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

Chris:

I think I have a hardware issue with the graphic card. I am going ask someone to look at that. I will get in touch with you Monday.

Thanks for your help.
