Why cant I acess the bolt connection fatigue calculation tool?

[fce]

Hello,

I have a problem acessing the fatigue calculation panel in the bolt connections´ tool. Whether I press enable or disable I simply can´t acess it. What should I do to access it?

Thank you for your attention

Hello Francisco and welcome....

Please indicate what version of Inventor you are using as well as the flavor (such as professional).  This will help us to figure out what's going on.  Screen shots are great too.

Hi there,

I am using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2014.

About sending a screen shot, it is not necessary because absolutely nothing happens.

Whether I click to unable or enable fatigue calculation and then the fatigue tab, nothing happens.

But what other information would be useful then?

Best Regards,

Hi patrick.barretto,

If you click the Calculation tab first, and then click the Enable Fatigue Calculation button, does it become active then?

If not do the side and bottom bars on the Calculation tab dialog become red indicating an error? If so clicking on them to expand the side and bottom panels might help you see the calculation issue.

A screen shot of the Calculation tab might help us see what you're seeing?

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