Print "Current Window" should print the window

[karthur1]

When I am printing an idw and I use the print "Current Window" option in the print dialog, I do not get what I expect.  I have to zoom in on the area (and pan the view) in order to get the area that I want. In Autocad, it is much easier to print the view.  I have attached a PDF showing my results when I print in Inventor and Autocad.

Thanks,

Kirk

9 months and only 4 votes? I guess non-AutoCAD users don't know what they're missing.

Not only is the Current Window option faulty, but there also needs to be a print selected window option. Right now I have to use Snipping Tool to .jpeg to get the exact window I'm looking for.

As much as I liken AutoCAD to the Model T, this is one thing they got right.

I have the same problem on Inventor 2016. Designers that still use also AutoCAD have a very bad feeling from these kind of lacks in Inventor.

Still it is same in Inventor 2020

No enhancement about this.

"Select window" option is very necessary as AutoCAD has it.
