https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/path-array-in-a-2d-idw/m-p/13415058#M2210 <P>Salutations, I am using IV 2025. I would like to make a path array in my 2d .idw drawing. Is it possible to pick a curved path to array on in the 2d .IDW sketch mode? If so how do you do it? It would seem I can pick a straight line for the path but the the array function does not respond when I pick the curve. Thanks in advance.&nbsp;</P> Tue, 08 Apr 2025 15:47:21 GMT a_gasper9QT5W 2025-04-08T15:47:21Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/path-array-in-a-2d-idw/m-p/13415058#M2210 <P>Salutations, I am using IV 2025.

I don't believe there is any patterning workflow in Inventor drawing except in the 2D sketch environment, patterning sketch geometry.</P> <P>It sounds like an AutoCAD workflow. If you like AutoCAD drafting workflows, you may use VIEWBASE to create associative drawing views to Inventor components. Then annotate the views using AutoCAD draft tools. When the Inventor components update, AutoCAD will update the drawing views accordingly.</P> <P>Many thanks!</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 08 Apr 2025 21:46:50 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/path-array-in-a-2d-idw/m-p/13415610#M2211 johnsonshiue 2025-04-08T21:46:50Z
