Insert frame 2016 problem

Anonymous — Mon, 13 Mar 2017 10:03:16 GMT

Hello, I have another problem with the insert frame tool in inventor 2016 student version.

When I want to make a frame, I created a 2D sketch in a part, saved it and placed it in an assembly. But when i choose all the lines. choose square tube and press apply and ok, 1 square tube is flashing in the screen and nothing else happens... I attached a few photos.

Hoi Pieterjan,

The pictures are not really good to see.
Can you port your ipt and iam file?

Looking at your last picture, it looks like you have your parts set to offset very far away (~3200, and ~234,234) from the lines. Zoom extents and see if your parts aren't showing up way out in space. Set your offsets to be 0 for all three fields and see if they show up then.

Hope this helps,

Kenny

@Anonymous,

Did this solve your issue? Please mark as a solution if it did.

Were you able to get your frame in place? Post a finished image, too!

Best of luck on your project,

Kenny
