Stress Analysis - new simulation

[Anonymous]

hello, I am having trouble trying to find the "create new simulation" on stress analysis. I was able to add in the stress analysis, but once I click it, all the options are grey and the "create new simulation" is not there. I'm confused and tried to search the web for a solution, but nothing comes up.

Hi! It looks the the Stress Analysis environment was not properly loaded. Try this. Go to Tools -> Add-Ins -> find Stress Analysis -> unload and reload. If it still does not work, go to All Programs -> Autodesk -> Inventor 20xx -> Tools -> Inventor Reset Utility. It will reset all settings back to install default. But, all UI customization will be lost.

Many thanks!

No?

Students are entitled to Inventor Professional.

I suspect that the answer is really, Yes.
