Ability to move iMate glyphs

Ability to move iMate glyphs

When creating iMates, the positioining of the glyphs can sometimes be inconsistent.

 

 

For example, when placing an iMate on an axis, it places the glyph on a location quite far away from the area where the axis was selected. While technically the glyph position is correct (adjacent to axis), its location was not consistent with the design intent.

Thanks for sharing your Idea. We use this forum to guide product development and help users in the best way we can, based on voting. We occasionally merge Ideas or archive old ones to keep the forum working properly - it ensures there is room for people to review new Ideas and that the most relevant and meaningful ones can gain votes. We’re archiving this Idea because it's been on the board for well over a year and hasn't received many votes from the community. If you want to raise it again and try to gain more support, you're welcome to do so. We’ve found that pictures and mock-ups can help get concepts across and win more votes from other users. If you have questions or see a connection between this Idea and others, let us know. - Inventor product team (Inv.idea review)

I just came across this issue in V2024 and am surprised it has not been resolved.  I now have several imates superimposed! :confounded_face:
Dear Autodesk, if the Idea station is legitimately used for developer resource allocation then I think the policy of archiving feature requests after 1 year of inactivity is ignorant, your product spans 2 decades and many of these ideas are in reality long standing bugs that you have a responsibility to the subscriber to resolve.

Furthermore the onus should be on Autodesk administrators here to combine similar ideas where appropriate to ensure the vote counts are accurate. (it should not be left to the user to locate all the similar ideas and vote for each one!  this would provide a true reflection of user preferences)

Just going to leave this IDEA here if anyone wants to vote for it.
