No Autodesk Inventor, o comando Medir (Measure) permite identificar distâncias, raios e diâmetros entre entidades do modelo. Entretanto, não há um recurso nativo que permita somar múltiplas medições sucessivas ou acompanhar um histórico de medidas dentro da mesma sessão de trabalho.   Essa limitação é especialmente sentida em processos de engenharia de produto e montagem, quando é necessário verificar distâncias acumuladas, comprimentos totais de peças, ou comparar medições parciais de diferentes entidades — sem a necessidade de criar esboços ou dimensões físicas no modelo.   Solução Proposta: Ferramenta “Auto Soma” A interface desenvolvida propõe um sistema interativo de medições acumuladas, com comandos simples e intuitivos: Medir: inicia o modo de medição entre pontos, arestas ou entidades selecionadas. Somar: adiciona o valor obtido à soma total, exibindo o acumulado em tempo real. Limpar: reinicia o contador de medições, permitindo um novo ciclo. Relatório: gera uma listagem completa das medições individuais (Med. 01, Med. 02, etc.) e o total geral, podendo ser exportado para arquivo TXT. Finalizar: encerra a sessão de medição de forma segura, evitando erros de automação. Esboço → Pontos: converte pontos de esboço em coordenadas utilizáveis para medições diretas.   Atualmente, essa funcionalidade já está plenamente desenvolvida e operacional, implementada por meio de automação personalizada no Inventor (Macro/VBA). O sistema foi testado em diversos cenários de projeto e apresenta desempenho estável e resultados consistentes. Caso a Autodesk tenha interesse, posso disponibilizar a solução como referência técnica ou protótipo funcional, contribuindo para que esse recurso seja integrado de forma nativa ao software e beneficie toda a comunidade de usuários.   Para explicar melhor o recurso segue vídeo tutorial:     Benefícios Técnicos Permite acúmulo dinâmico de medidas dentro do ambiente 3D, sem a necessidade de criar dimensões temporárias. Economiza tempo em inspeções de modelos complexos e layouts de montagem. Evita erros de anotação ao registrar automaticamente os valores medidos. Facilita análises geométricas rápidas, como cálculo de somatórios de distâncias, perímetros ou caminhos. Integra-se perfeitamente com a interface padrão do Inventor, sem depender de módulos externos.   Show More

Original Title: Custom section marks In order to follow my company's standards, I need to draw my own section mark lines. (See attached picture.)   In AutoCAD, we had a LISP routine to automate it - there were three clicks to input points. First click gave us the starting point, the end of the line with the circle. The 2nd click gave us the other end of the line. The 3rd click decided the direction the arrow pointed. After that, it prompted us for the section label ("A") and the sheet number ("S1").   I've figured out how to make the circles with numbers with prompted entries, but don't know how to draw the line and arrows without them being a fixed predetermined length and direction in a sketched symbol.   This would need to input similar to a leader line with multiple input points, which from what I can tell, sketched symbols are a single input point.   I really don't need for it to pull in the sheet number or section label automatically - I'm fine with manually inputting them with a prompt.     Original Author Anonymous from ‎03-13-2013 Show More

The current browser rename tool only allows Filename, Part Number, or Default. Please expand this to include more iProperties like Description, Title, Part Number + Description, or custom properties. This would save time, improve clarity, and remove the need for iLogic workarounds.   Show More

We need an object browser for iLogic, just like the one that can be found in the API window. This would make complex iLogic programming much easier, especially for beginners.   Original Author: mrattray   4/17/2013 Show More

Hello. This suggestion is based on my personal observations while migrating from Inventor 2023 to Inventor 2025. I may have misunderstood the new behavior or missed an existing workaround or configuration option. If such a feature already exists, I’d be grateful for clarification. Otherwise, I’d like to propose the following enhancement. In Inventor 2025, iLogic rules linked to the "After Document Opens" event now appear to execute not only for the main document, but also for every occurrence in an assembly and every referenced part in a drawing. This differs from previous versions (e.g., Inventor 2023), where rules were only triggered for the active document. Proposal: Introduce a filtering option in the iLogic event trigger configuration, such as: A checkbox or A toggle button next to each rule in the trigger list. This option would allow users to choose: ✅ Execute only for the active document 🔁 Execute for all associated documents (current default behavior)   Benefits: Gives users fine control over rule execution. Prevents unwanted or redundant rule execution in subcomponents. Preserves flexibility for workflows where global execution is beneficial (e.g., validation or synchronization across multiple documents). Improves performance in large assemblies or complex drawings. This change would offer better compatibility with previous versions while empowering users to adopt the new behavior when needed. Thanks. Vincent. Show More

For the love of Dog, institute an autosave feature. I use this software for business. Multi-Million Dollar projects. Constantly. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that when we get involved in projects, we get tunnel vision. Why? Because Inventor is incredible software and the design possibilities are endless.    However, you can't include an Autosave Feature?    As much as I love your software, I curse your name every time I'm building a project for a client and the software just decides to close. No rhyme. No reason.   The VERY least you can do while your software is so prone to crashes, it to allow your customers who spend ridiculous amounts of money to use your un-reliable software is to ensure we won't lose our work as we use it.   Make it happen! Vectorworks has that feature AND NEVER crashes. Show More

When dimensioning, once the "Edit Dimension" box pops up is it possible it could be altered so that you could simply start typing the name of a known existing named parameter? Better still, could you introduce a non-case sensitive combo box so that if you type, for example, "F" or "f" it would list all parameters that began with both "F" and "f"? Typing more of the Parameters letters could narrow the list further until you are potentially left with the parameter you were after, this could then either be clicked or selected by hitting "Enter".   It would also be good if this combo box (with less mouse clicks) approach could be integrated into commands such as Extrusion. In this situation you could immediately start typing the Parameter you were after in the "Distance" boxes.   Show More

Fusion shows very clearly if a sketch loop is closed by filling in the closed area. It makes it much more clear which loops are open or closed!   It would be great to have this option in Inventor!     Show More

Inventor Studioのタイムラインを直感的に操作したい。 Microsoft Excelのようにセルでアクションを管理できないか。 他の設定済みのアクション順序に影響を与えないよう「右方向にシフト」「下方向にシフト」「行全体」「列全体」を選択してアクションを挿入できれば良いと思う（添付：アクションバーの移動について）。 左側のツリーの表示名についても最小限にとどめ、極力スクロールしないで済むようすべてのアクションを一つの画面で管理したい。 また、アクションバーの移動についても自由度を高めて直感的に移動させたい（添付：アクションバーの移動について2）。 移動先に元から存在するアクションバーは移動してきたアクションバーに押し出されるように移動できれば良いと思う。 Show More

Hi,    Since you can change the line colors from the format tab. Can you make dimensions in sketch to apply to the same rule. I set driving dimensions and to color code the to red or any other color than default would be great help.    Thanks Show More

On numerous occasions I've ended up having to make very many splits in order to split a part into several bodies. Let's say you have a part resembling the letter E. Now, you want to split it into four different solids, so that each straight part forms a separate body. To do this you currently need to do three splits, when it's quite obvious that in the real world, one split would suffice. So, I want the split function to recognize whether or not the resulting solid actually is one solid or several, and if it's several, turn those into separate solids.   Similarly, if I want the split to only affect one of the "arms" of the E, I currently need to make an L or a U shaped sketch to isolate the arm first, and then use that for the split tool. If the previously mentioned function would be developed, it would be great if it also asks you if you want to extend the split through the entire part, forming several solids (or one "multibody solid", as now), or if you only want the split to extend through one of the solids to be broken out of the original solid and limit the split to that only.   Show More

Hi All,   It is a valuable to be able to extrude at an offset to the sketch plane / existing face / existing plane without having to create additional planes, improving the workflow when creating multiple extrusions within a part.   Reading through the forums it appears this has been previously implemented in Inventor (2018 - 2020) and then removed, for reasons that are unclear to me. It has been extensively discussed that this feature is very useful and seemingly it's removal has been met with some bemusement:   https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/extrusion-offset-from-surface-plane-or-sketch/td-p/776...   https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/no-extrusions-with-offset-from-faces-in-inventor-2021/...   It is a feature available in solidworks, and from my reading I believe in fusion etc.   I would like to suggest this is (re) implemented in Inventor to improve the workflow.   Many thanks,   Alfie Show More

Hello Autodesk team, I have a suggestion and question regarding Inventor drawing. When working with parts that include fillets, I often need to find the original intersection point of the two edges that the fillet replaces — essentially the theoretical corner point where the radius originates. Currently, the only reliable way to locate this point is by creating a sketch, projecting the two edges, and extending them until they intersect. This method works, but it’s quite manual, especially when checking multiple fillets or when I just need to reference that point for dimensioning or alignment in a drawing. Would it be possible to add a feature or tool that can automatically show or reference the intersection point of the tangent edges at a fillet — either directly in the drawing environment or in the model? Even a simple “Show Fillet Center/Intersection” option would save a lot of time when preparing technical drawings or creating construction geometry. Thank you for considering this request, and please let me know if there’s a recommended workflow or feature I might have missed for this purpose. Show More
