Users are looking for a way to use the DataStandard menu in Inventor to copy not only a 3D model with a drawing, but also with a linked IPN. Currently, this is only possible via Vault and Copy Design.   Show More

I ran into an issue today and I have duplicated the issue in both 2021 and 2025. It seems as though if you are using the pick command from the command manager and try to use it in a looping situation to add a pick to a Select Set the pick reset the Select set until the end of the pick. From what I can tell it should iterate through the loop adding the entities to the Select Set and highlighting the appropriate entities. But it doesn't do that until the Pick command is escaped out of or ended.    Here is the code that I used I have tried a Do loop, While loop and a goto command, and all have the same outcome.      Community thread talking about this issue.    https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-programming-ilogic/select-sets-do-loops-and-winforms/m-p/12959267#M170730 Show More

Please add and option to display unit string for inches as ", and not "in" in the drawings. The suffix does not work, especially if using dual dimensions. Show More

It would be very helpful if there was a command that tabulates the rebuild time, number of faces, number of instances, and overall contribution to the total rebuild/update time of an assembly to identify problem parts or subassemblies. Not only would it help identify issues, it could also help quantify how large the problem is. Just generating a table would be helpful, but there are other things that could be done within the GUI to help as well.   I found Solidworks calls this Performance Evaluation, that can be used in various ways to help find and eliminate problematic features or components. It can also change the colour of components in the model view to provide visual feedback and help identify high load/rebuild time components (bright red = high rebuild/face count, dark blue = low rebuild/face count.). I believe it can also be used to read other meta data and sort and colour based upon that (such as a manually added cost).   For example, it is very helpful to find any nuts that when imported didn't have the threads removed, which results in 10000000 faces that need to be rebuilt one by one when you use that nut in thirty five different subassemblies.

Often the origin axes are used for patterns or assembly constraints. Then I have to search for them in the browser. Why these axes are not clickable in the graphics window?   Show More

Please add Override color to SketchPoint Object, similar to the SketchLine object.    Reasoning:  The selectset and highlight set are unreliable and sometimes we need to change the color to use the pick command and a windows form. And changing the color of the object is the only reliable way to go through the selection process.    Sketchline Override color: https://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2025/ENU/?guid=SketchLine_OverrideColor   Thank you Show More

Would be nice to have Acme threading into the hole feature menu. Show More

At the moment we have the full 2 options to filter by in the model browser... "Unresolved" and "outdated files". Why isn't there an option to filter on MUCH more properties (maybe from a separate dialogue window)?   Just a couple that come to mind are "visible", "hidden", "partnumber", "descriptions", "Content Center files", "library files", ... I know you can search for some of these, but these still deliver WAY to many results in big assemblies.   Even more perfect would be the possibility to combine multiple filters, or create (and save) preset filter (combinations).

Hello everyone. People from the forum inspired me to this idea, and specifically this topic. Its essence is simple: you need to add the ability to copy iLogic rules and events when creating components through the Mirror Components functionality in Assevbly. I proposed a solution in the topic, but it would be better if it were a default Inventor functionality. Thank you! Show More

I think the replace reference tool is outdated and needs some improvements. Allow the user to choose whether the change applies to: The entire file (currently) The current sheet Selected sheets One view Selected views Show More

This is a major nuisance and time waster. Every time I turn components invisible in an assembly, and then turn them visible again, all work planes and sketches in said components automatically turn visible again also. Why?! I had those work planes and sketches already hidden prior, so Inventor is doing whatever it wants in this regard. FIX IT ASAP! Show More

Hello,   Maybe more people run in through this problem. But is is very annoying that when you place a Detail and then delete it, that it still continues the numbering of the details. For example; you place detail A, then delete it. Then when you place a detail, it will go up "+1" to B. Is there maybe a way to reset the detail counter? Or maybe have an array/list that you can see wich details have been used? The current version of changing the name of the detail, is pretty sensetive for errors. Show More

I need to be able to turn off all references at all levels in an assembly. I can have a lot of reference drawings in multiple assemblies and sub-assemblies in a main assemble and whenever I turn on and off visible of subassemblies, I have to go back and turn off the reference drawings manually. That is going through all subassemblies and turning them off one by one. This is very time-consuming and tedious.  And NO, turning off the 2d sketch in the view drop-down is not an option. I need to see the sketch that I am currently modeling. I have tried Ilogic code to turn them off but all I can find is at the top level and not all levels. That is not helpful, turning off at the top level is simple and is not the issue.               Show More

This is a request for improvement to the hole feature editing function in Inventor. Even if you select "_2) Fit hole" from the bolt hole type setting, the tolerance range of H7 is not displayed in idw. Unless you select " Tolerance display ", the tolerance range of H7 will not be displayed in idw. If " Tolerance display " is not selected, it will be displayed as a normal hole, which is inconsistent with the setting (_2) Fit hole). When "_2) Fit hole" is selected, I would like the tolerance range to be displayed in idw as the default setting. Please refer to the attached PDF.   【Japanese】 Inventorの穴フィーチャ編集の機能改善要望です。 ボルト穴タイプの設定から「_2)はめあい穴」を選択しても、idwにH7の公差範囲が表示されない。 「公差を表示」まで選択しないと、idwにH7の公差範囲が表示されない。 「公差を表示」を選択しない場合、普通穴として表示されるため、設定（_2)はめあい穴）と矛盾している。  「_2)はめあい穴」を選択した時点で、idwに公差範囲が表示されることをデフォルトにして頂きたい。 添付のPDFをご参考下さい。 Show More

It would be extremely helpful to have the option to remove original in a pattern, the same as you can do in a mirror.   I am very often patterning solids in a part just to change their location, which then means you have to create a sketch, extrude over the original solid and cut it manually.   Show More

I would like to be able to export the "parts list" table, present in the IDW file, in Excel, exactly as I see it in the IDW file, without title and without header, instead, the file that is exported, maintains the date setting and does not have the title line but reports the first line... What do I need to do to get what I wanted? Thanks   Vorrei avere la possibilità di esportare la tabella "elenco parti", presente nel file IDW, in excel, esattamente come la vedo dentro al file IDW, senza titolo e senza intestazione, invece, il file che viene esportato, mantiene impostazione data e non ha la riga del titolo ma riporta la prima riga... Cosa bisogna fare per ottenere quanto voluto? Grazie Show More

There are plenty of ways to improve Inventor Drawing leader styles. (Basically reference options from AutoCAD) - Add automatic landings - set number of segments - Restricting angle at which the leader segments come in - text attachment options (middle of top line, underline top, mid of text etc...) - spline type leaders     Show More
