View Label in a Tennis Racquet Symbol

There should be a way to have view labels in a Tennis Racquet type symbol?

A horizontal line with a circle at the right-hand side.

I need the the word "VIEW", "DETAIL" or "SECTION" above a horizontal line on the left hand side.

Below that line I need the scale.

Within the circle, above the line, I need the View or Section label (eg. "K").

In the bottom half of the circle I need a reference to the drawing where that view is referencing from.

In the example above View K is taken from a View on drawing "011".

The drawing we are looking at here is "012".

Hi Guys.

It would be a great feature if we could add customised blocks to the view labels, allowing us to create our own view labels.

We do lots of work for different companies, these companies "clients" give us their title blocks and drawing standards. So therefore anything we create for them, has to conform to there standard.

To be able to do this, we save all our Inventor drawings in dwg format, open the files in AutoCAD, place view labels, then open the files up again in Inventor. This is not a very good work-a-round and is time consuming.

Please try to add this functionality "customised view labels and identifiers" Please see picture attached.

You might try using a Sketched Symbol to do this. It is very simple to create a sketched symbol that has prompted text in it. Simply create your sketched symbol, add a text box to it, then go in and edit the text box. In the editer change the type of your text to "Prompted Entry". Whenever the symbol is placed a prompted entery dialoge will pop up and you may edit the text in the symbol. We currently do this with our flag notes and it works very well.

Hope this helps.

Thanks laptop..

Have tried this, but its way to cumbersome. Each label must have un up/down/left/right arrow. Symbols need to be created for elevations, sections, details. So that's 12 symbols already. Then I need to create symbols for identifiers for where the views are taken from, which also must conform to the up/down/left right.

The permiatations run into the hundreds. Which we can do, will take a little time.

But the problem is.... The view identifiers don't update with view numbering, text in the symbols that overlap symbol geometry (wont allow me to mask the geometry). Basically if I move views, create or delete views, I have to redo all the identifiers again manually. If geometry overlaps, I have to create a new symbol.

Also i cannot find the information anywhere to include "view" information in a symbol. Or a routine for a symbol to automatically take the next "view identifier number" in the list. Placing it manually can cause errors, especially when I have designs that are detailed over 20 sheets.

Believe me, its quicker and easier to apply the symblos in AutoCAD, and bring the drawing back to Inventor. But as I said before, human errors occur.

Would just be nice to be able to define a block, and say, use that item as an identifier. Which updates according view information.

I would like to change the default design of view labels to suit the inserted image. This would conform with the majority of industry drawings. Currently I turn of the visibility of the view label & insert a sketch symbol.

Thanks,

Sandy

Original Summary: Mejora en archivos .idw, Símbolos y identificadores de vistas

the label consists of a symbol, the view identifier, origin plane number, destination plane number and scale.In the industry in general there are standards in the presentation of drawings and each company has its own style.

The view identifiers in the autodesk inventor drawing templates (.idw) are limited to just showing the label and the scale of the view. In my work, the detail view labels are assigned this symbol as shown in the figure (the image belongs to an autocad file)

En la industria en general existen normas en la presentacion de los dibujos y cada empresa tiene su propio estilo.

Los idenificadores de vista en las plantillas de dibujo (.idw) autodesk inventor estan limitados a solo mostrar la etiqueta y la escala de la vista. En mi trabajo, a las etiquetas de vista de detalle  se les asigna este simbolo como se aprecia en la figura (la imagen pertenece aun archivo de autocad)

The label consists of a symbol, the view identifier, origin plane number, destination plane number and scale.

la etiqueta consta de un simbolo, el identificador de la vista, numero de plano de origen, numero de plano destino y la escala.

The same applies for section notes as shown in the following figure

lo mismo aplica para las notas de secciones como se muestra en la siguiente figura

In this same image you can see the detail and its corresponding symbol.

Another important point is that currently the circle of detail can not be measured in a measurable way so that the size of all the details can be homogenized and the presentation improved.

en esta misma imagen se aprecia el detalle y su simbolo correpondiente.

otro punto importante es que actulmente no se puede dimensionar de forma mesurable el circulo del detalle para que asi se puede homogenizar el tamaño de todos los detalles y mejorar la presentacion.

This is the symbol for the section.

thank you very much for your attention I hope your support and so the software will improve

este es el simbolo para la seccion.

muchas gracias por su atencion espero su apoyo y asi el software mejore

I would like to see more versatility/options in labeling a view, but 90% of my concern is simply having a different label for parts vs assemblies.  All my labels are setup for part info, then maybe delete "Material" if I have an Assy view.

Maybe it looks more like a Lollipop.

Inventor should have the "Lollipop Label"

The "Lollipop Label" is used everywhere in my part of the world.

Companies here will not accept drawings without them.

Please add this!!!

I posted a request for something very similar years prior to your 2020 post.....

was told by autodesk, "it's on our radar". Which means they'll ignore it for at least 10, probably 15 years.

A more powerful sheet management feature would help too, for publishing sheets that have individual drawing numbers and linking tennis racquet label numbers.

although an archaic method in a world where we have elctronic drawing storage and multi-sheet .pdf's, the methods used in your post are still fairly prevalent.

Autodesk continue to throw away market share unitl they decide to implement this imo.
