Software Graphics settings in Inventor Application Options

Anonymous
Not applicable

In Inventor\Application Options\Hardware there is a check box for Software graphics that enables user to toggle on or of this. I have tried to pinpoint the exact location for where this setting is stored in Registry using Procmon and filter that monitor Path HKCU\Software\Autodesk\Inventor\RegistryVersion23.0\System\Preferences. Have not been able to find the value. I also belive that settings related to graphics settings are in addition to registry setting also stored to a file. Does anyone here know more about this and the exact registry key for this setting?

Hi @Anonymous,

Application Options are no longer stored (since Inventor 2018) in the registry, they are saved to an XML file in the following location.

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Inventor 2019\UserApplicationOptions.xml

Substitute <username> with your logon name.

Cheers

Jon.

Hi Trond,

Or alternatively you can just get or set this value using:

 

ThisApplication.HardwareOptions.UseSoftwareGraphics = True / False

 

Thanks,

Luke
