### 1.Introduction

--------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Welcome Inventor users,

 

Below are a list of several resources to help with your use of Autodesk

Inventor. There is a lot of good information listed on these sites. Answers

to the more frequently asked questions can be found in these links.

 

If, after reviewing these sites, you still do not find the answer to your

questions please feel free to post in the newsgroup. There are a lot of

experienced users that will be more than happy to help you out if possible.

 

PLEASE DO A SEARCH OF THE GROUP FIRST(see below).

YOUR QUESTION HAS PROBABLY ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED.

 

Please be descriptive in your topic subjects. Subjects like "Inventor

Problems" or "HELP!" do not lend much insight and are often skipped over. A topic such as "How do I loft several non-parallel sketches" is much more helpful.

 

As some newsreader programs cannot display HTML formatted messages

correctly, please be sure to post your messages in plain text format. Most

newsreaders have an option to format the messages in this manner.

 

If you are having display or crashing related issues please list your

machine's specs: Processor, RAM, Operating System, Video Card, IV release &

SP #. While it may not be due to these factors it helps to determine the

cause.

 

When posting files please move the end of part marker to the top of the file

and zip the files to save space. The posting limit is approximately 1MB (see below for larger files)
