run2kdjhm Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 i'm using inventor 2009 I cant extrude a shape made by straight lines. if i click the line tool and make a basic triangle i cant extrude it into a solid. if i make a centerpoint circle i can extrude. also if i make a 2 point rectangle i can extrude that also. but it seems like inventor is not seeing the snap when i connect my lines. i wonder if some setting are messed up? any help would be appreciated thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shift1313 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 when you draw your triangle try giving the lines coincident constraints and see if it will let you extrude. if so you know you have a snap problem and its prob. in the settings somewhere. The only reason it would work on the circle and rectangle and not your triangle(that i can think of) is if your end points arent connected.

shift1313 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 i dont have inventor 2009 so im not sure how to tell you to get to your settings. i know 08-09 the user interface for the autodesk products changed, but there should be some sort of tools/options or user preferences. hopefully someone else with experience with 08-09 can give you a better answer.

Strix Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'd suggest a new thread for the new problem or use the search function to find a quick answer :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
