101 Autodesk Inventor productivity tips


Pablo Ferral

Recommended Posts

I don't just work with Inventor - CAD is also my hobby.

 

I recently had a bit of time free, so I looked through the archives of some of my favourite Inventor bloggers. I learned a lot!

 

I out together over a 100 of my favourite tips here:

I hope that you get as much out of them as I did!

Thanks Pablo - I've been trying to figure out how to use a curve for a pattern for YEARS.

 

Ha. you should have asked.

Well yeah, but that would have been the easy way to do it. When have I ever picked the easy way?

 

(Also, I just never thought to ask. It hasn't been a really pressing issue, just one that would have made things easier a few times.)

Last time I looked at those was probably 2009 or so, when I was first learning Inventor. It probably is in there, and shame on me for not having thoroughly dog-eared and marked up copies of them at my desk.

Well as I said - I didn't take the time to go through Paul's list, so if I miss something - shame on me.

But if you happen to see something you think I should definately take a look at please post the precise url.

I don't have time right now to go through an extensive list.

JD - Probably not, I deliberately picked 'tips & tricks' rather than in depth tutorials or master classes. You probably know most of this stuff already...

 

You might find some of Curtis Waguspack's iLogic tips interesting...

Bookmarked your list.

I haven't gotten into iLogic very much.

I spend about a week on it (2 - 2.5 hr classes) and am always looking for examples.

My class came up with some good examples of their own after the lectures. But I didn't have time to investigate their solutions other than to veryify that they worked (or didn't). Hope I can remember to review this when that lecture week rolls around again.
