Inventor 2021 now comes with a dark theme. Along with the dark theme, the Inventor API samples were updated with a new code sample for switching themes.

One of the most dreaded tasks I had, when working in a drawing office was my weekly time sheet. I hated it, and the thing I found most difficult was remembering what I had worked on, and when.

I was looking through some of my old iLogic code recently, and I ran across a utility that I wrote, which places a work point at the centre of gravity (COG), of an assembly model. I believe that the code was broadly based on an API sample for creating a work point based on 3... Continue Reading →

In this example I'm going to show you how to create a linear dimension. In the image below I have named some faces... Continue Reading →

If you follow these instructions EXACTLY, your instillation should run smoothly (as long as your PC is healthy!) If... Continue Reading →
Guest Post by Jelte de Jong Maybe you know the situation, you have 2 versions of a part. You changed something but can’t find what it was. In those situations I spend a lot of time looking for the difference. Just to find the hole that was moved 1mm. Should I have this problem more often,... Continue Reading →
With the release of Inventor 2020, the Extrude command was moved to the new "Panel Interface", which I love, BUT I got stuck the other day looking for the "Between" option in the extrude command. At the time, I was doing some BETA testing for Inventor 2021, I momentarily thought that this option had been... Continue Reading →
