iLogic and the Inventor Project File
iLogic and the Inventor Project File

Issue:
You want to reference the current Inventor Project file within an iLogic rule.
Solution:
Here is a quick iLogic snippet that will demonstrate how to work with the Project file and path. In this example the project name, project file name, project path, and the full project path and file name are written to a message box.

------ start of iLogic ----------------------------------------------------------
Dim IPJ as String
Dim IPJ_Name as String
Dim IPJ_Path as String
Dim FNamePos As Long
set a reference to the FileLocations object.
IPJ = ThisApplication.FileLocations.FileLocationsFile
get the location of the last backslash seperator
FNamePos = InStrRev(IPJ, "", -1)
get the project file name with the file extension
IPJ_Name = Right(IPJ, Len(IPJ) - FNamePos)
get the project name (without extension)
IPJ_ShortName = Left(IPJ_Name, Len(IPJ_Name) - 4)
get the path of the folder containing the project file

Infinite Skills – Autodesk Inventor 2014 Tutorial Series
Infinite Skills – Autodesk Inventor 2014 Tutorial Series
Are you looking for a video tutorial series for Autodesk Inventor?
Infinite Skills has recently released its Learning Autodesk Inventor 2014 series featuring instructor Adam Cooper. I was provided the DVD and asked to review this tutorial series, and was very pleased with the content found within.
When I popped in the DVD, the autoplay opened the viewing application and presented me with the Chapter menu as shown here:

A status legend on the right shows which videos Ive watched with a shaded dot, as well as a partially shaded dot for those videos that I only watched part of. As you can image this can be a great help when jumping around within the chapters.Once a topic is selected the video plays in the application. The authors pace is quite good, but since it is a video you can always use the buttons found in the video control tool bar to pause and rewind as needed.

Hybrid Wireframe and Shaded Views in Autodesk Inventor
Hybrid Wireframe and Shaded Views in Autodesk Inventor
Issue:
You want to create a view on your drawing that has some parts shaded and some that look wire-framed, so you can show some particular detail of your assembly in your detailed drawing.
In the past you could do it as described in tip #1 at this link, but that seems not to work now.

Solution:
Here is another way to do this.
Create one new Positional Representation ( no need to do anything else with it, other than creating it).
Heres a link to a quick video I created, but I think the CADLine blog has covered this better at this link:
