The toggle was available but I have never liked that because it will get stuck on or off. I prefer the checkbox in options. Thanks Neil. I never pay attention to when updates are available so I'm glad I'm subscribed to you :)
Hi. I don’t know when they made it possible to project construction lines. But I have been using the "construction toggle switch", to project construction lines with inventor 2017. cheers :) I don't know if it works in inventor 2016 or any older inventor versions.
Toftee, same here, using '17 still and have been projecting geometry as construction for a while. This may have been in '16 as well but don't remember.
Great video, as always. Any chance I could get you to check out "Woodwork 4 Inventor" and maybe do some videos about that, in the same vein as your vanilla Inventor tutorial videos? Its a really solid add-on for Inventor and I think a lot of other people here would like to see it.
Yea I discovered that immediately after re-uploading this, thought f**k it I'm not re-doing this for a third time so I'll just leave it as is! There'll be people with older Inventors who didn't know you could do this, might try it, bonus, happy days.
I'm pretty certain it was there before I was a Product Designer on the Inventor project, so that was the 2007 release. Then we were called User Experience Designers to coincide with the Ribbon release. 2010?
I even had the document on screen in the video saying "YES U CAN DO DIS" and there was me saying "NO U NO CANT DO DIS". Sometimes I wonder I how even manage to turn a computer on.

Can confirm, its working in 2017 as well, not just 2018.1
Ya "construction toggle switch" is available for my version of 2016 as well.

I remember using toggle construction for projecting lines as a construction lines since i used 2013.
Hi Neil,
Before the AppOp Sketch setting, users could do this with the Construction toggle whilst in Sketchmode for quite some time.
Thanks,

Why they don’t hide them altogether? And let us use edges/vertecies as references.
I thought I saw it for a split sec.
But after a refresh of my browser ,poeff gone. :-)

TFI You know I wonder the same thing sometimes, Burned myself on my microwave the other day. It's a miracle that I can get anything done
Pretty lame.
