It's such a polar opposite way of making a video to what I've been used to for several years now! I've been strictly following a written script for so long now and then editing out or starting again if I hit a snag, but with these videos hitting a snag is par for the friggin' course!
ah, a new Inventor video! Neil, you magnificent fellow. I was all excited to see Inventor finally has a mark command. Even more excited to find this little video!
Thanks! Working with Inventor since 2004 and I learned something by watching your video. I hadn't realised that fonts had to have a certain style when choosing the 'Mark trough' feature.
There use to be great YT channel with Inventor tutorials called TFF or something... shame it's gone... you could clearly use some of it's knowledge... 😁
There's a stong chance, can't confirm, that I was completely separately just addicted to this song over the last 2 days and then named the intro after the song!
Hello... Is there a way to ANIMATE the cutting of an object? Specifically, I'd like to animate the threading of a metal cylinder. In Maya, and I believe Max, you can animate boolean ops, but there doesn't *seem* to be a way to do it in Inventor... or am I wrong? Thanks.
Is there a way to do a single-line laser cut in a flat pattern? On thin metal or parts that would be difficult to bend on a press brake, we sometimes do a single-line laser cut with a couple bits left attached and then bend the part by hand. To accomplish this in our models, we have been doing really thin slots on the bend lines in the flat pattern, but our laser programmers are having to manually edit what they import from inventor to turn them into a single-line cut, if they don't the laser goes down both sides of the slot and makes a complete mess of things. I would love something that I could implement on the model design side that would fully automate it on the laser guys' side. Thanks.
Well frame gen and content center are pretty much one and the same in terms of data, and don't really have templates, they're table driven files which I suppose you could call the table a template. Unless you mean styles? I couldn't do all that in 1 video it would be too long, but if you can let me know what areas within that you would want to see talked about and I'll see if it can be worked into something.
@@Neil3D on my custom template i have common used parameter ,specific material, custom properties, on sheet metal templates i have custom sheet metal styles, ilogic rules, part name formula etc. etc. and when i use frame generator or content center all my pre settings are gone. that's why i was looking for ta tutorial on templates..
Being able to mark using stick fonts (and presumably single line segments) is really useful for manufacturing
Yes, finally. New tutorials 😉
I very much enjoyed the "stream of consciousness" sections of this video - nice job Neil 😁

@@Neil3D Loving the "oh Autodesk, why?" aspect of these videos - keep up the good work 🙂

I am having a right chuckle! Great content as usual. Brilliant intro. Thanks Neil!

I thought I already knew what you wanted to show... Turns out I was completelly wrong. Thank you Neil
Love this feature, we use it at work all the time to locate welded items. Huge upgrade to 'copy sketch to flat pattern' method
Oh yeeaaaaaaaaaaaaah welcome back to us 💪🏻👍🏻
Right-click on the unfold feature and click "refold feature". Nicer and less hastle :)
amazing mate!
Love this and welcome back 🙌🏻
As always, thanks Neil!!!
Thanks

love the intro ha
Loved the song and found a way to weave it into being a thing!
Love the new intro!

I want to know how to make my Inventor interface as dark as yours ...
I am using the extrusion feature for that and my sheet metal supplier converts it into a laser engraving.

😱 tutorials are back?...❤
Keep up!! 🤣 I don't have your gang giving me ideas any more which was where most of the first batch of tuts came from, so now I'm just freestyling 😬
@@Neil3D 🤣 well I can soon send them your direction with all their bizarre enquiries. Good video!
Can we have a general tutorial on templates, from sheet metal, frame generator and content center
Well frame gen and content center are pretty much one and the same in terms of data, and don't really have templates, they're table driven files which I suppose you could call the table a template. Unless you mean styles?

Point too small sounds like an idea station... More and more users have 4k screens nowaydays
