Guest Post by Paul Munford of the ‘CAD Setter Out’ BlogThe ‘End of Part Marker’, or ‘EOP’ sits at the end of Inventor’s feature browser to let us know that there are no more features.
Five EOP Productivity Tips.There are five ways to use the EOP:
Stepping through the tree
This is great if you are working your way through someone else’s part and you want to see how it was put together.
Any new feature that you create will automatically be placed just above the EOP. Just roll the EOP up to the point that you want to insert your new feature and go for it. New in Inventor 2013, you can now right click on any feature and chose ‘Move EOP [To Here]’ to slide the EOP up under your chosen feature. You can also right click on the EOP itself and choose ‘Move EOP to Top’ or ‘Move EOP to End’ to send the EOP to either end of the tree. Repair broken features
A good tactic is to roll the EOP up to underneath the first failed feature before you fix it. Now roll the EOP down one feature at a time. Nine times out of ten the rest of the failed features will now build successfully. Delete all the features below the EOP
Shrinking part file size
