I am trying to make steel panels but when I do the sketch and try to extrude it I cant. I make sure all lines are joined. The panels are joined V shaped. I cant seem to snap to the grid either. Please keep in mind I am self taught at this Inventor so It could be a stupid question. Is there not a poly line feature I can use? How can a turn a shape into a polygon?
Thank you for your time people and Happy Holidays to you |

My guess is that you are using Inventor 2010 and have accidently turned off Constraint Persistence or Constraint Options.
You might read this document http://home.pct.edu/~jmather/skillsusa%20university.pdf
There is no polyline in Inventor as it is not needed. If you really want a regular equal sideded polygon use the Polygon tool.
Zip and attach your file here so that someone can determine why it will not extrude. Edited by JDMather - 02.Jan.2011 at 16:06 |
