– Project .ipj• ASCII-based text files, contain search paths to locations of all
files in project– iFeature .ide
• Contains complete parts, 3D features, or 2D sketches, that inserted into a part file
– Design Views (.idv) • Private Design Views are configuration files in which saves
component visibility, component selection status, color settings, zoom magnification, and viewing angle of an assembly.

Projects in Autodesk Inventor• Projects Overview
– Most designs involve more than a single file: parts, subassembly, top level assembly, presentation, and drawings
– Projects are files that contain search paths to find files that are required for a project
– Autodesk Inventor always has a project named Default. The default project’s path is located relative to the folder that the referencing file located
