Sketch constraint - Relax Mode
• Relax Mode - F11• Relax dragging• Relax settings• Disable Relax Mode• Constraint Filters• Preserve dimensions with equation
Tips:Relax constraint on rectangle to create non parallel face
AGSAGS
Sketch Constraints
• Enhanced Inference• Display on creation• Show when selected• Delete Selected• Horizontal & Vertical 2D
constraint shows which way is which on placement
• Constraint Settings Application Options
AGSAGS
Sketch Enhancements
• Create point at virtual intersection of twosketch elements
Enhanced Offset algorithm• Topology modification• Trim operations, fillet, chamfer removal
(Not All intersections today)

Assembly
AGSAGS
Workplane
• Work plane creationbetween two parallel faces in assemblies
• Work plane creation fromnon-parallel faces in parts & assemblies
AGSAGS
Assembly - Joints• Joint Alignment Enhancements• Offset Origin Between two faces• Support for work geometry alignments
AGSAGS
Assembly – Frame Generator
• Frame Generator – Member Reuse• Window selection & Browser roll-up• Supports end treatments• Re-orientation controls Reverse Direction• Break Re-use• Conflict Handling• Supports demotion (via Source)
AGSAGS
Simplification
• Easier to discover, more than a BIM workflow
AGSAGS
Large Assembly
• Express Mode• Drawing Views
• Task Scheduler (Batch convert all drawing views to precise views)
• Fast Open
AGSAGS
Express Mode• Create Component (in place) • Use the section view command • Create / Edit Work Features • Create / Edit Sketches • Pattern Component • Copy Component• Mirror Components • Assemble • Point Cloud commands
AGSAGS
Drawing Workflows in 2015Workflow Why would I use it? What can I do? What is Inventor doing?
Fast Open Viewing, simple create/edit that doesn’t require the model
Create dimensions and text Avoids loading any model information
Raster Views Best performance for large assembly drawings
Create views, create annotations*
Loads only Express data until precise model is required
Precise Views Create best quality hidden line drawing views
No restrictions Loads precise geometry definition for creating hidden line representation
Defer Update Avoid updating the drawing to reflect changes to the model
Used in combination with either Raster or Precise views (see above)
Suppresses view and annotation updates
