How do I make axis(es), plane(s) active?

[hahoka1777]

Hi Inventor passionists,

 

I would like to use constrains on axis(es), plane(s). For example using coincident button for a line to X axis (to sit the line on that axis). (Or dimension 0mm alternatively.)

But,...

the constrain does not recognize axis(es) and plane(s), even I make it/them visible.

 

Or is any other function button exist to sit a line or origo of a circle on an axis?

 

And how do I set same height? For example two lines or origo of a circle and a line etc.?

 

Thanks.

I have moved this to the Inventor forums for you.

How do I mirror to an axis?

This should be trivial - I must be missing something specific to your geometry - attach your file here.

 

Ohh I see - you started a new thead rather than the logical progression of continuing a single discussion.

Project Geometry - they don't exist in your sketch until you Project Geometry (never ever use zero (0) dimensions - poor practice).

Threads merged. Why are you posting your Inventor questions all over the forum?

 

As stated by JD Mather, why are you starting new threads, instead of keeping your related questions in a single thread?

I am new in the forum. Could you please send me an instruction where, how to post my questions, and where, how do I upload my inventor screenshot for a better demonstrating of the issue.

 

Do you have free downloadable samples to follow the structure of the design?

 

Or any 2D sketch library?

 

Thanks

Without the actual file - it would be nearly impossible to figure out where you are going wrong (or more importantly - show you how to fix the problem).
