When creating a drawing view, which view type is most commonly created first?

SECTION VIEW

INITIAL VIEW

PROJECTED VIEW

BASE VIEW

How can you begin editing a part within the context of an assembly?

YOU CANNOT EDIT PARTS FROM WITHIN AN ASSEMBLY. YOU MUST OPEN THE PART IN ITS OWN WINDOW FOR EDITING.

DOUBLE-CLICK THE PART IN THE BROWSER OR GRAPHICS WINDOW.

RIGHT-CLICK THE PART IN THE BROWSER OR GRAPHICS WINDOW AND SELECT OPEN.

CLICK MODIFY > EDIT PART, AND THEN SELECT THE PART IN THE BROWSER OR GRAPHICS WINDOW.

SHAPE OPTIMIZER

TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZER

GENERATIVE DESIGN

SHAPE GENERATOR

Suppose you find yourself creating the same or similar parts with only slight variations to a few dimensions. What feature could help speed up the process of creating these parts?

TEMPLATE PARTS

IPARTS

CONFIGURED PARTS

COMPUTED PARTS

Sketch geometry that is NOT included in 3D features is _____?

OFFSET SKETCH

TRACE GEOMETRY

TRACE SKETCH

CONSTRUCTION GEOMETRY

What makes Inventor a history-based modeling system?

AS A PART IS CREATED, INVENTOR LOCKS THE FEATURES IN A HISTORY BROWSER FOR REFERENCE AND TO PREVENT EDITING IN THE FUTURE.

INVENTOR IS ABLE TO TO CREATE PARTS, ASSEMBLIES, AND DRAWINGS THAT ARE ALL LINKED.

EACH FEATURE IS CAPTURED SEQUENTIALLY AS IT IS CREATED. CHANGES TO FEATURES CREATED EARLIER IN TIME PROPAGATE THROUGH THE DESIGN.

IT CONTAINS A HISTORICAL VERSIONING SYSTEM TO ENSURE DESIGNS AND CHANGES ARE TRACKED PROPERLY THROUGHOUT A PROJECT.

How can you easily locate a part in the browser if you see it in the graphics window?

MIDDLE-MOUSE CLICK THE PART OR ASSEMBLY IN THE GRAPHICS WINDOW.

RIGHT-CLICK THE PART IN THE GRAPHICS WINDOW AND SELECT FIND IN BROWSER.

DOUBLE-CLICK THE PART IN THE GRAPHICS WINDOW.

SELECT THE PART IN THE GRAPHICS WINDOW AND PRESS THE SPACEBAR.

What is the difference between top-down design and bottom-up design?

TOP-DOWN REQUIRES GLOBAL PARAMETERS WHILE BOTTOM-UP MAINTAINS LOCAL PART PARAMETERS.

IN TOP-DOWN, PARTS ARE BUILT IN CONTEXT OF THE ASSEMBLY. IN BOTTOM-UP THEY ARE CREATED INDIVIDUALLY FIRST, THEN ASSEMBLED.

IN EITHER CASE, EACH TYPE OF DESIGN MUST BE STARTED FROM A SPECIFIC TEMPLATE FILE.

IN TOP-DOWN, PARTS ARE BUILT FROM THE TOP OF THE DESIGN TO THE GROUND. BOTTOM-UP STARTS FROM THE GROUND AND BUILDS UP.

How can you change the thickness of an existing sheet metal part?

UPDATE THE SKETCH OF THE COMPONENT.

CREATE OFFSET FEATURES.

UPDATE THE SHEET METAL DEFAULT APPLIED TO THE PART.

USE THE EXPAND TOOL ON THE FACES.

What is the purpose of a sketch constraint?

TO CONTROL WHERE DIMENSIONS CAN BE APPLIED TO A SKETCH

TO DEFINE THE VARIABLES IN A SKETCH

TO CONTROL HOW A SKETCH CAN BE USED IN AN ASSEMBLY

TO DEFINE HOW SKETCH GEOMETRY RELATES TO OTHER GEOMETRY IN THE SKETCH

When building an assembly, it is often helpful to prevent certain parts from moving. What action removes the ability for a component to move in one step?

SETTING THE PART TO NON-FLEXIBLE

GROUNDING THE PART

LOCKING THE PART

DISABLING THE PART

Which is NOT a default simulation type in Inventor?

STRUCTURAL BUCKLING

STATIC ANALYSIS

MODAL ANALYSIS

SHAPE GENERATOR

If the browser gets closed by mistake, how can you turn it back on?

HOVER THE CURSOR NEAR THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN UNTIL YOU SEE THE GREEN HIGHLIGHT, THEN RIGHT-CLICK AND SELECT ENABLE BROWSER.

FROM THE VIEW TAB, CLICK USER INTERFACE AND SELECT BROWSER.

RIGHT-CLICK IN THE GRAPHICS WINDOW AND SELECT BROWSER FROM THE UI DISPLAY MENU.

CLOSE AND RESTART INVENTOR. THE BROWSER WILL RETURN TO ITS PREVIOUS LOCATION.

In a presentation file, what command do you use to reposition parts in the scene?

POSITION COMPONENTS

TWEAK COMPONENTS

MOVE COMPONENTS

NUDGE COMPONENTS

What is the purpose of assembly constraints?

TO DEFINE THE MAXIMUM BOUNDS, OR ENVELOPE, OF AN ASSEMBLY

TO POSITION OR RESTRICT MOTION OF ITEMS IN AN ASSEMBLY

TO DEFINE LIMITS AS TO HOW LARGE AN ASSEMBLY CAN BECOME

TO LIMIT HOW AN ASSEMBLY CAN BE SHARED WITH COLLABORATORS

How can you share a 3D design with someone who doesn't have Inventor?

CLICK FILE > SHARE AND THEN SELECT DWF OR 3D PDF.

SELECT THE ITEMS YOU WANT TO SHARE, AND THEN ON THE ASSEMBLE TAB, SELECT SHRINKWRAP FROM THE SIMPLIFICATION PANEL.

CLICK FILE > EXPORT AND THEN SELECT DWF OR 3D PDF.

SELECT THE ITEMS YOU WANT TO SHARE, AND THEN ON THE TOOLS TAB, SELECT PACKAGE COMPONENTS FROM THE EXPORT PANEL.

How are parts and assemblies different?

PARTS ARE COMPRISED OF FEATURES THAT REPLICATE A SINGLE COMPONENT. ASSEMBLIES ARE COLLECTIONS OF COMPONENTS.

PARTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE MATERIALS APPLIED, WHILE ASSEMBLIES CAN CONTROL ANY NUMBER OF MATERIALS.

PARTS ARE FOR BUILDING SMALL ITEMS, AND ASSEMBLIES ARE FOR LARGER PROJECTS.

PARTS ARE FOR DESIGNING INDIVIDUAL ITEMS, AND ASSEMBLIES ARE FOR SIMULATION.

When an assembly is placed inside another assembly, what does it become?

A SUBASSEMBLY

A CONSUMED ASSEMBLY

A MINI ASSEMBLY

A NESTED ASSEMBLY

What is the purpose of the origin geometry?

TO LINK MULTIPLE PARTS TOGETHER IN AN ASSEMBLY

TO PROVIDE A FIXED REFERENCE FOR ANY PART OR ASSEMBLY IN 3D SPACE

TO CONTROL ALL JOINTS IN AN ASSEMBLY

TO CONTROL POSITIONING FOR MODELING FEATURES
