(assistance) add frames to the inventor library 2016

[Andrea_Ferrari]

Bye to all,

in this discussion I wanted to ask you a help on how, in inventor 2016, you could add other profiles to the inventor's library for the " insert frame" function.

I look forward to your answers and thank you in advance

If you have problems I will try to help you

Okay, thank you, I'm gonna try and let you know.

hi, I looked at the process of the video and I understood how to do, but having the need to insert in the library profiles for aluminum clamps it is difficult to draw them in sketch mode. so I tried to import the profile dxf file (given by the manufacturer), but when I go to extrude it is no longer a unique line but many lines.

Can you help me?

Is that such a complex profile?

I think you should draw it again.

The profile would be this

Look, I'm producing aluminum locks, the problem is not that there are so many lines, but there are open lines.
try to solve this copy, from autocad, and paste into the inventor sketch,
conclude the sketch and try an extrusion if you appear + in red, it means that there are problems with the solver looking for problems (mainly they are open lines or non-coicide points) and solve them; it is boring but to redesign it everything you put more '.

It is true that it takes time to redesign it, but the copy/paste is a little 'dangerous'.
leaves a sketch untied, just a little disrespect of anyone and pain.
in my opinion it is always advisable to work so as to have certainties in the future, otherwise the first time that happens the problem other than the time that you would have spent on redesigning it....

You're completely right, but sometimes for a matter of time I've created a block and bound the block in the sketch.

But I repeat your observation at the technical level is very fair, only that you do not always have the chance to do all the donuts with the hole.

I did! thank you all, you can close.
