This help request is explained in detail in parts 2, 3 & 4. I can't figure this out and have tried looking at multiple google searches and community posts which all seem to be out of date. You could also process this solid further by taking it into Inventor Fusion.I'm working on a project for a piece of coursework with which I really need a hand. However this new base feature behaves as a solid allowing you to add in place features, such as holes. The end result is still faceted, like a mesh would be.
The final result! A solid feature, ready for you to start working with.Īs you can see from the illustration, the mesh converting tool doesn’t do magic.

The download contains a zipped file with. The Autodesk Inventor mesh enabler preview plugin is available to trial until January 31st 2013 from the Autodesk Labs web site. Whop-de-do! but what next? Well – next up is the ability to convert those meshes into water tight solids. Autodesk Labs – Autodesk Inventor mesh enablerĪutodesk Inventor 2012 onwards can already import many mesh formats. If you regularly need to use Catia, JT or STL files inside of Autodesk Inventor, then check out this new tool that might just help you out.
