In The Machine is the official blog of the Inventor Product Management Team. It is a way for Autodesk to share Inventor news, interesting information about successful Inventor customers and partners as well as tips and tricks.

From time to time we’ll also use the blog to solicit feedback from users via surveys. This blog is hosted by Garin Gardiner, Autodesk Technical Marketing Manager.

CAP IT!!

Have you ever created a Parts List only to realize a great deal of the text is lower case? If this has happened to you, you know just how painful it is to go through and capitalize everything. There is a much easier way to do this in the the last few releases of Inventor. To do it, open up the assembly and open up the assembly BOM. From there you can select everything you want to capitalize and right click to capitalize. Now go back to the drawing and you will see it is all capitalized.Hope that saves you some time the next time somebody forgets to select the caps lock button before they type.

As many of you are probably aware, AU 2010 is upon us and many of us have been feverishly preparing classes and are looking forward to a great AU 2010. Monday has drawn to a close and many attendees have arrived, registered and will kick off AU 2010 with a bang first thing tomorrow morning. Yesterday (Monday 11/29/2010) was full of press events and preparing for AU to get in full swing. We are already seeing great news hitting the airways from the press events. DeelipManezes captured a few videos from the event including an new mobile game that will be released soon for the iPad, iPhone and iTouch. That's right, Autodesk is developing a new game for young Inventors. This app targets high school and college students as a fun way to learn more about physics and mechanical design. Check it out! Stay tuned for more excitement to come this week!
