Open a New Part File

Next, import the DWG data into an Autodesk Inventor part file. You need a part file open in 2D Sketch mode. Open a new Part document:

  1. Click the New icon , located at the top of the application window. Ensure that you click the icon itself, not the drop-down menu next to the icon.
  2. In the Create New File dialog box, click the English folder, and then double-click the Standard (in).ipt template.

The part opens in Sketch mode, where the 2D Sketch commands are available and the sketch grid displays, if turned on.
