iLogic User Interface

The iLogic user interface is updated with a modernized theme.

iProperties Command Enabled during Part In-Place Editing

The iProperties command is now available for in-place editing a part the same way it is for in-place editing an assembly.

Application Options/Save tab Enhancements

For clarity, the Save files in library folders checkbox is renamed to Include Library Files. In general, the Save tab allows you to control the type of edits you want to be prompted to save and the setting, Include Library Files, allows you to control whether to include library files from the prompting.

For more information, see Save Tab Reference (Application Options) .

Close Tabs/Files Enhancement

Use the new Close Tabs and Close All context menu options to quickly close all open documents. Access the new options from an open tab's context menu.

  • Close All Closes all visible tabs and any files opened from and hidden through the API.

Product Feedback Add In

Designed to not interrupt your workflows, the new Product Feedback Add In functionality makes it easy for you to share your feedback in-product and let us know how you are feeling about Inventor. We use this data to uncover hidden problem areas and opportunities for improvement. The Product Feedback Add In helps us gauge your satisfaction with the overall product, command designs, and performance as you use them for everyday modeling.
