You can create a style library using one of several methods. In general, new style libraries are created by CAD administrators so that uniform styles are assured throughout a design project.
Individual design projects created in Inventor can use a custom style library, which is specified in the project file. Because it is specified in the project, all designers who use the project use the same set of styles for formatting.
Tip: It is a good idea to keep the original style libraries associated with drafting standards intact. Instead, make a copy of the master library and use it to customize style libraries for individual design projects.
- Click Start menu
Programs Autodesk Inventor Tools Style Library Manager.
- Click the Create New Style Library command above the Style Library 2 pane.
- In the Creation Method box, click the arrow to select Copy Existing Style Library or Create Empty Style Library.
- In the New Style Library Location box, accept the default location or browse to the folder where you want to store the new library. If the library is accessed by a project, place it in a folder recognized by project locations.
- If copying a style library, in the Source Style Library to Copy box, accept the default library or browse to the library you want to copy. This option is unavailable if you create an empty library.
- Click OK to create the library and close the dialog box.
Exit the Style Library Manager. Use the Style and Standard Editor to customize the styles in the new style library.
