2008-02-01, 03:13 AM
Summary: Be able to create a shrink wrapped part from an assembly. This would create a smaller more manageable part, that represents the original assembly

Description: I would like the ability to have shrinkwrap representations of assemblies, and the ability to feature simplify upon export. I want only the outside geometry of the part / assembly, in a simplified state.

How Used: Machine assemblies saved out of Inventor need to be brought into another environment, usually AutoCAD Architecture or Revit for facilities layout. Inventor models are too large currently on export to be used in layouts efficiently.

Feature Affinity: Interoperability (STEP/IGES)
