100

A view generated from the base view or other selected view.

Projected View

100

A tool that removes material from a part's interior, creating a hollow cavity with walls within the part.

Shell

100

An assembly that contains other parts nested within.

Subassembly

100

A command which removes excess lines from a drawing.

Trim

200

A tool found in the Inspect tab that measures properties such as the perimeter and area of a region found in the sketch environment.

Region Properties

200

A profile containing 2D geometry that is used for creating a body.

Sketch

200

The act that allows for features to be hidden as well as any dependent features or sketches.

Suppress

200

A tool that allows one to navigate through preset views in a drawing.

ViewCube

300

A 3D feature that takes a flat object and multiplies it around an axis.

Revolve

300

A tool that slices a 3D model to reveal sketch planes that may be placed in an interior of a 3D model. Helps with visualization and proper viewing of details while creating sketches for part modeling.

Slice Graphics

300

A tool that takes a selected 2D profile and sweeps it along a selected path.

Sweep

300

Settings within Inventor part files and drawing files that change the appearance of a model or drawing view.

Visual Style

400

A ratio comparing an actual object's size to the size represented on the engineering drawing.

Scale

400

A tool used to create new bodies defined by a selected face, profile, or plane.

Split

400

A representation of ridges on a bolt or screw, or in a hole.

Thread

400

A selection method performed by selecting and dragging from left to right. Any items that are completely inside the window will be selected.

Window Selection

500

A view that shows the internal detail of a model.

Section View

500

A flat-faced, cylindrical but very shallow hole that is larger in diameter than the hole it is concentrically cut into.

Spot Face

500

A block of text, somewhat automated, added to a presentation to provide information on a file.

Title Block

500

Axes that can be used to aid in the creation of 3D part models and give more flexibility than using only the origin axes. Examples are Axis Through a Revolved Face or Feature and Normal to Plane Through Point.
