okay, i'm really confused, i downloaded autoCAD 2012, and i guess i was promted if i wanted this inventor fusin too, i said sure,

whats the difference between this and normal inventor..?

ALSO, i have the inventor fusion plugin for cad, and i dont know how to access it in cad, or what its for, but apparently its 28.7GB big, while cad's only 1.4GB and inventor fusion (not plug in) is 400MB

TWENTY EIGHT GIGABYTES??

@enigmamonkey92 Inventor Fusion is its own stand-alone program. It allows you to work as a companion to Inventor via a Change Manager. The Change Manager will let you edit the faces directly using Inventor Fusion and create a history for those changes that Inventor expects. Yes it is a big download. It's its own full program plus the Change Manager.

I've worked with Solidworks, Inventor, Solid Edge, CATIA, and many other CAD programs and I will tell you that in terms of solid modeling they all get the job done equally the same. Some are easier and some are harder to grasp. Solidworks was probably the easiest to learn, SolidEdge is fastest to work with, Inventor is very interesting once you get used to it, CATIA probably being the most powerful but also the most confusing one. It really comes down to personal taste I'd say.

uhm, hi need help, how do you do that? from 1:25 to 1:32 where you are changing the size of the component, component does not intersect with the other cylindrical component, rather it adjusts to the profile of the cylindrical component, is that some sort of a constraint?

I have Inventor 2011 and this looks a bit like it but not, what version is this?
