- In this final lesson of product design…with Autodesk Inventor, we'll take a look…at how to create drawing files,…the documentation process primarily used…by designers and manufacturers…to communicate detailed information…such as parts' height, width, depth, and location,…size of key features such as holes.…In essence, we would show any information needed…to make the part in this type of technical working drawing.…I'll go ahead and go to Autodesk Inventor,…and I should say although creating technical drawings…takes a bit of knowledge regarding the rules and regulations…that designers typically follow such as the ASME standards,…we'll put that aside for now and just take a look at…how the drawings are created in Inventor.…
So we're going to begin a new IDW file,…so we've used almost all of these icons…except for this one so far, so this is our new drawing,…so we'll select that.…And it will put us in to the drawing environment,…and you can see here by default,…Inventor has put us into sheet,…and although you may not know about…
