One of my favorite new features in Inventor 2010 and 2011 is the command search capability from the main Inventor menu. Simply click the “I” and start typing. Inventor brings up matches based on the command name, ribbon pane name, or even options within a specific command. In addition it tells us where to find the command in the user interface, or you can simply pick it off the search results list.
To use the search, start by picking the Inventor menu:
Then start typing to get a list of possible matches:
You can see how the search even returns result based on the ribbon bar pane names. Excellent!

For many of us their always seems to come a time to where we do not want to show wire numbers but still need to report wire information. Wire layers now have a “no wire numbering” option in AutoCAD Electrical 2010. These wires behave normally for inserting, breaking, and scooting components, and show up in the Wire From/To report.
The Insert Wire Numbers command follows these rules:
- If all wires in the network are on layers set “No” for Wire Numbering, no new wire number is inserted.
- If any wire in the network is on a layer set “Yes” for Wire Numbering, the existing non-fixed wire number is updated or a new wire number is inserted.
- If a wire network already has a non-fixed wire number, it is updated regardless of the Wire Numbering setting. Use the Delete Wire Numbers command to remove the wire number.
Let’s Take a Look!!!
