Improved cross-highlighting
When designers point to any piece of sketch geometry,
all of the related constraints are illuminated in yellow
so they can instantly see which parts of the sketch are
constrained to the item. Alternatively designers can
point to a specifi c constraint in a constraint bar and its
associated or cross-constraint is highlighted in yellow
so they can quickly tell which other constraints are
related to it.

Display remaining constraints
A new constraint feedback area appears at the bottom
of the Inventor window when a sketch is active. This
area provides continuous feedback of the number of
constraints required for a fully constrained sketch so
designers can quickly see how many constraints they
need to add in order to fully constrain their sketch.

Constraint visibility control
Located on the context menu in the graphics window,
the new Constraint Visibility control provides a check
box for each type of constraint so designers can control
the visibility of each constraint type individually.

New Reference constraint
A new Reference constraint is created when model
geometry is projected onto the sketch plane to indicate
that the geometry is reference geometry. Pointing to
this constraint highlights both the sketch geometry and
the referenced model geometry.

Sketch Edit Tools
Inventor 2008 extends the existing tools for modifying
sketch geometry. These tools allow users to modify
constrained geometry while preserving unaff ected
constraints and dimensions.

Improved Move, Copy, and Rotate tools
The existing Move and Rotate tools have been enhanced
with dynamic preview, constraint, and dimension
override capabilities, and direct access to the Precise
Input tool. A new Copy tool is introduced although the
Move tool can still be used to create copies.

Stretch tool
Inventor already supports stretch operations when
clicking and dragging underconstrained geometry.
The new Stretch tool extends this capability so
that users can stretch constrained geometry while
preserving internal sketch constraints. The new Stretch
tool provides more ways to stretch geometry with
more predictable results than using constrained drag.

Scale tool
The new Scale tool allows designers to change the
size of 2D sketch geometry quickly by selecting the
geometry then specifying a scale factor. Designers can
make the geometry smaller (scale factor less than one)
or bigger (scale factor greater than one).

Geometry Formatting Tools
With Inventor 2008, designers can control the format
of sketch geometry using the new Properties toolbar
to modify color, line weight, and line style. In addition,
importing AutoCAD geometry into an Inventor sketch
preserves the format in the original DWG fi le.
The Properties toolbar includes a toggle control
for switching between the custom and default
sketch attributes.

Enhanced User Interface
The user interface for Inventor 2008 has been updated.
These changes include enhancements to increase
productivity as well as changes designed to reduce
unnecessary visual diff erences between Inventor and
AutoCAD that can cause confusion for people who
work with both products.
