Inventor (and most other Autodesk products) utilizes time tracking to provide your usage data to Autodesk. Autodesk in turn, creates reporting metrics in the account management portal, for viewing by your contract manager/primary admin. The constant time checking tasks that run to facilitate this usage reporting may crash (or fail to start) the program if the system time is incorrect.

Mate Reference feature can be added to frequently used components to automate common mates. Follow the steps to know ‘How to Automatically Repair a Missing Mate Reference’ Step 1 When you right-click on an assembly Mate reference that’s missing or broken, you can select Auto Repair to automatically define a new reference. Step 2 SOLIDWORKS repairs the missing reference by selecting a component reference
Read moreMany times it is required to view a designed model from all directions under one window to understand its visualizations. In NX “Model-Based Definition (MBD)” we give Dimensions, Annotations, or some other tools/commands that need different views to apply different functions. Users can have the option to see all the Dimensions, Annotations, or some other tools/commands to be applied in different views under

In parts and assemblies, you can define coordinate systems by entering absolute numeric values for position and orientation. These values define the position relative to the local origin, and not the global origin.
To know how these numerical defined coordinate systems works follow below steps and videos.
