About InvAmp

InvAmp is an add-in for Autodesk Inventor by TT Engineering. It collects the everyday jobs around parts, assemblies, sheet metal and drawings into one dockable panel.

Use it to:

  • Read and edit the iProperties of whatever is selected, with a preview.
  • Place, isolate and mirror components, and check an assembly before it goes to the shop.
  • Rename a part together with its drawing.
  • Reuse components and sketch blocks from your own libraries.
  • Export a whole assembly in one run: STEP, PDF, DXF and DWG, nesting drawings and a manufacturing pack.
  • Build a bill of materials and send it to Excel.
  • Run a design report on an assembly and save it as a PDF.

Pages open in the panel's page area 1. Choose a page from the icon bar 2.

Where InvAmp keeps its data

InvAmp writes its settings to %APPDATA%\InvAmp\settings.ini. It writes a log of failures to %APPDATA%\InvAmp\log. Files it produces, such as exports and drawings, go to folders you choose.

Note:InvAmp sends nothing over the network. The one exception is the optional Google Sheets export of a bill of materials, which works only after you enter your own Google credentials. See Settings.
