Re: A few Inventor award questions

Dissconected assemblies and Bill of Materials.... I think you are talking about exploded views and part lists in a .idw drawings? Exploded views are created by inserting assemblies in presentation files and using the explode feature. You can do an auto-explode or use tweak components and manually move the pieces around. As for the parts list you can take the presntation file.....put it into the .idw file....and somewhere on the annotation panel i beleive is the parts list function. They are not as complicated to make as they seem.....I hope this is what you were talking about....if not, let me know i can give you real specific directions on how to do this stuff or point you towards the right place (sdotson is a really good website to check out.)
These exploded views and part list things are my specialty.
