What's New in Installation and Deployment

New this year is the availability of the Desktop Content

Libraries when creating deployment.

You can now deploy Desktop Content locally to users'

computers from the install deployment wizard. In the

Deployment configuration options, select Desktop Content

option. The Desktop Content will be installed locally on all

users computers.

Note: This type of shared environment (sharing Desktop

Content) does not provide the security control that is

available from managing the libraries on the Vault server.

Deploy Desktop Content to local computers

The online Wiki Help is now the default Help for Autodesk

Inventor and LT. If you are online and access the Help, the

online Wiki Help displays.

If you need to work offline and need access to the product

help, you can download the Help locally to your computer.

When you are offline, the local Help will display. Download

the Local Help from here:

CAD Managers and IT Managers: If you want to provide the

Local Help to your user base, you can deploy the Local Help

through the deployment wizard.

section: http://autodesk.com/wikihelp-pds-install-2013-enu

The following user preferences are removed from the

installer, and are now available from within Inventor post-

Installation.

User Profile

The User Profile options are now available at the bottom of

the Application Options dialog box: Click the down-arrow

next to Import and select Use AutoCAD Related Settings or

Use Inventor Settings.

Measurement Units/Drawing Standard default settings

The Measurement Units/Drawing Standard default settings

have been moved to the Configure Default Template dialog

box. Access the Configure Default Template dialog box from:

User preferences

The Welcome Screen

The Application Options dialog box: Select the File tab, and

then click the Configure Default Template button.

Part Modification

The Part Modification settings have been moved to The

Application Options dialog box: Select the Drawing tab, and

then select or deselect the Enable part modification from

within drawings checkbox to enable or disable.

Note Before this change, these settings were available only on

the installer media, and changes to the default preferences

required an uninstall and reinstall of Autodesk Inventor.

User preferences

Autodesk Inventor and Autodesk Inventor LT are now Citrix-

Ready™ certified products.

With Citrix, team members can connect to their corporate

desktop applications without having to install those desktop

applications on their individual computer.

content such as models, training materials, and eBooks) –

and is available to several Autodesk Products. You can

download some items for free, and some for a price.

Purchasing is handled via PayPal at this time. Purchases and

downloads can be tracked online, or by using the Autodesk

Exchange App Manager that is included with the respective
