Drawings are often where engineering automation efforts slow down. Manual view placement, repetitive notes, title block updates, balloons, parts lists, and sketch cleanup can consume hours across every project. In this 6th session of Autodesk Inventor Automation Academy, we’ll bring together multiple drawing automation workflows into a single practical session focused on eliminating repetitive drafting tasks with the Inventor API and iLogic.

You’ll see how to automate the creation and management of drawing views, annotations, title blocks, tables, hatching, balloons, sketches, and documentation standards directly inside Autodesk Inventor. Whether you’re building internal automation tools or looking to standardize outputs across engineering teams, this session will help you understand how drawing automation fits into a larger design automation strategy.

Our agenda:

  • Automating Drawing View Creation
  • Working with Title Blocks and Drawing Standards
  • Automating Notes, Balloons, and Parts Lists
  • Managing Tables and Drawing Data
  • Sketches, Hatching, and Draft View Automation
  • Structuring Reusable Drawing Automation Workflows
