  1. Can you hear and see the lessons on your computer?

    Yes.  The lessons run from you CD drive and they are in audio/video format.  You will see and hear each task while the instructor explains how to perform the tasks.

  2. What lessons are in your courses?

    You can find the list of lessons in each course by clicking the course in the menu above.  You can watch some of the lessons now by clicking the highlighted lessons in the list.  Each lesson title is like a chapter in a book filled with tips and tricks and many more subtopics, as you see from watching some of the lessons in the list.

  3. Is the tutorial stand alone, or is it an add-on to Inventor?

    Our tutorials are stand alone software.  They do not run within Inventor or any other software.

  4. When I run the tutorial I can't see the control buttons.  What's wrong?

    The minimum required display resolution is 1024 X 768.  When your screen resolution is set to a resolution less than 1024 X 768, the control buttons are located beyond the edge of the screen.   Change your display resolution to 1024 X 768 or higher.  Also make sure the color setting is 65536 colors or higher.  Inventor requires 65536 colors or higher to display properly.

  8. What is the Memory Jogger?

    The Memory Jogger helps you quickly find out how to perform a command.  It's similar to a typical help menu.  Type a few keywords and watch a lesson about your keywords.

  9. Can I download the tutorial?

    The answer to this question is Yes and No.  You can watch free sample lessons, and you can sign up to watch our free online course.  So far the answer has been yes, but it's time for the no part.  The online course shows the basics of using Autodesk Inventor, and the file size of each lesson is small enough to download over the internet.  As the concepts get more complex, the size of the files increase as well as the length of the lessons.  For more information about our online course and sample lessons, visit our Sample Lessons page.

  10. Do I have to have the CD in my CD drive to run the tutorial?

    Yes.  The lesson files are stored on the CD.  Each CD has over 450 MB of lesson files.  Instead of using 450 MB of your hard drive, the lessons are stored on the CD.

  11. Do I have to have Inventor installed to use the tutorial?

    No.  It's not required, but we recommend it.  You should have Inventor installed so that you can use it to practice the lessons.

  12. How do I turn the tutorial off?

    To turn off the tutorial, simply click the X Icon at the top right.  When you restart the tutorial the last lesson you where watching will begin playing.

  13. Can I install the tutorial on more than one computer?
