One of the few 3D printing books that also focuses on the project design, it's packed with full-color photos and screen shots that make 3D printing easier than it's ever been before.

Some existing commands have been enhanced, including Sweep, which now has the ability to sweep a tool body, and Frame Generator, which adds End Cap functionality and improves Notch, Miter and Insert Frame workflows.3D Printing with Autodesk covers everything the reader needs to know - even absolute beginners, and even if for readers who do not own a 3D printer. This book takes students all the way from idea to physical object in practically no time. Inventor 2020 adds a new command called Unwrap, which allows users to flatten a set of continuous faces into a flat surface. Screenshot of the new Unwrap command in Inventor 2020. There’s also a new read-only mode allowing any Inventor file to be viewed in canvas without requiring a license. Inventor 2020 also enhances support for multi-monitor workflows,allowing users to dock multiple Inventor files on multiple screens within a single Inventor session.

For example, the Extrude, Sweep, Revolve and Thread commands have all been moved to panels. The theme comes with new lighting styles, command icons and graphic presets. Like AutoCAD 2020, Inventor 2020 delivers a new theme interface-but it’s a light theme rather than AutoCAD’s new dark theme.
