Finding what you need
May 22, 2009, 06:11 PM Garin Gardiner
There have been several things done to Inventor 2010 to make it easier for you to find what you need. If you are on subscription, there is a key at the top right of the screen that will get you directly into the Subscription Center. This is full of training material, downloads and several other things that might be of use to you.
The first time you click on the Subscription Center icon you will need to create an account which entails entering in your contract number that you received when you purchased Inventor Subscription.
Once you have entered in the contract number you will be able to navigate to the Subscription Center site any time you want right from Inventor.
Another great item is the Communication Center icon (satellite). From here you can see the latest tips, tricks and news from all the Autodesk Manufacturing blogs as well as add your own that can be viewed right from Inventor. This is a great way to see if we have added any new tips recently.
Don't forget about the Search tool! This is a great new addition for Inventor 2010. You can enter in something you are trying to learn about and it will search Inventor's main help itemsas well as Autodesk online. You can even specify other areas on your computer that you would like to searchas well.
Enjoy the weekend!

Thanks, Garin. IV's help just keeps getting better and better! The Subscription Booth and your recent Virtual Event confirmed that, as Subscription members, we should have access the the Autodesk University site as an "added bonus" (membership has it's priveledges). Upon testing this with a user who was not able to attend this year, he's finding that his Subscription site username and password does not grant him access to the AU site. Can you comment on the process we should take for those who are Subscription site members but did not actually attend AU this year?

What you do is login into sub center, then click on the promo box on the right hand side of the home page – this will take you to a landing page for Sub customers only and it will provide instructions.If you have an existing account you can log in from this landingpage ant it will create and association that gives you access to AU content or you can create a new account.
