Features

Everything Flow brings to your Inventor workflow.

Property Edit Panel

A configurable dockable panel that shows only the properties your team needs. Edit the active document or click any assembly component — edit in place without opening the file.

  • Apply with a single keystroke or click. Flow only writes if the value changed.
  • Dropdown lists with your approved values. Make them required to enforce standards.
  • Colour-coded accents — blue for Part, orange for Assembly, purple for Drawing.
  • Thumbnail in the panel to verify you are editing the right component.
  • Linked lists — one property drives what's available in another.
  • Copy / Paste property values between components.

Hover — Live Model Inspection

Activate Hover from the ribbon. Move your cursor over any component. A tooltip appears with the properties you selected — Part Number, Description, Quantity, even a thumbnail. Every instance of that component highlights across the assembly.

Thickness — Live Wall-Thickness Analysis

Point at any surface and see wall thickness at that exact location, updated live as you move. Instant quality check for sheet metal, thin-walled plastics, and more.

iLogic Rules Module

Give every external iLogic script a proper ribbon button with your own icon, label, and tooltip. Buttons enable/disable automatically based on document type.

Tools Module

AutoSize

Writes X/Y/Z bounding-box dimensions to parameters and iProperties on every save.

Create Independent

Makes a fully independent copy of any assembly component — new file, new name, zero shared references.

Replace with Selected

Swap occurrences of one component for another already in the assembly.

Export PNG

One-click high-resolution PNG of the current view. Transparent background, configurable resolution.

Place from Tabs

Place an already-open document into the active assembly — faster than file browsing.

Mass to Custom Property

Writes computed mass to a custom iProperty on every save. Title blocks always show current values.

Drawing Module

  • Make Drawing — Automated drawing creation from models.
  • Extent Dimension — Smart dimension placement.
  • Update Drawing Resources — Keep drawing resources in sync.

Team Configuration

Place your configuration on a network share or in Vault. Every Flow installation points to that single folder. Update the config — every user gets the change on next restart. Licence files work the same way.

Dark Mode

Flow adapts to Inventor's dark theme natively. The Property Edit panel, all dialogs, dropdowns, and tooltips follow the theme. Licensed users get full dark-mode support.
