I have only really started to use inventor in a more significant capacity in my drafting and modeling work, and it is nice to know that Autodesk is open to feedback and has continued to update one of its flagship programs. The idea of a Level of Detail view, in my opinion, will really open up Inventor even more in our industry than it already is. I've found in my modeling process that inventor doesn't quite line up with the way that I learned technical design for theatre, but this new feature will allow us to retain some of our standard drafting practices while also incorporating more advanced parametric techniques. For example, I think we often like to omit certain features in our draftings for the sake of simplicity (which is often really useful for shop carpentry), which the Level of Detail feature would allow us to do. On a different point, I also appreciate that they are including tolerancing on extrusions. Originally, the way I would do this was by specifying a work plate with a tolerance, and then extrude to that plane. It worked, but didn't make intuitive sense. In many ways, Inventor is growing on me, and that's coming from a solidworks kid.
