Here are my current favourite tips for the freeform modelling environment in Inventor 2017. Spoiler alert:
Tip 1: Use ‘soft modification’ to get the behaviour you want for rounded edges.
Tip 2: Great method of selecting a range of connected edges (note - this is different from selecting the entire loop of edges).
Tip 3: Be aware of the order of freeform operations.
Check out the video and happy freeforming!
