  • User over-ride area: In previous releases of Autodesk Inventor®, users with graphics problems were sometimes able to fix those by changing DWORD values for "Workarounds" or "SwapType" entries in various sub-keys of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Since the release of Autodesk Inventor® 5.3, all changes should be made by adding these registry settings to a single over-ride area, for Autodesk Inventor® 6, 7, 8, and 9 respectively:
    • [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion6.0 SystemPreferencesDriver]
    • [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion7.0 SystemPreferencesDriver]
    • [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion8.0 SystemPreferencesDriver]
    • [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion9.0 SystemPreferencesDriver]
    • [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion10.0 SystemPreferencesDriver]
