You can place a decal on a model face for uses such as labels, brand name art, logos, and warranty seals. You insert an image in a sketch, use constraints and dimensions to position it, and then select the image to apply as the decal.
A decal usually is a stocked item and has its own part number. If so, create it as a part and use it in multiple assemblies. One way to do this is to create a thin part, such as an extruded surface and place the decal on the surface.
If you create the decal on a part instead of a surface, use Delete Face on the 3D Model tab and remove unneeded faces. The part is automatically converted to a surface.
In this tutorial we will learn how to use Decal option in Autodesk Inventor. You can download the texture from this link.
Autodesk Inventor – Move & Rotate
When you constrain or join assembly components to one another, you control their position. To move or rotate a component, either temporarily or permanently, use one of the following methods:
Autodesk Inventor – Scale Assembly
One of the new features in Inventor is the ability to scale your models. You might be wondering, why didn’t Inventor have this ability prior to the release?

You can import points from a Microsoft® Excel spreadsheet into a 2D sketch, 3D sketch, or drawing sketch. You can use the points to represent items such as inspection points, locations for spot welds, and points on a spline.

Autodesk Inventor – 2D Sketch / Constraints
The idea that geometry within Autodesk Inventor behaves differently due to the application of constraints often hinders new users transitioning from a 2D drawing application.
Autodesk Inventor uses constraints in two primary ways:
2D and 3D sketch constraints control geometry within sketches
Assembly constraints and joints establish relationships between components in an assembly that control position and behavior.
