I am very interested in an answer to this one. We are also about to move
to Performer 3.2 and make very heavy use of Inventor with the iv loader.
We are noticing that it is getting more and more difficult to get the
Inventor software installed on Linux since the Inventor distribution has
not been updated in a long time. Maybe around a year ago, I recall Allan
saying that they were looking at a stand alone Inventor loader that does
not require a separate Inventor installation.
What is the current story with regard to the Performer .iv loader.
Thanks,
Steve
