First public release.
Autodesk Inventor Professional 2026 installs from Autodesk's own download and runs under Wine on Arch Linux (Hyprland or KDE Plasma) - no Windows, no virtual machine. Demo videos are in the README.

What works

  • installation of Inventor 2026 + updates (2026.4) and Content Center, one command
  • sign-in and licensing in your normal browser
  • sketches, parts, assemblies, Content Center, Design Accelerator
  • drawings, including the dimension text editor with symbols and GD&T-
  • iLogic, Stress Analysis (mesh, simulate, results)
  • export to STEP, STL, PDF

Wine fixes
21 small patches (14 Wine components) for Wine bugs Inventor runs into (WMI, file dialog, type libraries, MSI updates, rich edit, common controls, activation contexts, COM/RPC, X11 under Xwayland). They are built automatically for your installed Wine and documented in docs/arch-hyprland.md.

Known issues

  • Frame Analysis, Dynamic Simulation: off by default, untested
  • GPU ray tracing does not work (needs Direct3D 12 ray tracing)
  • tested on Arch Linux with Hyprland and KDE Plasma (Wayland); other distributions not yet

Install

git clone https://github.com/Harvi654/Autodesk-Inventor-for-Linux.git ~/inventor-on-linux
