I'm having trouble finding this functionality. Is there a way to type say 3+1 into a parameter, like lengthSegs and it result in 4? Or type 1.2* in something like scale X and have it result in 1.2 times whatever the parameter value was?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create an attribute that displays the product of an Area of an object in the block and the value of a different attribute. For instance, here is what makes up the dynamic block:
1 rectangle (with width and height parameters and stretch actions)
1 Attribute called "ForcePerSQIN" - the value of this is entered separately for every instance of the block by the user
1 Attribute called "Total Force"
In the "Total Force" attribute, I want to create a field that contains a formula to multiply the area of the rectangle (which I am able to obtain with no problems using the Area property of the rectangle object type) by the value of the "ForcePerSQIN" attribute, which is user-defined. The problem I have is that it appears as if the value of this attribute is treated as text and thus cannot be used in the calculation; I get ######.
Is there a way to make the "ForcePerSQIN" parameter treat the user-defined value as a number instead of text so that it can be used in the calculation? Or is there a better way to accomplish my ultimate goal?
I was wondering if there was a way to make conditional formulas with a parameter? So I want a parameter called system. On the pulldown to enter the field under properties.
Â
 I want there to be 3 choices (i.e. 1=Air, 2=Water, 3=Gas).Â
Â
If the user tries to enter any value other than the 3 values specified (whether by typing or pulldown), a message comes up stating they cant do that. The names for the systems have been simplifed for this example but the spelling is critical to the external database. I have tried but but I keep getting the follwoing is not a valid family parameter: X. X because thats the first conditional value.Â
I have a form I'm creating in CorelDraw and I would like to be able to input numbers and have a table that performs calculations similar to what Excel does. Â It's basically going to add up prices and then calculate tax.

Is there a way to parse or truncate a field in the formula area of the field dialog box?I'm familiar with LISP and DIESEL but the file dialog box / formula area does not seem to accept those functions. Will it take a .NET function? If so, what? Or, is there another option I'm overlooking?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to know if there is a way / setting that I can turn of to where can do simple math problems when inputing numbers say for like offsetting a line without having to use AutoLisp.
For example if I was to offset a line I would type in "5.75/2" and get 2.875. I would like to be able to do this without having to type ( / 5.75 2).
Is there a way to do this without having to type all of that.
I am using AutoCad 2014, and at work we design driveline equipment so a lot of the drawings are from a front view to a section view, and for like a round cover that is in the front view it is easy to offset the centerline in the section view by the radius and continue drawing the section view.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm wondering if its possible to link either a constraint dimension to an action parameter or vice versa. Or using a linear parameter's value in an user parameter formula.
Its a 2D cylinder, for winding purposes we just have a rectangle, with a distance from the Y axis for radial.
Parametric dimensions: B=thickness, C=Lenght, R=radius
User parameter: A=Diameter (R*2), Mass in kg ((((pi*(c*b))*(A+B))*1.25)/1000)/1000
For the BOM, i need A, B, C & mass
For drawing references for peoples on the floor, to distinquish a cylinder from a stick, we put lines at the top and bottom of the cylinder, 1mm distance inbetween them.
I figured that making a linear parameter + stretch on the thickness to replace the B parametric dimension, allowed me to make an array of that line, with increments of 1mm as i stretch the cylinder. The thing is that the mass formula cant take the value of action parameters....
Other alternative is to keep the B parametric dimension, and add a linear parameter as above for the array. But then i have 2 places to adjust, and from a test i made, if i change the R dimension, the linear one does not follow. Its very frustrating.
What i was hoping autocad would be able to do is distance1 for array to be same as B dimension, but it does not allow me to do that, unless im missing something.
Simply adds the two components. But this is only correct if there is no transparency involved.
Once there is transparency involved, it gets more complex. So, what is the math behind the linear dodge blending mode if the top layer has semi-transparent pixels (=alpha less than 1)?
For successive layers, all have different blend modes ... for finding the pixel values seen on screen, we should start with the bottom most layer ... isn't it?

View 20 Replies View Relateddisplay math equations as in-place vector OLE objects in Coreldraw 12.It looks like the Mathtype OLE in CDR saga is still not resolved, even with the latest Mathytype and Corel X5. The option to insert as a bitmap is not at all convenient - one wishes to be able to edit in-place and have vector scalability.
The work-arounds posted in various forums don't seem to work with complex mathematical symbols, adding fonts to the system doesn't seem to work, WMF/EMF also getting messed up, and so on. As Mathtype works flawlessly e.g. in MS Office and Open Office, the question is what is CDR doing...
I recently tried another program, "Aurora" [URL] , which renders *Latex* equations as vector OLE objects - quite nice (there are a couple of other Latex OLE solutions out there, but this one has the options I need). Free trial version.
Aurora supports both vector and bitmap rendering. Vector rendering works perfectly in all programs I tried, except ... Coreldraw. Choosing vector rendering shows some horrible font substitution. I tried adding the Latex fonts to the Windows system, but the problem seems to prevail (and all the other programs, e.g. Word, OO, work fine without doing this). But maybe it is just my version and system configuration.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been building binary gray scales in Photoshop. The source psd is 16 bit RGB, 1000x1000 pixels. I use the color picker and paint bucket to fill consecutive boxes with ascending binary 8 bit values (color picker only allows selecting 8 bit values). A simple 8 step binary gray scale would be 0, 32, 64, 96, 128, 160, 192, 224, and 255. These values are exactly what I would type into the color picker and confirm on the Info tab.
I then save the file as a 16 bit tiff and read back the RGB values with an external image viewer. In all cases the values in 16 bit are off by multiple 16 bit steps. Instead of 0, 8192,16384, 24576, 32768, 40960, 49432, 57344, & 65535, I read 0, 8224, 16448, 24672, 33153, 41119, 49343, 57567, & 65535. Convert the file to 8 bit and values read 0, 32, 64, 96, 127, 159, 223, and 255. I do not understand how PhotoShop employs +/- 32768 to define 65536 colors let alone how it converts. My project requires I can predict the values.
I seem to recall reading something that indicated you could get back to ACR after you have made some changes in Photoshop?
Â
If so, under what circumstances does it work, and which menu items get you there?Can you bring files into a plugin, and then get back to ACR after returning to PS?
Â
I have CS5.1 (with the last patches to CS5.1).
I created a new blank file with 16 bit per channel mode.
I expect that RGB values would be three 16-bit numbers (0 to 65535) but when I try to manually enter a RGB value, each color is still 0 to 255.
