3ds Max Modeling :: Trajectories Are Virtually Identical In Shape And Number Of Points

Feb 11, 2011

I've got two trajectories from the bottom of two tires and I want to create a road surface, an object whose shape will match the trajectories, thereby creating a perfect shadow catcher.

The trajectories are virtually identical in shape and number of points because the two point helpers that created them were wired together. I've converted them into splines and messed with the loft tool, with not so good results. I ended up brute forcing the shape of the object into some kind of shape but I think there has to be a good, dependable way to do this in a program like max.

Illustrator :: Identical Engravings - Increment Labels (Serial Number)?

Feb 19, 2011

We'll be getting a laser engraver, and have been considering Illustrator to format the designs. Some of our engravings will include serial numbers. So I was wondering (having never used Illustrator) if I could create a file containg, say 10 identical engravings - except for an automatically incrementing serial number (I would set the first serial number, and the 9 others would follow). The 10 engravings would be applied to 10 similar parts simultaneously.

CorelDRAW X3 :: How To Rotate Multiple Identical Circles (any Shape) Around A Single Point

Dec 4, 2008

I am trying to figure out how I can rotate many different circles (could really be any shape) aound a single point?  For example, say I have 10 identically sized circles and want to rotate each one tangent to a single point every 36 degrees.  Hopefully I am making sense and explaining the situation correctly.  Is there a quick method using CorelDraw's tools/features to accomplish this task?

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Use Specific Shape To Carve Out Primary Shape

Feb 25, 2012

Here when ever i click on the editable poly modifier again this happens, now im pretty sure this is not supposed to happen,

i tried searching the internet and several forums but no results (maybe im just missing some 3dsmax vocabulary so i didnt coin the term for it)

How do i use a specific shape to carve out a primary shape

e.g. putting a sphere inside a box (sphere is protruding from all 6 faces) and carving out the box

Edit: changed the image to a link and added the scene file as an attachmentbutcher_knife.zip

The best that work out was giving it a path constrain to a sphere changing to a rectangle and making some snapshot which it does not give me the specific control I need.

See image to see what I am trying to model, image is from NADAA, and am trying to do something similar to this but I can't.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Points At A Specific Number?

Apr 19, 2012

I am trying to set several hundred points along polyline verticies with the point number starting at 5000. There are no other points in my drawing, yet everytime I start the process, it begins at 1. I have set 5000 at my Next Point Number under Point Identity in the Create Points toolbar. I have also verified that the 'Save Command Settings" is set to yes under the 'Commands-Create Points'. We cannot get this to behave as desired.

This is a 2D polyline with no elevations.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Increase Number Of Points In Point Cloud?

Feb 21, 2013

I have a point cloud with 161 million points in it. This is basically fine and works well but I need to create equally high resolution surfaces from certain regions of the point cloud. No matter what size I choose my export shape, it will only create a surface from a ridiculously small 750,000 odd points, a 'feature' which has been documented on these forums before. I have POINTCLOUDDENSITY set to 100. 

My question is, how can I build a surface from this high resolution point cloud data that has more than 750,000 odd points?

 I'm thinking about mosaic'ing - ie. making several smaller surfaces over the required area and pasting them together.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Number Of Points On BALLOON LEADER

Jul 29, 2013

In AutoCAD leader settings you can set the number of point so the leader looks standard. I am searching for this in inventor and am coming up empty. I have seen other engineering drawings where I can tell that the generated data in the balloon was entered from the parts column in the B.O.M. But instead of part numbers, I have seen text. and I have mine set up to generate the Balloons that way but I do not like the leader type it is giving me. The attachment is what my leaders are looking like in inventor.

AutoCad 2D :: Reduce Number Of Vertex Points In Polyline Or 3DPolyline?

Oct 9, 2013

Any way to reduce the number of vertex points in a polyline or 3d polyline and retain the basic shape but without having to redraw over the top it?

Ideally, I would like any adjacent segments which are in the same direction as each other to become one segment.

In my image you can see the number of points it has, the majority of which are not necessary for my needs (it was imported from a client's drawing). My desired linetype will also not show because of this.

GIMP :: How To Virtually Rescale Layers

Nov 2, 2012

Is it possible to "virtually" rescale layers in the Gimp? Or is this planned? Because it would be an awesome feature.

What I mean is this: When you "virtually" rescale a layer, everything behaves as if it were a normal layer rescale operation, but internally the GIMP remembers the original image size. This means if I change my mind later and want to resize again (make it bigger for example), I don't lose quality. Or is this maybe already be possible somehow and has evaded me?

Lightroom :: 5 Virtually Stopped Working

Jan 18, 2014

My Lightroom 5 has virtually stopped working.  Starting around the time I installed the 5.3 upgrade, when I click on anything, the program is non- responsive literally for several minutes. sometimes as much as 15 minutes.  For example, I'll click "Import", and have yo wait several minutes. Then when it finally responds, I select the folder on the hard drive that has the photos I want.  Several more minutes, I select "Move", and wait several more minutes.  The whole process for the simple thing I am trying to do can take a half hour.
 
I have rebooted my machine several times.  I have restored the operating system to a time a week ago when I did not have these probalems.  I have reverted back to 5.2. I re-installed 5.3.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Database - Imported Points Being Assigned Very High Point Number

Feb 12, 2013

When I import points from a survey database there is a very large new number being assigned to points that have overlap/numbering conflicts.

I had some survey from one source that was in the 1000 pt # range & additional survey that was in same numbering sequence.

When importing the points I chose "Resolve all" it is renumbering the Point number value to the 5xxxxxxxx range?

Is there some setting where I can change this to a lower # or how/why this is happening?

Next Point Number value @ Settings Tab>Point>Commands>CreatePoints>Point Identity>Next Point Number = 3.

I've attached a couple of captions illustrating the issue.
