3ds Max :: Slow Viewport Background
Oct 18, 2011I`ve noticed the background image (from environment slot) is extremely slow in the viewport. I`ve tested this without any geometry and the only speed-up I can achieve is by turning off the image filtering (to `none`).
Spinning the viewport with an environment image always use to be instant, now it`s anything up to 10 or so seconds before update.
3ds Max :: Viewport Always Ran Extremely Slow
Apr 27, 2013I've been using 3DS Max 2013 on a Win7 PC and my current project has some extremely heavy scene files. I know about layers, meshsmooth render iterations, and all the basic techniques, but despite all that, Max's viewport has always ran extremely slow. recently my boss gave me a new (extremely more powerful) PC, only thing is, it runs Max the same, if not worse, and I don't know what to tell him.
By all means this is a much faster and more powerful PC but it runs 3DS Max horribly.

Sep 20, 2013I am working with something new in AE this week and I am curious if I am doing something wrong. I need to insert a 3D thumb tack PSD file I imported into AE with a film I am working on. As a test I just wanted to see what quailty the pin would render out for the final because the preview in AE looked horrible. So I have a static shot of the Thumb tack and it is going for 10 seconds. I started the Render and it has been going for 9 minutes so far and still shows 1hr 28 minutes left. I've rendered 8 minutes music videos in 45 minutes on this same PC.
I am using a PSD for 3D because I do not have 3D software.
3ds Max :: Imported Model From Sketchup - Zoom Feature In Viewport
Nov 14, 2013I imported a model into 3dsMax from Sketchup.
The model is a 5200 sf interior building space that I had applied materials & components to in Sketchup.
Now that I am working on the model in 3ds Max, I am having some issues with the application of materials to the objects. Basically, some of the objects kept some of the materials that I had applied in Sketchup; however, some of the materials did not come through into Max. When I try to remedy this and apply the correct materials to the object, it is linked/grouped to several other objects in the model that I do not want to apply the material to.
I have tried to make a copy of the material in the material editor and then reapply to the object, but it still applies it to several other unrelated objects.
Also, I seem to be having trouble with my zoom feature in the viewport....my zoom will sometimes work, but sometimes it will zoom all the way to extents of the model, and won't let me zoom back into the interior of the model space; I don't know if this problem is related to the previous issue.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Newly Created Viewport Blanks Out Another Viewport
Jan 23, 2013Problem: When I create a new viewport, another viewport's paperspace blanks out or disappears. When I copy a viewport over, the new VP doesn't show anything and you can't maximize/"enter" its paperspace; it's like a simple rectangle, but the properties box says it is indeed a viewport.
Ex. Viewport 1 shows the top view of an object, Viewport 2 shows the right side view... as soon as I add Viewport 3, the top view in VP 1 blacks out. I attempt to ReDraw, Regenerate, etc, but it doesn't re-appear. I've run Plot Preview to see if maybe it's just a fluke with the graphics card on my screen, but alas, even in plot preview the viewport is blanked out.
It almost seems like there is a limited number of viewports I can use.
Solution: Run the MaxActVP command and set the value to a number greater than the number of VPs you actually need. This particular file had that value set at 2; hence, why a new, third VP blanked out the first one.
Revit :: Delete Imported DWG Category From Imported Objects
Nov 3, 2011I have a dwg that someone imported and I cannot find where this object is. I have tried searching the database with DBLink, Ideate BIMLink and I have gone into every view to no avail. I also used the reviTTools add-in which says there are no drawings in the file. Am I dealing with a corrupted file? I am super OCD and this is in our Template which makes it an even bigger problem.

Jul 12, 2012I have a drawing with a viewport that fits to the page. And I created another smaller viewport over top that just shows the legend. Now when I try to double click inside the smaller viewport it always goes into the larger one. I have tried bringing the smaller one to the front but that didn't work. I know that I can clip the larger viewport around the smaller one or bring the legend right into paperspace or slid the smaller one off to the side work in it and slide it back. This is more out of curiosity of how to get into the smaller viewport.

Jul 1, 2011I did a test drawing with 4 viewports in paperspace.I frozen a layer in each viewport (as a viewport override, not global), and wrote code to gather info on layer overrides in viewports.The function takes in a database, and is generally used on drawings only open in memory:
public static bool GetLayerInfoFromDB2(Database db) { //do viewports on layoutstry {using (Transaction tr = db. Transaction Manager. Start Transaction()) { ObjectId ldid = db.LayoutDictionaryId;DBDictionary ld = (DBDictionary)tr.GetObject(ldid,
[code]....
the odd thing is it never finds the frozen viewports on the first viewport. It catches the others fine.I cannot see anything odd either, the counts of viewports and layers are all correct, and the drawing has no problems.Is there something that must be done to initialize the mechanism that reads viewport overrides?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCorel PHOTO-PAINT X4 :: Imported PNG Graphic Disappears When Imported Into Another PNG Graphic
May 26, 2011I create a graphic in Corel Draw X4 and export it as a .png file. It is a button with rounded corners. It will be going on a black background when put into an iphone app. So as to not have the little white corners show up from the rectangular export window, I made the button on top of a black rectangle, slightly larger than the button. I then selected the black to be transparant during the dialogs of exporting to png. When viewed in an image viewer the black is indeed transparent and does not show up. All looks fine.
To test what it will look like when put on top of a black background, I also make a black square and export it as a .png. I then open the black background in Corel Photopaint and then import the graphic into the background image. A siloutte of it shows up with the marque borders but the graphic itself (the colors and contents of the graphic don't). When combined with the black background it just disappears. Why doesn't it just lay on top of the other graphic?
AutoCAD Map 3D :: How To Get Shapefiles Imported
Mar 22, 2012I'm working on a project to map or local cemetery, showing borders, sections, lots, & grave spaces. I'm running into a situation that I just can't seem to get a handle on.
I have a set of shape files from our local GIS dept of the area around our cemetery. When I examine them in QGIS, everything looks OK. Measuring the distance between two known points returns 204 feet.
Now, switching to AutoCAD Map 2012, I'm running into some issues. I've tried MAPCONNECT and MAPIMPORT with the same results.I create a new drawing, assign the projection (MI83-SIF) and then attach / import the shape files. Units for the drawing are standard decimal. Using the MEASUREGEOM, I measure between two points and get 204 (which is what I would expect in feet). When I change the units to Architectural, then MEASUREGEOM returns 17'. So, it appears that, while "204" in the shape file should be feet, AutoCAD Map is interpreting it as inches.
Any thoughts and how I can get the shape files imported so that I can create updates in Architectural or Engineering units?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Imported STP File For FEA
Nov 26, 2012I have been given several drawings to perform FEA analysis. These files are solidworks files, but my school does not have the FEA package so I had to export the files to a .stp file to import it into Inventor.
On top of that, the SolidWorks file I need to analyze is an assembly, so I 'saved as' the assembly in Solidworks as a part to have one solid part.
The file seems to import fine at first, I can create sketches onto faces. But when I go to create an analysis, and try to set a fixed point or force load, I cannot select a face. I tried to "cheat" and add some material to the faces I wanted to use. When I run the analysis, it just doesn't recognize the initial material in the 'mesh'.
I CANNOT include full screenshots of the system, due to the nature of the project. I can show small clipped shots of the software status, but not the drawing itself. If seeing the "model" box on the left would work, I can supply that with the drawing names blacked out.
AutoCad 3D :: Model Imported From Inventor Too Big
Mar 4, 2013I am currently working on a model which was first created using inventor. Its is a drawing contaning tanks and pipeworks.I have looked into the drawing and have noticed that all the parts are 3d solids. The file size is over 100mb which makes the drawing impossible to work on.
Resolving the file size issue? Maybe converting all the solids to blocks?
I will be able to have access to the original inventor file and possibly try exporting smaller parts of the site and xref only the relevent parts of the site as required for each drawing if that makes sense.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Layer Management From Imported DXF?
Oct 19, 2011I'm importing dxf files from the structural engineering program RAM Structural Systems where my buddy down the hall is modeling beams/columns/ etc in 3d. Importing is not a problem but I would like to know if there is someway to map the layers from his dxf to come in on my layers in cad instead of having to go through and select each object and place in on my desired layer. RAM does use layers for each member. For example :
when he models a beam in RAM its on an SBM layer. Is there a way I can make that SBM layer come in on my S-Beam layer that I have setup in cad?
In short I'm trying to find a way to not have to go through each dxf he emails me and place things on the layers I want them on in cad. I was curious if there was a way I could make cad recognize. SBM layer will be mapped to my layer S-Beam when imported.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Edit Imported DWG Object
Aug 4, 2013I've tried to import a dwg file that was created by someone else but I'm having a hard time editing it. I can scale it and move it and things like that, but if i wish to change the height. I tried scaling it, but it messes up the object. The object I am trying to shorten is a measuring rack on this site [URL].......
I can't change the objects height. Perhaps it's because it's a block reference or something. I've tried editing the block itself, but i have no luck in trying to edit the height. I cant splice it either.
I've attached the file im trying to change the height of.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Updating Imported Part
Dec 17, 2013A customer sent me a .step file. In order to produce the part that I need, I wanted to add some machining to his original part. Os I derived in his part and then added the features that I needed. Just a few tapped holes in one side.
Now, my customer made a few changes to his original part (added some detail) and he has sent me his new .stp file. I did not think it would be any problems if I just overwrote the original stp file with the new one. But, if I do that, when I open my part, Inventor complains that the updated part is part is not usable.
I tried saving the imported file as a .ipt and then bringing that into an assembly and doing the machining there. But, now when I replace the imported file with the updated version, my features fail.
Is there a workflow that will allow me to update the part that is derived into another part?
