AutoCAD Inventor :: Adding Blends Or Fillets To 3D Model?

Dec 6, 2006

When I am adding blends or fillets to a 3D model, sometimes after picking a few edges I will inadvertently select a wrong edge. Can I deselect the edge and resume selecting edges for the fillets or do I have to start over from the beginning?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Solid Loosing Fillets During PDF Export?

Mar 18, 2013

I'm using AutoCAD 2010 32bit on Windows XP with built-in video - so no hardware rendering, etc. I have a situation where a 3D solid that I have created looses its fillets while creating a PDF.

The solid was built using Union, Subtraction, Slicing and Fillet operations. I have attached the DWG and two PDFs - one with fillets, the other without. Both PDFs were created within moments of each other from the same DWG. Notice in the DWG that the solid model has rounded edges (fillets) along most edges, but they are missing in the bad PDF, and show in the good PDF. I create the PDFs using ACAD's Output | Export PDF feature on a single Layout in Paperspace. When the PDF is generating, for about two seconds you see the solid edges loose their fillets, and then sometimes return to normal, but other times the DWG changes and I have to add the fillets again.

BTW: I tried a fresh OS and ACAD install and problem persists.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Solids Only Show Up In 2D Wireframe

Apr 11, 2012

I'm using 2D wireframe as my default view while extruding some solid pipes. Everything appears to work fine, but when I switch to any other shademode eg. 3D wireframe, some of the pipes disappear. In Navisworks they show up as listed objects in the selection tree but cannot be displayed and more imporantly do not get considered in clash detection.

I can't see anything different about the properties of the "hidden" pipes over any others that can be seen.

If I slice the "hidden" solids, then one half or both halves become visible like a normal solid again.

I have hundreds of pipes to model and clash so need to resolve what's happening here. Attached is a small sample file.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Extract Properties From 3D Solids?

Jul 20, 2011

I have noticed that "Data Extraction" does not give you geometry information of a 3D solid such as position X, Y, and Z, and Length, Width, and Height.  This information IS available in "Properties".  Is there a way to extract this info to csv or some other format?

how I can Identify invalid solids without having to select each solid individually.I would think that a lisp routine would be the way to go, but I cannot find what makes a solid invalid as opposed to being valid.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Round Dimensions Up Not To Nearest

Feb 23, 2012

I am looking for a way to get my dimensions to round up instead of to the nearest.

For example... when I have one line that is 11-15/32" and one that is 11-17/32" and I need them to round up to the nearest 1/4". I want it to round up, showing 11-1/2" and 11-3/4" but instead i get 11-1/2" for both.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Round Off Of Value (length) Of Inserted Field

Mar 20, 2012

Round off of the value (length) of an inserted field, I wanted to make a round off for the field value that represents the length of a line but sounds that there is no option to do so.

For example:

the 2568 will be rounded off to be 2570

the 2563 will be rounded off to be 2565

This option is available for the dimension objects and wondering why it not offered for the inserted fields.

Windows 7 (Ultimate 64 bits),
Firefox 20.0,
Kaspersky 2013.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unselecting Fillets

Mar 22, 2012

Is there another way to retract fillets?  I've tried the ctrl, shift, and both at once.  None of those key selections did nothing with my 3D drawing.  Is there something I could do in my settings to adjust this?

AutoCad :: Isometric Drawing And Fillets

Nov 6, 2012

I recently started drawing in cad, and i have a couple problems. At time now i am trying to learn more of isometric drawing and i have couple questions about drawing a particular figure:

21.jpg

So in there i don't know how to draw that "thing" witch i highlighted in red. I don't know at witch angle i should draw it's center(center length should be 50 cm). If I would know that, i could easily draw a isocircle above. So how do i find this "right" angle?

Second question would be about isofillets - i read here in forums that i should do them in isocircles, and i did that and i got good results - it looks very good, but the problem is, that in this drawing, it shows that those isocircles should have a defined radius - R6, R16 and etc, but if i do round corners with isocircles, i dont get that result(in R16 case radius is even way too big). So maybe there is a way to do them "right" and have them defined? I attached that drawing .

AutoCAD Inventor :: Fillets On Complex Shapes

Feb 28, 2013

I have a shape that happens to have many nodes; it was simple to extrude it (inventor saw it as a complete shape) but adding fillets is another story. each tiny segment requires a click to select it. is there any way to simplify this — either through simplifying the path somehow or by selecting the edge in some other manner? 

i saw a thread on the forums about imported 2d vector files with a similar issue. I did import my file but it came from rhino. everything is fine except this one issue. i guess i could go back to rhino but i would prefer not to.

i have attached a small screenshot of one area of my sketch.

AutoCad 3D :: Solid Loosing Fillets During PDF Export

The solid was built using Union, Subtraction, Slicing and Fillet operations. I have attached the DWG and two PDFs - one with fillets, the other without. Both PDFs were created within moments of each other from the same DWG.

When the PDF is generating, for about two seconds you see the solid edges loose their fillets, and then sometimes return to normal, but other times the DWG changes and I have to add the fillets again.

I know about using the Print option, and also 3rd PDF generators but they also fail - plus, I want to use Output because it's more convenient. I like AutoCAD, but I am thinking of dumping it for SolidWorks (which I just evaluated for 30 days). I can't be putting a lot of time into models that loose their fillets. This same issue happened to me about a year ago, and I finally had to re-create the model from scratch to solve. It's ridiculous that this doesn't work, it's kinda fundamental.

BTW: I tried a fresh OS and ACAD install and the problem persists.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Sectioning And Dimensioning Fillets

Jun 3, 2013

I would like to place arrowheads on the vertical sectioning lines (for the hatched view on the right), as well as on the horizontal line (for the bottom view), but I couldn't succeed in doing this. So, I left it just as line without arrowheads. Also, I would like to know if there are options for dimensioning fillets, as the one in my drawing comes with round symbol of portion of circle upon which the arrowhead touch (instead of on the fillet itself) - see R.12 and R.50.

Paint.NET :: Put Round Text Into Blank Round Space?

Apr 10, 2011

I have gotten to a point where I have the round text,, I have a seal with a blank space.. I would like to put the round text into the blank space,, but when I try, and no matter how I try,, the text is a white square with round text on it when I try to place it in the circle.

The other thought that came to me,, what if ..(the text circle size was a guess) the text does not fit.. how do I expand or collape it? I know I have in the pass while playing with round text.. gone back to that effect and changed angles, start points etc.. is that the only way?

I have attached what I have so far. ( I tried to attach the Paint.net file but I guess you can't, so these are the two I am working on,, as layers in Paint.net)

The name of my file is OFFSET MENU. I'm running 2012 version and I have finally gotten almost everything setup except for this.
