AutoCAD LT :: Character Spacing

Dec 2, 2012

I am using AC LT 2008.

When inputting Single Line Text or Multiple Line Text I want to reduce the space between characters.

I mean the space to the left and right of the characters.

I do not mean the space between the lines of characters.

In typography this is called kerning.

In MS Word this is known as condensing.

I am using Times New Roman as my font of choice.

Photoshop :: Text Character Spacing

Mar 29, 2013

I'm not sure if it's just me but is Photoshop supposed to have so much space between the characters in text? I've added a screen snippet of what I'm seeing on my computer with it's current settings. I'm not sure if I have something set wrong or not. This is a minor thing but it annoys the heck out of me knowing I don't have complete control over the spacing of characters.

Jul 31, 2013

When I (as I have in Photoshop CS2,3,4,5,5.5 and 6) click in the letting menu and change the letting, it allows me to change it and then when I click enter, it jumps down to a completely different number.  I set it to 200 and hit enter and it drop to 19. I change it to 200 again, it becomes 47. 
 
I am runnning the updated version of CC on windows 7 64-bit.

Photoshop Elements :: Adjust Tracking (character Spacing) Of Text

Oct 15, 2011

PSE doesn't show the user all the text formatting capabilities available in PhotoShop, but this script can alter the tracking (character spacing) of the text on a layer.
 
Here are the steps to use the script:
 
Open Notepad.Copy this text and paste it into Notepad:/*<javascriptresource><name>Character Tracking</name><enableinfo>true</enableinfo><menu>automate</menu><about>Adjust the kerning.</about><category>Typography</category></javascriptresource>*/var targettext = app.activeDocument.activeLayer.textItemtargettext.tracking = 30
 
Use "Save As" with the File Type of "All Files" to save it asCharacter tracking.jsxin the C:Program Files (x86)AdobePhotoshop Elements 10PresetsScriptsdirectory.Keep the .JSX file open in Notepad.Start PSE.  You'll have a new menu item:  File...Automation Tools...Character Tracking.Create a document in PSE with some text on a text layer.With a text layer selected, run the Character Tracking script.To adjust the tracking, simply switch to Notepad and change the numeric value after the equals sign, save the file and re-run it in PSE.  (No need to close and re-open PSE.) 
 
You can use negative values, too -- any number between -1000 and 10000 is OK.
 
For example, here's the original:

Here the tracking was set to -50:
 
And here the value was 300:
 
It works on paragraph text as well.

AutoCAD 2010 :: WCS Is Not Aligned To Paper

Feb 15, 2012

I teach in a large HS and students (and AutoCAD) occasionally stump me.   I have architectural templates with layouts set up for Arch D paper.  We almost always print to either ANSI B or Arch C paper.  I have a routine for students to follow which will properly scale and position the layout on the desired paper size.  Occasionally a student will do something to the layout which causes the WCS to be placed other than at the lower left print corner. 

The result is the corner of the border line is displaced and half the drawing is off the page. When I check the limits the lower left corner has some very large values (don't know how they got changed).  Most of the time we have to create a new layout and copy/paste the border and viewports.

AutoCAD 2010 :: 2012 - Custom Paragraph Spacing

Sep 1, 2012

I just started working for a new employer as a 2012 AUTCAD Tech:  they have only used old school DTEXT for everything (what a pain compared to multi-text "MTEXT").

Problem: I converted several single line Dtext to Mtext (.075 test height) paragraphs but can not achieve the same spacing they have been using (.225) because .025 is not an availalbe increment in the parapgrah & line spacing selection.  Is there a way or a LISP that will allow me to add custom spacing choices to the Line/Paragraph spacing default list?

Then I can upgrade so much and work faster, yet maintain the standard spacing already set via snap grid settings.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Paragraph Line Spacing For Leaders

Apr 16, 2013

The text that we're using for the majority of our notations doesn't look very good at 1.0x scale so I try and adjust the paragraph line spacing to 0.8x as I go. I also know that if I create MTEXT and adjust the paragraph line spacing at the prompt it will "stick". However it doesn't stick for leaders and there's no real way of creating a permanent setting, is there?

Slight inconvenience of adjusting that setting each time I create a leader.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Base Line Spacing Operational

Nov 26, 2012

I normally use AutoCAD Electrical 2012 but my problem is AutoCAD so I thought I would log it here.In ACE there are default profiles for ACE and Vanilla AC.  I use the Vanilla AC for basic CAD drawings.

I like the feature "Base Line Spacing" for dimensions, to state the obvious,BUT  it I do some vertical dims then try to do some horizontal dims  (both in base line spacing) the software wants to stay in vertical BSL.

I can find is to create a standard DIM, delete it, then i can do a selection of horizontal BSL.Is this how it works in AC2012?  Or is it a function of ACE?  There are some other functions in ACE that do not work in standard CAD under the CAD profile.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Within Tables - Line Spacing

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimension Text Grip Edit Reduces Line Spacing?

Jun 27, 2011

If I place a dimension and have text above and below the dimension line (using X), and then grip edit the dimension text to move it for space/clarity on plans, the text above and below the line will mysteriously move closer to the line.  If I have backgrounds applied to the text, which I normally do, the backgrounds will cover the line. Even without the background, it looks odd next to other dimensions that were not grip edited.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Remove Character Formatting For All Of Text Strings At Once?

Oct 30, 2012

I am working with tables that are linked to data from an excel file.After I create a table I dettach it from the excel file. I do not want the excel file to control the table.

I then need to update the text format of all the text in the table. I've noticed that the text strings are still formatted based on how the excel file was formatted.

The only way to remove this is to click on the cell, highlight the text, right click, and then select Remove Character Formatting. Unfortunately I have to do this for each text string.

Is there a way to remove the character formatting for all of the text strings at once?

Even better, is there a way to format the table so that it does not change the text style based on what is in the excel file but instead based on AutoCAD's text styles?

AutoCAD .NET :: Add Block With Center Aligned Attribute

Oct 6, 2011

I want to add a block with a center aligned attribute to drawing file that is not open in the autocad editor; however, the attribute alignment doesn't display when i open the drawing. But when i open the attribute editor i can verify that the alignment is set properly and then after closing the attribute editor window the alignment actually displays correctly even though no changes were made.

I read a number of other posts with the same or similar issue, but i still have been unable to get mine to display right. My code is below. What do I need to do to force the attribute alignment to display correctly?

private void centerAttribute() { var path = @"c: est.dwg"; using (var database = new Database(false, true)) { database.ReadDwgFile(path, FileShare.ReadWrite, false, password: ""); Transaction transaction = null; try { transaction = database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
var previousDatabase = HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase;

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface On Nearly Aligned Points

Sep 12, 2013

I have alignement of wall or embankment. I have existing ground including this corridor river. I have also CSV file with points (x,y,z). On my sketch there is drawn. Points present FDL (flow defence level) maximum level of river in case of huge rain or other things. These are almost aligned. I need to transform it (project) into alignment. I have to create profile of EG, FDL (based on this point) and then create new profile of height of wall or bank. What is the best solution for projecting this points. I tried with grading (distance and grade0%) I tried then with offsetting this feature line based on points and used it as breaklines. Created surface had holes.Even real is worst because alignment is perpendicular in same places to river.

AutoCad 2D :: Variable Driven Arc-aligned Text

May 15, 2013

Is there any way to pull text from a spreadsheet into arc-aligned text? Like if I were trying to make round inspection tags but didn't want to type in the inspection code each time, or if I needed to change something? Is it possible to put a field into the text to refer to a cell location in Excel?

I just started using AutoCAD 2011 (I was previously using AutoCAD 2005) and am having a hard time finding my old controls while learning all the new features for which I got the program.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Aligned Dimension Text Placement

Trying to place this dimension text. Is there any circumstance that someone would want the leader to be the final result of this animation?

Of all the ways to generate a leader (when the correct one to the center of the dim can't be generated), the extremely acute angle version doesn't seem like the best option.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Keep Drawing View Aligned To Workplane?

Jul 31, 2012

I have some models which are based on skeleton modeling and where the actual parts are modeled at the position where they are in the assembly. When the skeleton part is changed the parts will update and their orientation related to the origin planes can change. This is where the problem lies, on the drawings of these parts the views are all skewed after an update.

Is it somehow possible to tell Inventor that all views on a a drawing should stay alligned to a workplane? Because it are all parts and no assemblies I cannot use posreps (and I don't want to use dummy assemblies). I also tried setting a specific edge to be horizontal with the rotate command in the drawing. This works for the base view, but all projected views will still be skewed after an update.
