AutoCAD LT :: Array 2012 No Contextual Ribbon Menu?

Jun 1, 2012

new Array command in 2012...

On a clean install without importing the users settings, the ribbon changes to to the array menu when the command is selected but if we import settings from a previous release it doesnt work.

All the other contextual menus like text editor and hatch menus work fine, seems to be just Array (I guess because its the only new one?)

Is there a way to get it working? I checked CUI and it appears under both Tabs and contextual Tab States, the settings seem the same as the others that are working?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Hatch Contextual Tab Missing?

Apr 6, 2010

I just upgraded our office from 2010 (architecture package) to 2011 and I was very excited to use the new hatch improvements, but whenever I try to use the hatch command I don't get the contextual tab. I tried playing around with HPDLGMODE, and I can get the old style dialog box, but I was really looking forward to having all that on the ribbon. I looked in the CUI and I found the hatch creation one, and it's empty. I also noticed that many other contextual tabs are empty. I think maybe it's because of some setting I had it import from my previous release maybe?

We have multiple seats where I work (I'm in charge of everything computer related) and mine is the only one where this happens. Everyone one else that I set up has the contextual tab.

Should I just reinstall it without pulling in my settings and re-build my ribbon the way I had it?

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Get The Old Array Style Back

Jun 2, 2011

My company just got all new computers and upgraded out AutoCAD to 2012 from 2009. And every single drafter has complained to me that the new Array is terrible. Basically, it seems to take 10 times as long to set up and array as it used to and now it's linking all of the objects together as a group which is absolutely terrible for what we do especially when we are making 4 or 5 columns or hundreds of objects. I cant find any classic or legacy array commands.

This really needs to be put back in because right now everyone is asking us to put AutoCAD 2009 back on the computers, and the whole reason we bought new PCs is because they couldn't run anything after 2009 without being too slow to be productive.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Point Array On A Curve

Apr 20, 2013

AutoCAD 2010 :: Polar Array Function

Jul 2, 2013

I have drawn a bar counter in 3d which has a top rectangular shape with curved corners. The front of the bar has 100mm wide wooden fascia panels and they need to follow the line of the bar. I am using the Polar Array function which works great except I cant seem to get the panels to follow the curves/arcs around the corners, but they sit neatly on all the straight edges of the bar. So in other words the panels are straight and lined up on the straight parts of the bar but the panels stay at 90 degrees instead of following the curved areas of the bar.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Edit Array With Parameters Manager

Oct 23, 2012

I want to make a grid that is adjustable by editing parameters. I want to change the size of the blocks. And i want to change the number of blocks in the x-direction and y-direction.

I have created a square with a width of 50mm and a height of 20mm. I have created 2 parameters called width and height. Next I added dimensions to the square and i call those dimensions width and height. Now I can adjust the width and height of the square by editing the parameters.

Next I want to copy this square in the x- and y-direction so that you get a grid. The number of copies in x-direction I call number-x. The same in the y-direction.

I then link the number-x and number-y to 2 parameters that i have named number-x and number-y.

The distance between the squares has to be the same as the size of the first square. Only then you get a grid. So i created parameters for this to. I call them width2 and height2.

Now I can adjust the size of the grid by editing these parameters. When i change number-x or number the grid becomes larger. But when i want to change the size of the initial square, it doesn't work. I think because of the fact that the first square has become a part of an array.

How to make a grid that is adjustable nu editing parameters in the parameters manager?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Do Solid / Subtract With Array Items

Sep 27, 2011

If you have a housing with say, 12 cylinders in the flange which are to be cut out of the housing to become the 12 bolt-holes.  If you positioned your cylinders using polar array, are you supposed to be able to use the command solid/substract?  I can't as it won't pick the array parts to cut.  I had to resort to rotating/copy all the cylinders around the flange and then it works great. Any way to do holes through a solid...

AutoCad 2D :: Use Path Array Feature On 2013 To Array Stairs

Sep 19, 2012

I'm trying to use the PATH array feature on 2013 to array stairs, and I can't get the array to be 100% accurate. It seems like CAD rounds the decimal to the nearest 3/4" which could be causing the problem.

I set my run to 10.5" and rise to 7.25", array along the angle of the stringer, and there's always a small overlap on the stairs. The "distance between" should be 1'-209/256" and CAD rounds it to 1'-3/4" which is where I believe the error is. Is there any way to fix this or array this correctly? Otherwise...back to the COPY method I suppose.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Create Array (of Circles) That Stretch To Length Of Bar Spanning Left To Right

Aug 16, 2012

Okay, I'm new to associative arrays, I'm attaching a drawing so you can see what I'm trying to accomplish with this.  I'm doing an elevation view of a slab that has a cross section of the rebar.  I've shown one of the bars spanning from left to right, represented by a rectangle, and the cross section of the bars running front to back represented by circles. You can see what I'm trying to show here.  In the drawing I've attached, the top three sketches are examples of how this would look if it were working correctly.

What I'm trying to do is create an array (of circles) that will stretch to the length of the bar spanning left to right.  I want the quantity of items in the array to automatically change based on the length of the bar and the spacing of items, so if there is 6" of spacing between the items instead of 12" it will automatically add twice the amount of items to fill in that space.  I've been trying to use a path array, and it isn't working the way I want.  I'm not familiar with rectangular arrays, so not sure what to do there either.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Hatch Contextual Tab

Sep 16, 2011

I am using AutoCAD Architecture 2012. While using the hatch command, the contextual tab pulled up in the ribbon as expected. But when I went to pick an internal point AutoCAD froze. After closing ACAD and trying to open the drawing again it asked me to recover the drawing because of errors. After recovering the drawing the ribbon still had the contextual hatch tab in it although if you try and hatch ACAD will freeze again.

So as it sits now, no matter how many times you open or close the drawing the contextual hatch tab will not go away and is not functional. If you try and hatch the drawing crashes. I have duplicated the problem on multiple computers so I know its not a problem with my computer as much as it is a problem with this particular drawing.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Contextual Tab State To OFF?

Mar 23, 2011

Is there any way to turn off the Contextual tab state. I tried changing a lot of them in the CUI Ribbon Properties from Full to Merged but now when I select anything the program slows down to a crawl. My reason is that its really not that convenient for ACA to keep switching back and forth just because I select an object. I use a lot of hot key’s but there are many commands on the Home Ribbon tab that I use 99 percent of the time at selection and I find it a royal pain in the ars to keep switching it back to get to the command I need. I’m using 2011 ACA. OS is Windows 7. 64 bit and 10 GB of Ram

AutoCad :: DWT Edit From Contextual Explorer Menu

Jul 30, 2012

I would like to edit the dwt file extension in explorer to add an option in the contextual menu' to open it in acad for editing it. At the moment I can only open it, but it actually opens a copy.So I would like two options:

OPEN a copy (default behaviour)
EDIT the template (optional)

I hate the need to open a copy and then go through all the process of "save a copy as dwt".I have win7 - LibreOffice has similar options for their templates (new/open).

AutoCAD Architecture :: How To Turn Off Contextual Ribbon Tabs

Nov 22, 2013

I'm a right clicker.  Contextual ribbon tabs pop up every time I touch an object. They require additional clicks and mouse movements. I don't want them. How can I stop them? I just want the default ribbon.  I was able to do this on a previous version but now I forget how. Version upgrades do not bode well for old people.

However, accessing a hatch pattern after using the "Hatch" command from the command does seem to work.

Illustrator :: Contextual Menus In AI CS6 Always Flyout To Right

Jun 4, 2013

So all of a sudden my contextual menus in AI CS6 are acting weird. They always "flyout" to the right (or the direction of the arrow in the main menu), but now some of them are opening to the left. This is really annoying when you are trying to move quickly and are expecting that menu to flyout to the right. I have attached two screenshots showing the issue.
 
FYI. Illustrator CS 6 (Creative Cloud version) running on Windows 8

AutoDesk Smoke :: Timeline Contextual Menu

Oct 8, 2012

With PR4 the right click contextual menu for the timeline seems to have been re-arranged to accomodate new features.

As a result, when you right-click a timeline element to remove all effects you have to move your pointer up through a list of about 15 items to reach the "Remove Effect" command.

There also appears not to be an assignable keyboard shortcut to remove all effects from a selected timeline element. (apart from Option+Clicking on the effect in the effect bar which just removes a single item).

Would it not make sense to have this remove effect command at the bottom so that it appears right near your pointer when you activate the menu?A keyboard shortcut binding would be ideal as I realise the contextual menus are probably in a state of constant change at the moment.
