AutoCAD 2010 :: DWG Do Not Download Correctly In HTML Pages In Safari
Jul 25, 2012
I am working for a client on a site where they wish to include links to .dwg files for their designers to download. The links I'm creating are simple (using square brackets instead of standard HTML brackets to illustrate):
[a href="/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/filename.dwg"]click here to download a 2D CAD drawing[/a]
The files are simple, 2D CAD drawings saved from AutoCAD 2010 or 2012.
The behavior I expect is the same behavior I might see if I was linking to an executable file or, for example, a .psd file: a dialog box is launched by the browser, prompting the user to save the file or possibly open in an associated piece of software.
The behavior that actually happens (but only in Safari) is that the browser attempts to render the file as a plain-text file, and the gory contents of the file are displayed as a tab in the browser.
I have done some looking around, and I've seen plenty examples of dwg's linked to on websites, and these download just fine, as expected. However, most of these examples that I find are saved in older formats, say 2004 and earlier. So, I tried to save our files as earlier formats, but I still experience the same issue.
Is there some setting I can set or some meta tag in the files I can change so that Safari doesn't think it's a plain-text MIME type? We can just zip the files, but that seems like an unnecessary step that we shouldn't have to do if AutoCAD was saving these files correctly.
I created a webiste from PSD sliced template. The template had User Name and Password section. After exporting for web I can not seem to figure out how to insert a form into the html page generated from PSD temaplte with slices. When I try to insert a form the sliced images on my page get out of place. Is there a way to insert forms into html pages generated from Photoshop sliced templates?
I made a web site with PShop and GOLive back in 2002-2005, I do not have PShop or GOLive anymore, but i wish to edit the path adress of those html pages generated by PShop and GOLive in 2002-2005, all i have is PS Elements10 and it does not recognize them, and none of my other programs will open the HTML pages so that I can edit them,
I would like to change the default filename for the HTML pages produced by Lightroom 3 in the web gallery. Specifically, I would like to remove the string "_large" from the HTML filename, so it corresponds exactly to the image filename.
Specifically, the URL by default is like this: [URL] ....
and I would like it to be like this: [URL] ....
I assume there is some way to make this change using the template editors, but I can't figure it out.
How can I convert drawings on paperspace into PDFs and DWFs with the correct scale? I measured everything on paperspace and it's right; but if I convert them to PDFs and DWFs everything srinks a little and the scale doesn't match at all. What settings or ways to match the scale into what it's suppose to be to convert it to PDFs and DWFs?
I have tried unistalling framework 4 and reinstalling using the standalone installer. I have also used the framework clean up tool with no luck. I have tried to repair the installed framework 4 with no success. I have tried all of this with my antivirus turned off and I have tried to use Microsoft fixit along with running Ccleaner registry fix.643 Error.
Thats pretty much it. While pressing F3 to toggle Osnap, if Ortho is ON it first turns it off and then F3 would toggle Osnap. The same thing happens with F8 if Osnap is ON.
I checked out the CUI and for some reazon it had a lot of different shortcuts to toggle Osnap and Ortho, so I thought just keeping F3 and F8 would make it work, but it does the same thing.
i start in a new position for a new company noticed they have several cuix menu files for blocks such as structural shapes and weld symbols. so i loaded the menus with menuload and map to the directory of the blocks reference in the options files tab, but when i select the menu if has the block mapped to a different drive that does not exist. how can i change it to when i select, for say a w6x9 to map to the correct block on the correct drive instead of mapping it to some s: drive the directory structure is correct but the drive letter is not.
I inserted an image into my AC drawing. I’m doing a drawing in 3D starting from this image, using solids and regions. When the visual style is set to Realistic I can see the image but when I change to X-Ray all I can see is black and white points instead of the image.
See attached file
Funny thing is that yesterday it was working perfectly, meaning I could see the image in X-Ray mode, but today it doesn’t work! I don’t understand.
I have already made a new drawing, check with other images formats, and it doesn’t work
I am having an issue with plotting a drawing that includes an xref. I have also included an attachment as reference.
I am working in AutoCAD 2010; I have a drawing that includes another drawing as an xref. The xref is on layer “0” in model space and my titleblock, annotation and viewports are in paper space (layout tab). I am using color dependent plot styles (.STB). The xref is a 3D model created with basic AutoCAD solids representing steel shapes, there are also some line segments representing the steel centerlines. The viewport is a plan view of the 3D steel model, the view is not clipped. Since the xref contains 3D objects when I print the drawing I don't want the “hidden” lines to show up, I accomplish this by setting the viewport shade plot setting to “HIDDEN”.
Here is the problem:
When I print the drawing the xref’s layers do not print correctly but rather take on the properties of layer “0” which has a plot style of “NORMAL” so everything prints in color and with a default lineweight. I want the xref to print using the xref’s layer properties that are defined in the .STB file. One variable that changes the outcome of the printed drawing is the viewport shade plot setting.
If the viewport shade plot is set to HIDDEN the xref prints using layer “0” properties (undesired) and the3D object lines are hidden (desired). See attached Viewport #1
If the viewport shade plot is set to AS DISPLAYED the xref prints using the xref’s layer properties (desired) but the 3D object lines are not hidden (undesired). See attached Viewport #2
The ONLY difference between the two viewports is the shade plot setting, there are no layer overrides and only the xref objects are affected, the objects in paper space print as expected. This only happens with an xref or block. If I bind the xref into the drawing and explode it so the objects are “live” in the drawing everything works fine. Unfortunately I need it to work correctly with an xref.
If I use a color dependent plot style (.CTB) where the .CTB file controls the color and lineweight I am able to achieve the desired results, unfortuneatly my company is determined to use .STB files
Apparently since the OS 10.7.4 upgrade, Safari will not save a pdf from a google search page. Error message is "cannot export (file name)". Any Mac users know what is going on here? Firefox works fine. I've ;ooked in Safari and Finder prefs but can't find anything that would relate to this. Trying to download some Camera RAW tutorials. Bookmarked them in Safari, and later d/l in Firefox which sends them to Finder> Downloads by default.
I have web pages which worked fine with their colors until perhaps 1-2 year ago [URL]. Then happened a change which is demonstrated as a change in the darkness of the gray image elements in the pages, mostly in Safari which, to my knowledge, can read color profiles. The pages have a basic gray background, originally #9a9a9a, and they contain image elements, such as the title of the image series, and other components, which I liked to be embedded in the coded color. So, initially, in the gray background, the gray background color of the image elements was the same as the coded color: only the text of the image elements popped out in pages. The problem is, as you already have figured out, that the background gray of the image elements is not anymore the same as the browser-coded gray. I've read, for example, this thread [URL]. What I've done is the following: I converted the original file with the AdobeRGB color space to sRGB in PS6. In this conversion, the background gray of an image element (#9a9a9a) changed to another (#9b9b9b). Then I saved this file as a CompuserveGIF which kept the color the same (#9b9b9b), as measured by the Eyedropper tool in PS6. I duplicated the file, put it in the site and looked the result: again Safari shows a clear color difference between the image element (with #9b9b9b) and the coded color (with #9b9b9b). In Firefox, no problem. So, I do not understand why the background color in the image element (#9b9b9b in the gif file, as measured by Eyedropper) shows a well recognizable difference in Safari with the the exactly the same color. Basically, I just liked to know how I need to convert an AdobeRGB file so that a browser's (Safari) gray is the same as the color the image element.
var a = new Audio(); a.src = "xxx.mp3"; //.ogg if IE a.play();
It works on different browsers including IE, firefox and chrome, but have no sound on Safari. I tried Safari 5.1 on PC and on iPod 4.3.3. I tried .wav, .ogg, .mp3.
I use Photoshop X3 to create buttons for a webpage. The buttons are saved as PNGs.This works fine for Firefox, Chrome, IE9. But in IE8 and Safari, the buttons are not displayed, instead IE8 displays a red X.
I tried to open the PNGs in PHP, but I get the error: gd-png: fatal libpng error: Too many IDAT's found in ...image.php...It seems that the PNG exported by Photopaint are not standard-conform! I installed the 2 service packs for X3.
i bought adobe cloud and i started downloading all the software and deleting old version. I didn't know there was a special way to delete adobe application so i just dragged it into a program called app cleaner and it deleted all the files. But it won't let me put cs6 photoshop on my computer because it still thinks i have cs6 photoshop beta. how can i get photoshop back onto my computer.
I'm trying to embed a video into my project and although the initial setup was simple, getting it to play in all browsers is proving to be very difficult. I've read more articles and forum threads than I care to recall, but just can't seem to find the right combination. Safari wil play audio only and IE10 gives me "Error: Unsupported video type or invalid file path".
I've contacted my host provider to ensure that the server is compatible with all video formatts and I've had other people from different locations try to play the video with slightly varied results, but ultimately the video doesn't play for them either. Here is the code I'm using:
I started with this code that I picked up from an online tutorial:
var vid = sym.$("Holder"); vid.html('<video width= "838" height="609" src = "video/tester.mp4" poster = "video/DFC5.jpg" type = "video/mp4" controls ="controls" </video>');
I eventually moved to this in order to attempt to accommodate multiple video formats/browsers:
In my company we use the SSM and label our sheets as follows:
(Sheet Number) - (Sheet Title)
G-1.00 - Summary of Quantites
WM-1.01 - Water Main
etc...
In the border we would like to put page SHEET XX OF YY. The Total count is simple with a custom field however how would I get the XX part to show the sheet number as a number and not G-1.00.
My question is about pdf files. All is ok when my drawing have only one sheet, but my problem occurs when my drawing have two or more sheets. In this case the pdf have only one sheet exported, impossible to export all my sheets (only the page on the screen is exported in pdf). Is it possible to exports all sheet in one time.
(Actually i must go to "Autodesk" -> "Create a copy" -> ".pdf" -> "Option" -> "All sheets" -> "Save" if çi want to get a pdf with all sheets)
When I publish multiple pages with either pdf or printing, it only prints the first layout. I tried to repair/reinstall AutoCAD and the problem still exist.
How do I insert multiple pages from AC2012 LT into PDF?
I'd like to make several drawings * see attachment* , add in the text.....add in some jpgs.....and have ONE document with multiple pages for my customers.
So far I can only seem to make one page at a time. Operator error I am sure.
The drawing I just finished and need to plot is 19"L x 9-1/2"H. The printer I have here only does 8-1/2x11 sheets. How do I plot this drawing on a 1:1 scale so it will print on multiple sheets of 8-1/2x11 to make the single complete drawing? I've tried changing the plot setting but guess I'm over my head.
[URL]The example near the bottom shows an unfolded sheet metal part being exported to DXF and there is an option to change the output format in that example. But I don't know how to get to it from a IPT file that is a standard part.
I started with a IPT file and exported as a DWG.Then I created a Layout with the view that I wanted in DXF format and used Save As, selected DFX and I got three DXF files, Model, Layout_1 and Layout_2.
However, I have no way of knowing what format was used for the DXF output. I want AutoCAD version R12. how to interpret the hyroglyphs in the help pages?
Example:

That page is not useful. It seems to have been written for an earlier version of Inventor. I am still running 2013.
Maybe this is because I have Inventer and I do not have inventor Pro. Is that the problem here? Is this ONLY possible with inventor Pro?
I am test driving LT2000i and currently use AutoSketch.
I do not own a plotter and would like to know if It is possible to "plot tile" a 24 x 36 into 8 pages of 8 1/2 x 11 for printing from a Cannon C3500. If not, do you have any suggestions on how to manipulate paper space to print 8 areas of model space to obtail the same result as "tiling" in AutoSketch?
I was sent a detailed map in dwg format that shows a river in the country. The model has a layer called sheets that has 17 rectangles in many orientations which overlap and cover the data i wish to print. There is a layout tab called "Sheet 2 to 17" which show page 17 with a tempalte when the pointer is over the tab similar to Windows 7 Aero, but if you open the layout the page space is blank. I'm not familiar with the use of a layer to break the drawing into multpile overlapping sheets and my end goal is to print the model as the 17 defined sheets on 11 x 17 paper.
