AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Shape File

Jul 25, 2012

How to compile a "master" .shp file that would include the coding for all of my shape files for custom linetypes. I did this years ago for a specific set of linetypes but I can not remember how I did it.

I know ACAD has the linetype.shp file that includes coding for ACAD supplied custom linetypes.

I think I remember inserting all of the shapes into a drawing and somehow compiling the *.shp file. Is that how it is done?

AutoCad :: How To Completely Delete Table Data Link

Jun 2, 2010

Using AutoCAD 2010 LT with service pack 1 and 2

I created a link to an Excel file to create a table. Before I ETransmit the AutoCAD file (along with many other files) I want to remove the link so that the table is embedded with no need for the external file. When I have somebody who doesn't have the linked file on their machine open the file they get a "missing external file" message" despite the fact that I ran the detach data link command and have purge selected in the ETransmit setup. The table shows up with the data, but I want to eliminate the nag pop up about the missing file. I know you can click the ignore button, but I don't want our customer to have to bother with it.

Any way to save a list of files for ETransmit like you do in a .dsd file for batch plotting?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Keeps Crashing Before It Loads Completely

Jan 23, 2012

I first installed 2012, then I realized that my class will be using 2011.  I downloaded 2011, and kept my 2012, and it didn't seem like there would be any issues.  So I open my 2011 and it keeps crashing before it loads completely.  There are no error messages or anything ...2012 works just fine.   I tried doing a repair, and a reinstall.

AutoCAD LT :: 2010 Completely Deleting Files Without Warning?

Aug 15, 2012

I've been having a problem with my AutoCAD LT 2010 completely deleting files after I have saved them and closed them. There is no file in the recovery manager, no back up file, nothing. It has happened three times without warning and it always happens to files I've been working on for awhile and have opened and closed multiple times. Is there any way to recover these files and how do I keep it from happening again?

AutoCAD 2010 :: The Standard Scale List Is Missing Completely

Sep 6, 2012

I cannot find the Standard Scale list anywhere in my 2010 version of AutoCAD. Only the Annotative Scale list is visible and usable. Note: it's not that certain scale values are missing, it's that the entire Standard Scale function is no where to be found!

I need to be able to change the scale of a viewport, but the Standard Scale list is not included as an option in the Properties Dialog box, nor is it in any of the other suggested places where it should be. I've used the Standard Scale list many times before in previous versions of CAD and from everything I can tell 2010 should have it.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Non-Repeating Linetype

May 17, 2013

Is it possible to creat a linetype that doesn't repeat.

What I'm after is a line consisting of:

Long Line
Space
Short Line (roughly 1/3 length of long line)
Space
Long Line
( ______  __  ______ )

But that is all I want to see, regardless of the distance between the start and end points. I use this a lot for laying out joists.

I know I could make a dynamic block of it, but that would mean streaching every line between the two points.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Set Psltscale Per Linetype

May 16, 2012

I am wanting a soultion to a problem I am having when trying to have a combination of linetypes I either want psltscaled or not in a view port.

I.e. I want services linetypes to use psltscale = 1 and I want my linemarking linetypes to use a psltscale = 0, as I need the linemarking linetypes to show in the viewport at the original size they were created at but not the services linetypes as they look horrible.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Changes On Plot

Feb 4, 2013

I have an file where the linetype of a line will modify on print. The linetype will only 'move' when the endpoint of the line is outside the viewport.

I have attached a pdf to show what is happening along with the drawing file.

Another interesting thing is that when I change thickness of the linetype, it also moves.

I have tried recreating the polyline, reversing the polyline direction, auditing the drawing, but nothing.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Scales Are Inconsistent?

Mar 26, 2012

Trying to set a Phantom line as the property line and also use dashed lines (ACAD_ISO03w100)

I can mess with the ltscale and make it so one or the other reads properly, but never both. The Phantom displays correctly at ltscale: 1, the dashed lines display when ltscale is .1 they are on different layers

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Scales And Display?

Aug 12, 2013

How do I set up a dwt so that linetypes appear the same no matter what the scale of the viewport.  I tried AutoCad help but the recommended fix if I am reading it correctly is psltscale set to 1.  That didnt work.  We normally set our ltscale to 0.5.  Should the scale of linetypes be controlled by the scale of the viewport?  Isnt the scale of the viewport supposed to be multiplied by the ltscale so that the linetypes always appear the same no matter what the veiwport scale?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Hot Fix - System Completely Shuts Down On Opening File

Jul 16, 2013

Five minutes ago I installed the latest hot fix. Now, AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014 won't work at all. As soon as I open the program and then try to open a file the system completely shuts down. Everything was working fine until two days ago. Then it wouldn't open the files and said to type in the file name on the command line. When I would do this, it always said file could not be located. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate, have an nVidea GTX 570 card, and an AMD Phenom II CPU. I'm hoping I don't have to uninstall and reinstall again.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Scale Not Compatible Between Two Drawings

Oct 5, 2012

I work very closely with a customer, and have been asked to implement their drafting standards for a dwg file they received from another vendor.  I have attached two drawings, 1 (their vendor's) and 2 (mine, in progress).  When opened, I notice the linetype scale *appears* different between the drawings (note the differences within "LINE LEGEND" section of both drawings).  It *appears* as though Drawing 2 has double the linetype scale of Drawing 1.    

I realize that within Drawing 2 I could set the LTSCALE variable to 0.5, but that seems like a work-around and may cause problems with other aspects of the customer's drafting standards in the future.   

I've already confirmed that both drawings have the same values for LTSCALE, PSLTSCALE, MSLTSCALE, CELTSCALE.  I've also already confirmed that, for the "PACKAGED EQUIPMENT" entry with the legend, the properties dialog box shows the exact same values for all fields.  Lastly, (trying [URL] .....) I re-loaded the linetype for PHANTOM2.

I'd like to have them both appear the same, if possible.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Where Do Plot Styles Get Linetype Definition

Feb 16, 2012

I'm trying to set the plot styles to use specific linetypes for given colors. The theory is that using adaptive linetypes, then lines that are color 50 for example will always display dashed regardless of the length. This seems to work great, except that I'm not happy with the linetype scale (dashes plot too long). Obviously changing linetypescale does not work because adaptive is turned on. So the only solution I could think of was to change the actual linetype definition, but the acad.lin file does not seem to be related to the linetypes shown in the CTB editor (or is it?). How to change the linetype definitions that are linked to the ctb style?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Custom Linetype With Solid Circles

Jul 24, 2013

I am trying to create a custom linetype with solid circles at a specified distance along the custom linetype (see attachment). I have tried using a shape, the special Wingding character but cannot get the result I want. I've tried the hatching method, again with no luck. I've went through the discussion groups, online content, etc. but cannot get it to generate the line the way I want. I see a few people that have been successful but I cannot get it to work.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Is Not Scaling Based On Annotative Scale

Oct 17, 2012

I have a drawing (attached) with the following settings: LTSCALE = 1, MSLTSCALE = 1, PSLTSCALE = 1.For some reason the linetype is not scaling based on the annotative scale. It will update correctly if I change the LTSCALE but for some reason it wants to ignore the MS and PSLTSCALE variables.

As a note, the drawing was converted from a Microstation drawing and the linetype is a converted Microstation linetype.Is there something in the linetype that is doing this.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Control Linetype Scaling - MSLTSCALE / PSLTSCALE

Oct 19, 2012

I think the MSLTSCALE / PSLTSCALE / annotation scales are fantastic to use when showing the details / plan at different scales (1:100 / 1:50 / 1:1) without having to use LTS to show different scales.  I am using AutoCAD 2011.However, I noticed one snag. In the old Autocad before the MSLTSCALE was introduced, I used a shape linetype - a sino shape which I created for insulation in the wall cavity as well for curtain in the interior plan layout (with MSLTSCALE set at 0 and LTS set at scale factor at 1 and use paperspace scaling at desired scale.

When MSLTSCALE / PSLTSCALE are set at 1, the sino linetype will of course changed accordingly to different scale .I prefer to keep the MSLTSCALE / PSLTSCALE at the default 1 with LTS at  scale factor 1 as I want the dashed linetypes to updated accordingly to the scale. At the same time I don't want to have the sino linetype changed (keeping the sino linetype at constant 100mm width). Is there a way to control one linetype at MSLTSCALE = 0 and keep the rest of the linetypes at MSLTSCALE = 1.

I don't think it is possible as MSLTSCALE is for general setup. Instead I would have to forgo using the sino lintype and used a block instead. But a way to control an individual linetype scaling.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Automatic Linetype Scale Update In Viewport?
