How to get the individual polyline length of the entire drawing as per the name of the line written against him in the excel sheet. That would prepare the Bar bending schedule quickly.
I want to export the length of each polyline individuality & simultaneously in different -2 columns/row. How to prepare the Bar bending schedule. I am appending the drawing .
Is there a way, when you are drawing a polyline, to have the tooltip box show the cumulative length of the polyline, rather than the length of the current segment being drawn?
In the past, if I needed to increase a polyline's length I would grap a grip and give it a pull, watching the dynamic input (I think) box for the length that the polyline was changing to. One day, I "noticed" that if I grabbed the grip, extended it past the original location, and then typed in what I wanted to add to the length of the polyline and hit "Enter", it would extend the line that amount. In new drawings that I have started since then, I cannot do this. Now, if I draw a 4" polyline, then grab the right hand grip, extend it a bit past the original point and type in 1, it shortens the line to 1" as opposed to extending it to a new length of 5". What switch I have thrown or may throw to retrieve this capability?
I have an existing polyline of approximately 5'. When I choose PEDIT where do I go from there to make the plolyline exactly 12'8"? I'm in architectural mode. Ooops, I forgot to say this is in DraftSight, which should be similar to AutoCAD.
well i have a homework for the exams and i have no time,The question is, how i can measure the exact length of an arc (or a polyline) ? See the pic. ghrrhhr.JPG
I have a an angular polyline (not horizontal or vertical). I want to equally divide the polyline with a specified length and get all separation co-ordinates at each interval. The line remains as polyline, I need to get only the co-ordinates of all the possible divisions for a given length.
I'm using AutoCAD Mechanical 2010 and received a .DXF file that contains 'solid' objects. Unfortunately the next tool in my workflow doesn't understand 'solids' only polylines (and a few other basic shapes like circles, lines, etc). Is there some way to convert the object in AutoCAD?
I tried the 'boundary' command but when it asks to 'Pick Points' and I click inside the solid, it always gives the error 'Valid hatch boundary not found'.
If it is possible to set a fixed length to a "Hose" hanging from one point to another? So that when hang-off point's are adjusted (any direction) the hose act pursuant to the fixed length.
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.
Is there a way to show the last number of the dimension length as 5 or 0?I want to show the unit in mm with precision (decimal places) equal zero such that the and to force the last number as 5 or zero
For example, I need to display the 7554 mm as 7555 and the 7558mm as 7560.
I must have changed a setting and now I cannot figure out what I did.
On AutoCad at school, when drawing a line, there is a light blue dialogue box that would pop up above the cursor telling you the length of the line before you set it. (not the coordinates).
This is not showing up on the educational version of AutoCad I am running at home.
I created a polyline and I cannot, for the life of me, remember the command to make it a 3D line, aka: pipe. I need to make a 4" pipe follow a line I drew.
How to automatically set the corner bend radius of a sweep along a 3D polyline?
The attached image shows what I did in a different program, but need to repeat with AC. The swept 3D object is moved off its path in the attached image.
I can not get certain linetypes to start with the same dash length, see attached. The linetype will start with a longer dash then the stated length, depending on the length of the pline segment. Is there a way to fix this?
Here is the code for one of the linetypes highlighted:
I've had a problem for a while now trying to extrude a 3d polyline into a 3d solid. The polyline is on different planes which is one cause of why it won't work. Instead of extruding into a solid it only does the sides making it a mesh rather than a solid. If its on one plane I know it will work.
Any command or lisp that will do new pollyline between two polyline on 1/3 or 1/4 space between them.
I need something that would be faster, use measure on pollilines then i draw between horizontall polylines on verteks or point new pollyline and ther divide it on 4 or 3 parts.
I am some trouble working with 3dface. I want convert 3dface to polyline but in some cases I faces with problem that a 3dface don't convert surface or solid.
