AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Clip Circular Viewport To Existing Circle

Feb 13, 2013

As often done in mechanical drawings, a circle is drawn around a detail in the main drawing, and the detail is displayed somewhere else on the drawing on a larger scale.

My detail is the small rectangle in the upper right corner of the larger rectangle. I have also drawn a dash-dot-dot circle object around that corner to designate the detail-area.

In layout 1 the top left viewport displays the "whole" drawing. I also created a circular viewport to display the detail on a larger scale.

In the circular viewport, I used zoom-to-object (and selected the dash-dot-dot circle). The result is visible :both circles (object & viewport) are still visible, and they are not concentric too.

I thought the zoom command would have zoomed until both circles overlapped eachother and were concentric...

AutoCad :: Modify Existing Viewport In Macro Or In Command Line?

Jun 4, 2013

Can I modify an existing viewport in a macro or in the command line?

Using a macro, I want to modify (specifically delete) the viewport from a layout tab after chspace from model space.

I have LT so no LISP. qselect works but cannot be put into a macro.

If I "select all" on a layout tab in paperspace ACAD says 1 of the objects selected is the viewport so I know autocad recognizes the viewport as a different kind of object.

Every time that I open a new drawing which has clipped XRefs, the X clip frame is set to the number 2, and I set it back to number "0", but then when I finish that drawing and open another drawing,  then the new drawing reverts back to X clip frame 2.

How or where I can change the setting to the default is always "0"?

AutoCAD 2010 :: 3D CLIP Displays Back Faces

Mar 22, 2013

I use the 3DCLIP command a lot in my work.

What is really disappointing is that whenever a solid (or xref or block) is sectioned this way, it shows a back faces of that object. It makes the view messy and confusing, and then I have to use whiteout all over my paper space to make the drawing readable.

See attached PDF.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Draw A Circle With Diameter Of 1.24E -10m

Oct 1, 2012

What is the smallest object I can draw and "SEE" in AutoCAD? I was hoping to prove a point in my introductiory AutoCAD class, but it appears I have been lying!! I tried to draw a cirlce with a diameter of 1.24E-10m. The dot shows up, but I cannot zoom to it. I tried using an enormous zoom scale, but did not have any luck. I am almost positive my instructor introduced the capabilites of AutoCAD by drawing a full scale helium atom, and that was release 14. Is this still possible? Obviously the atom can be drawn, but what are the zoom limitations?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Viewport Changes To Top View

Dec 14, 2012

I have a problem with one specific drawing where I have created a right viewport; however, if I double click in the port to enter model space, the viewport automatically changes to a top view. If the viewport is locked, no change to the view. This problem only exhibits itself in one drawing so it must be some setting that is drawing specific.

AutoCad 2D :: Viewport Scaling In Map 3D 2010

Nov 9, 2011

We have recently been upgraded to Autodesk Map 3D where I work which when we first got it was a big improvement from what we were running. When I first started using the programme I found the lovely little box in the bottom right hand corner where you can change the view scale.

This allowed me, when in paper space, to double click in a viewport then click the drop down arrow next to the Viewscale box, select custom and then type in the scale I wanted (i.e. if 1:200 I typed 200 then hit ok).

However all of a sudden I am no longer able to do this. When I press ok, nothing changes. There are no error messages or any message. It appears to disregard the command. There is also a closed padlock next to this which when hovered over gives the discription "click to link/unlink AutoCAD Map 3D stylisation while zooming". I am unable to unlock this by clicking on it, the padlock seems protected almost so I am wondering if this is my problem?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Updating An Existing Table

Mar 24, 2012

I'm attempting to create a table within autocad that I can update as I add new things to my drawing. 

I have a ton of dblocks that carry attributes with them, and I want to be able to have the table in autocad populate with the information from each insertion. 

The table in autocad will be linked to an excel spreadsheet that should also be updated (either as a separate action or automatically... not sure what would be better). 

The table in excel will go through a system of formula that will divide it up into useable groups for me. How do I update a table within Autocad, instead of having to create a new table every time I want to add data to the extraction information?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Doubleclick In A Viewport To Edit

May 23, 2013

I'm working on a new computer and some of the ACAD settings are different.. When I am in paperspace, I am used to just double-clicking in a viewport to work in modelspace..

Whether the viewport is locked or not, I am used to being able to zoom in and out to scale, or just work there and the viewport stays stationary.

There is some setting that is causing the viewport to "zoom out" every time I double click in the viewport. I have to then lock it which means that I can't change the zoom-to-scale factor.. It's also a pain in the neck.

Also, when I have multiple viewports open that are not locked, they all "zoom out" also  when I double-click in one..

Any knowledge of some setvar to fix?
