Three years ago I created a drawing in which I inserted Hyperlinks into the drawing. When I made a PDF from the drawing the Hyperlinks were still there and worked correctly from the PDF. Not sure which version of AutoCAD this was created from. I am now using 2012 and have tried to repeat the process but when I create the PDF the Hyperlinks are not there.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to create links from a webpage to specific spots in a pdf. I can get it to work perfectly if I create the hyperlink destinations in the pdf, using the Acrobat software. However, I was told you can create the hyperlink destinations in InDesign, then export the pdf, which I'd like to do because the InDesign original is going to change a lot, and then I wouldn't have to recreate all the destinations every time it's updated. When I try it, though, I can't get the webpage link to go to the destination, only to the top of the pdf.
I'm in CS3 and Windows.
I have created a viewport on a drawing within a layout tab. When I go into paper space the available scale options are in metric units e.g. 1:500. When selecting the scale that I require that should allow the drawing detail to fit within the viewport it is too large even when the smallest scale available (1:5000) should easily be adequate for the detail to fit within the viewport. The detail within model space has been drawn in millimetres.
I guess that some defaults, scaling options are conflicting with each other.
I recently upgraded from map 2008 to civil 3d 2010. Whenever I open a drawing that was last saved/used in my map 2008 program, it freezes upon opening and tells me there are errors. If I ignore the problem, I can continue to open and work on drawing, but every time I open it up, I get the errors and the freeze. Is there something I can do in civil 3d 2010 that will bypass whatever is freezing it up? I have included a drawing that is freezing up in civil 3d 2009 and/or 2010 that was created with map 08

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created a new drawing template using an iLogic Form and Prompted Entry. What I would like is a Rule that is generated when a user opens a new drawing template. The rule that is created would open up the new iLogic Form I created where various Title Block information is entered (Client Name, Client Address, Date, Drawn By, etc... I know you can manually open the iLogic Form that I created via the iLogic tab, but I would prefer the form open upon opening the new drawing. Once comlpeted, the user than imputs the Prompted Entry values (Drawing Name, Drawing Number, etc...).

I'm having real difficulties getting my drawing borders to work between Inventor and AutoCAD. I am using Product Design Suite 2012.
I have created a drawing border using Inventor, which is the template for any drawings I produce. I often export the Inventor drawings into AutoCAD 2007 dwg's to send to customers. However, it seems all the text goes up the creek after the export...
When I open the exported AutoCAD drawing, first I explode the drawing border. Then, if I scale the border from within AutoCAD, none of the text wants to scale up. - I've attached the border. I've tried several different ways to fix it using text styles, heights (setting to 0) etc and still no luck!
How to fix the text scaling?!
I am having trouble opening a drawing created by other software, I am using the following
(defun c:water ()
(setq acApp (vlax-get-acad-object))
(setq acDocs (vla-get-documents acApp))
(vla-open acDocs "L:/GIS_CAD/CAD NZMG/Water/Water Nov08.dwg")
)
If I try the routine I get ; error: Automation Error. Error Decrypting Data.
If I open the drawing normally (that works) and save as a dxf, then open the dxf and save it again as a dwg the routine works. I use the routine for 5 seperate drawings that get updated every month and would rather have a routine that opens the drawings without the fiddle.
we have on company drawing title block the date created field. . . . but when the file is being transfered and "save" it shows the present day of saving. . . is there any lisp that when used, it will show the original date its created. .?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently updated our CAD Library to dynamic blocks. In the process of updating our drawings, we realized that we could not use BLOCKREPLACE to replace dynamic blocks with another dynamic block (with new name) once the dynamic element has been changed. I realize that this changes the state of the block and anonymous block names are created.
I need a simple solution so that members of my group can easily replace dynamic blocks with new dynamic blocks.
I am trying to create a tube by sweeping a circle along a spline. I read many of the previous discussion threads on the topic but I still have some issues.
I first created my spline and transformed it in a polyline (some people recommended to do it). Then I created the circle. Finally I sweep the circle along the path.
The issues are the following:
1) when I look at the tube using the 2D wireframe mode, I can see that the primitives are not completely regular. In some points there are weird intersections and I don't know how I can fix them.
2) I hoped the tube was solid. However, when I exported (as .IGS) it and see in another program, I realized that it has only two circular caps at the extremities of the tube, but inside it is hollow.
I tried to transform it in solid or mesh or whatever, but it always gives me an error, saying that the object cannot be converted.
I have a drawing with exsisting multileaders in it.
I am trying to apply the match properties to a newly created multileader but it isn't working.
Whenever I insert a block into my drawing from the Tool Palette, Autocad creates a Text Style and Dimension Style,both named Annotative. This happens on any drawing, with any block.
I can purge them after the block has been inserted. They are NOT nested in the blocks. I have tried recreated the tool. Nothing seems to be working.
Eventually after I copy and paste with the clipboard enough times within one drawing, the ability goes away and I can no longer copy and past one item from one drawing to a separate drawing. I need to use the clipboard function because that is the only way of getting an item from one drawing to another.
I have download a clear clipboard function but it doesn't work. Closing CAD and restarting does not reinstate the function.
My Autocad has started a new behavior. When (in Win7) I double-click on a drawing file in Windows Explorer, Autocad opens the drawing file and also starts a new drawing, all in the same session of Autocad. Is there some system variable or Windows variable that controls this?
