AutoCAD 2010 :: Using Fields In Layouts?
Jul 16, 2012When I add an object field in paperspace to report on the scale of a viewport in the layout, as I return to that layout and zoom in or out the viewport displays as hot in MS (tab reports as PS) and leaves the MS information of my previous visit embeded on the layouts neutral background and the "new" zoomed MS information is added to modelspace. The background objects cannot be selected or deleted but if I go to the block editor screen -choosing any block for my selection, when I close the block edit and return to the layout, the objects are cleared. I have installed service pack #1 for v12 and I lso have installed V13. I didn't notice this problem prior to the service pack or usin v13. I have an Intel i7 processor, 64 bit.

Jun 7, 2012I have been trying to figure out how to copy a Layout from one DWG to another. I know there are several threads about this, and I have tried the methods they reccomend, but I am having an unusual problem.
I have been trying to open a Layout by using the "from Template" option for creating a new Layout, then opening the DWG containing the desired Layout. It works, but everything drawn in model space ends up compressed into the lower left corner and there is nothing in model space. So, the paper space information from the Layout is being imported, but the drawing info is getting mixed up somehow.
I have tried using the Design Center with identical results.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Rotating Views / Layouts
Sep 14, 2012DView commands. We're using layout drawings of sites that are aligned with True North.
We've been using DView to rotate site layouts within model space in order to to align the layout better within the window and set up icons as such. And we have multiple Sheets set up with different information being displayed (ie different layers turned off). But when we go to the sheets, the Paper Space view still shows it's Original Orientation.
What I'd like to know is there a simple way to set the various different layouts to the same as Model Space, Without having to manually DView each Viewport as well?
AutoCAD 2010 :: Layouts - Creating Viewports
Jan 4, 2013I am trying to organize my drawing in model into different viewports for printing purposes. However, in Layout # 1, once I delete an item it also deletes the item in model space. In Layout # 2, can't edit, select, highlight or anything ( I am in Layer 0). How can I fix that ? Basically, I want to create several layouts, each layout will contain a certain section of my drawing in model space then. I am not "layout savvy", trying to get hang of it.

When I say this, I mean that I want there to be a button, a small msg to type into command line, or any general quick shortcut, to create a new Layout based on a specific template layout that is located on my server. There will be multiple template layouts that the user has the option to choose from when creating a new one, with each layout contianing an xref title block, and a particular size . Also, I would like these to avaiable everytime I open autoCAD, regardless of the current drawing being worked on.
I've looked at Macros and Sheet Sets, but I was wondering if there was an optium way to do something like this? I realize its a failry begginger problem but I am still a begginer at autocad.

Aug 31, 2012I know I can use the expresion "$(getvar,ctab)" to reference the current layout tab name but is there a way to reference say the layout in previous or next tab in reference to the current tab. I am doing some plan and profile drawings which contain match lines I would like to have the match line text automated. For example if I'm on layout called PP02 there would be two match lines in the drawing one would read MATCH LINE PP01 and the other would read MATCH LINE PP03 I would like to automate this so the PP01 of PP02 is referencing the previous or next tab.

Aug 8, 2013Lisp that can create layouts (using a dwt--I would code in the file path to my dwt) reading data from a csv file??? I would create the drawings ahead of time, all I would need is to run the lisp and it would create all the layouts in those dwgs and name them according to the csv.
The csv file contains the drawing names in column A and the layout names in column B. So, what I want to do is create "n" number of layouts in specific dwgs, using the cell data it reads from column A--which are the drawing names, and then rename all those layouts with the cell data from B--note it would not create duplicate (existing) tabs. This way I can re-run it later to add new layouts to the drawings as needed.
The reason is that I work on projects with several hundred layouts--thus the need to create layouts more easily across as many drawings as necessary. Instead of renaming/deleting a ton of layouts; it would be easier to start with a minimal template(s) and have the lisp create the exact number of layouts we need instead of going back and making a ton of edits. Since the csv is created at the beginning of the project, any changes later (adding layouts), can easily be done by running the lisp again.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Switching Between layouts / Saving DWG

I wish I could tell you it started right after I But I just recently started working with the larger files. So this could have been an issue from the time I bough the machine - 18 months ago.
it's either an issue with my graphics card or processor. I would like others to comment on their opinions on adjust my set-up to be more efficient

AutoCAD 2010 :: Same Layouts In One Drawing But Slow Switching To One Of Them
Dec 6, 2013i have a test drawing attached with layout 1 and layout 2.
from model to layout 1 takes 2-3 seconds on my crappy computer, from model to layout 2 takes 8-10 seconds on the same crappy computer.
this sample i attached has a xref binded. which result is the same 3 and 8 seconds respectively.
you may think this is not a big deal. but layout 1 will take 10 seconds to to switch to if you have 5 xref while layout 2 will take a minute.
i did my research and haven't find the difference in variables between the two paperspace layouts.
tried all the variables made no difference:
psltscale, msltscale, celtscale, savefidelity, etc.
also set both viewoprts to undefined same thing.
the only difference is "1" is created from a blank autocad template by selecting "metric - no template", and "2" is imported from a civil 3d dwg after done a plan/profile production and that thing created that layout.
is there a tool to compare all variables between 2 layouts and find the differences? i am certain the problem lie within system variables.

Aug 28, 2012 When drafting either in model space or paperspace, eventually either the command line disappears completely "OR" the command line area increases and prevents me from seeing the tab sheets for accessing paperspace "OR" the mouse arrow gets stuck outside of the drawing area. This is the most non-productive program here after all these years (the worst version ever)
I either have to do one of the following, in order, hopefully to achieve being able to continue to draft;
1. double click the 2D Wireframe in the upper LH corner of the drawing plane.
2. envoke "Task Manager" but then cancel.
3. turn off the Autocad program and start over.

I tried this in both 2013 and 2012 to see if maybe AutoDesk broke it, but it doesn't work in either one. This is easily reproducible for me, a file shouldn't be necessary. Just open up (or create) a multi sheet drawing. Go to edit sheet on one or two of them and check the "exclude form count" box. Now create a new iLogic rule and put the following line into it:
MsgBox("This is the number of sheets in the drawing: " & ThisDoc.Document.Sheets.Count, VBOkOnly, "Number of Sheets")
AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Create A Macro For Change The Plot Styles In Hundreds Layouts?
Oct 4, 2012I have (unfortunately) the necessity to modify into some files (which are used as models) the print style preset.

Each layout set default printing parameters, so as "Laser b/n.pc3," as the paper size "A4" scale "Scale to Fit", and plot style "Schemi.ctb", etc. ..
Is there a way to create a macro (a field unknown to me) or something similar, to automatically change in all the default layout, for example, the printer "Colori.pc3" and the print style in "Schemi_colori.ctb "?
