I have a problem(ACAD 2012) with making a label of some point on 3 D model. I can imagine that the label should be viewable when the model is being rotated I have also Autodesk mechanical 2012
View 2 RepliesI've created my drawing but now I need to select certain objects within the drawing & label them as a certain layer.
View 3 Replies View RelatedLet's say you created some Label Styles, and want those Label Styles to be available in another existing drawing.
Do you have to insert the drawing (which has the desired Styles) into the existing dwg? I tried DesignCenter, but it does not seem to have the ability to import Label Styles or Point Label Styles.

Is it possible to link / reference data from other drawings via labels? For instance, if I have a pipe network from a utility file and reference to a grading file. Could I add labels in that grading file that are from the utility drawing?
I want the pipe diameter minus the surface and maybe list an area of a parcel in one label?So I guess if you can take parts of the Civil 3D objects and tie that back to a general label type.
I'm looking for samples of the above. To be used in working with Sheet Set Manager tab-to automate Sheet Set organization and view placement.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the Sheet Set Manager, in the Sheet List tab, if you click on the project name and Righ-Click and select Properties, you can see the file to be used as the Label Block for Views. It appears that there can be only one block chosen.
I would like on our Enlarged Plan drawings to use another block.I made a subset for these Enlarged Plans, but Right-Clicking on it does not offer a place to specify a different block.
Is there anyway to have a different block for a subset of drawing?
I am finally trying to take advantage of the "fields" in autocad. I created a section label block which has the scale of the detail ( which I have to change manually). I want the scale to change with the viewport scale.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have often problem with drawing view labels. When model is changed and I switch to the drawing then the label is moved to an random position. There is possible to little move with view, or edit label text or switch off/on label and label move back to correct position. This is very unpleasant when there s more views in drawing, is necessary to correct each label.
This happen in Inv2013 and also in Inv2014.
Is not there an possibity to minimize this?
Enclosed is example video.
I have successfully been able to rotate the drawing view. rotating the view label.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe put several parts on a single drawing sheet and ,to include the part number in the drawing view label, we must edit each view label and change the type to Properties_Model and the Property to Part Number. Is there a way to set the default of a drawing view label to include the Part Number? I tried modifying the styles to include <PART NUMBER> but it the text "<PART NUMBER>" came in instead of the value. To get the value, I had to edit the view label and hit the X with a down arrow to get the part number to show up, which is not much different than having to edit the label and change type and property. I'm looking to avoid all the view label editing as much as possible.
View 9 Replies View Relatedwhat i am trying to do is create an iLogic rule that if your drawing view scale is set to the following ...
1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:12, 1:!6, 1:24, 1:32, 1:48, etc. on the view label for that view it will diplay ...
SCALE: 1/2" = 1'-0"
and so on for the rest for the standard scale factors.
i know it will be some sort of a loop and it needs to check all views when ran for any changes.
i have never done any coding for the drawing side of inventor yet only model coding
Is it possible to change the text height of a drawing view label through VBA?
I have tried to change it by creating a new text style manually with the text height I require and then through VBA set the view label to use that style.
The View label takes on the new style but does not change the text height.
I have tried to use 'StyleOverride FontSize=' but I have text that is multi lined and using this command converts all my text onto one line.
Is it possible to change the text height of a drawing view label through VBA?
Below is my code so far,
Sub HoleDetailSheetLabels()
' Declare the Application object
Dim oApp As Inventor.Application
' Obtain the Inventor Application object.
' This assumes Inventor is already running.

Is there a way to auto label every line length of a schematic so that it displays on the cad drawing? Sort of like using the linear dimension tool but for all available lines of a layer or line within a drawing.
View 3 Replies View RelatedTypically at my company we rotate our drawing orientation under the Projects - Drawing Setup - Orientation. Rotate the drawing to a known basis of bearings. Then we label the boundary and the bearings are rotated to match the basis of bearings without having to rotate the drawing in model space. Just reciently my labels havne't been holding the orientation. So when I add a static or dynamic label the bearing reads as though my orientation is due north. BUT, when I loook at the line priperties, the bearing is correct, as it has held the orientation.

View 1 Replies View RelatedEventually 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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI realize it may be a Civil3D question. When I change my drawing scale in the "Drawing Settings" dialog box to 1"=40', for example. The Annotative scale in the Properties Palette changes to 1"=40'_XREF.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way that we can set the view label in the style library to show custom/user Properties?
We have set our iam/ipt templates to have some custom properties which we wish to display in the view label when the view is created however there this no way to add these properties to the label.
I find this a little strange as you can add these user Properties to the parts list in the style library? (I've added some screen caps to show what I am talking about)
I'm doing a program in Visual Basic 2010. In one of the forms I put a button that when clicked must open AutoCAD 2012 and make a drawing in it. The user will decide where to save it.The steps are these:
1. I added the references Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop and Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common to the Visual Basic Project. That's OK.
2. I wrote this in the heading of the form's
- Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop
-Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common
3. In the event Click of the Button1 I put this:
Dim acadApp As New AcadApplication 'Create an instance of an AutoCAD Application
AcadApp.Application.Visible = True 'Show the instance of the AutoCAD Application
Dim acadDoc As AcadDocument 'Create an intance of an AutoCAD Document
acadDoc = acadApp.Documents.Open("C:Respaldo TesisDibujo2.dwg") 'Open a Document called Dibujo 2
'Draw a line

I have a Revit problem that seems straightforward, but not to me at the moment. We have a label in the title block. The label comprises 3 parameters concatenated with “-“ separators:
Project NumberDisciplineSheet Numbereg:
123456789-A-001
Of those 3 parameters
Project Number: is inbuilt Revit Project InformationDiscipline: is Shared ParameterSheet Number: is inbuilt Revit Project Information In our Drawing List, for each sheet listed, we want one field to display the full label value: 123456789-A-001
The label associated to a grading point when is moved when is moved changes its size automatically and a leader appears. After this happen no control over the grading point and its associate label. refer to the image below.
View 1 Replies View RelatedC3D 2013. We have profile line labels, some of which get manually edited (for example, change the "<[Tangent grade(FP|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|SD|OF)]>" to a static number such as 0.29%).
However, if you CTRL+Click and select one of these labels and change the style of that one label, then the manual edits are lost and the label reverts back to the default string.
Is there any way to turn this behavior off?
Is there a way to "Edit Label Text" in a Parcel area label? Similar to the way you can edit it in other styles.
View 9 Replies View RelatedEach time when I place a part in base view, have to follow few steps; go through view label, format Text, than choose type option - [Properties-Model] and its property - [Part Number], than placing dimensions. it takes long time and very repetitive, especially, when placing a hundreds of parts and I was wondering if there is an option, to set up view label; [Properties - Model ]& [Part number], as a DEFAULT. So, each time placing a part, in base view it will come up with correct label. Also, overall dimensions, can it be retrieve using parameters of the part?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSometimes, when I have two or more drawings open in the same instance of AutoCAD, another tab opens up on the Windows Taskbar. Here's the scenerio; I have two drawings open. On the task bar, Autocad's icon shows two drawings open. Somewhere while drawing, AutoCAD will start bogging down, especially when switching drawings. On the Window's Taskbar, it will now show three drawings open. Two of which will be the same drawing. There will only be two drawings open. The drawing which is currently on top for editing will be the one that shows up twice. If I change to the other drawing, it takes a really long time to swap. Sometimes, it will sit there for a minute and then swap back to the other first drawing on it's own. I try going back to the second drawing again, and the same thing happens again. The only way to stop this from happening is to completely shut down AutoCAD and restart it. I think it has something to do with the ribbon. And I also notice it more often after doing a CopyBase, but not always.

We have a drawing that when opened for Read/Write on the Z420, it will hang, however if opened Read-Only, it will open successfully.
On the Z400, the drawing can open for Read/Write and Read-Only.
