AutoCAD Map 3D :: How To Get From Paper Space To Model Space While Converting Scale Properly

Feb 8, 2012

I need to have users plot to DWF from paper space so they can retain their customized layers colors etc, on that specific paper space tab, as well as the view via viewport that they like most.

I then am mixing this with FDO data generated out of Model space. Unfortunately, when using the EXPORTLAYOUT command, the data is coped into Model space but seems to retain it's paper space coordinates. I had hoped this function would behave like CHSPACE and copy everything from paper to model space in the same scale.

Is there a way for me to achieve this?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Dynamic Blocks Showing In Model Space But NOT In Paper Space

Mar 22, 2012

I am a landscape architect trying to xref in civil backgrounds. I have noticed twice now from two different civil firms that some of the civil symbols (dynamic blocks) are having visibility issues in paper space. No the viewport layers are not turned off or frozen. No the views weren't placed using the sheet set manager. Yes the blocks are created on layer zero and yes the associated layer is not off or frozen. I don't believe these blocks are annotative blocks. They appear, as expected, perfectly clear in model space. I just toggel over to paper space and "poof" they've disappeared.

AutoCad :: Changing Of Units In Model Space Does Not Affect Length Of Line In Paper Space

Dec 26, 2012

Wile using acad2011...

In model space I set the units form my dwg (cm), draw a line (100units). Next i go to paper space, create a viewport. When the viewport scale is set to 1:1 the ploted line is 100mm in length (not 100cm). Why is this so? How should I correct this? Changing of units in model space does not effect the length of the line in paper space.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Changing Between Model Space To Paper Space Locks Application

Apr 12, 2013

In 2012 Autocad, cannot change from model space to paper space, or paper space to model space without locking up in several drawings.

In 2012 Autocad, cannot change from model space to paper space, or paper space to model space without locking up in several drawings.

I can log into another user's computer and open the file fine. But when i use my computer or a brand new computer fitting all Auto CAD specs, it locks up. When I plot I have to reset my settings to the PTE standards every time.

I now get CAD errors when CAD is not even open. Also VTPSUHM barely works. I generally have to restart my computer several times to get it to work.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Fields In Model Space To Paper Space?

May 2, 2012

determine if Fields can be used in model space inside a block and show up in the paper space view as a correct number, (say for a detail number)? I have all of my detail blocks in model space and would like to place fields in the title blocks of the details so that they would show the paper space sheet number that they are being shown on in paper space. I have done some experimenting and cannot seem to get it to work. Or will this just not work?

1.- Details in model space are blocks, and I want to edit the block and insert a field into the detail callout.

2.- I want to have the model space detail read the paper space drawing number, and have the fields change to the proper sheet number.

3.- The result will be the that the model space block fields have changed to the proper detail sheet number shown on the paper space border.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Model Space / Paper Space Display

I have a drawing that has several Paper Space tabs, and each tab has one or more viewports.

When I open the drawing, I can see all the information in Paper Space mode, and I can access the Model Space through the viewports, using the MS command. When I switch to Model Space, nothing is displayed.

So I just recieved drawings from a contractor and they placed all the multileaders and details on the paper space but when I go to change the model space things are no longer pointing at the right spot.

What I am trying to do is copy them into model space but.... when I use crtl-c from paper, crtl-v to model it doesn't scale properly.

AutoCad 2D :: Cannot Type Text In Either Model Or Paper Space

Anyway, I can't seem to be able to type anything in text or mtext windows. I either have my keyboard input ignored completely, or I get blank spaces, depending on what font I choose. Disabling the Aero themes don't work. All runs fine in a XP virtual machine, but more slowly.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Mtext Not Showing Up In Paper Space

Jun 26, 2013

I used "save as" to create a new drawing from an existing file that I did not have any problems with.  For some reason, the mtext that already existed shows up in my viewports as well as new leader text, but any new mtext that I've added does not.  The viewports were also already existing from the previous file.  I have not changed any settings either!

All of the layers are on, and I've tried deleting and re-adding the viewports with no luck.  All of the text settings are the same as the original file, and like I mentioned before I did not have any problems with the previous file.

AutoCad :: How To Change Model / Paper Space Line Thickness

Nov 1, 2006

How I would change both the model and paper space thickness of a line in AutoCAD 2004? I've tried changing "line thickness" and "line weight" in the properties dialog box but it doesn't seem to matter whether it's 0 or 9,999,999 or any number, it just looks the same, in both the model space and paper space views.

I have a drawing someone else did that uses polylines of different thickness so I have tried to figure out how they did it. Again, looking at the properties dialog box it seems to make no difference what I set the "line thickness" or "line weight" properties to...the line just stays the same size regardless.

I want to change line thicknesses because I'm designing a surface water pipe layout...I want the pipes to be a lot thicker than the lines that represent the actual building so that they will stand out when I plot the drawing.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimensions In Paper Space

Feb 16, 2012

I had the need on occasion to dimension in Paper Space. I set up a "Dim Style" to accomplish this in either 1/8" or 1/4" Scale. The problem I am having is the consistency of the actual dimension. 

For example: I could draw a simple box 10'x2'. When I dimension in Paper Space, sometimes it correctly displays the dimensions and sometimes it incorrectly displays the dimension.

I attached 2 screen shots of what is happening. Notice the dimension on top of the box shows 10', but when I dimensioned the bottom of the box it shows 480'. This seems to work at random.

The other screen shot shows the Dim Style settings I used.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Snapping In Paper Space

Jul 8, 2013

We detail an extensive amount of 3D solid entities using viewports in layout tabs.  Most of detailing entities are in model space, things like dimensions, part callout, and other text entities that provide description as to what's going on in the viewport.  Periodically, there is a need to create entities in paper space.  Lets say for example, I'm zoomed out to the layout of the page setup, and I have a viewport with a lot of 3D solid entities.  Still zoomed out now, I want to add an icon to the corner of the viewport.  When I invoke the "endpoint" osnap to insert my icon at the viewport's, without zooming in, and try to pick a corner of the viewport, the icon gets inserted to an endpoint of an entity that's in model space.  What a pain in the behind.  The only real work-around is to zoom right into the corner of the viewport, which defeats the whole point of osnaps in the first place.

I remember this not being the case.  Did AutoCAD introduce a variable and set it's default to something that I don't it to be, or is this a screw-up of AutoCAD?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Put Dimension In Paper Space

Jan 19, 2012

I am attempting -- without much success -- to put my dimensions in paperspace. The problem is that sometimes (almost always) the dimension value is in paperspace. That is, when I do a Linear Dimension of two points of an object while in paperspace the resulting value will be a few inches instead of many feet. 

My model is drawn at full size; my viewport is set to 1/4" = 1'-0"; I am using ACA 2012.

I am not sure if it instructive, but I have found:

- The only time it comes out correct is if my first point is at 0,0. But if the second point is 0,0 it will be wrong (paperspace value). Bizarre
- most of the "wrong" dimensions have the "Associative" property set to "No". The box is grayed out so I am not sure how to change it.
- If I MEASUREGEOM, the value is the correct model space length but if I do a linear dimension using the same two points the value is in paperspace.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Paper Space Dimensions?

Jan 26, 2012

When dimensioning in paper space and move or make any adjustment to the viewports the dimensions go haywire and move of the parts but not all dimension and not all viewports are doing this. I'm using the same dimension style and templates that I normally use.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimensioning On Paper Space

Aug 15, 2012

How to change your settings so that when dimensioning an object that is in model space, while floating over it in paper space, it will give you the actual dimensions in model space?

Seems that it should be a variable setting or something you can change in DIMSTYLE.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Multileader In Paper Or Model Space?

Nov 9, 2013

in general, I add my multileaders in paperspace after I have set my model space scale.  However, I am now bound to that scale! That is, ML in paperspace really only have one scale: 1-1, right? For example, I wanted to zoom in to a part of my project (ie, reduced my scale by a 1/3) and all my ML we pointing erroniously into space.

Just so I undestand, if one anticipates changing the scale of a drawing mid-project, the ML should be made annotative, and placed in model space?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Model Versus Paper Space

Aug 16, 2012

I received a drawing form a vendor that is in 3d (27 meg)...this drawing contains the model and 4 paper space sheets.

These sheets contain different pieces of the 3d model.  I need to create four 2d drawings (one for each sheet).  I have tried "export layout to model" with no luck as most of the drawing does not export.  I have tried to copy to clipboard but, drawing is too large for the clipboard.  I have looked in the "help" and there seems to be nothing on converting a 3d drawing to a 2d drawing or extracting indivigual sheets to a 2d format model.  I have tried exploding the information on the sheets in order to get everything to export but that doesn"t work.
