AutoCAD 2010 :: Opening Drawings From Startup

Feb 24, 2012

I have been given a new lap top plus the updated AutoCAD rev. 2012.Supposedly it is superior to my old laptop but... it runs slower, the mouse action is awful, it's like stirring cold porridge.

Anyway, I have spent the first week battling with various bits, trying to get it to look & feel like my previous laptop using 2010.

The big issue I have is upon start up.  Rather than loading the standard AutoCAD "drawing 1" regardless, I want to have the browser open up so I can select the' previous drawings loaded on my last session or select a new drawing or browse folders to find the drawing I want.

how I managed to switch this on, back when I managed it on 2010 version.I have given up on running up & down the menus.

AutoCAD 2010 :: PC Crashes When Opening Drawings?

Jun 28, 2013

Rscently upgraded from xp to win 8, re installed autocad 2011.

Now when I try to open a drawing from within autocad my system crashes, I get a flash of horizontal lines then two blank screens.

Tried running narrator but just get static through the speakers, I have to hit the re start button to get back in.

I can open a drawing from explorer if autocad is not allready running, autocad starts and the drawing opens with no problems. but if I try to open another drawing we crash.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Opening CAL Drawings - Insert Tab Doesn't Create Dropdown Menu

Jun 14, 2013

To open .cal drawings, I've alway hit the "insert" tab and selected insert raster image from the dropdown menu.

Today, the "insert" tab doesn't create a dropdown menu. It opens a whole "insert" toolbar without any reference to raster images.

How do I open my .cal files and why did autoCAD change itself?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Opening Drawings In Background

Nov 11, 2013

most times i have to work on multiple drawings.  i open these drawings all at once, but due to their size, it takes some time to open all the files.  It would be nice if autocad would stay in the background while opening rather than forcing itself to be the focused programs after each file is opened.  this really destroys the ability to multitask and honestly just seems arrogant at this point...

AutoCAD .NET :: Processing Drawings Without Opening Them?

May 23, 2013

I modified a routine that processed xref names & paths w/in a set of folders. Thie original version would open each drawing & do its thing. THis would take about 20 minutes (aprroximately 90 files). I modified it to work w/o opening each drawing. This still takes about 20 minutes.

I would have though that not avtually opeing each drawing would dramitically decrease the overall time required to run this routine.

I just recently had to install 2009 from map 2008.  When I open drawings last worked on and saved in 2008 and open them in civil 3d 2009, I get drawings that freeze up upon opening.  Some will eventually open, showing errors.  Others will never open and just freeze up.

Illustrator :: Find Font Dialog Box Appears When Opening Files

Feb 27, 2009

This didn't used to happen, but now whenever I open an Illustrator file, the "Find Font" dialog opens as though the fonts I'm using aren't found. Not sure what it wants me to do because no matter what I try nothing resolves. I simply click the "Done" button and go about my business. And there are no problems. Why is this happening? and why now? My fonts are always loaded before I open the file, the file looks and handles just fine.

CS3 Illustrator 13.0.2
Suitcase Fusion 12.1.7

AutoCAD 2010 :: Every DXF And DWG Appears To Be Corrupt

Oct 15, 2013

It appears as if every DXF or DWG file stored on our server is corrupted.  Everything was fine until my boss tried to open a DXF file earlier today and got this message:

"new.dxf is not valid DXF file

Invalid or incomplete DXF input -- drawing discarded."

His PC has been sending out distress signals and is due for replacement so I didn't think this was that unusual.  However, I tried to open the same file on another machine and got the same message.  I got the same message attempting to open on my PC using TrueView 2010.  I then checked other DXFs and got the same problem.  DWGs just say "drawing File is not valid".

The only glimmer of hope I have is that I did have a few files saved to my desktop, rather than the server, and they open just fine.  My instinct is that my boss has been 'button bashing' (he has previous) but obviously won't admit to anything.  What other causes are possible?  Virus?

Our machines are running AutoCAD 2010 and I've attached a 'corrupted' file.

AutoCad 2D :: Opening Existing Drawings In Wrong Units

Jul 10, 2012

I have a problem with my autocad. The administrator started me out on AutoCAD 2012 global.

The problem existed then so. Now he has me on AutoCAD 2012 Imperial . The problem still exists.

When I open an existing drawing that I have never opened with my version of Autocad. It opens the drawing in Metric units. I do not want Metric units. I would like it in Imperial units. Every time I open an existing drawing, I have to change the units to Architectural.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Opening Files That Are Being Used As Xrefs In Other Drawings

Jan 26, 2012

I've recently run into a problem that involves xrefs.  Basically, I cannot open files that are being xrefed in other drawings when those drawings are currently open.  AutoCAD Architecture will only allow me to open the xrefed file as a read-only version.  For example:

I have 1ST FLOOR PLAN (drawing file) xrefed into A-201.00 FIRST FLOOR PLAN (sheet file).  If one of my team members has the sheet file open with the drawing file loaded, then AutoCAD will only let me open the drawing file as a read-only file.  But if my team member has the sheet file open with the drawing file unloaded, then I can open the drawing file without any problems.

I have never had this type of problem with xrefs before and so I'm wondering if it's an AutoCAD Architecture 2012 bug.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 Crashes Opening Drawings From PSP 2011?

Sep 29, 2011

We have used Inventor 2010 with PSP 2011.

- Recently we have upgrade to Inventor 2012.

- Installed pspro_cad_fp_10.0.39.3 update for PSP Server and for PSP Clients.

And now, some drawings we can not open in Inventor 2012. Inventor crashes!

But some drawings we are lucky to be able to open and work with.

Drawings have the same template.

If the drawing is locked (read only) then inventor 2012 can open it without a crash.

If I drag&drop drawing out from PSP onto my Desktop, Inventor 2012 can open drawing without problems.

So we are not able to work with some drawings in Inventor 2012 and PSP 2011.

As the first and quick (and 100%) solution - rollback to Inventor 2010 can cost us about 5 man-days of work. (Because we have done some work in Inventor 2012 allready and will not be able to work with this in Inventor 2010)

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Opening Drawings And Printing Over WAN Is Slow?

Aug 13, 2013

Is there a way to increase the access time so printing is faster?

I have AutoCAD 2013 and access drawings over VPN (6 meg pipe).

Both opening the drawings and especially printing them take a very long time.

It takes about 8 seconds to open drawings, due to all the modules loading on the bottom-left of AutoCAD. Printing takes even longer than opening the drawings.

Is there a setting I can change to speed-up access time?

AutoCad :: Layout Tabs Not Updating When Opening Additional Drawings

Apr 12, 2013

For the past 2 days when I switch from one drawing to another, my layout tabs are not updating and stay the same as the previous drawings. I have to do a regen to get the proper tabs in place. All the layouts are there...it is just the tabs that are messed up. Once I click on one of the tabs they straighten themselves out as well, but on that first selection I never get the correct drawing that I want!

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2014 Freezing Randomly/ Only Opening Certain Drawings

Aug 7, 2013

I am running the new auto cad civil 3d 2014, downloaded from the design suite premium. I have left all of the programs installed (as a I saw that a few people chose to uninstall several of the programs). I am running auto cad on an @xi workstation, 4.1ghz processor, 16gb corsair vengence heatspred ram, 240gb ssd operating drive, 2tb storage raid 0 configuration storage drives, NVIDIA K2000 graphics card. It took me a while to configure the graphics settings within auto cad due to the high resolution, text is being portayed as small in some cases, commands are huge in others.

I am still adjusting all of those, however my real problem is that when I open certain drawings the program immediatly goes to not responding, and when I am working back and forth and trying to open multiple drawings it does the same. Just opening the program off of my desktop on a cold-start up takes maybe 15 seconds to be fully functional, the same with certain drawings. However others just seem to not want to be opened. This occurs with drawings large and small. Some large drawings open perfectly while some small ones crash, and vice versa. What could be the cause of this?

AutoCAD 2010 :: The (window Selection) Selects Only What Appears On The Screen

Apr 19, 2012

The “window selection” selects only what appears on the screen! I wanted to select a page number located on the lower left corner of each title block of each drawing but found out that the “window selection” doesn’t keep selecting what doesn’t appear on the screen (if zoom in is applied)! For example, if I select a number of drawings and “zoom in” is applied then the window selection will only keep selecting what appears only on the screen!
 
Then how to let the “window selection” keep selecting all the objects regarding whether they appear on the screen or not?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Embedded OLE DWG Objects In Word 2010 Not Opening

Feb 12, 2013

Trouble with embedded OLE DWG objects in word 2010 not opening with AutoCAD 2012 

We have a user that can't open some OLE DWG files from within a word document. He had 2010 AutoCAD LT on his machine for a while then was upgraded to 2012 AutoCAD (non LT) once that was there LT 2010 was unistalled. since then he has not been able to open certain embedded OLE files within Word. Other users that have other ever had AutoCAD 2012 have no issue opening this embedded DWG files. 

i found this thread (URL....) which sounds exactly what is going on with my enduser. But the fix provided is for AutoCad 2000-2012 not the LT versions.

3ds Max :: Opening Exported Drawings In CAD

Oct 1, 2012

I'm going to be building an RC airplane for a winter project. Somebody drew the pieces in AutoCAD but before I have the parts sent out to be laser cut, I want to prove out the design. Since I have limited knowledge on AutoCAD, I thought I would bring the CAD file into MAX and do a virtual build there.

I've come across a few pieces so far that need to be adjusted. I can easily tweak them in max, but when I export them back out as a dwg, they have a lot more verts in CAD than they did compared to the original CAD drawing. I am guessing this is because MAX needs them to be editable splines and CAD uses polylines, and the two are just "different".

Short of doing my virtual build in AutoCAD, what are my options? Is it possible to adjust a CAD drawing inside MAX, and keep the nice clean lines AutoCAD has when I open the exported file in CAD?
