AutoCAD 2010 :: Insert Title Block And Annotations With Pictures In Design Using Paperspace Option

Mar 19, 2012

I have just finished my design and I wanted to insert a title block and annotations with pictures using the paperspace option. I want to print the design out onto A1 Paper (80000mm x 56000mm) to a 1:100 scale.

What I want to know is what is the dashed line, how do I make the paperspace A1 size and a 1:100 scale, as well as wanting to know how to make the title block and add annotations to the design.

One problem I am facing is that any line I do create comes out bold as well as when I zoom into the drawing itself every line is bold. Why is this?

Aug 9, 2012

I am attempting to attach a title block into a layout.  This is my process:

2.  When I specifiy the location and scale, I cannot find the attached drawing.

why can't I attach files larger than 1.5 KB?  I can't attach anything useful!

AutoCAD 2010 :: Convert Block Back To Title Block Or Border

Feb 15, 2012

We have a title block and border which is used in MS.  If this is referenced using AMTITLE then it acts as expected.  We issue these to some external people to create our drawings but they have been using CTRL-C and V to place them in a new drawing.  ACAD does now not see them as a Title block or border but as blocks.  We have a process to bring DWG's into SAP and this will check for a title block and border. 

The issue is we need to fix these drawings and currently this means removing the borders and title blocks and placing new ones then adding all the attributes again.  Is there a way to convert the blocks back to how they should be?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Title Block Text Size Change Does Not Work

Mar 20, 2013

I have tried to change the size of the text in the title block and in other places within a drawing, but the changes are ignored. They always come back to Tahoma 0.120"

Is this a bug in the program?

Inventor 2013 with the latest service packs, etc.

I really need to make some changes to the title block and making the text smaller is one of them.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Title Block To Be Same In All Tabs

Mar 21, 2013

I know how to insert title block in a layout tab. i want the title block to be the same block in all the tabs i am using. if i have 10 tabs i would like each layout tab to have the same title block. i will also need properties to where i change the date on the cover sheet, all layout tabs will be changed at the same time.

this also needs to be 1 file and not a base file and xref.

i know this works because i am working in autocad where it is implemented. this was done by an individual before i started at this job.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Setup Text In Title Block

Feb 6, 2013

AC 2012, Win 7 64 Bit..I sent up this template a while ago, and for the life of me, I can't remember how I setup the text in the title block.I had it set so some text would only have to be changed on the first sheet, and the remainder would automatically populate on a regen.

When I tried to duplicate it, in the field dialog box I can't seem to find out how I got the block reference. Field category=Objects, Field names=Object, Object Type=Block reference.

AutoCAD 2010 :: 2011 - Electrical Title Block Implementation

AutoCAD 2010 :: Drawing Scale As Defined Attribute In Title Block

Mar 13, 2012

Is it possible to create a 'drawing scale' defined attribute inside my title block when brought into paper space?  I tried setting it up using 'plotscale' fieldname with various formats and it keeps coming in as 1" = 1' or 1:1 rather than 1" = 20' because that's what my plot scale is inside paper space but my drawing scale is 20 scale.  If I bring the title block in model space, it adjusts, but I don't plot from model space.  Surely there's a way to make this automated inside paper space.

Also, I just setup a 'Date' attribute inside my title block today.  What's the difference between Date, Saved Date and Plot Date?  Will 'Date' update if its in a drawing and opened up a month from now and saved or do i need to take 'Date' out and replace with 'Saved Date' or Plot Date'?.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Create One Title Block That Fits All Paper Sizes

Mar 28, 2012

(again): how to create one title block that fits all paper sizes?
 
In the ArcGIS, the same layout can fit all paper sizes and there is no need to customize the layout for each paper size manually. For example, if the map is set up based on A4 paper size and then needed to be printed in A0 size, then all the lay out elements will be automatically proportionally changed to fit the new paper size.
 
I’m not sure if there is an equivalent features in the AutoCAD that handle this issue

AutoCAD LT :: 2010 Design Center Block Updates Kills Display Order In Drawing

Nov 15, 2012

Working in AutoCAD LT 2010.

Drawing format 2007 or 2010

bedit, OK if you regenall after

refedit, Ok if you regenall ofter

design Center - display order goes out the window. The inserted block is redefined but the rest of the drawing loses all its display order. sortents (127, 33, 51, etc) and displayorderctl does nothing, either before or after the block is redefined. hatches and blocks just jump to the front (display order shows as order of drawn not order as moved to) Regenall does nothing.

absolute nightmare with display order managed elevations (solid hatch, baconies, windows, multple buildings, all overlaying!!)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Retaining Title Block Prompted Entries When Changing Title Blocks

Apr 26, 2013

The title blocks that we use have prompted entries in them and I would like to find a way using iLogic to copy the entries from one title block to another within the same drawing; i.e.. if the user decides to change from an A2 to A1 drawing.

I already have an iLogic rule which allows the user to change the active border, title block and sheet size based on a form selection but would like it to capture the prompted entries already entered and re-use them after the change.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Block Command Doesn't Work - Crosshairs Instantly Turn Into Windows Arrow

Aug 19, 2010

Why my Block command does not work anymore?

I type in the command ( I'm an old school typer, hate the buttons ) BLOCK....then the next thing that happens is (after hitting enter of course), my crosshairs instantly turn into the Windows arrow.

I wasn't playing with any switches. I was just trying to make a little block with a number in it.

Yes, I restarted AutoCAD, restarted the computer, did not reload in AutoCAD.....AutoCAD 2011 by the way.

I run Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.

I have to do a WBLOCK to make the blocks I need to bypass this odd behavior.

AutoCad :: Attribute In Title Block Exists In Block Editor But Not In Project

Sep 6, 2012

Autocad 2011, Electrical package,

I have an existing title block a few text attributes, to which I wish to add a watermark. I have added it in the block editor as a normal attribute, with the same details as the other attributes that work, only a different tag name. It has a default value, "DRAFT" and is tagged "WMARK". It works fine in the Block Editor, and If I test the block I can edit it to display whatever I want, but if I save the block and open it from Autocad proper, the attribute is not in existence, either as a default value, or editable from block properties, attribute editor or title block editor, whereas all of the other attributes are there. I have used BattMan to verify the settings of the attribute, and the only difference is that the others all have "L" in the "Modes" column, but I think that means that their position is "locked" whereas my new attribute is justified "aligned" therefore cannot be "locked" (This is some assumption on my part, as the documentation on the "Modes" column is almost non-existent). I cannot afford to waste much more time on this issue, as the boss is breathing down my neck, but editing watermarks on every drawing after every revision is frustrating, when it could be an attribute that is editable from the title block editor.

AutoCad :: Create Block To Insert On Title Block

Oct 26, 2012

Is it possible to create a block to insert on our title block that will populate itself with a list of drawings and names?

I know this is possible through the use of LISP and the Sheet Set Manager, but could this be done through a combination of attributes and fields (we want the same functionality in LT).

AutoCAD .NET :: Getting Block Attributes From Title Block

Sep 19, 2011

I'm trying to chnage the text of the sheet number and total sheet number attributes for each layout in my drawing.  I have code that adds and deletes the specified pages, now I need to edit the attributes to reflect the correct page and correct total amount of pages.  Here is my code, based on my old VBA version.

I know there is a problem with the line:

For Each item In myBTR.ObjectId

I've used a number of websites and books, but I would really like to find something that teaches about block tables, block table references, block table IDs so I can get a better understanding of breaking stuff down to get the info I need. 

Public Sub updatePageNumbers()
Dim myDWG As Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Document
Dim myDB As Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Database
Dim myTransManForPageNumbers As Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.TransactionManager
Dim myTransForPageNumbers As Transaction

AutoCAD 2010 :: Palettes Always Load In Middle Of Screen

We have several tool palettes that I use all the time. And every time I close down AutoCAD and open it back up, all the palettes load back up in the middle of my left monitor (dual monitor set up). I typically have my AutoCAD window open on the left monitor, and my palettes on the right monitor.

I have tried to save my profile, lock all Toolbar/Palette positions.....and nothing has any affect. My palettes always load in the middle of my left monitor.

I tried loading the latest graphics drivers, no affect.
