AutoCAD Inventor :: Extrude Text With Specific Font Type

Aug 21, 2012

I'm trying to extrude some text with the font type "CommercialScript BT". In Inventor 2011 this was not a problem. In Inventor 2012 and 2013 I get the error:   

Create extruded feature failed
Part4: Errors occurred during update
Extrusion3: Could not build this Extrusion

Self-intersecting loop found in this profile.  Remove the intersection by adding a sketch point at curve intersections or by changing non-profile geometry to construction geometry.

Is there a way to solve this? I have tried to extrude other fonts without any problem. I can also extrude one single letter with the font "CommercialScript BT" without any problem but as soon as I writes a word I get the error.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Explode Block Without Losing Attribute Text?

Jun 18, 2013

I am using AutoCAD 2012 (Electrical).  I have a few blocks that I pasted in a drawing with text that is contained in attributes. 

I would like to explode these blocks so that I can make some changes to them, but when I do this, I lose the text that is contained in the attributes.  After exploding the blocks, I just see the attribute names rather than the text that they originally contained.

I hate to have to re-type all this info.  If I could somehow choose to choose to convert the text originally contained in attributes to plain old static text, that would be perfect for me.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Explode Attributes To Text - Turning Blocks Into Entities

Jul 27, 2012

I am running AutoCAD 2012 Electrical.  The source wiring diagrams I am working with have attributed blocks all over the drawing.  For my purposes, I dont need to export the data, but I do need to change the drawing.  When I use "Burst" or "Explode Attributes to Text" in the Express Tools menu, it does change the attributes to text. However, it throws all the data that is in in the attribute all over the face of the drawing.  This is extremely time consuming to delete them as some are micro small text. 

I need a command that will explode the attributes to text, turning the blocks into entities, as if there are no blocks at all.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Style Font Override

Jan 4, 2013

I have a text style called standard2 in a drawing, I put all text whether it be in blocks, dimensions, mtext, dtext everything into the style I want.  Purge the drawing which gets rid of the style, save it, close it then reopen.  I then get Standard style reset, existing objects moved to standard2 and now the standard2 style is back in the drawing.  This problem is only affecting some drawings and not all drawings.

We are using an iFilter that reads DWG files but it only seems to get text displayed in a TrueType font.  Can you reccommend an iFilter that reads/indexes/catalogs all the text on a DWG file no matter the font?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Font Type Appearance On Screen

Oct 21, 2012

For some reason, my autocad application will not display the text type on screen correctly. This began on Friday of last week (10/19), and remains today (10/21). It is not simply one drawing file, but all drawing files that I open. When I initiate the MTEXT Editor, the correct font appears, but not in the drawing window.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Explode

Jun 27, 2012

Has any experienced a situation where they were unable to explode a block created with the cut & paste command?

My block "A$C58A67B84" which is an anonymous name created by AutoCAD is a floor plan from a customer in which we need to make changes or additions to however this block acts like when it was created the "Allow Exploding" box was un-checked. I know that was not the case though, since all I did was a regular "Cut & Paste".

AutoCAD 2010 :: Cannot Explode Region

Mar 20, 2013

I am having one region entity which is not getting exploded.

This region is resultant of solid editing (bolean opearions) on some regions. When I use explode() function to explode this region programatically it returns status as 'eNotApplicable'. And if I try to explode this region manually using EXPLODE command in AutoCAD 2010 it gives message as 'Cannot explode REGION'.

I am not getting why this is causing problem in 2010 only. It is working fine in other AutoCAD versions.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Explode Polyline / Polygon Within Block

Jul 23, 2012

I would like to explode a polygone I've created within a block.

But I get the "_amexplode This command is not allowed while the REFEDIT command is active."

Um so, I have to explode the block, explode the ployline/polygone and recreate the block.

Or, I could minus the polygone from the block set, save the block, explode the polygone, reopen the block and add the lines back in.

I don't see an explode option in the "pedit" options.

Am I missing something here, is there more than one explode command now?  It worked in a previous version.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Explode Text To Sketch?

Oct 1, 2012

Is it possible to convert Text to a sketch in which I can edit individual letters. I want to use the text as a profile path for a plasma cutter. I tried Emboss, but Letters with islands in them, completely cut the letter out. I want to be able to add a bridge for one of a better word, by editing a sketch.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Glitch With Explode Text Command

May 12, 2011

When using the TXTEXP command to explode text in Map 2012, the resulting text/lines are 1/12th their original size and automatically move to a different location (see the attached jpg).  This behavior occurs in all drawings being edited in Map 2012 (my colleague who is still using 2011 has no problems exploding text, and neither did I until I upgraded to the new version...) 

Although the results are odd, they seem to be consistently odd in that 1) the text is always scaled down by 1/12th, and 2) the text/lines always move to the upper right hand portion of the view screen (Model or Paper space, doesn't matter), right below the Minimize/Restore Down/Close icons.  Using the explode text command via the ribbon vs. typing it makes no difference.  Fiddling with the original text properties (i.e. making it annotative, changing the orientation or Z coordinates, etc.) also makes no difference in the resulting lines.

Nov 15, 2012

I have created an attribute say 1 and made a circle and moved the attribute text next to the circle and now making a block including both text and circle but when the block is created the text disappears I have made sure to check the annotation on in both attribute and block creation. This is just happening in Autocad Map 3D 2012. Dont know why the text disappears but when i explode the block it is back.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Extrude 3D Polyline Into 3D Solid?

Jul 19, 2012

I've had a problem for a while now trying to extrude a 3d polyline into a 3d solid. The polyline is on different planes which is one cause of why it won't work. Instead of extruding into a solid it only does the sides making it a mesh rather than a solid. If its on one plane I know it will work.

AutoCAD .NET :: Explode Block With Attributes / Converting Attribute To Text?

Feb 7, 2012

I wrote this little piece of code (attached) that explode all the blocks in the current drawing.This is magical, compared with what we had to do in VBA.

This works perfectly but now I want to go deeper and managed blockreferences with attributes.Based on my code, I can determine if oBTR.HasAttributeDefinitions is true or false.

If the blockreference has attributes, I suppose I will have to use Explode instead of ExplodeToOwnerSpace.

My first question is, using explode, I need before to know in which space the blockreference is inserted (Model or any layout) so to insert the exploded entities correctly. So, is it possible from a blockreference to get its own SpaceId?

An another idea I had is to edit the blockreference (not the block definition) to replace attributes with text...

AutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Extrude Closed Polyline Shapes

Oct 9, 2012

I am not able to extrude closed polyline shapes. I get the following message:

Cannot create solid from open curve.

Cannot sweep or extrude non-planar objects.

Unable to extrude the selected object.

Other folks have opened my drawing – some can extrude, some get the same or similar message. I’ve tried re-building the shapes to extrude. It worked with one thing this morning and now it won’t extrude again.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Stop UCS From Automatically Turning To World When Extrude A Circle

Mar 20, 2012

How to stop the UCS from automatically turning to world when extruding a circle?

Example: If you start with a circle drawn to your set 3 point UCS the quadrants are in line with the X & Y but as soon as you extrude the circle into a cylinder the UCS turns the quadrants to world, I want the quadrants to stay in the same place as my 3 point UCS position.

Not sure if it's just a system variable that need changing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Extrude Geometry Text

Jul 7, 2013

I'm fairly new to the world of CAD, and I was just working on a phone case for my friend when I tried to extrude geometry text, but couldn't because the OK and Apply options were greyed out. I tried embossing and making a hole, but they were greyed out for them too. I tried messing with the settings to see if I could fix it, but I still couldn't. I'm really confused right now, I remember doing something similar for a case I made for myself.?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Editing Block - Dims Text And Arrows Grow Larger When Explode Or Burst

Dec 17, 2013

I have received details that have been blocked that I need to edit. When I expode or burst them, the dims text and arrows grow larger than is required for the block and I cannot find any adjustment in the properties to bring them back to the correct size for the detail. Also the leaders lose their point and association with their text and become just a line.

Is there a command that will allow me to edit the block without loosing the current sizing and associations?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Explode Excel Table But Keep Table-layout And Texts

Mar 14, 2013

In our company, we put Excel tables in our drawings. The reason we've chosen for Excel-tables is that we can adjust the layout of the table quite easily. These tables consist of grouped cells in a particular company-specific layout. We select the range of the desired cells, copy and paste them in our AutoCAD drawing. This drawing is sent to our customers. The disadvantage of this method is, that when our customers (who use CAD-software of other brands) open the dwg, they don't see the table, but some kind of picture of the table.

Is there a way to 'explode' the excel-table, but keep the specific layout of the table? For attributes in blocks there's the 'Explode Attributes'-command in the Express-tools, but is there something similar for Excel-tables?

AutoCad 3D :: Make Outlined Text From Illustrator Extrude Properly

Jul 16, 2012

I am currently trying to make a bracelet with text engraved in the outside of it with autocad, and my current problem is that I have to make the text 3D before I can subtract it from the bracelet. I am using autocad for mac, which means I dont have the express tools, most notably textexp. I am fairly sure that, without other programs, making 3d text with autocad for mac is impossible. I have tried making text in adobe illustrator, outlining it, and exporting it to autocad, but when I explode it (with the default explode command) and extrude the text, it looks like this:

As you can see, very few of the letters get properly extruded, and some arent even effected at all. I've tested other fonts, and they all have the same problem, albeit with some differences in exactly which letters are changed. Except papyrus, in which none of the text gets extrudedhow to make outlined text from illustrator extrude properly, be my guest! The same goes if you have a different way to make 3D text.
