I have observed that I don't have the "Drawing View Panel" under the Annonate Tab. Try to right on the Annonate tab and go to show panels but the Drawing View panel is not on the list. How to add the Drawing View Panel?
View 4 RepliesWhen I place an Inventor 2012 part into an AutoCAD 2012 layout, the drawing view fails to update after a change is made to the Inventor file. When I click "Update View" in AutoCAD the command line says, "1 view(s) is up to date.", but the drawing does not change. Both the AutoCAD drawing and the Inventor part file are located on a server drive which is mapped as a network drive. AutoCAD displays the correct path in the drawing view properties. Running Windows 7 x64.

I've gone through the help pages in 2011, again with no sucess. Does the blue cover mean it's not available?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to Inventor 2014 we notice that the graphics do not work properly, and that the overall performance in drawings and modelling bad compared to 2013. Then we installed SP1 and now drawing views are disappearing, however when we select "shaded" view the view reappears and works perfectly..
Any workaround regarding disappearing views?
Each 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 7 Replies View RelatedI'm finally making a conscious effort to move to the ribbon... How to copy an existing panel to an existing tab?
I don't really want to start creating new panels from scratch.
I spent quite a bit of time a while back creating a custom tab panel, which displayed a collection of Lisp macros and other commands. It was set up to roll up out of sight when not needed, to give me back on-screen real estate. It has now vanished for no apparent reason. I am the only person using this machine, so I don't think it's related to any issue with changing profiles.
When I take a look inside the CUI interface I see that this tab and panel are configured with a "yes", indicating that they should be shown as part of my workspace. I've unlocked the on-screen CUI display before going to the CUI dialogue. I've also manually turned off the display of this tab and panel, then turned them on and hit "apply", before exiting the dialogue, all of this to no avail.
I'm trying to get all our users to employ the ribbon and move away from toolbars and pull-down menus and one of the last hold-outs is finally giving it a try. Unfortunately, the titles on the ribbon panels is being cut short so he doesn't see the whole height of the title. See the attached PNG.

I am a new user of AutoCad 2010 and am trying to access what used to be the detail component manager, but now I understand would be accessed through the Style and Display panel under the manage tab.
The problem is, I have no Style and Display panel
I have attached a screen shot showing the manage tab open and the CUI open showing the panel options expanded - which do not include the style and display panel- only the four panels currently installed under the Manage tab.
I've really hit a dead end and don't know where to look for the style and display panel so I can ultimately access the structural catalog.
I am a PC user and have just bought myself a new Macbook pro. I am stucked with the first hurdle, the moment I launched the AI program the middle is empty with only top and side panels. This panel setting is something very odd to me and coming from PC I never had problem changing panel settings. I spent 4 hours including googling this forum and deleted old preferences three times, no luck. How do I toggle between panel viewing options?

I can undock the draw-panel to get it in "floating" mode, but I would like it to display all the icons in one single column (so all the icons from top to bottom). I googled around, and found that it should be possible to resize the floating panel (mousepointer should change when you move it to any side). However, my floating panel doesn't allow me to do that. It always displays the icons in a 4x3 or 3x3 matrix. (depending on the orientation).

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen objects are selected, they don't show up on the properties panel (or on the Quick Select panel either) It doesn't matter what method I use:
-Pick one object (lines, arcs, circles, blocks, etc), the Quick Properties flyout appears, but empty. Properties flyout show "no selection"
-Window-select object or objects. Quick Properties bar shows up empty again. Properties flyout show "no selection"
-Click on the Quick Select icon. It prompts me to pick geometry. I do. The Quick Select window comes up, but where it says "Object Type", it only has the option "Multiple", and not the normal list of the geometry you selected.

I have sold my colleagues on using a ribbon control (instead of a palette) for our custom commands, but... I am stuck on one last detail.
Here's where I'm at.
Using AU examples:
- I have my beautiful new ribbon loading on startup/initialize (IExtensionApplication.Initialize)
- My dll is registering and everything is working as expect.
However.Many users prefer to un-dock panels from the ribbon and place them on their second monitor, either stacked or horizontal. Once the user exists autocad and restarts the application the panels (from the custom ribbon) return to their native positions. The out-of-box ACAD/ACADE retain their position. How can I get my custom ribbon's source panels to retain their last positions?
Somehow I have lost the ability to size the right side of my Bridge panel. It is too large and I cannot bring the right side border into view to see my Metadata and Preview Panels.Also the numbering of the thumbnails is lost "off the screen".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a couple of students whose models are flashing polygons badly when I orbit the panel. It kind of looks like when you have two polygons residing on the same plane, but I checked and that is not the case. The flashing stops when I zoom in on the model. When selecting an object, it becomes transparent (when zoomed out a bit).
The students said this occurred after they brought their model into the student edition, which they have at home, and saved it.
I am at a loss, and visually it is really bad. The renders are fine. Some of their objects have some modeling issues, but the flashing occurs with all objects, even simple ones.
Is there a command / system variable to set all buttons on every panel in the ribbon to have a button style of "smallwithouttext". I wiould like to do this without having to adjust each button manually
View 3 Replies View RelatedAdobe illustrator CS5 on Mac OS X 10.7.4.
I used to be able to do something like effect->3d-> revolve, then go to the actions panel and bring up the 3D revolve, click on it and edit it again. Now, when I open the actions panel the simple 3d revolve is replace with a long long list of actions of course I can't bring up the 3d revolve effect and edit it.
I have removed all of the Illustrator prefs in my library file; but, it still does it.
Open Effects>Stylise>Rounded Corners, Turn on Preview (BTW how do I make PREVIEW ON! as the default for all effects panels/windows?)Now I want to Hide the Bounding Box and the Edges... but those shortcuts are now inoperable.
Photoshop allows me to hide bounding box, and the rulers, I think, when having an effect window open, why does Illustrator not permit this?Is there an alternative other than canceling out and starting again with the view qualities changed?
Seems needlessly long winded to cut off these shortcuts just because an effects settings window/panel is open.
Eventually 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?
