AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Color In Some Letters And Symbols
Mar 3, 2012
I'm using ACAD 2012 3D. I want to color in some letters and symbols, but whenever I do they get muffled away by the material I selected for my object.
Here's a render prt scn: [URL]....
As you can see the black arrow is partially yellow, which I do not want. The problem doesn't only happen after rendering, but in my model space as well. I tried all kind of things to get it all black. Hatch, make a solid out of it, different layer, draworder, apply other materials, but nothing seems to work. What goes for the arrow goes for all the words in gray/white too.
In case you wonder, I've made an effect pedal for guitar.

I'm having a problem with printing. When i print a page all line and letters are printed in gray scale BUT the hatches will print out in color. I was able to view the same drawing under a different login and found it was the drawing is in Gray Scale when printing (but not viewing). How do I change the settings on the drawing to print out full color

I am trying to type in notes or commands into AutoCAD and sometimes the wrong symbols appear.
Example:
I'm trying to type in 3'-6" and instead this show up 3è-6È. If this starts to happen, it will keep happening until I log out of my computer and log back in.
I have already checked my keyboard settings and it is set in English (Canada). This only happens in AutoCAD. Microsoft Office and all my other programs don't have this issue.

I am running ACAD Mech 2012. Our LA office has ACAD LT. Every single letter, line, symbol, etc is made up of a bunch of different pieces. I found that the word SPARE was made up of 46 pieces! I have attached a portion of the drawing. I have never seen anything like this and I can't even imagine how this could be made or changed into this.

In AutoCad 2000 there was a design center that showed my symbols on the CD. Now I have 2010 and can't acess my symbols on the CD. I can't run the installl on the CD because I don't have admin rights.

We are using Autocad 2012 & some of our users can not put Degree, Diameter, Plus/Minus Symbols in their drawings.%%P, %%D, %%C does not work in single line or M-Text. The symbols work In dimensions.

When using TEXT or DTEXT I can add centerline, 1/4, or 1/2 symbols while using the ROMANS font.
It would make sense to me that when I am using MTEXT, this should apply. However when I try to insert the symbols this is what happens: My text style stays the same, but the font gets changed to ISOCPEUR and symbols have a bold type appearance.

When working in a drawing, I don't see a selection for weld symbols in Annotate - Symbols. Are they not available in LT? Is there something I need to do to activate them?

I work all across the country with different architects and engineers on a contract basis. Typically I create a custom menu that reflects each clients colors, symbols, layering ect. But now I have just upgraded to Acad 2012 and don't know how to create a custom menu in 2012 for each client. Is it even possible? What I have found is the customize button but when I modify a command for a specific client it makes the same change for all clients, as all that I was doing was modifying a workspace, and only modifying the command. What I have done in the past is to take the Acad.mns and copy it and rename it client-name-Acad.mns and make the necessary changes that the clients standards required. Can I still do something like that?

I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7. It has a 500GB HD, 4GB RAM, 16" screen and CorelDRAW X5 and Summa's WinPlot bridge software installed. Everything runs perfectly.
I want to be able to cut vinyl letters from my Summa D75R vinyl cutter and then to cut a different colored outline to be applied over the top of those letters. The letters themselves, that is, the main body of the letters, I can cut with no problem.
I know that I will have to separate the two elements and cut the letters from one file and the outlines from a different file. As an experiment I created a single word with a color. I then created an outline for that word. I deleted the body of the letter leaving only the outline.
I then did a "Convert to Curves" on the outline and imported the image into the WinPlot software that my Summa D75R vinyl cutter uses. I sent the image to the cutter but it cut it as a solid letter. It did not make a double-line cut as it would have to do to make the image an outline.

How to take the Castellar MT font and fill in the blank spaces in the letters with colour? I need to use this font because that's my company's font for their name and I'm trying to design a sign. I have used the blob brush, but I keep getting tiny little specks that look like they're not filled in.

CS6. I have this logo, red circle w/white letters and superscript 2. It's going to be printed on light gray fabric. I assume that I need to make transparent canvas and transparent letters (lu) so that it takes the gray color of the fabric and not the white background and letters of my file but when I rasterize type, save and open it again I cannot edit.

Is there any way to screen parts of a drawing other than using colors? For instance Microstation can screen using fences.
Basically I have one file of line work I am referencing into my sheet file. This line work consists of around 40 streets for a construction project. I need to be able to show where each street is according to surrounding city blocks. The idea is to have the street being worked on as being bold and surrounding streets screened out. Is there any way to do this aside from making each street its own file?

I'm new to 3d.....How to render a drawing like the image attached. I know how to attach materials, but the powers that be want it to look like the image. Also can one solid have different colors assigned to it? The drawing attached should hopefully explain what I mean.

I can not plot in color! Using Civil3d 2012 64 bit. Plotting to a HP DesignJet 5500 which I think is set to use the new driver for 64 bit. I have tried everything I know. Been doing this many years and I have never ran into this one. Used CTB ACAD, None and tweaked a few of my own. The funny thing is if I have an image that will plot in color and the other funny thing is I can send the same plot to a HP Color LaserJet 5550 PS (standard office size) and the dwg plots just fine in color so I'm thinking it has something to do with the 64 bit side of things.

I need to color a polygon which is made with single line with different colors. Right now what i am doing is retracing the required part for particular color and then coloring it, but this is very time consuming. So is there a simpler way?
For example in the attached file consider that in yellow box i need to fill red above and green in lower portion. How to do that?

Been using ACAD for 20+years...AutoCAD 2012/Civil 3D 2012 is driving me nuts. Simple question I am sure. I created a new layer with green as its color. It is showing up as yellow in my viewport. I checked my plot style(ctb), and is same as I have used for many years....prints black(pen 7). Typically shows green on screen and plots black. Looking in the Layer Properties Manager, I noticed that on the far right, there is a column labeled 'VP Plot Syle'. It has Color 2(yellow) shown. How do I change this as I am guessing this is causing issue.

I have a few xrefs loaded into my drawing and I want them all to appear greyscale (color 9) so that whatever I draw on top of the xref is in color and is easy to spot..
I have tried putting the xref on a layer that is default color 9 but the xref is still shown in color. How to set the xref to color grey?
