AutoCAD 2010 :: Occluded Edges On Mouseover?
Mar 27, 2013
in autocad 2010, while working on a 3d project, realistic visual style, occluded edges would show when i put the mouse over a 3d object so i could see the shape of this object.
i am using autocad 2012 now, and these edges don't show.i know i can make these occluded edges always show in the visual styles settings, but that's not what i need.
i only need them to show on mouseover like it used to do in autocad 2010.
in "visual effects settings", line highliting is both set to "dash" and "thicken", so that's not the problem.
see below
attachement "no lines" = how a 3d object is appearing when selected or mouseover
attachement "lines" = how i want that 3d object to appear when selected or mouseover

In previous versions of autocad after I select a line, and put the mouse pointer over a vertex, there would be an on screen number displaying the length of the line. In Autocad 2013 this seems to have disappeared. how to get it back?

I'm trying to print out a Layout in Autocad 2012 but the edges of cylinders either go faint or disappear completely.
This happens when using both PDF and normal printers. If I look at the layout in Print Preview all the lines are there in full. Attached is the result of a PDF print.

I am trying to make a mouse over text pop up when you roll over each of these lots on this plat map. Basically it shows a price and acreage size for each lot you rollover. Is this possible with gimp?

how to change color on mouseover for virtually everything except text elements. I have 3 text boxes on a page and I simply want to change the font color when I mouseover them. I've searched the entire web and the forums but no dice getting anything to work.

I'm trying to build a small photo gallery within Edge Animate. I have a symbol which is essentially 10 images or so side by side, and buttons below that are directional arrows left and right. I want to have it set up where when you hover over one of those buttons, it moves the photo slideshow left and right. I havent been able to find the correct code and it is currently inoperable.
Right now, I have this in the BtnRight symbol, which is the arrow to move the slideshow to the right.
sym.$('PhotoTimeline').animate({
left: "+=30px",
}, 20 );
}, 2000);
It doesn't work however. Any simple code that I can input into the syntax of the arrow symbols to allow my photo gallery to slide left and right on mouse over?

I am currently using AutoCAD 2010. I'm placing some length dimensions on partial sections of a circle and the arc dimension comes straight out from the chosen points as a dimension of a flat line does. I would like it to look like an angular dimension without having to use a text override. Is there any way to change that to where the placed dimension lines follows the edges of the section instead of coming straight out?

I'm programming buttons in Edge Animate, which are just symbols with their own timeline. I've given them actions in click, mouseover and mouseout states. They just call URLs and work correctly, but I've noticed that the cursor doesn't turn into pointer (the hand pointing with the forefinger) in mouseover state. This creates a bit strange feeling, because users won't be sure that they are buttons before they click them...

Since Edge only has rectangles and ellipses built in as available shapes, how to I/we work with polygon shapes and active mouseover areas INSIDE of these shapes and non-active mouseover areas OUTSIDE of the shapes?
Problem/symptom: when I import a polygon, be it any file format from from Photoshop or SVG from Illustrator, a rectangular border/background (transparent) gets applied, leading to this rectangle defining the mouseover area of the shape - and not the shape itself (be it a star or whatever).
WHAT I WANT: the very shape defines the mouseover area. How do I achieve this?? See examle below:
WHAT I DON'T WANT: how is is now:

I thought this was going to be a piece of cake in the new Illustrator CC but I am having a few unanticipated issues:)I need to create some vector tire images with different edges, such as the top one in the image below.So I thought this would be SO easy by simply creating a pattern brush in Illustrator and then using that for the outside. So I created the shape you see in the middle image below and created a pattern brush with this shape.I then created an ellipse and used the new brush for the outline.
All of those are open paths...it has taken the shape and applied it to the outline but has kept each shape separate, so I am not able to fill the circle in black. I could of course go in and manually join each little corner separately where the little shapes meet but this will take FOREVER with all the images I have to do.

I tried the following in Illustrator,
So basically, I created coloured text inside Adobe Illustrator and however much I zoom into the text, the text always appears to have smooth edges. Once I click on 'Save For Web', the edge all around the text becomes rough and aliased. I chose GIF and PNG, but it still happens. The text is on a transparency background. The same problem applies to images when I am creating a logo.

I'm trying to snap a head with it's neck with the merge edge tool, but somewhere along the way, the edges lost there border edge characteristics and now I can't merge the edges. Is there a way to make the edges back to the way they were?

How do I get the edges of an image I insert in paper space (either a raster or an OLE) to disappear on my printout? I tried placing them on a layer I have selected not to print (like my viewport boundaries) but the image totally disappears.

I've started drawing -modelling- with AutoCAD.
- I can create flat, curved objects,
- I know how to round-up / smoothen the edges
- Played around with Extrude, Presspull commands
- Create a template file with auto-filled fields in it and with the use of Attributes.
- etc.
Now I want to go to a next level..I've taken a picture of a Versamount which I want to model / draw in AutoCad: This poses at least the following challenges:
-There is some depth in it!
- More curves than my other drawings
My first question would be; is this a good practice or not and how to get started?My thought would be to create a flat surface in about roughly the same outer diameters as the Versamount.

How can you set by default the ''shades with edges'' visual style by default ? I always work with that visual style, I have to set it every time I open a part or assembly.

I am running 2005 ADT. In certain drawing, but not all the edges of my text appear very rough. It doesn't seem to have much effect on the plotting, but it tears at the eye and is distracting. I think its some kind of variable because it doesn't occur is every drawing.
When I open up an MTEXT editor the text looks correct.

i stuck while using autocad with following try.
i every other 3d modelling software it is possible to add new edges to a face, but i cannot find a proper function for autocad.
Following technic i try to use.
I create an cube of face and want to extrude one little rectangle. But one face is to big, for my reason and so, i want to inside a new rectangle of edges into one faces,which is in the proper size for my extrusion.
Due o this example how cani ad adges to an object??

Is it the limitation of my hardware that gets me these jagged edges or is there a way to at least make drawings with smooth lines?

I am still making some adjustments to our standard drawing template and I ran into another issue..
I want the tangent edges to be displayed automatically when I insert a drawing view rather than clicking the Display Options tab and checking the Tangent Edges box every time I make a new drawing. Is this possible? If so, how?
I tried inserting a view, checking the Tangent Edges box, then deleting my view and re-saving the template but it still went back to the default.

I found a weird thing with the command 'Project Cut Edges'. I'll explain what I did. I made a new part and added a derived part. This derived part consists of 2 beams (see top left picture in attachment) (these beams are NOT Content Center parts, but I drew the beams myself, so it would be the same if I drew just rectangles as beams). The beams are at a specified distance of each other (see top right picture in attachment). I added a sketch on the YZ Plane and clicked on 'Project Cut Edges' (see bottom left picture in attachment). I added a rectangle and extruded the rectangle. But if I click on the 'Project Cut Edges' item in the browser under Sketch (or I open the Sketch), not all the lines are there anymore. And if I make the distance between the beams smaller, the lines get shorter too (and vice versa).

We just upgraded Inventor from 2013 to 2014.
I opened a model generated in previous releases and noticed that there were parts with a strange yellow highlight.
Turns out the parts aren't explicitly highlighted, it's just that their edges are yellow. See the screenshot below.
I usually work in the 'Shaded with Edges' view style. I found that if the view style is changed to 'Shaded' or 'Realistic', the yellow disappears with the edges.
The only parts the yellow edges seem to affect are ones generated as surfaces. I would like to know how to turn the yellow off is possible. So far I've tried changing the part appearance in the toolbar and changing the surface body properties in the model tree; neither method worked.
Now I don't model in surfaces, but there have been purchased parts imported into Inventor that have in the past ended up as surfaces, and it's these parts that have the highlight. I haven't noticed anything like this in previous releases.

Looking at a side profile of a channel in a drawing, you will usually see a top and bottom edge, as well as some nominal flange thickness.
In Inventor, all you see is the top and bottom edge...because the channel's shape is really radiused on the flange.
So I turn on "Tangent Edges" in the Display Options of my view...now I see three lines representing the flange. I can manually hide the other lines, but this option creates a TON of lines in my views that I would have to manually hide.
What is the quickest and cleanest way to represent a channel without seeing a ton of extra tangent lines?

I am having issues with 3D Realistic/Conceptual Views in model space. Basically I will be working on a drawing and everything works fine when I switch to 3D realistic & conceptual modes and orbit - view looks perfect. Then a few days or maybe 10 minute later I do it again and the hidden edges suddenly are visible through 3D solids & the view looks awful. I have attached a screenshot of this issue and from reading a number of forums it appears that I am not alone in experiencing this, however I have not found a resolution. I am concerned that it could be my Graphics card but given that it is an nVidia Quadro FX3800 that is supposedly designed for ACAD I would be pretty upset! URL....
On the left is the problem in realistic view - on the right I have copied this into another file and on some drawings this fixes the issue - on some others I have to delete some background floorplans. It might be linked to the size of the drawings - I work on airport terminals so my drawings have floorplans of hundreds of meters...

In the attached file there is a single 3D solid object. But there seems to be several unconnected lines, out in space, that are part of the object, but un editable. By selecting individual edges (on the problem geometry) edges on the solid are also being selected.

I have a part that refuses to display properly in orthographic drawing views. The image below shows how it renders in a drawing. The drawing view to the left is the problematic one, the iso view to the right is just to show what the part actually looks like.
when the drawing view is updating (with the green brackets around it), the lines show just fine (see below). But they disappear as soon as the drawing is fully updated.
I have attached the offensive part and the drawing shown in the images. I tried turning on tangent edges and interference edges, but no luck.

We use wheel zoom, and you can zoom out forever, but zooming in STOPS once the view area hits the outside of the drawing/outer lines in plan view, model space.

We just switched from 2013 to 2014. I had "Shaded with Hidden Edges hotkeys to "q" in 2013,but now it's not in the
Customize menu anymore? "Shaded with Edges," is there, and my filter is set to all. I would like to have my hotkey back.

In any given shaded visual style, is there a way to select solids by their edges rather than the face? Ideally I would like to have X-Ray visual style turned on and be able to select objects in the background through objects in the foreground. This used to be possible in AutoCAD 2006, but I can't find any variable in AutoCAD 2011 to achieve this.

Inventor 2014,
I am getting display of hidden edges (in fuzzy grey with shadows, like wireframe with hidden edges) while using shaded with Edges. At first they don't display, but when I pan zoom orbit, they show up to stay. When I switch to shaded with hidded edges, the same edges turn blue. When I switch to shaded, they completely disappear. So it's the Shaded with edges view that has this problem. I have also noticed it to be random files or some unknown commonality. Files were created using Inventor 2013. I'm not running Express mode, which is much fuzzier.
I did not see this during beta testing. I have a Radeon HD 5990 (2GB) - running like a champ, Intel I7- 930, and 12GB ram running Windows 7 (ultimate) 64bit. Inventor 2013, and 2014 are both installed.
