I cannot export my .dwg file in other formats!! i want to save in .sat format or .iges... when i do export it does not get saved nor give any indication that it has been exported..
View 9 Repliesthe maya 2014 Version I am running is not able to export and import IGES formats.
OBJ and FBX is working though.
how to fix this?
I've been attempting to export geometry (which I believe is in the proper format) out of AutoCAD 2013 to the .iges (or .igs) solid body model format with no luck. I found the instructions in the AutoCAD documentation but when I try and execute, no luck. I do get the mandatory "1 object found that "fits the file type format requirements" dialogue so again I'm pretty sure that I'm doing things correctly.
Do I need a special plug-in? Here is the info on this type of export: Click Output tabSend panelExport.In the IGES Export Data dialog box, in the Files of type box, select IGES (*.igs, *.iges).In the File Name box, specify the name of the IGES file.Click Save.Select the objects to export and press ENTER to begin the export process.When export is finished, a notification bubble is displayed.
I don't even get the IGES Export Data dialog box to show up..
each attempt to save as or publish / plot to DWF in Autocad 2014 fails (Device not found) other than the device what am i missing?
tried from the Output tab on the ribbon as well as the application icon save as , publish, and plot all with the same result

i need to export Geometry Data (in properties) X,Y,Z coordinates/points from a Sold 3D object into Excel (csv.file) I have tried data extraction (EATTEXT) but it doesn’t pick the points up unless I add points manually.

I am trying this to see if Autocad is the solution I need to turn all my 3D files into IGES and STL. What basic blunder I am making?

Is there an option to keep the sculpting and painting layers intact?
Is it possible to export IGES files from .NET or lisp?

What i do today is, i make a new part and derive the .iam file and then export it to step but this is getting hard to do when you have many .iam files.
I´m trying to write a script to convert all the blocks in a drawing to mass elements and export them to IGES thereafter.
I would like to select everything first. Then launch refedit and select all the blocks.
After that I would like to convert them to mass elements. When saving to IGES I would need to select everything again.
I pieced the following script together, but it fails. I think it is bexause of the request to select objects manually. Could I add a delay which would enable me to select an object?
Also it looks like ACADA is not accepting the "all" command when pselect is called by a script.

I have modeled a human character with NURBS and I have to export it to a CAD system (Autodesk Inventor) using the IGES-format. So I can't use any fileformats based on polygons.
When exporting to IGES all colors of the model get lost, but the geometry is OK. I don't use any shaders, textures or complex materials. I would like to use simple object colors / vertex colors.
how to preserve the colors in IGES? Are there any export plugins available that support colors in IGES?
as a casual user of maya, i regularly import .iges files from other 3D modelling programs. in past versions (specifically maya 2011), the .iges import/export bundle was located under the plug-in manager; however, i cannot locate this in maya 2012.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to import a simple IGES file into vanilla Autocad. I found the IGESIMPORT command and I can get the geometry to import. The issue I am having is that the geometry is importing as splines. Even if the geometry is a straight line, it is imported as a spline. Perfect arcs also import as splines and I can't find a way to convert them.
In Autocad Mechanical, I can use the IGESIN command and the geometry imports as regular lines and arcs. I'm working with a customer that doesn't have access to Autocad Mechanical and trying to find a solution for them with vanilla Autocad.
So I have 25 years 3d CAD experience. Catia, Alias, Ford PDGS.I have spent 20 hours on Inventor 2013. Great program. Very intuitive. Have been banging out models easily.
My issue however is a Client has given me sone .stp's and Iges files to work with.They open fine as a .iam The issue is saving. I have the project folder setup, go to save.
I Get the "do you want to save changes to "XXXXXXXX.iam" and all its dependants.I select "yes to all".I get the "Yes" under the "Save" Column for all listed .ipt's...I hit OK.......Autodesk attempts to save.
...Then I get the dialogue box up with ! icons "The system cannot find the path specified" - The database in C:Users.........xxxx.ipt could not be saved
I started to convert ACAD blocks to mass elements in order to convert them to IGES.
I need to import AutoCAD 3D objects to Factory Design Suite. The conversion takes
quite some time on my 1230V2 Xeon and I wondered if I could reduce the precision of
the conversion in order to speed things up?
All the Options like facetdev don´t apply to the conversion but to the view in ACAD only.
i have imported a IGES file from Catia to Softimage 2012, i am not able to export it to 3dsmax 2012, if i do this through fbx, obj or other formats mesh is tearing,

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been migrating dozens and dozens of .pat files from one version of AutoCAD to the next for many, many versions. Most recently in AutoCAD 2013 the .pat files were stored in the C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013SupportPatterns - worked fine. During the migration to 2014 I received an install error report stating that this subdirectory did not exist and could not be created. Alternately it stated that the new default path C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupport will be used instead.
At first I created the Patterns subdirectory where it could not be done automatically. No luck. Then I placed the Patterns subdirectory in C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupportPatterns and no luck.
Happens every year. Upgrade and spend half a day or more trying to get everything back to the way I had it. All I have is a couple small toolbars for commands that are several clicks deep in the ribbons and I want them "right there" all the time.
I thought Autodesk 360 might be a good tool for this. All it did was DOWNLOAD some old settings and destroy one of the toolbars I'd created. They really need an override in there to specify upload, download, overwrite or don't.
I'm trying to migrate (I guess that's the technical term) my settings from 2013 Mechanical to 2014 Mechanical. It's probably too late already, after 360 did its deal, but I really want to get this down so we don't go through it every year anymore.
I maintain that PTC had this part of it down Pro/ENGINEER. You had a config file that was editable plain text.

I have just updated to Map3D 2014 and work in 2D Drafting Workspace. In 2013, the export button was located in the Map Drafting tab, Map Output panel. In earlier versions it was under output tab as map 3d export. However, its position in 2014 from 2013 has been replace by a "To FDO Connection". it directs me to the older location of under the output tab - map data transfer - map 3d output, however this does not seem to exist. The only panels I have there are Plot and Export to DWF/PDF, no map data transfer. I can find it if I switch to Map Drafting Workspace in the Map Drafting pulldown - inport/export - export, or if I use the command "mapexport", but from both it only asks where and what to name the file and what type (shp, tab, etc), and then the routine stops and goes back to the drawing instead of opening the dialog to select objects, etc. Some of my clients insist on shp files.

In Inventor 2014, is it possible to export a list of all of the materials in a given material library..? As text, or into Excel, or something similar?
I have a material library in Inventor 2014 containing lots of custom defined materials. I would like to create a master list that I can give to someone who isn't using Inventor. The only property that I really need to export is the material name, e.g.' CSA G40.21-44W'.
In this case, engineering is trying to coordinate better with purchasing, by making sure that materials are specified in the same way in both departments.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am having problems opening an idw created in the 2013 version on my inventor professional 2014.
The idw contains its own template, views, dimensions, details and cuts.
Upon opening in 2014 to release details of the scale is changed randomly and the views are out of the leaf.
i made some 3d modelling in autocad 2014 in the 3d drawing mode but i have some difficulty in modifying the dimensions of the subobjects.
1 method that i already know is to use the scale gizmo which works but not much as i am not able to set the exact dimensions i need. it only scales the subobject according to the previous size.
modify and determine the exact dimensions of the sub-objects.
