AutoCad :: Export Polyface Mesh Coordinates

Oct 26, 2011

I have a series of Polyface meshes imported from a Revit project.

(If this is doable straight from Revit that'd be good too, but I haven't had any success with that)

If I right click on one and select properties, I can clearly see where each vertex has an X, Y, and Z coordinate. For the purposes of a research project, I'd like to be able to automatically export all these coordinates to any ascii format for input into an algorithm. The dataextraction command does not seem to be capable of this and only exports the number of faces and vertices of each mesh.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Different X / Y Coordinates In One DWG?

Jul 11, 2013

I am extracting the data form my blocks in CSV file with the dataextraction function, but the problem is that my block is located at lets say X,Y(10,10) and in the CSV table shows X,Y(40000,40000).

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cut Object With Mesh?

Sep 25, 2013

I have surface (that appears to be watertight) that I created with meshlab. I would liek to import it to AutoCAD and create a solid where this surface is cut out of it (e.g. I'd be left with a imprint that looks like the surface).

What I've done so far:

- I've exported a dxf file from Meshlab.

- It's unopenable by AutoCAD, so I import into SketchUp and export as dwg, whcih can now be opened by AutoCAD.

- I've tried convtosolid to try to convert the mesh to a solid. Additionally, subtract doesn't quite work.

I suspect this is related to the type of object the imported dwg is (is it a mesh or a surface?). how to proceed with my goals.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Export Coordinates From DWG Or IGS?

Jan 17, 2013

We are a couple of students just starting at our finale thesis at the university. We got some problems that we can't find a resolution to. 

We are going to use Ultramarine MOSES to simulate a ship. We got the drawings as 2d construction lines (.dwg) and 3d (.igs) of the ship, and need all the coordinates, x,y,z of all lines, to the coding in MOSES.

Our problem is to get these coordinates from autocad. We have tried to open the dwg in autocad and use dataextraction to get the coordinates without any sucess. We have also tried the igs without any sucess there as well.

I have a cad-model in a .dwg file (I have attached the file to this post) and I want to export its x,y - coordinates to excell or a text file. Is there some way I can do that from DWG TrueView?  I normally just use Autocad Inventor so if there is a way to export the coordinates from there.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Make A Polygon Mesh

Sep 17, 2013

I'm trying to import an autocad file into sap2000. The element i need to import has to be a solid. I know that sap2000 accepts elements called polygon mesh (i received a test file, and under properties of the object, that is what is said).

how to make a polygon mesh? what is the function called? I've tried MESH but i don't think its the same thing.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Paste To Original Coordinates

Mar 5, 2013

I am trying to use the command PASTEORIG and it does not work for me in AutoCAD 2013 or Civil 3D 2013. Is this a known issue with a fix or am I missing something here?

I know for the longest time to paste to original cooridinates you had to select an object and right click and paste by using the menu. I also used to create a keyboard shortcut that let me use Ctrl+Shift+V, but now these workarounds do not work either. It echos the command on the command line, but does nothing, not even a returned error.

This is a pretty significant issue when working in the Civil field.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Converting Coordinates From None To Ll84?

Jul 18, 2013

I just finished a project without using any coordinate system (it shows none), and now i need it to be in ll84 coordinate system. Is there a way to convert it? When i try to do it, the streets go to a random location (in a random longitude and latitude), and even if i move it to the right place it doesnt work, because the scale of the drawing doesnt seem to be right, and i cant manage to fix it.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Toggle Between Coordinates And Last Input

How do I get the last input to come up when pressing the up arrow key?  Say I'm drawing a line & input @10,10.  When I press the up arrow, the coordinates come up.  How do I get @10,10 to come up?  I've changed it before, but I can't remember how & I can't think of what to search for.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Mesh Modeling Not Functioning Properly

Feb 19, 2013

view the screen capture video here: [URL]

Basically, I create a simple mesh primitive box.  I set the selection filter to vertex, and select all vertices on one side of the box.  If the selection of all vertices actually registers, it simply moves the entire object, not just the vertices selected.  I've tried this in all directions, and the same thing happens..  Other times, it chooses to only move one of the vertices, a result I cannot reliably reproduce -- it just sort of "happens".    Scale and Rotate all function normally.

This is happening for me in Civil 3D 2011 as well as Civil 3D 2013.  I launched "Civil 3d 2013 as Autocad", and this problem doesn't seem to happen.  Also, in "Civil 3d 2013 as Autocad", the vertex nodes all select as red, not as blue as seen in the screencast link.  I spend all my time in Civil 3D, and would like to find out why this is happening so I don't have to constantly switch platforms.

This has also been posted over in the Civil 3D group, but since it's a regular "Autocad" entity, I was hoping to have more luck here.

I'm running Win7 Pro, 16GB ram, 2.67 Ghz 8 core processor and latest service packs on everything.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Relative Coordinates Are Not Working In UCS Origin

Sep 17, 2012

I noticed that relative coordinates are not working in UCS Origin in Autocad 2013.

I used to create an UCS according to a mesh of coordinates (North/East). To do that I first aligned the UCS to the North axis and point the origin to known coordinates (this part is working). Then I created a new UCS using relative coordinates, like "non @ -286200,-7485500".

This relative coordinates entry are not working anymore in this version of Autocad (2013).

A way to automatically output a point into a table. For instance having a table searching for a specific block reference or point inside a block or external reference and submitting this into a table with x,y coordinates?

I make a lot of civil drawings and sometime i need to list up relevant coordinates. In stead of manually plotting these in a table i would like to list them up automatically.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Mesh To Solid Panels With Mitered Joints

Aug 7, 2013

I have a project where I have got a drawing from an architect which is drawn as a mesh.

I consists of triangular panels which is joined together with different angles. (see attachment)

I have tried to model it in 3d with autocad, but I can`t get the joints to be precise.

I am going to produce this panels with our cnc-router in a 12 mm mdf board.

The panels has to be mitered in the joints.

I have the following questions:

Is it possible in autocad, to model this figure and separate each panel, with the correct angles on the edges?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Template To Convert Coordinates Into Script

Jul 9, 2013

I have been tasked with trying to create some type of template (or multiple templates, if needed) to convert my coordinates (some having straight lines and some having arcs) into a script file. I will be gathering the coordinates from an excel file then linking them to my script file.

My problem is, I have hundreds of sets of coordinates (all with varying arcs and straight lines and varying order in which arcs and lines are used) in which I'm trying to establish a method to convert to a script file. Also, the total number of lines (arcs and straight) vary. Some have as little as 10 lines and some contain as many as 20 lines total.

I have successfully created a script file using one set of coordinates but can't imagine doing this hundreds of times over.    I have attached a PDF file showing an example of the coordinates along with the radii (in some cases there is no radius, therefore must be a straight line) and how I can accomplish this without creating a script file for each and every set of coordinates I have. The example I have is only a small portion of what I am working with.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Align Command - Coordinates Exported Are Different To Those In Drawing

Nov 19, 2013

I am using the ALIGN command to overlay two groups of blocks, I'm then using some VBA code to export the coordinates of the blocks to an excel sheet to make comparisons.

The issue I'm having is when I use the ALIGN command the coordinates exported are different to those in the drawing (but only for those moved using the ALIGN command).

I don't get this issue when I use the move, rotate and mirror commands, only ALIGN. What may be causing this?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Blocks Insert At Different Coordinates From Those Entered In Command Line

Jul 10, 2012

I am testing using script files to automate inserting blocks for As-Built drawings. My script files run fine, but AutoCAD is placing the blocks at a location that is different than what the input on the command line shows. For instance, I am placing a block at (6,6), which is reflected in the command line, but the block is actually placed at (6,5.898). The 5.898 does not appear anywhere in my script file, and the command line even shows that (6,6) was entered for the insertion point.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Base View Doesn't Show Anything And Jumps To 0,0,0 Coordinates

Dec 30, 2013

I created multiple base views and projected views on drawing (autocad 2014). suddenly when I create base view it doesn't show anything, jumps to 0,0,0 coordinates (it is fixed can't be changed), scale can't be changed. It shows it is drawing view in properties, however when I want to edit (click edit then select the view , it won't recognize it is view). I created many views without problem, now all base views jumps to 0,0,0 coordinates....

(pic 1 )- shows the usless view

pic 2 - shows previous view without any issues

AutoCAD Inventor :: Matching Mesh Of Hole / Mesh Of Round Bar

Apr 9, 2012

I have an assembly that has somewhere a hole with a round bar that exactly fits in this hole. But when meshing the assembly, the mesh of the hole and the mesh of the bar are different.

The result is that the different parts do only seem to touch each other at the edges of the mesh, resulting in high stresses.

See picture.

I tried to made a derived part from the assembly, but that one does not finish meshing. After 48 hours, the progress bar is still half way. While the one above did finish in about 15 minutes. What can I do to make the meshes match?

AutoCad :: Converting Northing And Easting Meters Coordinates To Map Coordinates
