AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing Template And Associated Files

Jan 10, 2014

I have created a drawing template for survey and I need to distribute it to the field crews and eventually put it on the server. The template contains description keys, point styles, point label styles, custom point file formats, figure styles, figure prefix database, line code sets, etc.

How do I transfer all the external files along with the drawing template? Is it a straight forward copy? Etransmit doesn't seem to do it unless additional files are manually included, but I can't figure out what files to include or where they live.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Template Drawing Which Opens On Startup

Sep 11, 2012

I am looking to change the way AutoCAD starts, in particular, the template drawing which opens on startup. 

I want to force the user to open a template rather than have one open automatically for them, as we have many different clients all with different standards.   

I tried deleting all the template files as an experiment… but somehow a blank template still loaded.  How can I force AutoCAD to make the user select a template upon initial load rather than have the default template load automatically?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copy Drawing Views To New Drawing Template

Sep 20, 2013

I've recently made a new drawing template with ilogic prompts for entering data for all fields within the template. It also sets view sizes etc.  I have lots of master drawings, which are reused when sizes etc change for a contract, which i would like to transfer to this new template. Drawing Resource Transfer Wizard does not offer this function.

I could get all drawings in a folder copied to specific sheet size on the master template.As the template will probably be developed further in the future I'm very loathed to do this take manually.

AutoCad :: Insert Template To A Drawing

Nov 29, 2012

I've created a set of templates, A3, A2, A1 A0 etc.

When I open the .dwt at A0 it is fine, the correct dimensions for A0, everything is how it should be.

Now, when I'm in a drawing and go on the tabs, right click, "From Template", select the A0 template and it opens a new tab as normal.

However, the paper size is correct, A0. But the actual frame with the attributes is very small in the cornet, about 25 times smaller, so I'm thinking units, mm to inches, but all the INSUNITS are set to 6.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Template Objects

Jun 21, 2013

On my company's default drawing template, I have a text block on there with some drawing notes. We often edit some of the notes on the end at each drawing so I didn't create it on the "title block" layer, rather it's on the "top" layer. I also added (in the template) a revision table with Rev. A being "Released for Production" (because we are weird). How can I constrain those on the sheet so when I change sheet size, they stay in the same position relative to the corners of the sheet?

AutoCad :: Title Block Template Drawing

Apr 5, 2011

I created a standard title block template drawing for my student classwork exercises, and when I constructed the title block I keyed in real dimensions to ensure the title block would completely print on a piece of 8.5 X 11 paper. Now whenever I attempt to draw a large scale drawing (say a 36" dia circle, it draws the circle well outside my title block. I know why this is happening, I just need some tips about how to allow a title block template to be constructed around my current drawing reguardless of the drawing scale.

AutoCad :: Plotting Drawing Into Prepared Template

Mar 15, 2012

My employer wants me to plot to pdf so they can print it "upstairs".

So I drew a drawing and then opened up the template he wanted me to plot it in and pasted it in there, it was way to big for the template, so I figured I would scale the drawing to make it fit - heres my problem, when I scaled it the hours I had spend dimensioning got scaled as well.

Is there a way to scale without scaling measurements? Or is there a way to alter the template before I start?

AutoCad :: Modifying A Drawing Template That Contains Several Layouts

Mar 6, 2012

I am looking at modifying a drawing template that contains several layouts (A0 to A4 size pages). We want to be able to input drawing information for the title block in one place and duplicate the information across all of the layouts without manually copying it across (in an effort to enforce 1 dwg per drawing). Looking into this, one way looks to be using dwgprops to define the text content and then use fields to populate the required parts of the title block...

My question is this: Is there any way of setting it so that when a user starts a new drawing, a prompt comes up on the screen asking for the pertinent information before the drawing is started and the user forgets to put the right info? Lsp or other means can be considered.

AutoCad :: Drawing Template Won't Insert In Layout

Apr 3, 2012

I am using Autocad 2012, I made a drawing frame template up in model space, then saved it into the DWT template folder, when I go into Layout and into insert to insert the template it will not show up.

I reloaded the DWT template back into model space and saved it as a DXF and I am able to insert the dxf template in Layout using the insert Block.

I can get the job done by using the dxf template but I would like to be able to insert the DWT template.
