AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Do Simple Math Without Using AutoLisp
Jun 21, 2013
I would like to know if there is a way / setting that I can turn of to where can do simple math problems when inputing numbers say for like offsetting a line without having to use AutoLisp.
For example if I was to offset a line I would type in "5.75/2" and get 2.875. I would like to be able to do this without having to type ( / 5.75 2).
Is there a way to do this without having to type all of that.
I am using AutoCad 2014, and at work we design driveline equipment so a lot of the drawings are from a front view to a section view, and for like a round cover that is in the front view it is easy to offset the centerline in the section view by the radius and continue drawing the section view.

In the foreach function can you use math like (foreach pt1 (add 1) so that foreach one you pick it adds one the next one will be named pt2 then pt3 and so on.

I port my autolisp routines to NET.A simple autolisp routine changes the UCS to another one.The change needs no regeneration and is immediate.But in NET i have to use "UpdateTiledViewportsFromDatabase".When the dwg is loaded with lots of objects it takes quite a lot of time to regen.Is there a way to have an immediate change using NET just like when using autolisp command?Also why autolisp needs no regen?

I have an autocad file with a simple rectangle in it.
The goal is to offset this rectangle 1" to the inside of the original rectangle, then delete the original rectange.
How could I go about this in autolisp??
I know I could use basic commands to bring up the offset functions, but i'm not too sure how i could write autolisp to offset in the correct direction, and the correctly delete the larger rectangle without deleting the smaller one as well.
Maybe put them on different layers? How I could achieve this?

We are implementing a new ERP system and we've programmed the configurator in it to build a price for us. We'd like to create a simple 2D drawing for us in AutoCAD based on some of the data from the configurator automatically. Is it possible using AutoCAD LT 2013 or do you need the full version to build something like this? Also, does this sound like it would require a lot of programming in CAD?

For some reason, some fluid elements of my autocad interface are all aligned to right:
[URL]........
As you can see, the command suggestion box is on the right. I don't know where is the setting to get them back to left.

I have been asked to create a simple hatch pattern but it has been years since I've done this.
My hope and assumption is the pattern already exists.

I am creating a Carbon Fiber glider. I have drawn the entire file and assembled it in autodesk inventor. How can I take each individual part and create a mold that I can CNC out? I just need a mold CAD file and then can run it through mastercam to get the G&M Code.

I have a simple catchment area that I've routed to an inlet and then to an outfall. The 10 year storm peak flow going into the inlet is 3.91 cfs and my flow in the link to the outfall is 10.55 cfs. I do not understand why it is increasing going into the pipe. I've attached the pdf results here because for some reason it won't let me attach.spf file.

I think we keep on without an annotation symbol to label the x,y and/or Z of a point ? Have I to develop our symbol ? I'm going to create my own symbol. Using attributes & dynamic behaviours I can do it.
how to get my arrow rotates (I move the box and I have - the arrow aligned with line1 and line 2 horizontal).I don't want to use parametrics, because I want to have a symbol compatible with versions prior to 2010.

I wanted to create simple shape for rectangle such that its dimensions are selected from the block table. For that purpose, I have constructed the required constrains (geometric and dimensions) and then a “block table” (attached).
As I tested the behavior to have 1X2 rectangle (attached), I got a rotated one (attached)!-

I'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.

I would like to perform a math function within a point label and have it displayed along with my point. I have a bottom of curb elevation point and would like to show the top of curb elevation as 0.5' feet greater than the flow line without inserting 2 separate points. For drafting purposes only. (ie. TC 10.50/FL 10.00 ; the TC value would be automatically derived from the FL or point elevation value.)Can math functions be performed within a label's Text Contents?

Illustrator keeps freezing when applying an effect such as texture-grain to a simple gradient, or even rasterizing a simple black circle. My system is about a 6month old macbook pro with 16gb ram, i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB. What could be causing this? It wasn't like this when i first started using the laptop but has started to do it everytime i try and do any of those simple tasks recently.

I'm having trouble finding this functionality. Is there a way to type say 3+1 into a parameter, like lengthSegs and it result in 4? Or type 1.2* in something like scale X and have it result in 1.2 times whatever the parameter value was?

Smoke 2013, ext. 1.When rendering almost anything, I get Frame x of y. Where x is substantially greater than y. i.e., frame 1236 of 900. I also get the time as negative. Don't remember any other version doing this on a regular basis.

Simply adds the two components. But this is only correct if there is no transparency involved.
Once there is transparency involved, it gets more complex. So, what is the math behind the linear dodge blending mode if the top layer has semi-transparent pixels (=alpha less than 1)?

For successive layers, all have different blend modes ... for finding the pixel values seen on screen, we should start with the bottom most layer ... isn't it?

I am just writing my math book on Corel Draw and unfortunately I could not import correctly all the information from Word, this because all those formulas which I have done in Word using the equation editor could not be transferred to Corel Draw. "How can I transfer all the math formulas written in Word to Corel Draw?"

display math equations as in-place vector OLE objects in Coreldraw 12.It looks like the Mathtype OLE in CDR saga is still not resolved, even with the latest Mathytype and Corel X5. The option to insert as a bitmap is not at all convenient - one wishes to be able to edit in-place and have vector scalability.
The work-arounds posted in various forums don't seem to work with complex mathematical symbols, adding fonts to the system doesn't seem to work, WMF/EMF also getting messed up, and so on. As Mathtype works flawlessly e.g. in MS Office and Open Office, the question is what is CDR doing...
I recently tried another program, "Aurora" [URL] , which renders *Latex* equations as vector OLE objects - quite nice (there are a couple of other Latex OLE solutions out there, but this one has the options I need). Free trial version.
Aurora supports both vector and bitmap rendering. Vector rendering works perfectly in all programs I tried, except ... Coreldraw. Choosing vector rendering shows some horrible font substitution. I tried adding the Latex fonts to the Windows system, but the problem seems to prevail (and all the other programs, e.g. Word, OO, work fine without doing this). But maybe it is just my version and system configuration.

For as long as I have been using Autocad (10 yrs), if I typed an autolisp expression (in brackets) on the command line any output from the espression was echoed to the command line.
E.g. I type (+ 2 2) on the command line and Autocad returns with 4.
I installed SP 1 for Autocad 2013 and this bevaviour ceased, i.e. 4 did not appear in the command window although it did appear on the text screen.
I then un-installed SP1 and "normal" behavior resumed.
When SP 1.1 came out I installed that and again find that I do not get the returns from autolisp functions eched to the command window, only to the text screen.
I have now uninstalled SP 1.1, which I sort of hate to do, because I use those one line Autolisp functions quite alot.
