AutoCAD 2013 :: Unreferenced Xref When 2012 Drawing Open

Oct 29, 2012

Just got the upgrade from 2012 to 2013 AutoCAD. When I opened the file from 2012 to 2013 for editing, my sub-xref  file become "Unreferenced". The main Xref is loaded and fine. I tried to reload it but it doesn't work, and only its text path that are shown in there. It seems that the sub-xref  file is in the right path when I trying to verify it location. So, what I did was use my old 2010 Autocad to finish my task which work fine. Why my sub-xref is in "unreference"condition using 2013 AutoCAD.?

AutoCAD Architecture :: 0-width Walls From 2008 Hidden In 2012?

Sep 24, 2012

I have drawings that were made in AutoCAD Architecture 2008 that when opened in AutoCAD Architecture 2012, the 0-width walls in the drawing don't show up anymore. The only solution I found was to change the Base Height in the properties of the wall (which I accessed by choosing the zdiagnostics display setting) to 10' instead of the standard 1/2" that we normally use. 

I'm guessing it has to do with the wall styles as they were transferred from out 2008 to our 2012 template.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change VB Code To Open 2013 Instead Of 2012?

May 14, 2012

I am copying chunks of code from the My First Plugin tutorial and am using the code that opens Inventor to start the form.  I have both Inventor 2012 and 2013 installed on my system.  I have gone in to the properties and changed the .dll reference file to read out of the bin/PublicAssemblies folder in 2013, however, when I run my Windows Form, it will open Inventor 2012 instead.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Tool Palettes - Moved From 2008 To 2012- Palette Can't Find Block

May 31, 2013

tool palettes from a directory called ACAD2008 to ACAD2012. Tool palettes can't find the associated blocks because the support path still points to the ACAD200 Directory.

Is there a way to "globally" change the associated path? There are too many blocks to think about changing each one manually.

AutoCAD LT :: 2008 Not Response To Press Button Open Or Print?

May 14, 2012

For some days when I press the open button or print button on the toolbar, Autocad LT 2008 does not respond until after two or three minutes and opens the window.

I noticed that this only happens when I have enabled LAN. The "plotter" that I use is shared by a print server and when I hit the open button, the default folder that shows me a folder on the server.

Sep 7, 2012

I'm trying to update a template which has custom drawing properties.  In AutoCad LT 2012 (and obviously full autocad) there is an UPDATEFIELD command which updates the drawing properties.

This command is not known in my version of AutoCad LT 2008.  Is there another command I can use?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Opening Drawing In 2010 That Was Created In Map 2008

Oct 14, 2013

I recently upgraded from map 2008 to civil 3d 2010.  Whenever I open a drawing that was last saved/used in my map 2008 program, it freezes upon opening and tells me there are errors.  If I ignore the problem, I can continue to open and work on drawing, but every time I open it up, I get the errors and the freeze.  Is there something I can do in civil 3d 2010 that will bypass whatever is freezing it up?  I have included a drawing that is freezing up in civil 3d 2009 and/or 2010 that was created with map 08

AutoCAD 2013 :: Can't Open Saved DWG Drawing

Feb 22, 2013

I'm in AutoCAD 2013. I've been working on a drawing everyday (was just working on it yesterday), but can't open it now. I just get a blank gray screen when I open if from within AutoCAD. When I open it from my computer drive while AutoCAD is closed, AutoCAD opens and I get "Drawing1.dwg." I've tried the RECOVER command, but I don't get a response. I tried RECOVERALL command which let me choose a file to recover, but it responded saying it could not recover the drawing.

I'm doing a program in Visual Basic 2010. In one of the forms I put a button that when clicked must open AutoCAD 2012 and make a drawing in it. The user will decide where to save it.The steps are these:

1. I added the references Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop and Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common to the Visual Basic Project. That's OK.

2. I wrote this in the heading of the form's

- Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop

AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing Fails To Open After Crash

Nov 19, 2013

A colleague was working on a drawing yesterday in AutoCAD 2013 when it crashed. Since then the drawing has refused to open in AutoCAD 2013. It also does not open Trueview. It will however open in previous version of AutoCAD. We tried to export it to .dxf as well but they are corrupt. We also tried to attach it to a new drawing as an Xref and as a block, both were met with an instant fatal error and the closure of AutoCAD.

We have tried auditing, purging, resaving, using backs-ups. None of them will open in AutoCAD 2013 any more. The drawing closes without attempting to open with no error messages. It just loads up the default drawing(x).dwg.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2008 Data Shortcuts Imported Into 2013

Dec 17, 2013

We are in the middle of upgrading from C3D 2008 to C3D 2013 and are having problems with the data shortcuts. It appears that in 2013 you have to specify a data shortcut project folder and within that folder would be folders for individual projects. In 2008, we just put the data shortcuts within each specific project folder now that we have started working on projects that were setup in 2008, I am not seeing how in the heck we can access or create references to those existing shortcuts. I know we have skipped 5 versions of acad, but I would hope there would be a way to import or access existing project data.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2008 Land Desktop Companion Drawing Orientation Label?

Aug 15, 2012

Typically at my company we rotate our drawing orientation under the Projects - Drawing Setup - Orientation. Rotate the drawing to a known basis of bearings. Then we label the boundary and the bearings are rotated to match the basis of bearings without having to rotate the drawing in model space. Just reciently my labels havne't been holding the orientation. So when I add a static or dynamic label the bearing reads as though my orientation is due north. BUT, when I loook at the line priperties, the bearing is correct, as it has held the orientation.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Older (10) Version Drawing Set Open In 2013

Dec 26, 2012

I have drawings (some with more than one sheet) from inventor 10. Now I like to open it in inventor 2013. The first sheet is showing, but I can't open the other sheets. I can print them, but I can see a listing of it or go to the sheet.

FYI, until December 2012 I worked in Inventor 10, now I have inventor 2013, so everything is new to me.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Moved Open Drawing Command?

Jun 1, 2012

I don't understand why the right click - open drawing command had to be put in a submenu. Is there a way to customize the commands on these right click menus other than the marking menu? I don't really like the marking menu, and I don't want to put it there. There was nothing wrong with where it was... There are so many commands in the basic right click menu that a good majority of inventor users don't use. At least give us the ability to customize this.
