AutoCAD 2013 :: PDF Attach And Viewports

Dec 5, 2013

I used pdf attach to insert a pdf into the drawing. I have a plan drawing with viewports that references the drawing file. I tried to turn off the layer in one viewport while leaving the layer turned on in another viewport but i could not get it to plot correctly. It's off in my drawing but when i go to plot its on in all viewports. What is the reason that this happens? my plan file is too large i may have to post it seppartly

I'm trying to attach a DWG file to my post but it is appearing not to let me. Shouldn't I be able to attach that type of file? Or is there another file type I should be using?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Qleader Won't Attach To Mtext

Feb 22, 2013

I have an older drawing that was created by somebody else that is chock full of bad CAD.  I have to add some leaders to some text and I'm using the "QLeader" command.  For some odd reason when I implement "QLATTACH" it won't attach the leader to the text.  

Yes, I could recreate the text with the Qleader command but I'm trying to avoid having to do that because there is a lot of text.  I'm not a fan of the rigidness of Mleader either so that is not an option.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Unable To Attach Or Link OLE Objects

Dec 10, 2013

I have an equipment list on excel 2013, that I can't insert into my AutoCad (2014) drawing.  I've tried using paste special, paste link, using both as excel work book and as an autocad table. I have a wide variety of problems with both. Pasting as autocad table sometimes it wont update, when I try to update the link it locks up the drawing. When I paste as excel workbook it doesn't plot, although it show on plot preview. Is there a memory setting that has to be changed on autcad I have 12 gigs of memory on my computer.

AutoCad :: 2013 Polyline Extension Won't Attach At Right Place?

Jan 22, 2013

I am so frustrated about one thing that has been changed in the newest version (2013)

Before, in PL command, 2D, I could point my marker at one snap point on a line for example, then I drag my marker to one direction towards where I want the Polyline to start. I write in an number (ex. 1000 mm) for the distance from the snap point, and ENTER it. The polyline starts now 1000 mm from the snap point I chose.

NOWADAYS it attaches in an RANDOM, and for me, inappropriate place on the current drawing when I ENTER the distance

Is it some settings I have to change to get this as it was in the 2012 version?

when it comes to viewports in paperspace in 2013, due to the nature of my work i have several layout drawings all drawn on top of each other and all with ther own txt and dims etc, which again is all on top of each other making it impossible to work in model space, for this reason i work in paperspace within a viewport but now i have upgraded to 2013 while i am in mid command e.g. dimension and zoom into first point then zoom back out and in again to second point, by this time i have been kicked out of the viewport and just in paperspace so cant complete the command, doesnt always happen?

On one of my drawings which was created by someone else, the viewports don't have boxes around them.

I want to expand it to bring in detail which is bigger now.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Freezing Layers In Viewports

Feb 6, 2013

I'm working with alot of overlapped x-refs and every layer for each x-ref will come in to the drawing. When I'm using the viewports I need to freeze all the layers for some x-refs that don't need to show in that viewport. Since each x-ref has well over 70 layers I am wondering if there is a simple way to freeze all the x-ref layers in the viewport.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Unable To Copy Viewports

Oct 9, 2013

So in the last week or so, my C3D 2014 randomly decided not to copy viewports.  It copies the box, but nothing in it.  Plus you can't go into model space in the copied viewport.  Just looks and acts like a normal rectangular polyline.  But when you check the properties, it still says it is indeed a "Viewport" object. 

Short of reinstalling the software, any setting that would cause this?

AutoCAD 2013 :: New Layer VP Frozen In All Viewports

Apr 24, 2012

When hovering over this button in the layer manager the following is displayed.

"Creates a new layer and freezes it in all existing layout viewports. This button is accessible from the model tab or layout tabs".

Key words here being EXISTING and LAYOUT viewports.  So I've got an existing xref attached to an existing layout and per the displayed tip this means, to me, any new layer created within the xref that has this option enabled will be frozen in all existing layouts.

Since a layout is a viewport, I assume this means the layout itself, not a viewport object used for viewing modelspace content from a layout.

Even if this means a viewport object used for viewing modelspace content, that doesn't work either, so what exactly is the point of this feature?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Deselect In Viewports When Panning?

Sep 13, 2012

I have an issue when working in paper space in an active viewport. As a quick change i want to move a few items and im zoomed in to do so. Problem is, when i select some items, then pan with the 3rd button on the mouse to select more items, it deselcts all the items i previously just selected.

Is there a fix or something i need to change in options for this? In AutoCAD 2011 there is no problem, but my upgrade to 2013 has the issue and its such a pain, i've reverted to the old program.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Viewports Not Plotting Properly?

Apr 27, 2013

I've been messing around with a 3D drawing trying to get it to plot properly. I have 4 viewports on the layout, and the issue is that parts of the viewport are being mysteriously chopped off, as if some great big white box is covering part of the viewport. This is definitely not an issue with printer margins - this is occuring in the middle of the page.

I've deleted all the viewports and created new ones, but the drawing is still being cut off in the same locations. 20 sheets of A3 and most of the day later.

AutoCAD 2013 :: 3D Drawing - Views In Viewports Not Stable?

Jan 7, 2013

I have 3D drawing. I put camera's in several places and situations. In viewports I choosed a camera in every viewport. They work nice so long the drawing is open. When I close the drawing after saving it ofcourse. When I open it again , the viewports jump to SOUTH-EAST. and I have to rearrange the view of the cammera again. Although I used the command UCSFOLLOW to solve this, but it did not work.

PS. that happens only in the viewports which based on camera's. The views in other viewports which are not based on camer's, stay without chaning or jumping.

Every once and a while when I open up a dwg, autocad will load with what looks like two viewports in my model space tab. The bottom viewport is not clickable and the top viewport is very thin and is the one I am able to move around in. I would like to get this to stop.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Viewports In Same Layout Showing Different Drawings?

May 22, 2013

Is it possible to show two different viewports in the same layout that show views from two different drawings?  So one viewport would show a section of the current drawing's modelspace, and the second viewport would show a a section of modelspace from another drawing? (and possibly update automatically like an XREF?)  Or would the easiest way be to just XREF both drawings into a new drawing, and then show viewports from them in the new drawing?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Pixelated Objects Within Viewports Created With Viewbase

Nov 8, 2012

The new VIEWBASE tool(s) are pretty cool but I have noticed that the solid objects in the viewports that are created by VIEWBASE tool/command display and plot pixelated. I have changed many normal settings like VIEWRES, WHIPARC, ISOLINES... without any improvement. I did notice that there is a property in the property palette called "Shade Resolution" that I am wondering if it might control this setting. The only thing is that I can't change its value from the properties palette.

I did compare the difference between a normal viewport and one that is created by the VIEWBASE command and the  normal viewports display the objects smoothly (see the last picture below)

1) How to fix the pixelation issue?
2) Does this property control the pixelation issue?
3) How do you change this prop

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Layout Ribbon Tab With Both Viewports And Modeldoc?
