AutoCAD 2013 :: Quick Properties Not Recognising Objects When Selected

Aug 6, 2012

I'm having a minor issue with Autocad 2013 at the moment. I use the Quick Properties box to change a lot of my object properties, but since changing from 2012 to 2013, I have noticed QP doesn't recognise the selection of any objects.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Properties And Quick Properties Not Displaying Information For Objects

Jul 10, 2012

When I select any object, my quick properties tab is blank and my properties tab doesn't register anything.  Also, I get an error message when I go into my CUI to try to modify the quick properties tab.   Pretty frustrating. I've attached a couple of images for reference.  I've repaired, re-installed and unistalled and re-installed and still have the same probelm.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Quick Selected Blocks Don't Display But Their Properties Do

Oct 30, 2012

I am trying to get back some of my work that was "lost" when a crash accured. I had 16 blocks (all the same) inserted into my map at the correct locations. I recovered the drawing but noticed that the blocks weren't displaying. I conducted a quick select for the layer which they're on; it stated 16 items were selected (but they are not displaying). While they are still "selected" I checked the properties & it stated all the correct information (quantity, block name, color, layer, scale, etc...). I made sure all layers associated with the block were not frozen. So it's acting as though they're still in the drawing, but aren't displaying...

AutoCAD 2013 :: Quick Properties Box Not Displaying?

May 14, 2012

I am having trouble with getting the quick properties box to display.  I have turned the feature on at the bottom taskbar, and tried Ctrl+Shift+P, and changed settings so that it displays to the top-right of the cursor, but I get nothing when I select any object.  It used to work on 2012 but not now.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Quick Properties Area For Polylines

Nov 12, 2013

Have recently upgraded to 2014 and can no longer get the AREA of a closed polyline in quick properties.  It is no longer an option when customising the quick properties information. I know you can measure area in a number of ways but it was very handy to click on a closed polyline and have the area of that object come up in the Quick Properties window.

how to get the Area of a closed polyline in Quick Properties for 2014?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2013 Quick Properties And Extra Clicks

Jul 13, 2012

With QP activated, if I select an object (say an alignment or profile view) on the screen and want to pick its GRIP, I have to click the screen FIRST to get focus back to the drawing window (so two clicks). The same applies to the contextual Ribbon, it takes two clicks to 'press' a ribbon button if QP is activated.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Move Selected Objects By Value Of Their X Or Y Properties

Nov 23, 2012

I need a program to move some selected text to a line something like as extend command but for text objects!

suppose that there is a horizental line (y=constant) or vertical line (x=constant) and some selected text(or other objects), I want a lisp program that move these selected text (or objects) by their "insertion point" to this line.

in other word, if the selected base line is horizental (y=constant) then property of "Y" of all selected text should change to line's "Y"; and if selected base line is vertical (x=constant) then value of "X" of all selected text should match to line's "X" value.

for example, for base vertical line (x=constant) and 3 selected text(or can be any object) result is:

text1.          |                        text1.|

  text2.        |         ===>       text2.|

    text3.      |                        text3.|

|  .text1                                 |.text1

|    .text2                ===>       |.text2

|      .text3                             |.text3

AutoCAD 2013 :: Properties Palette Not Working With Selected Object?

Aug 22, 2013

as the subject states, at some point (I believe after uninstalling autodesk 360), our properties tool pallete will not populate info for the selected object.  is there a fix other than re-installing from scratch?  The installation fixer didn't work, and I've had to re-install twice now for other issues with the software, so it's getting very costly/time consuming to just re-install for these problems.

AutoCad :: Attributes Not Displaying In Properties Tab Or Quick Properties

Jun 11, 2013

I finally got some Lisp scripts working. They generate a block library from a CSV file. The script reads the file, and generates a simple rectangular block based on dimensions on the line. I have another script that can read a csv of block names and values, and add these as attributes to the block.

The attributes added are simple, like "weight" and "max stack qty". I would like to be able to see these values in the properties tab or in quick properties. In my CUI I have "Display Custom Attributes" checked under "block reference".

However, when I select a block, no attributes show up. I can get it to show me things like "name" and all of the scaling values, just no attributes.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Add Custom Properties To Objects

Aug 13, 2013

Is there any (non programming) solution where I can add custom data/properties to objects in plain AutoCAD?

(I know I can in Civil 3D though, using Notes/Extended Properties etc etc)

We want to allow users to add their own unique ID to all their drawn objects, and we don't want to use Entity Handle as that is not anything we can choose  ;-)

We're using that ID to connect other datasources (ODBC) to Navisworks and we would like it to work even from AutoCAD, even though we have Civil 3D inhouse.

using plain AutoCAD straight out of the box?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Batch Conversion Of All Or Selected Blocks To Mass Objects?

Sep 30, 2013

I need to export many library elements (conveyors) which are saved in individual blocks to mass objects. I need to convert them to IGES after that.

Until now I have to open every single block and convert all of it to a mass element. This simply takes too long.

Is it possible to write a small script or program which converts all blocks or the selected blocks to mass elements?

AutoCAD LT :: 2014 - Properties Box Does Not Display Properties Of Selected Object

Jun 6, 2013

I recently upgraded from LT2013 to LT2014. I never had any issues with 2013, but now seem to be battling with 2014. My OS is Windows 7 Home edition.

When selecting an object and then clicking the properties menu, the properties of the selected object are not displayed, but instead the properties of the selected layer are shown.

In the attached screenshot:

1) My active layer is "AM_VIEWS".

2) The layer of the object that is selected is "MEDIUM".

3) The properties dialog box shows the properties of my active layer and not the selected object.

I am therefore unable to override any settings of the selected object and manually change settings e.g. Linetype, Linetype scale etc.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Properties For AEC Objects Not Displaying In Properties Palette?

Jan 16, 2012

A user showed me today that she cannot see any properties for a wall, door, or other AEC object in the Properties palette.

Some options like height, width, etc. are shown, but not layer, style, etc. from the General portion of the Basic tab.

Is this going to be a reinstall scenario or is there a fix for this?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Customize Quick Properties

Nov 23, 2012

I use Quick Properties in static mode mostly for counting objects and quickly seeing the length of lines and polylines. These lengths are listed in feet and inches. Would it be possible to add an additional length item to the quick properties menu which shows the inches/decimal length? Would be awesome as I wouldn't then have to do the math to convert to inches.

AutoCad :: How To Transfer Over Quick Properties Functionality In PDF / DWF

Sep 27, 2012

Is there a way to have the AutoCAD "Quick Properties" pop up functionality be transferred over after the dwg is converted into pdf or dwf?

I want to avoid clutter in the dwg file but would like to have an ability for my field crew to either hover over or click the blocks or AutoCAD objects in the pdf file to know the block attributes or properties of objects.

The desire is to have a functionality very similar to creating yellow sticky notes in Adobe Acrobat Professional where the sticky balloons or call outs can collapse or even disappear if you do not want to see them.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Change Number Of Lines In Quick Properties Box

May 2, 2012

My quick properties palette is only showing about 4 lines...(actually about 4.2 lines - explained below)

I've already changed the minimum number of rows to 20, under 'Palette Behavior', under 'Quick Properties', 'Drafting Settings', and' Tools'.

I've closed and reopened Autocad several times since i've set this, but QP box will still not show more than 4 complete lines.

I've also gone to the CUI and changed the number of attributes i want to show for each different kind of entity, so i know it's not because i dont have enough lines to show....in fact, i can see a bit of the next line....i just can't drag the window any bigger!
