AutoCAD 2013 :: Relative File Path For DXE?
Jul 6, 2012I am trying to write a standard scrpit file for a data extraction using -EATTEXT. I plan for others to use this script file on different computers, so I will not be able to put in a full file path; it will need to remain relative. Unfortunately, AutoCAD will not recognize a relative file path entered into the command line for -EATTEXT.

Jul 11, 2012I have many drawings that were created with the xref's as full path and I need them to be relative path. I would just go in and reatch them as relative path but the drawings are complete and there are different layers frozen in each one.

Nov 12, 2012I have found a way to convert FULL to RELATIVE using XRP2004.lsp but not the other way round. Main reason I want to do this is to change the Relative to Full, move the drawing and then revert them back to Relative.

Sep 6, 2013I've been trying to install autocad but seem to fail because of my installation path?
I'm pretty confused of the fact that the installation path is not my default folder and when I tried to change it back, there's no way to do so. I've attached a copy of what's happening whenever I try to install it to have a better understanding of the issue. I thought it was my computer at first, but I checked all my settings and my installation path is steadily in (C folder..however autocad aims to be installed in a different path (D and then freezes. I clicked on all 3 options at the bottom (Installation - system requirements...) but nothing allows me to change back my path folder so that the installation can take place.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Change Default Setting For Array Path Command?

AutoCad :: Relative Path For References?
Mar 2, 2012Whenever I use "attachimage" within a drawing, I specify relative path. I would assume that if I open the file on another computer, AutoCAD would be able to find the image as long as it is in the same folder as the DWG file. This is never the case. I always get an error message stating that the reference is missing and it asks if I want to update its location. What good is specifying a relative path then? I'm using AutoCAD 2010.

Feb 7, 2011I am using autocad 2011. I am trying to attach a drawing as a xreg with a relative path. It keeps giving me relative path can not be assigned. I have tried saving the dwg. I have even started a new drawing and tried again but it keeps giving me the same error. All my drawing are in the same folder on a network drive. Another employee can open the drawing file from his computer and attach the same file fine. when He does it I can see the relative path. Is there a setting that I am missing?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD .NET :: Specifying Location Of Images For Ribbon (Relative Path)
Apr 16, 2012I'm trying to specify the image source for ribbon images using relative syntax but having no luck.
If I use this:
button.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"c:\folderA\folderB\image.png") );
it works just fine. But it relies on absolute syntax, which is daft since it forces the code to be installed in a specific directory (or the images).
I've tried
button.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"images\image.png", UriKind.Relative) );
and
button.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"images/image.png", UriKind.Relative) );
and I've tried placing the images subdirectory with the png file relative to the assembly, to the project source folder and even relative to AutoCAD itself - and in none of the cases do I get an image. I'd like the images subfolder to be relative to the compiled assembly.
AutoCad :: Xref Attach / Relative Path Cannot Be Assigned

Jul 27, 2012Periodically, when I try to create an XREF using the Relative Path option, C3D will tell me that it can't use the relative path. But if I then close the drawing and reopen it, the command works just fine. why C3D sometimes fails to do this, or why closing and reopening the drawing fixes the problem.
Never saw this problem before C3D 2012.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Renaming Relative Path Xrefs?
Oct 12, 2011I have set up a master set of dwg. files we use to create our construction documents. The files consist of a master file that xrefs base files. All of our files are named using the project # first. (i.e. 2011001c.dwg). I have set up the master set using x's to replace the numbers.
Here is how it works:
XXXXXXXc.dwg (master file) relative path xref's the following files.
XXXXXXXlw.dwg
XXXXXXXvlw.dwg
XXXXXXXeg
XXXXXXXfg
XXXXXXXtitleblock
note: all of these files are saved in the same folder.
I am trying to find a way to keep the xref paths working when I copy the files to a project folder and rename the files using the actual job # insead of the x's as place holders. As it is now, when I change the drawing name the reference is lost and I have to manually change all of the xref paths in the xref manager. Is there a command, program, or lisp routine than can change the file names and update the paths automatically.
AutoCAD 2010 :: XREF Changes From Full To Relative Path After Saving Drawing
Feb 29, 2012Any variables that would cause my XREF paths to change from Full Path to Relative Path when I save a drawing?

Photoshop :: Droplet: Save As JPEG Relative Path...
Nov 12, 2008I can't seem to get my droplet working here... using CS3 on PC. Seems like I always hit this problem and have to solve it differently each time.
Anyway, dead simple goal: Create a droplet that converts any file to a JPEG and saves it back to the original file's directory.
if I drag a .gif file from my desktop on to the droplet, it should save a .jpg file with the same name to my desktop. If I drag a file named "testfile.gif" from a folder named "Test", it should create a file named "testfile.jpg" to the "Test" folder. etc, etc.
I have recorded an Action that has a single event: Export. I created that event by using the "Save for Web & Devices" function. The event includes the various JPEG formatting info AS WELL AS a save destination ("In: C:Documents...")
I have tried to create my droplet every which way - specifically:
1) With "Save and Close" selected and "Override Action "Save As" Commands" unchecked
2) With "Save and Close" selected and "Override Action "Save As" Commands" checked
I have also deleted the droplet .exe file before changing this setting (so as to get a "fresh" version).
Nothing works. My .gif files ALWAYS end up in the directory specified in the Action.
Illustrator :: Linked Files Via Relative Path Not Found?
Apr 18, 2013I have linked files in a realtive path /sheets/ in my adboe ai file. We are generating 10,000's of images and placing them in the /sheets/ folder. The naming scheme is the same.
However when I share this project with a friend over dropbox. ai + /sheets/ folder. When he opens it up he's getting a ton of errors about the files not being found.
Does illustrator ignore linked file locations if the path isn't ABOSULUTE? Or if the newly generated images are overwritting the previous ones?
How can I fix this because we are looking at 10,000's of large image reaplcments that will take DAYS of mannual labor?
Illustrator Scripting :: Set Folder As Relative Path To Where Script Is Running?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Relative Coordinates Are Not Working In UCS Origin
Sep 17, 2012I noticed that relative coordinates are not working in UCS Origin in Autocad 2013.
I used to create an UCS according to a mesh of coordinates (North/East). To do that I first aligned the UCS to the North axis and point the origin to known coordinates (this part is working). Then I created a new UCS using relative coordinates, like "non @ -286200,-7485500".
This relative coordinates entry are not working anymore in this version of Autocad (2013).

AutoCAD 2013 :: 2013 Crash When Loading ANY Profile Besides Default
Jul 20, 2012We have loaded copies of AutoCAD Architecture 2013 on several workstations. We had tried brining over older profiles (from 2008)- which did not work, so made up new ones. ANYTIME we go into the profile settings to load a different profile beyond the default, AutoCAD Architecture (US Imperial), eventually while working the program will crash. We've wiped out installations of the program, registry and all, and re-installed without brining over any prior data. Same issue.
Even when using a seperate "default" profile us as (Global) or (Metric)- same issues. The problem with staying/modifying the workspace for the US Imperial is it will not load the complete menus with the MENULOAD command (only loads EXPRESS). If we work within the (US Imperial), no crashing, but again, the menus are not available within that profile for some reason, so that is not an acceptable solution.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Default Content Center Files Path
Nov 25, 2013I am working on a PLTW image that includes Inventor. We had an issue with our original image and had to rebuild it. Now we are running into an issue with setting the Default Content Center Files path. In our profile (DefProf) we use to create the Default profile the path is set to
"%USERPROFILE%DocumentsInventorContent Center FilesR2013".
However, when we use this to create the Default Windows Profile and log in as a user (Test01) the path changes to
"C:UsersDefProfDocumentsInventoryContent Center FilesR2013".
We did not have this problem on the other image.
AutoCAD .NET :: Setting Attachment Path Default For XRef / PDF / Image / DWF
Jan 11, 2013Looking for registry keys to control the default attachment type (Full, Relative, & No Path) for XRef, Image, PDF, & DWF in the attachment dialog. (I'm using C3D but this applies to plain ACad also).
For XRef the key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskAutoCADR18.2ACAD-A000:409ProfilesMyWorkSpaceDialogsXattachDialog
The value is "PathType" DWORD = 1 for relativepath
For Image the key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskAutoCADR18.2ACAD-A000:409ISM
The value is "ImagePathType" DWORD = 1 for relative path (NOTE: this value didn't exist, once I created it, C3D used the key for both storing the value when closing C3D the reading the value when presenting the attach dialog).
Looking for keys that control PDF & DWF attachments.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Tube And Pipe Default File Path Structure
Oct 19, 2011How, or if it is possible to change the default file location for a tube and pipe run?
I know that you can browse out and modify the file path on your initial save but is there any way to change the default?
Example of what the default is: (assembly part number = 123456)
location for Tube and Pipe runs: C:ProjectsDesign Files123456123456AIPTube and Pipe
location for Run File: C:ProjectsDesign Files123456123456AIPTube and PipeRun01
example of what I would like the default pathing to be:
location for Tube and Pipe runs: C:ProjectsDesign Files123456
location for Run File: C:ProjectsDesign Files123456
basically I would like to remove the sub folders so all files are saved in one folder location.
My company is using inventor routed systems 2010.

Nov 15, 2013I was wondering if it was possible to Enter into the Tag Name field something to force it to be default (similar to writing %F%N in the options section of the tag name). I am running something in the background that if tag name isn't specified it doesn't go to its default, therefore the tag name itself has to tell it to go to default.
