AutoCAD .NET :: Removing Default Layers

Jan 19, 2012

I'm just finishing up with a command that sets up custom paperspaces for our designers, and once it's done, it deletes the default Layout1 and Layout2 paperspace. The error i'm getting though is the following:

If a drawing contains Layout1 and Layout2, both are deleted as they should be

If a drawing contains Layout1 but not Layout2

or 

If a drawing contains Layout2 but not Layout1

I get an error and it crashes. This seems really stupid i know, but i must be doing something wrong here. I'm using if statements to determine if Layout1 exists, then delete it, and if Layout2 exists, then delete it. However, it seems that every time, if one of those layouts are missing, it still assumes it's there, tries to delete it, and errors out because it doesn't exist. I've tried many variations of "if" statements.

My

public class CHDelete
{
// This function will delete Layout1 and Layout2
[Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.CommandMethod("CHDelete")]
public void CHRENAMECOMMAND()
{
[code].......

AutoCAD 2010 :: Removing / Changing Line Layers Buried In Blocks

Mar 21, 2012

I’m currently working on getting a system for easier plant layout management.  Part of which is condensing what started as 195 mostly random layers into about 15 usable layers.

Problem:

I have about 28 more layers that need to get rid of and I can’t delete them because there are lines assigned to them. However, when I hide all the layers I need so that only the unnecessary layers are showing, there’s nothing there.

Side Note:

I know this problem is most likely because there were layers applied to features deep within blocks. I just don’t want to go through the 700+ block to check each layer assigned to each line.

(This file I was given to start with is a mess. Examples: Some of the blocks have the same exact feature that’s buried 7 blocks deep with no features added to justify an extra bock being there. Some of the blocks aren’t even being used in the layout. Name of the block has no coloration with the actual thing it represents. Stuff like that…)

Question:

Is there a way of hunting down these layers in the blocks to delete / change them without checking each individual block? Or is it possibly because the layer i need to get rid of is applied to a block that’s not being used in the layout?

AutoCad :: Create New Document With New Layers But Paste In Existing Floor Plan

Apr 24, 2013

I am trying to create a new document with new layers, but paste in an existing floor plan since it's the shell I need to be using. When I copy clip and insert into new file, all the layers import with it. I transferred everything onto 0 layers and went into my layer manager to try and delete the extra layers and it says i cannot delete o, xref dependent, etc. I want to create my own layers, and then assign the lines in the plan myself onto the new layers.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Hiding / Removing All Toolbars

Jun 26, 2013

I have 1 user who refuses to learn the ribbon and turns every toolbar known to man on.

It has been suggested that I could remove his ACAD.cui (menuload, then unload). Is this the best way to make sure he cannot use them at all and is forced to learn the ribbon?

Another option I have is to simply click the View tab and uncheck the User Interface panel, but he could just as easily turn it back on as soon as I walk away, or even better he could turn on the Menu Bar from the quick access toolbar and add them through the View pulldown menu or just type in CUI and turn toolbars on that way also.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Add To Available Lineweights In Existing Drawing?

Feb 6, 2013

I'm wondering if there's a way to change/add to the list of available lineweights in the dropdown lists in the layer manager. I want to have a thickness of 0.125", but that isn't available. I found that if I issue the STYLESMANAGER command, I can edit lineweights in existing .ctb/.stb files, but I don't know now to transfer that to be available in an existing drawing. Can I just assign a ctb/stb style to my drawing?

GIMP :: Can't Add Existing Layers To A Group

Jul 25, 2012

I've created an image with several layers and want to group some of them buthave problems.

As stated in the docs, "You can add existing layers to a layer group byclick-and-dragging them."

And also, "The hand representing the mouse pointer must turn smaller beforereleasing the mouse button.

A thin horizontal line marks where the layer will be laid down"

However, I don't see neither a hand, nor a thin horizontal line.

I see a small scaled preview of a layer, and the mouse cursor turns to acorner, not a hand.

I use GIMP 2.8 on windows 7 64 bit.

I've created an image from several PNGs. I've opened one of those PNGs, saved it as .xcf, and then opened others fromFile->Open as layers...

Then I've created new Layer group by right-clicking on the Layers tab andselecting the respective menu item. Then I've run in the problems, describedabove.

Seems I'm doing something wrong.What?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Cannot Edit Existing Features?

Jul 15, 2013

I keep finding it impossible to edit existing features from models/assy.  Even if I change only 1 dim in the sketch.  Once I close the sketch.  The feature fails.  I then try to edit the feature and I will see that the feature direction has changed, but invenotr will not allow me to switch it back.  Basicallly there is no editting power at all.

So you only way I have found to complete the job is to delete the feature and then put it back in.

Is this part of the new way of inventor 2013 or is this another time wasting glitch?

Also now when I edit a sketch I must delete all of the dims, then edit and then put all dims back.

Is this also part of the new way or the direction autodesk products are heading?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Modifying Existing Drawings Plotter?

Jul 23, 2013

I've recently (this morning) come into the issue of the old plot printers being saved in CAD files. I've found a number of tutorials online about adding new pages, and setting the default plotter to "none" via DWGTruView, but these are just shy of what I'm looking for.

Is there any way to tell AutoCad 2013 that if the current/default plotter is "None" to set it to a certain printer? I have about a thousand CAD files that need this change made on them, so obviously a more automated approach would be greatly appriciated. Currently the entire set of them has has their Plotters set to "None", and a custom Page Setup configured.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Removing Service Pack 1 From Network Deployed Installations?

Aug 31, 2012

I was rolling out 2013 in one of our offices during the brief time SP1 was available. I went ahead and included SP1 in the office's network deployment (using the append option) and installed on all the machines in that office. Now that SP1 has proven to to be a problem, is there any way to uninstall the SP without having to do a complete uninstall and reinstall at each machine? Tried checking thru control panel (with and without "show updates" turned on), but the SP does not appear in the list to uninstall separately.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Plot Styles - Cannot Choose Existing CTB File In Drawing

Apr 29, 2013

I received a drawing today that doesn't allow me to choose existing ".ctb" files.  Opening the "Plot style table (pen assignments)" from the Page Setup dialogue box.  I can choose "Start from scratch" , use a "CFG" file, or "Use a PCP or PC2" file".  I do not have any CFG files.  I usually use PCP in my "Plot" dialogue box for the plotter pull-down menu.

How to use my plot style "BRhalf.ctb" when plotting this drawing.  Also, a "heads-up" on background information on this drawing's plot style options, vs. the plot style options on many other drawings I have plotted.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create All New Existing Surface Over Existing Ground

Sep 28, 2012

I'm trying to create an all new existing surface over existing ground. I have a TIN surface of the EG, and I have drawn overlay splines that describe the new surface, but how to go about creating that design surface.

It is a compound surface, open on one end and closed all around on the other, somewhat like a half of a football stadium, but with an irregular upper edge because I am needing to figure out cuts and fills to manipulate the EG into this new surface without costly major terraforming. There is about 40-50' vertical elevation between the "field" and the upper rim with a generally constant 7-10 deg. slope all around. I'm just at a loss to figure out how to approach this project, and am quite new to Civil 3D.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Ultimate 2013 - Cannot Add Hole To Existing Hole Chart

May 22, 2012

I am trying to add a hole to an existing hole chart.  I drop the part into a new drawing, set the ordinate "zero", and add a hole chart by selecting a few holes.  When I attempt to edit the chart: click chart, right click "edit", click add hole, select new holes, right click to create, the "create" selection is greyed out and all I have to choose from is cancel. I searched the forum here but could not find a reference to this a know issue.  Am I doing something wrong or is this a glitch of 2013. 

We are running win7 x64 machines and this happens on both the 2013 Ultimate and Premium editions of the product.
