One of my students managed to make previews of the objects dissapear while drawing and editing.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Drawing View Is Missing But Preview Shows It

Oct 31, 2012

I have a drawing that I created (.dwg) in Inventor 2013 that, when opened, is completely blank.  However, when in the File>Open dialog box, I can click on the name of the drawing and the preview shows the complete drawing with all views fully dimensioned.  I closed Inventor, laucned AutoCAD and tried opening the same file and it was still blank (no views).  I then closed that file and open the old version of the file from the, "OldVersions" folder with Autocad and all the views and dimensions were there.

So I launced Inventor again and reopened the offending print and noticed that the model is not shown in the drawing's model tree.  I'm 100% positive that I did not delete this model/view from the drawing before saving the file.  This is a small drawing and it will only take me a few mintues to recreate it.

I'm using Inventor 2013, SP1.1

Windows 7 64 Bit
Dell M6600
Nvidia Quadro 5010M

AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing 2D Shapes Inside Of 3D Object

Jun 8, 2012

so im drawing a 3d object in an isometric view. it is a 3d extruded object. essentially it is an extruded decagonal tube. i have, at the bottom, a line marking the center of the decagon so i can snap to it, draw a decagon for the base, and extrude it. problem is, i go to draw the decagon (or anything, for that matter), and i cant snap to the inside of the solid. autocad will only let me select the face of the object. is this a setting i can uncheck, or do i have to change the way i am drawing this?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimensions Not Visible When Drawing Shapes?

Oct 5, 2013

Im just starting to use autocad for a College course.

I learned building 3d shapes, inputting numbers for positioning and dimensions as you were forming them, but for some reason, the programme stopped letting me input them in boxes on each axis on the shape, I can only type them in to the status bar at the bottom. This is making it a lot more difficult for me. how to get the option back?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Missing Shape Font Message

Apr 15, 2013

is there a way to suppress the "missing shape file"-message.

I believe there was a checkbox to check this every time you open a drawing. I must have checked it, and now autocad always asks for it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Section View Preview As Uncut In Drawing

Jul 12, 2012

I've just started to do some work with Inventor 2013 and I noticed that, when creating a section view in a drawing, the preview is always uncut and shaded. Even when creating a partial section, the preview shows the full, shaded assembly. I tried playing with the "Section View Preview as Uncut" setting in Application Options, but this doesn't seem to do anything.

I'm on a Mac running Snow Leopard: Using either Illustrator CS5 or CC: when creating a shape with a stroke, using the variable line width tool (which I love!), saving the file. When I re-open the file the stroke has become a shape itself, with many points, and the fill has become a shape with no stroke!?

Photoshop :: Merge Many Shapes And Letterings To One Shape?

Jun 18, 2009

I designed a logo, that contains of several shapes and letterings on different layers. Now I'd like to export this logo as a vector based file, and I also want to create a stamp shape (or how is it called?) of it inside photoshop, so I can easily paint the logo with a single click and resize/transform it wherever I am.

How do I do that best? I guess I'll have to merge the different layers somehow, but how do I do that without rasterizing them?

Photoshop :: Changing Shapes For A Custom Shape

Mar 17, 2008

I can't seem to figure out how to change a custom shape. Shape: 35px H x 700px W rectangle with vertical gradient. What I want to do: I am wanting to reshape the left 100 or so pixels so that the left side curls up and comes to a point approx 50px above. Best way to describe would be the shape would look like a candy cane laid on its side.

NOTE: I don't have a problem creating the shape. I have a problem with getting the gradient to follow through with the shape - the gradient wants to change according to the heigth of the curl. So far the only "attempted" way was using the liquify feature but I can never draw a good circular shape by hand.

Illustrator :: Add Shapes Inside Outlined Shape?

Feb 21, 2013

I have created the outline of a snake using the pen tool.  The shape is closed.  I want to add scales that do not overlap and are snug against the outline wall.  Im sure I am missing something incredibly simple.  I tried to create anchor points along the outline and use the pen tool to connection the anchor points but doing so would delete the anchor points.  Each scale will be different colors and shape and they need to all be snug together.

Photoshop :: Stop Shapes From Getting Style From Previous Shape?

May 25, 2012

Im created a shape and on the first shape I put a stroke and now every shape I do has a stroke even if I dont want one.  I keep having to delete it and also something is weird as when I create a shape and then click another the one I just created disappears.  It says its a vector mask and so its not a shape and but I click the mask it appears but clicking or creating another shape it dissappears. 
 
Okay so played around and it seems every new shape took on the fill of the previous shape which was 0.  How do I stop new shapes from not having 0 fill?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Fill Shape With Other Shapes

Apr 4, 2012

I'm trying to find the best way to fill a shape with other shapes( a with a specific size), without overlaping, like the example below.

My main concerns are the spacing between the circles, the positioning should be as paralel to the the outside shapes as possible, and the size of the circles ( or any other necessary shape).

I'm doing this by hand sometimes with 900 circles. is there a fast way to this? do you know any macro/plugin to make the task easier?

Photoshop :: Fixed Sized Shapes From Shape Tool

May 12, 2004

It might just be my coppy of Photoshop (7), but whenever I use the shape tool (round, rectangle etc) I always get a small fixed shape, and can't seem to draw the shape to the size I want. I can't do a free-transform after creating the shape, but I don't wanna do that as it alters the overall look.

Does anyone know what may be doing something wrong? Do I have to change a setting somewhere? Unlike the marquee tool, I m not able to select from a dropdown box for its constraints.

Illustrator :: Breaking Large Shape Into Several Smaller Shapes?

Jun 5, 2012

I have this object (shape path) that is like a continous loop or ribbon. see below:
 
I would like to break it into two seperate shapes: a top half, and bottom half. I need to remove some between them though.
 
Unfortunately, I cannot make the scissor tool, knife tool or cut path tool work correctly. It just doesn't seem to work, no matter whether I have anchor points selected or not.
 
I have also tried duplicating the object and trying to delete anchor points until I'm left with one of the shapes. However, because of the ordering of anchor points, I end up with a blue line connecting one end of the object to the other.

AutoCAD LT :: Missing Shape Files

Jan 13, 2009

We're using AutoCAD LT 2009, so we of course do not have Aeccland.shx. I am aware that I do not have it. I don't particularly care that I don't have it.

AutoCAD, on the other hand, is very concerned. So concerned, in fact, that it will ask me for this file every time I open projects that involve baseplans shapes from this file. I would like to allay AutoCAD's concerns, and inform it that aeccland.shx is not necessary, and it can get along quite happily without aeccland.shx, and any other shape file. I would like to do this very much, as I am currently working on a project with 60 or more separate files I must pull information from to compile baseplans I can use.
