Getting an error at startup relating to the dimension style dialog..."C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013acdim.arx cannot find a procedure that it needs.
file date is 8/29/2012
Are there any solutions out there other than a complete re-install? maybe an install repair?
How could I find the Startup dialog box if it doesn't start automatically when I open AutoCad?

I have a huge problem with my Autocad 2013 for MAC, everything is running nice and steady except for one detail, everytime I open the dimension style format to make a new dimension style, autocad freezes (only autocad, rest of my mac keeps working normally) and I cant work anymore, I have to force quit the program and re-open it, but the dimension style I created gets lost. is there something i can do? i already tried by uninstalling it and reinstalling it and this problem doesnt go.
also im new in this discussion groups so if this topic doesnt belongs here let me know before deleting it so i can put it where it belongs
What is the ideal dimension style setting for metric say 1:100 scale. See my setting on the attachment.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have attached a simple dwg file with two dimension styles in it. The current style ("standard") is also the default, so it obviously cannot be purged. The other one ("PULL_X"), which is clearly not current, is also not used by anything in the drawing (as far as I can tell), yet it won't purge.why it cannot be purged?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am familiar with the LAYMCUR command to select an object and make that layer current. I am hoping there is a command to select text or a dimension and make that style current. I can't fine such a command. I have to select a text, see what style shows up in the box at top, go to the text style box, find the style and make it current. It seems like unneeded steps. It's simple for layers, why not text and dimensions?

Unfortunately all our drawings are viewed from inside and I don't want my team to be responsible for copying and flipping glass details in case they forget to flip one day.
I can obviously mirror the viewport view by clicking View/Views/Bottom but this is also mirroring any text dimensions, even though my Mirrtext preference is set to 0.
Is there a way to set a dimension style where the text is automatically back to front so it will then appear the right way round in that particular viewport. How to get round this problem without duplicating parts that can then get missed at a later date and not amended?
This needs to work in both AutoCAD 2014 and AutoCAD LT 2014 as we run a mixture in our office.
Using Autocad 2014. I recently changed our dimension style fill color to background. Now when we create pdf files, there are random lines either to left of the text or left and top of text. It is not every dimension. We had it set to none before and would trim lines around dimension text. We did not have problems with pdf until changing the fill color. It plots from autocad to plotter without a problem.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a drawing that was converted into cad and it seems like every dimension has its own style. When I copy use the move comand or try to change the dimension the text changes from being above the dimension line to centered and the text gets closer together horizontally. When I compare a copied dimension to the original it has all the same properties including the text pos vert still being above text. The actual dimension style hasn't changed at all but what is showing up on screen is different.
Here a image showing three dimensions with the same properties, the top 2'-10" is what it should look like, the bottom is what it looks like when I copied it and the 1'-2" is when I make a new dimension.
I am working with a template, that doesn't allow me to change the dimension style. In the project the Use Style Library is set to Read/Write. I have created my dimension style, at this point just a copy of the ANSI standard with a text size difference. I went to my template and set that syle as my default, and saved it. Now the fact that it doesn't automatically update the drawing I had alreadycreated is a nuisance, however if I creat a new drawing, the style has reverted to a different standard, that is not even the ANSI default. If I right click a dimension and change the dimstyle to what I saved it does update, but if I try to change the style again it defaults to a random dimstyle, AND changes the style even if I hit cancel. So... the question is how to make the changes stick?

The designer use 2009 and 2007 and all buttons they need are working fine on those version. when they tried to use the 2011, almost everything is fine but they need to use the dim style and text style. when they try to press the button an error will appear and then updates send some fix which fixed the error but the problem is it just pop up and disappear within seconds.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is happening in both Map 3D 2011 and Civil 3D 2011 directly on startup and I can seem to get a straight answer as to what is causing this, or how to fix it. The automatic response was to download a fix for the language pack, but that didnt work. Standard AutoCAD 2011 works without any issues, same with ecotect.
Ive already uninstalled and re-installed both of the problem programs.

I have been getting fatal errors during my user account but not in my admin account. I logged in as admin and repaired Autocad Architecture 2010, using the system disk. I got back the report that Autocad was repaired. However, when I returned to my user account, I get an unhandled expection error when I start up Autocad.Architecture 2010. Do I need to uninstall Autocad Architecture 2010 and then reinstall or should I just pick the option to reinstall Autocad Architecture and then do I have to another registration code?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been running ADT 2005 successfully on windows XP Pro for a year, but suddenly after running the backup program in windows XP, I effectively cannot startup and run AutoCAD for all the "Resource Manager Errors".
Checking the Autodesk knowledge base, the problem is recognized, but the solution does not appear to be available to me. Here is what Autodesk has to say:
Startup error: Cannot load resource only dll
Published date: 2004-10-21
ID: TS100289
Applies to:
Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005
Issue
When you attempt to launch a session of Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005, the following error message is displayed:
Cannot load resource only dll
Solution: This error message typically occurs on systems running a backup software, such as Backup Software Verita 9.1. This software runs a remote agent that causes a conflict with the loading of ARX and DLL files associated with Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005. In these instances, disabling the remote agent will restore the ability to launch and utilize Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005.
*[back to me] - I've searched for the aformentioned "remote agent" on my system, but to no avail. Meanwhile, I cannot run ADT as it asks for missing files at startup and at every command.
I have approximately 800 library files that I would like to change the Dimension Style on. Is there a way or some program out there that would allow me to change the Dimension Style on all 800 drawings at once or do I need to open each one up change and save?
View 3 Replies View RelatedEach time I open a drawing, on my arrow dimension I get a style override which is always scaled at 96. Even if I delete the style override, when I close the drawing and open it again, it's back. It's always on the "arrow" dimension, never any other dimensions. I don't know why it's been doing this, it just started one day out of nowhere. Is there a way I can get rid of it? I'm using AutoCAD 2005.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to solve a problem which all 3 of us in the Drawing office are battling with. The standard dimstyle we use is called "MP2013" , we are finding that somehow ACAD is adding something resembling a "$" sign at the end of the dimstyle and the properties are out of whack. We cant work out what brings it on but its been happening for a week or 2 now.

I created a new dimension style named Feet-mm. How can I get this new dimension style to be by default?
Instead of having to select the new style each time .
are there any possibilitys that i can change my dimension style in a way that dimensions with less than a meter are shown as centimeter, for example 0,50 (m) are shown as 50 (cm).

I've searched extensively for a solution to this yet I can't find a solution that works. The >Drawing Setup>Scale tab doesn't seem to exist in this version, and I've tried setting all the CreateDimOverride values in the registry to 0, but even that isn't working.
