AutoCAD LT :: Missing Authoring Palettes In The Block Editor

Jan 12, 2012

I am a new user and working my way through the AutoCad Training Guide AutoCad LT 2012 No Experience Required.  In Chapter 9 is Creating a Dynamic Block. After creating a block and inserting it into a new drawing you are able to open the block editor and begin using the Authoring Palettes.  In my case the Authoring Palettes are blank except for a a blank Create a New Palette.

Under the Palette's Properties All Palettes are checked as on. How do I turn on the ones shown in the book?  Constraints, Parameter Sets, Actions, and Parameters.

AutoCad 2D :: Difference Between Tool Palettes File Locations And Authoring Palette File Locations?

May 30, 2013

I am new to using Tool Palettes. I have created a folder on my C: drive which contains all my tool palettes. Right now, I get the symbol of a circle with a line drawn through it and cannot use my tool palettes.

In the Options tab, I noticed that there are the "Tool Palettes File Locations" and also "Authoring Palette File Locations". What is the difference between the two? Do I need to do something to both so I can use my tool palettes without difficulty?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2011 Tool Palette Locations

Apr 2, 2012

I work for the IT department of a company who uses Civ3d 2011.

We've a problem that when the software is deployed to machines it doesn't display the tool palettes. After some investigation and following steps on this website I've identified that the issue is the tool palettes are installed inn to the profile of whoevers account installs the software. if its deplyoed this will be the Sys Admin account and not the profile of the relevant user account.

What is the location of the tool palette settings within the registry or the relevant configuration files in the profile so that I can either script or embed it in to the package?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Old Tool Palette Has Replaced 2014 Tool Palette?

Jul 17, 2013

For some reason, the tool palette I usually use is not accessible. I opened a drawing that a co-worker was using and my tool palette now looks like an old version - it doesn't have any of my custom tools in it. How do I get back my tool palette??

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2011 - Tag Not Updating?

I’m having a problem with ACA 2011 and tags (prop sets). 

They are not updating When add any type of tag to an object.  It’s coming up as –

I have download the sp2 and it seems to fix the problem,  but then it comes back again.  Some PC are working and other are not.

The only workaround I have got is to remove ACA from the regedit and run CAD again or run the update msi.

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2011 Switching Drawings By Itself?

Apr 8, 2011

Several users here in my office have been having a strange issue with ACA 2011.  When doing various things such as, saving, regen'ing, or manually switching between open drawings, ACA will "blink" to a completely different drawing.

For example, right now I have 4 drawings open.  I'm trying to go from drawing A to drawing B.  It goes to drawing B and starts to regen model space, then it blinks back to drawing A.  Does the same for any of the 4 drawings.  Only way to make it stop was to close drawing A.

As I said, it not only does this when switching drawings.  It'll also do it after it's done saving and when I try to regen.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Explode Blocks In 2011?

Jul 13, 2012

Is it possible in ACA2011 to explode a block, but control what layer the pieces go to?

I have a block for a closet rod and shelf , but it always has to be re-sized once in the drawing so  i must explode it.  since it was made on layer 0 it explodes to that layer and I have to change the items to the proper layer.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Plotting To PDF In 2011 And 2012?

May 23, 2011

After I plot to pdf, I get an error message: You do not have a PDF viewing application installed. Go to the internet and dowload a pdf viewer. The problem is that Acrobat Reader X is installed on my computer. I saw the thread about Reader X having spooling issues, so I reinstalled Acrobat Reader 9. Still get the same message.I can go to the file afterwards and open it, despite this message, but it is supposed to open from Architecture after it is plotted and it won't do that.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Can't Import DGN From 2013 But Could From 2011

May 22, 2013

I am having issues with drawings from a consultant.  They are sending us DGN files and they do not seem to want to import in the latest AutoCAD Architecture 2013 I have deployed throughout the offce.  However, these same drawings have no problem in importing to AutoCAD Architecture 2011.  In 2013, I get no activity once I select the file to import.  If I click on the screen once, the program dims and the program says it is not responding.  But I have no problem with 2011.

Apr 29, 2011

When I give keyboard commands to open, save or save as the program freezes. Pulldown menu to open and save work fine but pulldown save as freezes and freezes when using commands on "A". Happening in 2009 also. Same thing happened yesterday, repair did not fix it, so uninstalled and reinstalled and all was fine. Now today freezing again.

AutoCad :: Block Counting In LT 2011?

Apr 16, 2012

I need a way to count blocks (specifically employees on a production line), and I used to use a "count" lisp command that worked great. I'm thinking that lisp doesn't work in LT. I don't use Acad every day anymore, and I am quickly forgetting many commands and tricks.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Unable To Snap To Walls In 2011

Apr 28, 2010

After upgrading to ACA 2011 in plan view I am unable to snap to the edges of walls. Toggling the osnap setting check box to allow object snap to act on wall justification lines seems to have no effect as it always snaps only to the justification line and to nothing else. This is extremely annoying and makes it impossible to dimension to the face of a wall that is center justified. Is this a bug or am I missing some new setting somewhere? All my layers are unfrozen including layer 0.

We are also getting what appears to be random slow downs on files when opening and a jumpy mouse that makes drawing impossible. I have not been able to establish a pattern to point at specific files to being the problem as it happens across several the are fine one day, not fine the next and fine again a day later. All stations are identical.

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2011 EXTREMELY Jumpy Cursor?

Mar 23, 2011

I have a sluggish jerky cursor (and it’s not the operator) when you are NOT in a command and while you are creating your selection set in the command. The cursor jumps and reappears @ ~1 sec intervals so you have to anticipate your mouse move to do anything. OH...and it's only happens in model space.

I tried several settings I found on the internet but nothing works. It's only doing it in 3 drawings right now. The latest one was working fine until ~10:00 this morning, then it started in...no issues before this.

It really makes AutoCAD 2011 basically unusable as it takes 5X longer to complete each command!

AutoCAD Architecture :: Changing Text Styles Between 2011 And 2012?

Jul 30, 2013

I would like to preface this post by stating, for the purposes of this message, that I have absolutely no understanding of the workings of AutoCAD. I have looked at many forum discussions concerning my issue and I am simply unable to understand the terminology and/or concepts being described.

I recently purchased a new computer for my office. Accordingly, I needed to install AutoCAD on this new machine. All of the machines in my office are running AutoCAD 2011. However, after addressing some licensing issues with AutoDesk, I received a license and installer for AutoCAD 2012. Everything was installed correctly (as far as I understand) and the program itself is working fine. The problem I am running into involves the text style for the files I open:

For files saved on AutoCAD 2011, the text style used is Arial. Simple; no custom fonts. However, when I open that same file in AutoCAD 2012, the text style for the entire file has changed to Franklin Gothic Book. (Note that all files are accessible from all computers in the office through a network drive)

That is my only understanding of the situation. As I mentioned earlier I have very little understanding of the workings of AutoCAD. I have had this problem for almost a week now and I am no closer to understand this issue, much less solving it.

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2011 Backwards And Forward Compatibility With 2008?

Dec 27, 2010

Is there any reason to keep 2008 if you have a new copy of 2011?  Any old features lost or old files types that can't be opened in 2011 that worked in 2008?

What's the best ways to make sure files edited and saved in 2011 can also be opened  and fully edited by users of 2008?

Save as older version?  Export as IFC?  Something else?

AutoCAD 2010 :: 2011 Crashes Upon Trying To Insert 3D Block

Feb 3, 2012

I created a number of 3D blocks to be inserted into a 3D model of a building.  I created the blocks in a separate drawing first; i defined them locally, then, when i had them the way i wanted them, I used "wblock" to save all of these blocks to a folder.

I then opened the 3D building model and tried to insert one of my new blocks.  I repeatedly get the following:

"AutoCAD Application has stopped working"

with the following info from microsoft:

"Description:
  Stopped working

Problem signature:
  Problem Event Name:    APPCRASH
  Application Name:    acad.exe
  Application Version:    24.1.208.0
  Application Timestamp:    4dbf9c16
  Fault Module Name:    KERNELBASE.dll
  Fault Module Version:    6.1.7601.17651
  Fault Module Timestamp:    4e21213c
  Exception     e053534f
  Exception Offset:    000000000000cacd
  OS Version:    6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48
  Locale ID:    1033"

I have tried repairing my installation of autocad with no improvement.

i tried opening the drawing of the block itself, copying it, and pasting it via the "copybase" command into the other drawing with the same result.

Occasionally, autocad will ask me if i'd like to debug the program (and visual studio opens) -- it mentions a "StackOverflowException" within acad.exe, and also mentioned "windowsbase.dll".

I am using windows 7 pro x64 and autocad 2011.

CPU: intel i7

Graphics: NVidia GeForce GTS 250

8GB DDR3 ram

The autocad error-reporting dialog never gets launched as it is forced to close before this point.
