AutoCAD Architecture :: Changing Single Door Style?

Jan 10, 2012

I'm new to Architecture Desktop (especially 2012), I dabbled with it a little bit years ago.

I'm doing a floor plan and I want to change one door to a double door. I changed the style and it changed all the doors. So I did a search and saw something about doing a style override in the "Edit Object Display." So, I checked all the "Object Override" boxes in there. Buuut...when I right click on that door and do "Edit Door Style" it still changes ALL the doors in the drawing to double doors.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Door Display Single Line

Feb 4, 2012

Is there any to get the single line display into the medium or medium low rep by object? I see the only place to get it is to use the High Detail rep by object. Normally in a high detail would you not want a double line for doors? and use a single line for concept in the medium low? I would like to see the ability to have the single door in all display reps by object

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Style And Window / Door Insertion

May 3, 2012

I use ACA 2012 for residential design - I have a wall style, 2x4 stud w/ 1.5" airspace and 3.5" brick (modified from the stock styles) - but whenever I insert a window, it makes it as wide as the wall (9") when it should be only the depth of the stud wall (2x4 or 2x6) - How can I fix this?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Door Style Linetype Change In Xref?

Aug 14, 2013

In my xref drawing I changed the linetype of a swing to be hidden. After changing it in the xref and saving I go to my plot file and the swing is still continuous. Visretain is set to 1. The swing changes on all other drawing files except one.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Division ID Project Property Parameter Showing As NA In Door Style

Sep 8, 2011

I have been successfully able (after reading through the Users Manual) to create a new door style and a new property set definition applied to that door style. I was able to insert the new door style in a drawing and the Extended Data tab on the Properties pallet on the right side of the screen showed all the propwer data, except for one field.

 I used two parameters from the Project Properies Definitions in my "custom" property set but only one of them (Number) seems to be working as expected to contain my Project ID Number within my door style.  The Division ID parameter, however, does not contain anything within my door style except "NA", even though I placed a value in the Division ID field in the Project Navigator Tool Pallet. 

"NA" is what shows up in the field on the Extended Data portion of the Properties pallet for the selected door instance.

As an aside, I found writting this post to be very time consuming because I had to keep refering back to the various ACA screens and pallets to be sure of using the correct names for everything to avoid confusion.  Hopefully I have succeeded!

AutoCad :: Changing Style Of Single Text?

Jun 8, 2012

I need to change the style of my single text, not Mtext, but just text on AutoCAD 2011. If I try to edit Mtext then the Ribbon on the top of Cad changes to Text Editor and allows me to modify the text as I require. However when I click into single text all that happens is the text becomes highlight and I no longer get the option to change the style or font. What toolbar or option is missing so I can get it back as normal.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Overhead Door - Door Inside Frame

Feb 28, 2012

I working on a deadline with little sleep, but I cannot believe it is this hard to get an overhead door to look right.  All I want is a 1" thick frame, the same depth as the wall AND the door slab to be INSIDE the frame like a real overhead door.

The attached PDF shows the standard OH door on the left with the stupid door centered in the frame.  The door on the right is one I created by inserting a cased opening in the wall, then manually drawing a rectangle and dashed line for the OH swing.  All I am interested in is getting this right in plan at this point.  Using Architecture 64 bit.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Linking Door Tags To Door Schedules?

Feb 14, 2012

I have ACAD Arch 2012 and I am trying to associate my door tags with my door schedule and visa versa.  I get as far as creating the Door Schedule with all the doors on it and quantified just the way you would want to see it; however, the "Mark" remains "A" for every door.  I discovered that I can change the Mark on the extended properties of each door, but I believe there should be a better (and more linked) way to accomplish this.  Since the program already recognizes how many doors there are of a specific style it should be able to put sequential "marks" to each door, for example "A", "B", "C", etc.

what's the difference between Door Tags - Project Based and regular Door Tags?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Do A Door Schedule By Styles Rather Than Individual Door

Apr 29, 2004

--Is there a way to do a door schedule by styles rather than individual door?

--To clarify: I want my door schedule to create a new door number only when one or more of the property sets, classifications, or door styles pertaining to a door are not defined by other doors in the schedule. This would facilitate giving the same door number to multiple doors that have matching schedule information, and cut down on my schedule size.

--how to do this. If I need to create custom tags, schedules, or formula properties.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Changing Text Style Used By Table Style

Jun 29, 2012

I am looking for a way to change the text style used by a table style with Visual LISP.  So far I have been able to get the IAcadTableStyle object from the acad_tablestyle dictionary, but there is no property for text style.  Is this even possible?  Code and results are below.

(defun DumpTableStyles ()
(setq dict (vla-get-dictionaries (vla-get-activedocument(vlax-get-acad-object))))
(setq TableStyles (vla-item dict "acad_tablestyle"))
(vlax-for TableStyle TableStyles
(vlax-dump-object TableStyle)

)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Changing Dimension Style Reverts To Different Style

May 7, 2012

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?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Door Tags Not Updating

Jul 4, 2012

I made a door tag, tagged all 128 doors and during a check set noticed that the text in the tag is the wrong font. I opened the tag and changed the font, saved and regenerated the drawing. The font in the current door tags did not change. To be sure I changed the correct tag I added a new tag and the font is correct. Why do the current tags not update? Do I need to do something? I do not want to go back and redo all 128 door tags.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Door Jambs Display In RCP

AutoCAD Architecture :: Scheduling Doors From Door Tag

Feb 20, 2011

Currently our door schedule populates when the doors are inserted into the drawing. I would like to know if I can set the schedule up so it populates when the door is tagged. Our doors are inserted into a base plan and that base plan is xrefed into various sheets.

The doors are tagged in one of these sheets and not the base plan. It takes too much time to stop and set up the schedule to schedule the doors across the xref for every project we do. I have read several articles but none of them explain how to schedule from the tag that I can see. I thought this was how the schedule was set up in a previous version.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Sizes In Door Schedules?

Feb 12, 2013

i have created a door schedule and it seems to be missing the most important part, the sizes!  When I go into Style Manager and click on the door shcedule and try to add columns size does NOT come up as a choice.  I have added size to the property sets of the doors.  I have tried everything I can remember from  older versions of Autocad and it just won't put in this bit of information.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Door Tags Assigned To Spaces?

Apr 11, 2012

I have created custom spaces and I have been able to build room with doors and then add a door tag that updates automatically with the info of the door.  But for some reason, I am unable to assign the door to the space.  I am not using project and I think that may be my problem.  I feel as though I am almost there, but I can't assign the door to the space so that when I add a door tag it recognizes that the door is in a wall in a space and then gives me those numbers.  If I click on the tag, I am able to anchor it to the space and then the room number appears in the tag, but I was hopnig to have it do it automatically.  I have the door squiggle inside the space but I don't know how to attach it and also the space seems to have a number project based assigned to it, but that is not what I want since the drawing is not project based.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Window And Door Schedules Not Appearing?

Jul 23, 2011

All my layers are turned on, when in an existing drawing my schedules do not appear when I use the tool to create them.  When I open a new drawing draw a wall and a couple doors, the schedule inserts when I use the annotate tool. I am only using a basic floor plan at the moment, no xrefs or anything else, simple walls and doors and inserted from the program.  I did use tags for the doors and windows which worked fine.
