AutoCAD Architecture :: Generate Roofs Based On Plines
Dec 10, 2012Is there a way to generate a roof based from plines? Like this but without tracing? I need to generate multiple roofs at once with the same slope ect.

Is there a way to automatically generate layers based on color? I just downloaded a CAD object that's only got 1 layer but several different colored lines. It would be extremely painstaking if I had to take each and every line and place it on a different layer. It would be much easier if I could tell AutoCAD 2006 to simply split the object up by color and place each one on a different layer.

I would want it to fill a grid, with a patch of the color with the colors name underneath it, and with the name of the swatch as a header on a black background. Maybe even with the lab, cmyk and rgb values underneath each color.The colors need to be arranged in the same manner as in the swatch.

My question is related to released state of iparts. Currently we are generating/ releasing
all the iparts when new member is added in order to manintain the parent child version relationship
Example : say i have a ipart 41020.ipt and i have members 41020- 001 ~ 008 . I check out the parent
from Vault and add 009 member to it.
Question :
Do I have to generate all and check those in to maintain the version relationship between the child and parent inside
Vault 2013 ?
Or
Only generating 009 will maintain version relationship inside Vault 2013

How do you join a square wall to a slanted roof so that the walls are not sticking out of the roof.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI got trouble connecting my exterior wall to the roof or in other words, it would be good, if the insulating layer would not be pierced by concrete (-:

Joining roofs.
I'm trying to join two roofs together by extending onto the other - Unfortunately the one to be extended is higher than the other roof (see attached image).
Both roofs are created by footprint.

Is there a way to convert the pixel based phtoshop files to the vector based illustrator files?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have these plines that keep appearing in my drawing that are not on a layer (see attached). I have never experienced this before. There are 10x duplicates stacked upon one another surrounding three separate shapes. My theory is that a hatch is creating them. I deleted them and they came back. How do I manage them and their display properties, or better yet, remove them from the drawing.

I have a 3d topographic survey plan. I need to take sections at various locations and would like to know the best way of going about this.
I am used to working with solids and so would normally just take a section plane but this won't work as the 3d topographic survey plan I have is made up of polylines.
A new problem; I can't join these plines. I have tried just 2, selecting them before entering the command but nothing happens. I need the selected line joined with the one on each end that shares that node.

So, I am trying to output a solid 3D model of the attached drawing. I traced it and converted it into a dxf, from there I cleaned it up, but cannot pedit. I assume it has to do with the arcs. Cannot find anything on google, so I thought I would turn to you good folks.

I have got a recordset that contains a bunch of ehandles for closed plines. Currently I cycle through the recordset, change each ehandle to an oblject and hatch it. It works fine, but is a tad slow. I would like to put all of the ehandles into a selectiion set (maybe?) and hatch them all at one time.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI searched and saw lots of posts on converting a spline object into a pline, but not the other way around. I like the way that splines can use control vertices or fit points.
I know that you can apply a spline smoothing to a pline, but what I'd like to do is to convert a pline object into a spline object and splining a pline does not do that.
Any fairly easy way to do this? Are there LISP routines that do this?
The Plines that I am using on my drawing do not appear solid when I change to the required global width, all my system variable are set correctly however the lines are showing 'doubled'. How do I rectify this?

I am attempting to fillet plines to make rounded curbs at street intersections. Whenever I create the fillet, the 2 plines that were filleted remain as they were before the fillet.
This only happens on my computer and only in AutoCAD 2011, it works fine in Civil3D 2011. We only have a limited number of Civil3D licenses or I would just use that all the time.
The attached screenshot shows an example of what happens. The 2 red lines are what were filletted (the fillet is in white). Both lines are long enough to accomodate the radius of the fillet.
What is causing this problem?
I've been trying to figure out how to do this. I have a file with 41 drawings, and 7650 objects. and i want all the lines, arcs and circles to be turned into polylines. Now the Mpedit command doesnt really do it for me.
Command: MPEdit
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 4632 found, 10 groups
Select objects:
divide by zero
This is what happens when i write MPEdit, mark everything in my drawing and press enter. Now i also tried marking a line, using select similar, and fixing it that way. but i get the "divide by zero" error aswell.
I have several rectangles in a drawing which have the same dimensions, is it possible to perform a multi select of these items by specifying the lenghts of the rectangles ? I can't see a way of doing this under QSelect or Filter.

I know there are different ways to do this. Would like to know multiple options so I can see which might be quickest for me.
I have points with elevations and 2D plines at elevation zero drawn between them.
I would like 3D plines instead. This is the easiest way for me to transfer them to another drawing where I will make surfaces with them. I don't want to have to transfer the points over.
I can redraw the plines as 3D plines but this is time consuming and seems unecessary.
I don't want to have to convert them to Feature Lines either. I prefer they be 3D polylines.
Is there a simple command for this? I already have a surface containing the points and lines as surface breaklines.
Is there a project objects to surface command that will make these 2D plines at elev 0 into 3D plines while assigning elevations (and vertices) only at the current vertices?
What about a simple series of commands to convert the 2D plines to 3D plines, then force the 3D pline to take on the elevations of the points at its vertices? (I think this would be my preference, but don't know any of these commands or where to find them.)
I am working on a script. I need to select all lines and polylines and set there linetype scale to 1.
I'd take a simple lisp routine if that would be easier.
Didn't their use to be a control for how PLines showed up at intersections when you increased the width? I can't remember where it was (dialog box, options, sys-var)?

Is any lisp code to run in bulk open drawings with out entering command prompt.
I'm looking for something that, after selecting several plines (overlaped or not), I can insert/remove vertexes.

However I need something else...
I need to select several plines and export their vertexes (as it is already done) BUT I also need to select SEVERAL texts and export them as well as their insertion point coordinates.
I tried with the code below but without any success... It gives the error "; error: ActiveX Server returned the error: unknown name: "TEXT"" This happens after selecting some texts and hiting enter.

Of course with ACAD MAP (FDO Labels for example) or better with ACAD CIVIL : no problem !
But often I have to use a Standard AutoCAD ...
A lots of people have already asked for this routine :
But I search in this forums and some others and unfortunately I can't find any correct routine Full operational on ACAD 201X 32/64 bits
I have many 2D Plines with an Elevation : some Normal , some have been splined --> 1st problem
I would like to label them with :
- either a Block with ONE attribut : the elevation
- either a MText with a blank Mask behind
As you wish ...
Question : Size/Height of the Block or MText ?
Some 2D Plines are very long (2nd problem) so I would like a question like :
Label each Pline every xxxx Units ?
So on a Pline Contour of 2000 meters, I could have the elevation (Block or MText) every 50 meters ...
Of course I would like that the Block or Mtext will have to follow (rotation) the Pline (splined or not) where the label is inserted !
