How do you enlarge the legend key squares in a display theme style legend? Can you add schedule information to this legend like the total SF of a particular display theme style?
View 1 RepliesI have created a display theme style and legend with custom theme names (i.e. SECURITY, etc.). I have changed the themes display properties to what I want (i.e. ANSI31, blue, etc.).
I have also created space styles with the same custom names (i.e. SECURITY, etc.).
When I create a space with a custom space style the display properties do not match the theme. I am hoping to find a way to have the space style display properties change when I change theme display properties. How do I get these items associated? Is it possible?
There is a font and table style called "Legend" that is automatically generating and can not be purged.
I have looked through all the start up files, all the lisp files and can't find anything that would be creating them!
They appear in any file I open, new or old and even if I open a template file.
I have attached a file that should be empty but you will (or should) see both a font and table style called "Legend".
(FYI I am running AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 as AutoCAD 2010)
We own Civil 3d 2010 and are using the Map workspaces.
It seems Map is hard-coded to use the table style 'Legend' when inserting a legend table, yet you can modify the table style of the legend table after it has been inserted.
Is there a way to change the default table style from 'Legend' to something else?
I have a custom block that includes a sheet keynote field. When trying to setup a keynote legend for those keys, they are 'filtered out'. Why?
How to get the legend to accept keynote fields that are not generated by the stock keynote tools?
I am delving into the world of Display Themes in autocad architecture for the first time. What I am trying to do is apply a display them to a viewport that colour all spaces according to the zone to which they are attached.
I have made a generic space which I have used for all rooms. I have attached those spaces to various zones (i.e. Accounting and Finance, Engineering, Facilities etc.)
I am now trying to create a display theme that will color each zone accordingly. I am trying to do this by setting each theme rule to be;
propertyset definition = zone, property = name, condition = equal to, value = Accounting and Finance (etc.), operator = and.
I do this and nothing happens to the spaces. I have tried experimenting with other property sets attached to the spaces and different properties (ie space base area etc) and it works fine. So i'm pretty sure its just a case of finding the correct zone property to work with.
I have a legend and can't manage to move it to a different part of the screen. Should be simple..

How come I cannot make a legend without AutoCAD crashing?
This video shows that the recover saved the legend that was made but just moving my cursor over it makes AutoCAD crash. It also crashed making a legend in the tutorial.

View 6 Replies View RelatedCurrently we have about 30 sheets where we xref the same construction note and legend. The client is asking us to remove notes that don't apply to each sheet. For example, sheet 1 will not need note 2, 6, 10, 11. Sheet 2 will not need 3, 5, 10, and 11, etc.
Same goes for the legend- they don't want to see something if it does not apply to the sheet.
Other than bringing in those notes and legend into each sheet and modifiying it, I can't think of another way to do this. Previously, if I needed to change the wording of note 4, I change it once and I'm done. If I need to change anything now, I will need to open up 20 sheets.
Also, they want to remove the note completely, and not just cover up the note with "Not used this sheet."

I have been searching around all morning for a way to create a symbol legend in C3D 2012. Is there a way to create a legend of point sysmbols being used with in a dwg? I could do this manually but that could take a while if I have lots of sysmbols.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created a volume surface and associated surface legend table using the cut/fill parameter.
The volumes and areas don't seem to add up, take Cut 2 as an example only if the area of the previous (cut 1) was added could this be possible. There is lots of speculation in our office like does the fill work in reverse?
I am trying to draw on a screen shot from Google Earth. The image has a scale legend that has a measure line that is "80ft". I try to do a scale>reference to make my line equal 80 ft but instead the line I create is "2.75 inches". So I am trying to create a scale that equals what my screen shot is.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have to ad a object to the legend of a map in autocad.
The map contains a grid with on the right lower corner a legend window. Someone else drew some tents and fences on the map and most of the object were copied and placed in the legend with the text next to them explaining what the object is.
If i turn off layer 0 both the objects as well as the grid and legend disappear (means they are all drawn on layer 0) all other layers are the background of the map.
Problem is that I can select the objects drawn on the map but when i copy and drag them to the legend window they disappear behind the legend.
Even if I order them to be op top or in front of other objects they stay behind the white rectangular that contains the legend.
Another problem is that the legend and the grid aren't selectable, is there a way to make them selectable again?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on creating a surface style, legend and surface settings to create Slope Analysis Maps. These maps show a surface with different colors of hatches in triangles of the surface that are within the specified ranges. I have 3 ranges, 0-10%, 10-20% and 20-100%. I have been able to do everything but include the percentage of the area of the range over the total area of the surface. I thought maybe an expression, but doesn't look like you can have expressions for table styles. Attached is a pdf that shows my legend and a surface with the style.

I'm trying to draw a "door types" drawing which shows the elevation of each type of door and I want to be able to place a title under each door that displays the door type mark.

Now I use text to label each type of door...but if someone changes the door type mark and fails to update the legend also....I get a very un-Revit-like mis-coordination with my door schedule!
Routine to build a legend in paper space
I am looking for a routine or app to pull existing MS legend symbols (inserted from the block library) from the drawing and automatically place them in a PS legend. Since I don't have a large screen and sometimes miss a symbol before running a test plot, I wish to automate the process.
I am looking for a way to populate a paper space legend with blocks inserted into the drawing for Land Desktop 2005, 2006 drawings.
I also have to replace non-conforming architectural blocks with my own, then build the legend from all drawings tabbed in the drawing file (possibly all xref drawings as well).
I liked your article on 'Selectively writing drawing blocks to any folder using VBA'. I need to brush up on my VBA 6.0 and learn VB.NET. Perhaps your code can be modified to do the task, and this would be useful to many other designers in a further article.
I would like to add a Master Keynote Legend on a drawing that shows my entire keynote list regardless of whether or not it is used in the project.

I was able to bring in custom curtain wall panels as legend components-- however, when I set the host length, the height is automatically the same. Is there a way to insert a curtain wall panel into a legend that will have a rectangular shape (in my case, taller than it is wide)?
