AutoCad :: 2012 Mac - Lines Not Showing Up In Paperspace

Nov 28, 2011

I'm using autocad for mac. I've just saved a pdf in illustrator as an autocad dwg and opened it in autocad. It shows up but is not visible in my paperspace.

I've made sure it's on in the viewport. I've even tried to plot from modelspace but the lines don't show up in the plot. They are visible in the modelspace. They have all imported on the same layer, though some are different colour - some of them do show up, but not many.

AutoCAD Architecture :: AEC Steel Objects Have No OSNAP In Paperspace

Sep 23, 2011

We model the building using AEC steel members in AutoCAD ACA. When the piping group xrefs our model into their model (in regular AutoCAD) to add their pipe, the AEC steel behaves properly in model space, but when they go to dimension in paperspace (for example from the center of their pipe to the face of a column) osnap does not recognize the AEC steel geometry.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Gone In Paperspace

Feb 27, 2012

A file created over a year ago (I believe with AutoCAD 2010) is needing to be updated.  I have AutoCAD 2012 and when I open it there is no text in my Paper Space.  However, if my manager is to open the same exact file with his AutoCAD 2012 he can clearly see all of the text is still in place.  Is there a setting somewhere that I have missed that may be making the text not show up?  All layers are on and visible.

AutoCAD LT :: Plotting Text With Blocks In Paperspace

Apr 24, 2013

I'm having trouble plotting text with blocks in paper space... I can bring up and edit the text within the blocks themselves just fine. I revise the text, hit "ok" and nothing shows where it is supposed to within the paper space.

AutoCad :: How To Scale Text Size In Paperspace

Dec 1, 2006

I am using CAD LT 2005 but also have access to AutoCAD 2005.

I am unsure about the best way of dealing with text in drawings. Originally I used to put my text in model space - which was fine until I started using multiple layouts in paperspace at different scales. The text would come out either to big or too small.

Others in my office say they put the text in paperspace ONLY at the right scale for that layout. This is fine until you realize that if you have to put text in 4 different layouts at 4 different scales 4 different times it takes forever.

So - I looked up about a command called SPACETRANS which seems to offer a way of working out the right scale for the text in paperspace. EG. Working in mm in model space a good text height for me was 1000. By using the spacetrans command in paperspace I worked out that the text height to be used here was 9.2. This basically gave me my text in paperspace at the relatively same height as it looked in model space.

I now realize that although I can scale my text happily to the right size in all my layouts it hasn't negated the need for me to type it all in many times over. Basically, I still have to type the text into paperspace at the right scale - in this example at 9.2.

How you can type your text in once anywhere (probably model space) and then scale it in all the different viewports without having to retype it all in?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Bold Text Inside Viewport And Slim Text Inside Paperspace?

Feb 8, 2013

I have this strange situation.. i use the Arial font inside my cad drawings and when i print my paperspace layout, the text inside the viewport is a little bit more "bold" then the text i put directly on paper space.

Maybe it's a trick to know what text is placed where, but i want all this to be uniform, same thickness. Is there a system variable to correct that issue?

See the image below: It's a 400 DPI scan from an impression i did.

Up to COUPE C1 is the text inside the viewport, under COUPE C1is the paperspace text. Both are the same height... but difference tickness.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Text Doesn't Show Up In Paperspace

Feb 12, 2010

I am having trouble with getting certain pieces of text to show up in my viewport in paperspace. There is text and linework on the same layer. However, only the linework shows up in paperspace, not the text. I have seen this before and don't remember how to fix it. It is a setting somewhere but I don't remember where.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Paperspace Text Over Viewport Disappears?

Dec 5, 2012

why the text and leaders placed over viewports (in paperspace) keeps disappearing? The text is still there...just not visible. i can select the text with no problem. and if i move it off of the viewport then i can see it just fine. this is happening with all the viewports in my drawings... on all tabs.  If i close the drawing and reopen then all the text appears again.....but when i switch tabs then come back...the text vanishes again.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Hatch Not Showing In Viewport

Jan 23, 2011

I have a viewport that is not showing the hatch pattern. In one layout tab, the hatch shows. In another tab, the hatch does not. The layer is not frozen or off, on the sheet or in the viewport.

Other items and hatch patterns on that same layer show up. The display is set to 2D wireframe. I even cut - paste a viewport from the working layout tab to the non-working layout tab and the pattern disappears.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Materials Not Showing Up In 2010?

Jan 16, 2012

I am using Autocad Architecture and am attempting to use 3-D for the first time.  The program opens and runs fine, and it allows me to create objects with no issue.  However, when I try to apply materials to an object, the materials do not show up.  The materials/textures tab is turned on, I can see the loaded materials, and the style is set to realistic.  Even when I choose the material option "select objects with this material", it selects them as if the material is applied.  The material does not show up either on screen or when rendered.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Dimensions Are Not Showing When Trying To Draw?

Aug 13, 2011

I don't know whether I pressed something and switched off the dimensions display. When I started to use Autocad I could type in the dimensions of a box I wanted to draw and it would be highlighted in blue to let me know whether I was typing in dimensions for the height or the width of the box, but now I can't see it displayed. And when I click on line a previously drew it no longer shows what the dimension of that line anymore.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Double Clicking To Edit Text In Paperspace

Oct 9, 2013

I've trying to track down a solution for an issue that we are experiencing. When some of our lisp programs get run, you can no longer double click on text to edit it in paper space. If I put text in model space, I am able to double click to edit it. Is there a variable for this?

I just verified something else, if I move the text to be outside of the View Port, I can double click to edit the text. If I try to double click to edit while inside the viewport then it switchs to model space withing the viewport.

AutoCAD Architecture :: AEC Walls Showing As Single Lines

Jun 29, 2012

We recently upgraded to AutoCAD Architecture 2013 from Architecture 2011  and am having all sorts of intermittent issues with walls showing up as single lines in x-refs (even though the file being refrenced has been brought into 2013 and shows correctly when opened by itself).  We are also having intermittent issues with the plans and walls themselfs showing as a single line.  I need assistance on strightening this out as we have several jobs pending construction that are all having this issue in incosestant areas.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Live Section Not Showing On Sheet?

Apr 1, 2013

I have created a live section in a view drawing, but when I drag the view drawing onto a sheet file, it does not display. Reading up on this from Autodesk, it states that I must apply a display configuration override on the sheet, to that xref, to  show the live section URL.....However, I right click on the xref as asked, but it does not give me the option to do this...

AutoCAD Architecture :: Attribute Info In Blocks Not Showing Up?

Jan 4, 2011

I have stored a few blocks in our library in 2D.  They contain attributes such as detail numbers, elevation/sheet numbers, and side attributes for keynotes.  But whenever I drag the blocks in now, instead of prompting for the information to be filled out for the attributes it only asks for insertion point and scale and that's it.  it inserts the block but no text shows up, not even a default text.  There has to be a setting to turn off or on.

AutoCAD LT :: Architecture Xref- Walls Showing As 1 Line

May 18, 2012

I am using Autocad LT 2013 and Autocad Architecture withing the same office.  When I open a file that has an Xref from Autocad Architecture with 3D walls in Autocad LT, the walls only show as 1 line instead of 2.   If I open the orginal file that the Xref came from, with Autocad LT the walls show up just fine (as blocks instead of 3d walls as I expected).  I am hoping to be able to veiw the Xrefs correctly in Autocad LT.

AutoCAD Architecture :: XRef Objects Not Showing In Drawing

Dec 11, 2013

I have a drawing done in AutoCAD Architecture 2013.  Most of it is just lines, but I have a couple of Walls with Doors.  It looks fine in the base drawing but when I xref into another file the walls revert to their original color and the doors have disappeared.  The opening is there but no door.

I tried xredit and the doors are there but when I close that they are gone again.  Tried detaching and reattaching...still have the problem.

After I posted this tried Display Configuration.  Clicking all options for Doors gives me the doors...in a closed position, not the same as in the base plan.

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 :: Text / Dimension Showing Old Text When Marked

Oct 20, 2011

When i mark Text/Dimension/Multileader and such in autocad 2011 LT, i get an issue, which i have tried to shown on the picture.The problem is that when i mark them, they show the current size they have, plus any other size they have had (Annotation it seems).

I Make a dimension. The overall annotation scale is 1:10. Now i change the overall annotation scale to 1:100. Then i set the overall annotation scale back to 1:10, i click my dimension, and it now shows how it currently looks, plus how it looked when the annotation scale was 1:100. This way i end up with every text object showing up 5 times when i mark them.
