AutoCAD Architecture :: How To Change Time Between Backups

Apr 12, 2010

Over the past year we have had a problem arise on three projects and I can't seem to track down the cause. The first job it only happened once, the second it happened a few times and now on this third project it has happened twice in three days.

The issue is the dst file becomes corrupt and all of our sheet set info is lost. The backup of the dst file is overwritten every few minutes it seems and by the time we notice a problem, the backup has been overwritten by the corrupt file.

A few questions:

1) What is causing the problem? In reading other posts it seems to have something to do with more than one user writing to the file at the same time (but, this last time it happened, only one person in the office was working on the job).

2) Can we change the time between backups?

3) Is there an easier way to rebuild the sheet set?

Lightroom :: How To Move Download Backups And Backups Folder To A New Location

Mar 3, 2013

I am using Lightroom 4.3 on a windows 7 64 windows computer with two hard drives.  One dedicated to running programs and the larger one for storage of all my other stuff.  Well my backups and download backups folders are on the smaller drive and I need to move them to the other larger drive.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Detail Component Manager Not Loading From Time To Time?

Jan 16, 2012

Ok some times when I go to run details it pops up that it can not load the component database AecDtlComponents (US).mdb file. I go to options and can not do anything there. So I have to close it all down and hope when I reload AA it works. 9 out of 10 times it does. But this is a pain to do when ever you need to add detail stuff. Oh also this happens on more then one computer in the office. running 2012 with sp and all updates on windows 7

Lightroom :: How To Change Capture Time Of Multiple Photos To Specific Time

Feb 2, 2014

I'm trying to change "capture time" of multiple photos to a specific time.
 
I know that there is "Edit Capture Time" feature under Metadata. But when I try to edit multiple photos, it says that "Modify the capture time stored in the selected photos by entering the correct time adjustment for the photo displayed to the left. Other photos (but not vidieos) will be adjusted by the same amount of time". And it really does.
 
For example,
If A file's capture time is 1/11/2011
B file's capture time is 1/11/2012
C file's capture time is 1/11/2013
I would like to change their capture time to 1/11/2014. All the three files.
 
But the current "Edit Capture Time" feature of Lightroom just adds three years to each file like this:
 
A file's capture time -> 1/11/2014
B file -> 1/11/2015
C file -> 1/11/2016
So their capture times remain as different ones. And this is not I want...
 
I've googled a lot and tried several programs other than lightroom as well, but the "Capture time" recognized by lightroom could not be changed by other programs.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Table Text In One Time

Jul 21, 2012

I want to change a lot of table cell text in one time, try to explain something.

In the front of my drawings i have a view tables. in the second column stays a code that represent a location.

e.g. LVC stays for Low voltage cubicle. Now it is my intention to substitute these code to the description of code in one time and only the second column. The several descriptions are written in an .txt file, like LVC;Low voltage cubicle and on the next row LVP;Low voltage panel, and so on.

I think it is only possible with Lisp? or there are other way?

In the past i did it one by one, because mostly there where 2 or 3 tables, now i have a big project with more than 20 tables.

Apr 15, 2011

Am I able to change the workspace from 2D Drafting and Annotation to Autocad Classic?  When I open the workspace dialogue box, AutoCAD Architecture is the only option.  With AutoCAD 2010, the workspace dialogue box gave me three options:  2D Drafting and Annotation, 3D Modeling and AutoCAD Classic.

How do I get Autocad Classic as a workspace option?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Block Units Set To Mm - How To Change

Aug 14, 2012

I have revived an old project that was started about 2 years ago. I went to attach my title block in paper space and the drawing was itty bitty.

Seemed unusual because in another layout the title block is there with the same page setups etc.

Then I looked at the block units and they were set to mm.  Can it be changed?  If  so how?  Or am  I completely hooped?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Unable To Change DIM SCALE

Apr 19, 2011

I can't seem to change the DIMSCALE.  I want to change this is our template.  It is 8'-0" and I can't get it to change to anything else.  I get a response of "Cannot set DIMSCALE to the value".  I have entered 1....1'=0"....0'=.8333....4'-0"  etc., etc.  Units are in Architecture Inches.   I've unchecked "Automatically Create Dimscale Override"; saved as Default; went to Options...AEC Dimension and unchecked everything in "Automatic Scale of AutoCAD Dimstyles" (don't know if that has anything to do with it). 

How do I change the DIMSCALE?

Lightroom :: How To Manage Backups

Oct 23, 2012

I want to backup my catalog.  Specifically, I want to store 2 backups for each catalog.I know how to back them up.  I know how to make them backup to a different drive from the catalog.  But I'm getting stuck managing the backups.
 
Catalog backup structure is like this backup folder/date and time/catalog name.lrcat
 
Say I have a client called "Bob and Sue".  I might edit the catalogue every day of the week and take a backup each time - giving me 5 backups.  I also have a client called Dick and Jane that I edit on Monday and Wednesday and another called Wendy and Steve that I edit only on Monday.
 
At the end of the week here is what my backup structure looks like.  (I've dropped some times in to make things tidy)
 
backups/Monday 1100/BobandSue.lrcat
backups/Monday 1115/WendyandSteve.lrcat
backups/Monday 1200/DickandJane.lrcat
backups/Tuesday 1100/BobandSue.lrcat
backups/Monday 0900/DickandJane.lrcat
backups/Wednesday 1100/BobandSue.lrcat
backups/Thursday 1100/BobandSue.lrcat
backups/Friday 1100/BobandSue.lrcat

AutoCAD Architecture :: Change In Detail Of Wall Type

Jun 20, 2012

Since yesterday, when I try to draw any of our custom wall types all I get is a standard wall type image (rectangle only).  None of the detail or component colors are displayed. When I start creating the new wall, the detail displays until I click at the end of the wall, then the detail disappears.  When I ID an existing wall and a newly created rectangle the properties all match.  I can copy and mirror existing wall and the correct display is retained.  All of the existing walls in the drawing display and print correctly. The newly created wall print only the rectangle.  Medium detail settings are in place.  This has to be a local setting problem on my computer because others in the office can draw the same new wall in the same drawing and get all of the detail.
