I am attempting to create a cable tray. I have used Members, and Walls but neither worked really to my satisfaction. With the need for turns, ups and downs. How to accomplish this.
I am attempting to draw a cable tray layout in Autocad 2010. I am very much new to Autocad.
Basically, i want to draw a cable tray on pedestals which are arranged in a rectangular area. Now, I can draw bends so that the tray stay on pedestals but my question is how to draw the tray that is equidistant from both the corners of the pedestal? There are 6 pedestals arranged in a rectangular manner. All the pedestals are of equal length and width.
I want to put a cable tray going from a sliding door to a fixed piece of steelwork. When the door opens and closes, I want the cable tray to adjust to suit the sliding door. I'll upload the file that I have made. When i drag the sketch it all moves accordingly, but when I placed in the assembly and make it adaptive it does nothing, it will not constrain and it will only bring up the errors.

I need to add "Level" into my Cable Tray schedule; we need to sort the cable trays lengths by floor level. However, "Level" is not listed as one of the available fields, even though level information (show up as "Reference Level) is one of the constraints in the cable tray model.
I am working on a assembly where a cable wrapped around a drum is animated to rotate with the drum, and there is a longer cable coming off of the rotating cable wrap, this longer piece goes down to another cable on a roller assembly. I have edited the assembly to work without the actual cable drum and without the roller assembly ( I wasnt allowed to share those models ) There are now two cylinders in place of the cable drum, a Grounded center to hold everything in place, a Rotating center which is animated so the wrap can rotate.
My problem is when the part named "Drum to Roller" is a lofted cable with angled ends to meet the "Drum wire wrap" at one end and it meets the "Radius cable ends" at the other end. I need the "Drum to roller" to stay constrained to the "radius cable ends" as well as the "drum wire wrap" ... and after being constrained still animate.
I have set up the animation and you will see that the "Drum wire wrap" is animated to keep the end vertical , the animation is set up to look like the "drum wire wrap' is un-raveling cable and the "drum to roller" is to be what un ravels.
I need to find a way so that the "drum to roller" translates down and over , staying constrained to the "drum wire wrap".. You will see that so far it does not.
I have attached two links below they include the two halfs of my assembly, place all the files in the same folder so you wont have to search for them manually.
I would like to gather some photos from different files in a new tray so I can manipulate these photos together. I have tried to figure this out and I think I have done it before. But for whatever reason now I cannot use the add tray button nor can I do it on the organizer button at the upper left corner of the tray. When I click on more options none of the tray buttons are highlighted, so I cannot get it to create or delete or rename a tray.
I am trying to create a ribbon cable between two connectors, but for some reason the ribbon cable starts away from the connector and I am not sure why?
This document has been damaged by a disk error. The most likely causes of this error are: a defective disk drive, a defective disk drive cable, or incorrect peripheral cable termination. Some of the pixels in this document may be invalid.
I am trying to make an angled tray in sheet metal by am having some trouble getting it to work out. I was unable to find an example of this type anywhere. I tried doing it as a sheet metal part first then gave up, created a standard part and shelled it. My problem is ripping the corners.
Is there a way to switch to the classic tray view in AutoCAD 2014? What I am referring to as "classic" was the tray that had the more rectangular icons with words in them as opposed to graphics. The buttons would highlight if active. To ensure I am clear on what I am referring to as the "tray": the new tray has smaller, square icons, shown below.
How to create a tag and add it to my tool palettes for future use?
I am using AutoCAD Architecture 2012, and I want to be able to tag the bottom elevation of slabs in my drawings. I found I can create a tag by using the DEFINETAG command and I created text in there that is set to display the bottom elevation of slabs. I'm stuck as to where to go from here. I can't actually "tag" anything with this, and I don't know how to add it to my tool palettes.
I've been having an issue with autocad architecture 2013. For some reason it won't let me create a wall. I can click it but it doesn't want to actually create anything. It just gives me the selection tool. I downloaded the service pack and still doesn't work.
How would one create a 3D rain gutter? I could make a profile of the gutter with a pline and then extrude it. Or I could perhaps use mass elements? How would I miter them on a corner?
I'am trying to create profile from opening.I have found interesting method : Profile.CreateFromProfile.But every time i call this method "eInvalidInput" exception is thrown.
I'm using AutoCAD Architecture 2012. I cannot get the darn thing to create an Etransmit file. I'm sure it is some setting that I'm missing, but for the life of me I can not find it! It runs everything just like it is creating the file, but when everything is done, there is no file. I thought maybe it is creating the file somewhere that I didn't tell it to create the file at, but I can't find the file any where on my computer.
what I'm doing now is closing out 2012 and opening the file(s) in 2011 and creating the etransmit there, because it works. Is this a bug for 2012?
I already learned how to draw a plan of walls in autocad11 and make sure they have the desired height, so I can now draw a whole floor or story. But I do not know how to draw the one above it or under it.
I am working in Arch Desktop 2011 and need to make a wall for a upper floor and roof line with different plate heights. See the attached drawing for explanation.
What I'm trying to do is create an upside down "V" wall to fill in this area. This is an as-built drawing for an existing house with an addition.
I am trying to edit photos using actions I purchased for PS CS6. I started on a batch of photos from the same shoot. I got about 7 shots deep and suddenly I can't "Play" any of the actions. I can't do anything with regards to actions. I do not know how to fix this! I have a client waiting for photos and I can't do anything.
LR will not print to top tray v 3 and 5,tried two different printers. If i print a jpeg from the desktop no problem. This is a new problem that has not happened to me before.
I'm new to the architecture package, but not AutoCAD. I just got training and this has stumped my instructor and me. We use half doors in our buildings and can't figure out how to design one. The door and frame that will finish @ 42" AFF.
In CS6, when using mini-bridge in PS, Bridge is working in the system tray ... this is not the case with CC. How can I send Bridge CC to the system tray on windows OS?
When I print to a KONICA MINOLTA C652SeriesPS printer, CorelDraw ignores the bypass tray setting. When I print from any other application, the bypass tray is used correctly. This problem only started about a month ago. Not sure if the last Corel update broke it or the update from Adobe did, but something changed.
I'm using PSP Pro 4X. I created a tray, but now I can't remove it. I click on the Tray Tool Bar, but the function for deleting the tray is not highlighted so I can't delete the tray.
I've got a problem with my MEDION graphic tray (MSN:5503 9347).I want to draw in grayscale with my Windows 7 computer.In Windows XP it was no problem, but I cant do that under Windows 7.I think that it's the driver, wich supports the graphic trayas a mouse instead of a graphic tray.I have asked MEDION already, but they said, I have toask the software producers.
