AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Client Application (COM C++) Suddenly Will Not Build
Apr 19, 2013
My Civil 3D 2013 client application (COM C++) suddenly will not build:
error C4772: #import referenced a type from a missing type library; '__missing_type__' used as a placeholder..fatal error C1084: Cannot read type library file: 'C:/Program Files/Common Files/Autodesk Shared/AecXBase70.tlb': Error loading type library/DLL.
The type library is imported in the following way in StdAfx.h (as I have done for several years now, though with different version (60, 65, 67 etc.) each year):
#import "C:Program FilesCommon FilesAutodesk SharedAecXBase70.tlb" raw_interfaces_only named_guids no_namespace
I have tried to reinstall Civil 3D 2013 but that did not work. I probably also should mention that I have installed Civil 3D 2014, but that was over a week ago and I have been able to build since then.

Is this possible, create a .Net 3.5 Dll(A.dll), reference to Oracle 11g 32 bit client Oracle.DataAccess.dll. this dll will be used in another dll(B.dll), which load in AutoCAD 64 bit application. 32 bit version of AutoCAD is not allowed to install on Windows 7 64 bit. Right now I set my B.dll as 'Any CPU', and A.dll as 'Any CPU' as well. Do I have to use 64 bit oracle client in my A.dll?

My application has suddenly started to link the hatch pattern to the area boundaries.
The objects remain on their own layers, but I am not able to delete the hatch pattern without deleting the boundaries.
I cannot edit the hatch pattern either as the application no longer recognises the hatch pattern.
Have i changed a setting unwittingly?

I am trying to build a spiral staircase and need to use spline to build the railings. Every time I try to end the spline by hitting enter the spline disappears. I am using 2014, and I have never had this problem before with previous versions.

Installed the latest Novel Client 2 SP2 for Windows (IR2a). On the first restart C3D froze. I rebooted again and I got Civil 3D going. It looked a little different and I had to import a backup profile. The biggest thing that didn't fix is the display. Our standard font is Tahoma, a TTF that appears filled. It now looks like this:
This affects both MText and text in Styles. So far I'm only having this show up in the drawing I had open just before the install and opened immediately after. I've run Audit and Recover, repaired Civil 3D, checked that the standard text style was still set to Tahoma, added the windows Font folder to the path, verified that FillMode is on. I've tried opening the drawing in a stock profile with the same results.
I reinstalled the video driver, downloaded and installed the latest from the Nvidia site and downloaded and installed the latest from the Autodesk hardware site. That's what's installed now. I've turned hardware acceleration off and back on. I've gone through each tab in Options looking for anything not set right. I've turned Windows Clear Type Text on and off.
The text also flashed in and out of visibility as I zoom in and out. So not all of the text may be shown at any one time. I'm also getting a lot of Fatal Errors. I found out that if I remove the Background Masks the text shows as filled, but it's still terribly jagged.

I am currently trying to etransmit or export one of our C3D drawings to CAD 2007 to send to a client. Every time I estransmit or export a lot of boxes appear on the exported file. Does anything know what they are or how to get rid of them? it won't let me freeze them, they all seem to be one block together.

Until now I have used Civil 3D for small projects. Now I'm starting a large project, 30 parcels, 5 roads in rough terrain.
Earlier I got some problems with some surfaces of the new construction that unwanted connected together. This time I want to get control of all small new "constructions" (parcels and roads) and connect them to the surface. I realize the original surface will be covered 100% of new terrain. How will I be able to connect all the surfaces together so that I can eventually create a single surface with all the new designs? (and run the waterdrop :-)
How to build all surfaces into the system?

I am trying to build a corridor using a conditional slope assembly that considers the roadway and links into the lots.
The corridor is divided into 3 regions. All targeting has been assigned.
The first region appears fine. The second and third show no links beyond the roadway.

i have a drawing i am working and somehow i lost my linetypes that use shape files, anything with text in the linetype work fine. I have tried to reload the shape file, compile it and to no avail. my file directories are pointing in the right direction and everytime i load and compile it goes to correct file and directory.
The reason i say i caused it is they were in the drawing working fine, and 1 or 2 commands later gone, I tried to insert the drawing into a new drawing and that did not work. if i start a new drawing it works fine.

I have an Object ARX application where I consult a TIN surface for elevation samples. I need several thousand point's elevations in a straight line.
I have the surface declared as
CComQIPtr<IAeccTinSurface> mTINSurface;
And given coordinates (x,y) I can easily and successfully find the elevation using
//x and y are given double valuesdouble z;HRESULT result = mTINSurface->FindElevationAtXY(x, y, &z);
//+error treatment
This, however, takes a lot of time when I have to do it thousands of times inside a for-loop varying the x-coordinate. Reading the documentation on IAeccSurface I found the Sample Elevation method (I don't paste the link here, it's pointing to 'invalid HTML' and forbidding me to post). In the hopes of improving performance, this is what I tried:
SAFEARRAY* safearray;SAFEARRAYBOUND bound;bound.lLbound = 0; //zero-basedbound.cElements = number_elements; //does this define the number of samples?safearray = SafeArrayCreate(VT_I8, 1, &bound); //zero based, safe array of X,Y,Z doubles
CComVariant variant(safearray);variant.vt = VT_ARRAY | VT_I8; //type: safe array of doubleHRESULT result = mTINSurface->SampleElevations(x,y,n_x,y,&variant); //sample in line
This is what I took from the description given by the documentation; that the last parameter should be a "VARIANT containing a zero based, one dimensional safe array of X, Y, Z values. ". My problem is that 'result' is always E_FAIL - and I'm not sure why - and 'safe array' is filled with zeroes.
I have the following questions:
Am I passing the right parameters? I have little experience with VARIANT and SAFE ARRAY types.Does the entire Sample Elevation operation fails whenever a single elevation cannot be found? (I have sections without elevation information in the surface - I'm sure the first point (x,y) DOES have a valid elevation value, though). Would I really see performance gain by using Sample Elevation instead of multiple FindElevationAtXY, as I assumed?When calling Sample Elevation, I'm not entirely sure how the sampling is considered. Does the method recognize the size of the array and divides the distance between the initial point and ending point equally, resulting in that many samples?

Is there any external application for creating a section box for autocad? If i use the live section it applies only to solids. Is there any option or an external add on so i can apply to points lines polylines civil 3d object and in general to every object?

I have an ObjectARX application where I consult a TIN surface for elevation samples. I need several thousand point's elevations in a straight line. Initially, I was making thousands of FindElevationAtXY calls, but that proved to be somewhat slow, so I searched and found SampleElevation in the documentation and was hoping it'd provide me with performance gain.
I had some problems, due to my inexperience with VARIANT and SAFEARRAY types, but now I get what seems to be correct results when passing an initial and ending point. Here's a code snippet of my call, which succeeds and gives me the correct elevations;
HRESULT result = mTINSurface->SampleElevations(x,y,n_x,y,&variant); //sample in line
Note that I'm sampling a line along the x-axis (y constant).
The problem i'm facing is that the number of samples along the line provided by the method is far smaller than I expected. I need thousands of points along this line (in fact, I want all points with exact round x-coordinates), and no matter what size I provide for the safe array of doubles given by 'variant', I get only a few hundred points. Furthermore, I've checked and the offset between any two points in the resulting sample is not constant, nor are they the same when I sample a different line (increase y coordinate by one).
Here are my questions: Why are these points chosen by the method - I mean, are they chosen because they are somehow 'significant'?Is there a way to specify the number of points I want along this line?Would it be at all possible to determine a constant offset for the samples (i.e., I want coordinates at specific points x-units apart from each other)?

I have PSE9 and a macbook pro 10.9. I lost the original DVD that came with my purchase of PSE. Some files must have gotten corrupted because I can't open the program without reintalling. It says, "Some of the application components are missing from the application directory. Please reinstall the application." I have the serial number and all and I registered the product. Is there somewhere I can download a new copy to install?

I have a very particular client insisting I recreate a specific lineteype. The previous technician used AutoCAD Architecture 2012 to create a shape within the linetype. I have recreated the shape, with my AutoCAD 2014, but am struggling with creating the linetype 100%, and getting into other files.

I need to beam complex P&IDs for client viewing. The drawings are in AutoCAD2012. I find it difficult to zoom and pan to the desired place. Beaming individual component P&IDs is also not an option as the client usually wants to see the enitre layout first. The entire layout, when beamed is unreadable without zooming. I was hoping for a solution similar to drilling down in databases (clubbing of data when we at the top levels and then the ability to view details when clicking on a particular cell); where only the important lines and symbols are shown at the top levels so that they can clearly be seen on beaming.

I have a builder client who sends house plans in dwg. Recently, I have been receiving a folder full of dwg files for every room, options, etc.. When I try to open, say, the first floor plan, only dimensions show up. If I open up bedroom 3, only that bedroom shows, with no dims or context. How do I get one complete plan all together?

I've been trying to update a client menu and I've gotten most things figured out. They have a fairly elaborate routine set up to make sure our drawings work with their document control system as well as raster design. We are using AutoCAD 2011 and the menu's were meant for 2008.
Everything seems to run well except at this sub module and every time I load a raster drawing with a TIF the routine error's out at the line in Red below. I've tried everything I can think of to keep the routine running, and I want to refrain from just remarking it out, which seems to do the trick, but I do not want to do that unless it's for some other purpose. I just need to get their menus to work on newer versions of AutoCAD.
Private Sub AcadApp_EndOpen(ByVal FileName As String)
Dim sPathPart As String
Dim sFilePart As String
Dim sExtPart As String
Dim lResult As Long
Dim vResult As Variant
Dim bFoundCO As Boolean

I am about to recieve an order to provide drawings to a new client who has requested me to author an new blank drawing title block for the required drawings. The company does however have a Logo and other necessary details.
My question is: What format should the logo be in and how do I transfer this into the drawing title block, bearing in mind that I will most likely have to change the size to suite the various size drawings sheets, namely A0, A1, A2 etc?
I have attempted to search for this information on CT and having found the topic been denied request to open whatever. This is a copy of the notification receive when attempting to open a topic:
"Forbidden You don't have permission to access /forum/showthread.php on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

Is it wise to build blocks to use in 3d models?
I am working on an apartment building. In 2d I created a block of a typical unit and copied and rotated it around as needed. Can I use the same principle in 3d? Can I attach materials inside the block editor? (I built the whole thing as a sketch model with no materials, and now want to make it pretty!)
