AutoCAD Civil 3D :: File Name And Path Change With Shortcuts
Apr 25, 2012
Have existing hotel site plan project folder and I copied it to new location and renamed folder and file names I have a grading plan that has spot elevations from data shortcut referenced surface. Is there a way to reference the new revised surface, that has same name and have the elevations update with the new surface and then delete the original referenced surface.

I need to update both the path and the Source file name in Data Shortcuts editor. Â If I update the path, it looks in the new path for the old file name, and throws an error. Â If I update the File name, it looks in the old path for the new file name, and throws the same error.

What exactly is this tool used for if you cant change the source file name or the path? and why would the interface let me poke into these fields and give me the option to find and replace if they cnnot be edited
So how can I change the Source File name and path?

I’ve recreated and replaced a corrupt drawing, which contained surfaces that were data referenced into multiple files. Is there a way to update the data shortcuts, so other drawings referencing the surfaces are unaffected? I’ve tried moving the corrupt drawing to an archived folder and naming the new drawing and surfaces to match the old. However, I’m not able to repair the broken shortcuts in the other drawings. The surfaces are referenced in a large construction plan set that includes sections, profiles, and numerous labels based on the surfaces – it will be very time consuming to create a new reference in each drawing.
(I'm using Civil 3D 2013.)

i have this drawing which i created data reference to the wrong project in the wrong coordinate system and worked off that. then now i am trying to correct it. so i copied the dtm and did coordinate transformation and got that right. now the model drawing is still linked to the original dtm from the other project folder.
if i remember right back in 2007 version there was a completely built in shortcut editor which allows you to change the path in current drawing. now it's all greyed out. there is no access. so is there a way to bypass this? probably pretty common thing to do. say you want to try different version of the same object to try your design just swap it back and forth.
They should make a right click button on the data shorts in current drawing and says "browse data reference" not show up when only broken reference occurs.
one way i can think off now is copy the files to local. disable network drive, then let it broken reference show up then browse to desktop one then delete desktop one and hopefully it get the broken reference again and not look for the very original one. i think it's probably gonna do that, there is some "hidden" thing stored in the object to point to the original path which not available to users.

I just opened my corridor drawing for the first time in 2009 and was greeted by this error:
Macro file not found at original path specified in subassembly. Updated macro file location to path defined by AECCCONTENT_DIR environment variable.
I'm not familiar with the maco file and the only post I found relating to this said the AECCCONTENT_DIR environment variable was abandoned in 2007.

I have many drawings that were created with the xref's as full path and I need them to be relative path. I would just go in and reatch them as relative path but the drawings are complete and there are different layers frozen in each one.

changing the file path for links in an Illustrator document?
Â
For example, let's say my Illustrator document is stored at: /Volumes/Storage/Projects/Client/AAA001/designs/concept1.ai
Â
and I have placed 2 linked visuals:
Â
/Volumes/Storage/Projects/Client/AAA001/visuals/big_retouch.psd
/Volumes/Storage/Projects/Client/AAA001/visuals/flattened.jpg
 Â
When I open the .AI I noticed that the reference to the visuals is under a %DocumentFiles section:
%%DocumentFiles:/Volumes/Storage/Projects/Client/AAA001/visuals/retouc hed.psd
%%+/Volumes/Storage/Projects/Client/AAA001/visuals/flattened.jpg
Â
I need to replace "/Volumes/Storage/Projects" with "/Volumes/Projects". (There are some more complex replacements I need, but let's start here.)

I want to change the shortcuts for osnap on/off (default F3) and ortho on/off (default F8 ) to either F1 and F2, or some letter like q and w, or ctrl+w and ctrl+e.
I cant find them under cui-->all commands. Don´t know if they are there somewhere.
Is it possible to change them to either of the above shortcuts?
I prefer F1 and F2 if it´s possible, then q and w and last if neither of the other two is possible ctrl+w and ctrl+e.

I can't change the keyboard shortcuts in max. If i change them and restart max, the changes a revert.The problem is, that max stores some config files into &#xPr;ogramFiles%, but a normal user (without admin rights) can't write to files there.
e.g.: DefaultUI.clrx and DefaultUI.kbdx are stored into: C:Program FilesAutodesk3ds Max 2013en-USUI
3dsmax.exe gets a "ACCESS DENIED" from the OS but this error would be silently ignored IMHO the error should be raised, so that the user knows about unsaved settings...
For this i have created:URL....
Everyone can reproduce this behaviour with process monitor from sysinternals. You will see this:
11:35:20,0912964 3dsmax.exe 5956 CreateFile C:Program FilesAutodesk3ds Max 2013en-USUIDefaultUI.clrx ACCESS DENIED Desired Access: Generic Write, Read Attributes, Disposition: OverwriteIf, Options: Synchronous IO Non-Alert, Non-Directory File, Attributes: N, ShareMode: Read, Write, AllocationSize: 0

Is it possible to redirect a data shortcut?
I have a large model containing 40km of pipeline. The pipe network and alignment were then brought into separate drawing via data shortcuts where the sheet layouts and long sections were generated.
The pipeline is now under construction and we need to compile the as-built drawings as the pipeline is constructed. I want to make a copy of the model containing the pipe network and alignment, then update that to reflect the as-built information.
I also want to copy the drawings (containing the layouts and long sections), but these would still reference the model used to generate the construction drawings.
Is it possible to redirect these data shortcuts?
(Using Civil3D 2011) - we could upgrade to 2012 if required.

I had a few problems moving a project from 2012 to 2014. After a couple of tries I got everything set except the main alignment. When I originally used the Data Shortcut Editor to change the path of the shortcuts. I noticed that most of the paths were mostly UNC paths. So I replaced them with the current UNC path.
Now when trying to fix the one shortcut I've noticed that there is now a duplicate of the UNC path shortcut and one using the pathed network drive. So there is now a total of 3 references for each shortcut. I don't know yet if this is part of the problem but it doesn't look like it's a good thing.
My first inclination would be to delete all but the newest XML file for each reference.

Out of the blue today, my OSNAP shortcuts disappeared. Â Whenever I'd bring up the menu, I could not hit the E key on the keyboard for Endpoint or any other shortcut keystroke. Â Upon more research, this applied to all menus. Â Turns out this is not an Autodesk issue but a Windows setting. Â Here's how to restore if you encounter this as well.
1. Hit the Windows + U keys to bring up the Ease of Accees Center
2. Click on "Make the keyboard easier to use
3. Check Underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys

I cant get this one. I have created an alignment in a drawing and created a shortcut. When I data shortcut that alignment into drawing "A", its all good. Alignment starts at station 10+00. When I do the same data shortcut into drawing "B" the alignment is starting at station 0+83.33. Why?

I see that keyboard shortcuts in revit 2013 can be eported as xml and imported back from an xml? Is it possible to export the shorcut list as a simple txt file or excel file, for printing purpose. Some of the bim modellers in my office would like to print the shorcut and stick it on their desk.

Recently we have discovered a problem (bug?) with the survey database. We usually import our field data from our Trimble controllers into the survey database (SDB) through Trimble Link. We have been very careful to get all the survey database settings right, so that the data comes through correctly and have been successful up until the last few weeks. We find this a good workflow, where we are able to make edits to our field data (change target heights etc) easily in the SDB and comparisons with Trimble Business Center and direct output on-screen in the controller confirm that our data is reliable. We often have both GPS (long Network RTK vectors from the nearest network base station) and total station observations in the same file.
The issue is that, as the fbk file is imported, the survey database settings change to reflect the content of the fbk file. The "Atmospheric conditions" and "Curvature and Refraction" settings, which I have purposely left unticked (the controller applies these corrections), become ticked. This throws out our heights, especially on the long GPS lines.
We do have the option for a workaround, which involves going back into the Edit Survey Database Settings after import and updating the data in the sdb, but this is clumsy.
This seems to be similar to the issue that was discussed here. Â However, we have only just encountered this issue in the past month or two, which coincides with when we rolled out C3D 2012 Service Pack 4 across the office. We are planning on implementing 2014 soon, so I have tried it out on 2014 as well, with the same result.
Is this something that others are dealing with too? Perhaps there's some sneaky setting somewhere that I haven't found which locks down the SDB settings preventing them from being changed on import? Otherwise, I think this is a bug.
I am also bracing myself for some comments regarding the dangers of using GPS in the SDB!

I can only change the layer color.
But I can't change the cross simbol, its drwaing scale.
Also cant view the point number,....
Maybe I cant view or set these properties when points were added using   "Point Files" option.??

So I've got a customer who's upgraded drawings from a previous version of Civil 3D to Civil 3D 2013. One drawing contains data shortcuts to pipe networks, alignments, and surfaces. At the drawing open the pipe networks are updated, but none of the other data shortcuts are. Removing the pipe network data shortcuts allows the other data shortcuts to be loaded normally. Using SYNCHRONIZEREFERENCES updates all of the data shortcuts normally in the darwing. So I strongly suspect the pipe networks are the cause of the issue. Opening a new drawing and creating a data shortcut doesn't exhibit the same issues. Also WBlocking the trouble drawing doesn't work either.

I'm not getting any hits that are current on this. How do I rename or delete a data shortcut folder?
C3D still sees the original folders and names after deleting or renaming them using Windows Explorer.

I'm running Civil 3d 2010
I have opened a drawing created by someone else and see that it is loaded with data shortcuts and they all seem to be working properly and displaying fine. The problem is that I would like to add some more shortcuts to the project yet I cannot find the folder where they are located on our server. I have opened up source drawings for every one of them and there are no data shortcut folders located in the same path as the source drawings nor in my project file. They have been stored miscellaneously somewhere on my server. I have tried searching by name (*.xml) for the data shortcuts on my server but the names are too generic and I get to many hits to locate the one I need. Is there any way to list a data reference and the program tell you the folder where it is getting it from?

For some reason when I try to "Create Reference" to bring in my Alignment, Finished Ground and Existing Ground I get three different alignment data shortcuts instead of them grouping into one. I am trying to find out where in my workflow this all went wrong.
I have a .dwg that just has my alignment files in it. Then I make a new drawing and data shortcut in those alignments and Surface. I make my profiles and then create the data shortcuts for those. I start a New drawing and try to reference the alignment and profile and I get duplicated that aren't grouped. If you take a look at the two .bmp's you can see what happens.
The Purple highlighted area is how I want it to show up and that one worked just fine. Same work flow. The yellow is what is giving me a hard time.
