AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Publish Only Prints One Set Of Sheets When Set For Multiple Sets

Dec 31, 2013

I'm having an intermittent issue with my publish command.  So far the pattern seems to be on drawings with a larger number of sheets (last one was 15, this one is 7).  When I get the publish dialog box, I'll set the number of copies to however many I need but it ends up only printing one set.  It doesn't happen every time.  Just with these two drawings so far.  They have nothing to do with each other and haven't shared any data.  The only similiarity is that they're both older projects that were started some years ago on previous CAD versions.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Publish Of Multiple Sheets Misses Some Profiles And Pipes Sporadically

Feb 16, 2009

When using the publish command to print multiple sheets from Civil 3D, it will sometimes fail to print certain objects. Usually it is a profile. Occasionally it drops some of the pipes. When we plot sheets individually it plots fine. Only C3D objects are affected, not regular ACAD objects. It only seems to be pipes and profiles. This problem is sporadic. It may be drawing specific but the sporadic nature of it makes it hard to say for sure.

The way we set up our drawings, profiles and pipes are almost always DREF's. This appears to be related. If we creat a test drawing with everything in one drawing publish works fine. If we then seperate into two drawings, DREF the data, and then publish again, the pipes disappear (from the plot not the drawing itself).

The same problem occurs on two different printers so I don't think it's driver related.

It started happening when we were on 2008. I thought maybe it was just that version. However, it seems to have gotten worse in 2009.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Sheets Multiple Viewports

Mar 13, 2012

I am creating plan sheets and using the sheet creation tool.  The plan sheets I am looking to make have stacked view, similar to a plan and profile sheet, only they have the horizontal alignment in both views.  

I have a template set up with two viewports, but when I try to create the sheets it puts the same view frame in both of the viewports.  Is there any way to set this template up so that I can have, lets say, STA 100+00 - 110+00 in the top viewport and then STA 110+00 - 120+00 in the bottom viewport.  I understand that I can move the viewports once they are created, but I would rather have that done automatically.  I am not sure if what I want done is possible with Civil 3D.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Can't Publish Multiple DWG Containing Objects To PDF

Mar 29, 2012

the issue is when i try to publish multiple dwg files which containing civil 3d objects including data ref to pdf it won't do it other whatever drawing is currently open.i kinda can see why. because the data ref reading is not programmed in when "invisibly" opening the cad files. xref are autocad native and it works.

so no warnings or anything. just publish the first one and told me it's done. i've seen this years ago when first started using civil 3d but then i just never complained here.

is there a solution for this? what i did before was obviously open each drawing. then publish, huge waste of time. making me hate my job because of repetative tasks. i almost always try to automate.

yesterday made a program to make one surface for each csv file there was hundres of them and basically 2 hour programming and 1 minute to process the files once got the program working.can read subfolders to find csv file too.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Plan And Profile Sheets With Multiple Alignments In The View

May 3, 2013

When creating plan and profile sheets with multiple alignments in the view, what is a common practice in civil 3d?

- Data shortcut all alignments that are in the view into the plan and profile model

- Create a dwg that has all the alignments data shortcutted and xref that into the plan and profile dwg

- Create a dwg for each alignment and xref into an overall alignment dwg via attach and then xref the overall into the pp sheets dwg model.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Viewframe Groups And Creating Multiple Double Plan View Sheets?

Jan 10, 2013

I new to using the view frame groups we do allot of double plan view 11x17 sheets using an alignment on top of MrSid aerial drawings. It is very time consuming to setup the viewports along the alignment doing the old fashion method of copying the page setup and sliding the model space along the alignment for the next sheet.  I understand the plan profile and cross section methods of creating multiple sheets and how the viewframe group works for those type of sheets.  I'm just not sure how to create a dwt template for one plan view on top of another plan on the same sheet with to viewports.  I know I'm not the only person that creates road cl double planviews when your not concerned about a profile.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: PUBLISH - No Longer Asked About Saving Current List Of Sheets?

Dec 12, 2012

When we publish we are always asked if we wish to save the current list of sheets.

See attached screenshot.

One of my users no longer gets this option.

Every time he publishes the program goes directly to the Save List As dialog box so he can name/save a .DSD file.  He no longer gets the option of a box asking him if he wants to save the current list of sheets.

My guess is some variable got changed that has removed the option of being prompted about saving the .DSD file.

P.S. We're using AutoCAD 2012.

AutoCAD .NET :: Cannot Store Multiple Selection Sets

Nov 15, 2012

From the AutoDESK docs [URL] ......

"AutoCAD.Application.ActiveDocument.SelectionSets. Add method
Not needed/provided" in VB.Net

Thus 'Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application. DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.SelectionSets' will not work.

So, I can't store multiple selection sets in VB.Net?

Why is it not provided? Or is there some other way to do that?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Schedule Tag With Multiple Property Sets

Mar 16, 2012

I've got a multi-family building where I'm trying to create a schedule tag that will number walls sequentially in a view drawing. The units are elements that are then brought into a construct and mirrored and rotated as needed.

The first thing I did was to create a Property Set  that uses Level and Manual property set that automatically increments to create a property called Unit Number. Then created a tag that will number the units in my building i.e. : 201 202 etc.  This works fine.

I then created a Property Set to apply to the walls that uses the Unit Number from the other Property Set along with a Manual Property Set that increments as well to create a wall tag.  What I am expecting to get is 201-01, 201-02 etc.  What I’m getting is ?-01, ?-02 etc.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: 2013 Crashing After Multiple Prints

Feb 18, 2013

When plotting from AutoCAD Map 3D 2013, after 7-8 plots, the programme crashes (with a warning to report the crash to Autodesk).  This happens whether we plot to pdf or to the printer (HP 5500dn).  This is happening to every user in my office.  We print across a University wide network for the printer (which I think is using the HP Universal Print Driver), but the pdf creator is on each individual machine (no network needed).  It's irritating when you are trying to plot 15-20 figures and have to keep re-starting AutoCAD.

The machines are Viglen, 64bit, Windows 7, 8GB RAM, 3.3GHz.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Multiple Sheet Sets Sharing Same Layouts?

Jan 21, 2013

I am in the process of generating a separate package which is a suppliment to the main package for a project. The sheets from the suppliment will be incorporated into the main project, but many sheets from the main project will not be included in the suppliment. 

My thought was to make a separate sheet set that shares layouts with the main set which I was able to do by making a copy and renaming the .DST file. Now I see that supposedly a single layout cannot exist in two sheet sets. I ended up working around this by creating a sheet in SSM with the same # and Name in each Sheet Set and was able to get them to appear in both. Want to find out if I'm creating a landmine of a problem down the road or if there is a better way to do what I'm doing. In the past, I beleive we simply selectively printed only the appropriate sheets but on that project it was cumbersome and at the scale of this project it will be worse.

AutoCad :: Sheet Sets - Multiple A3 Layouts Printed As 1PDF?

Feb 2, 2014

how to take multiple A3 Layouts, and instead of having to plot and select each layout, can I select all the layouts and have them Pdf into one document.

I have had a look at publish and tried to do it, but they are still printing as individual sheets. What exactly does the term "sheet sets" mean. Is this what I am trying to achieve or is this a different action?

AutoCad :: Multiple Plotting Of Different Sheets In 1 Drawing

Nov 8, 2012

In my company they draw out multiple pages of construction drawings in 1 file. They do all their sketching off to the side and then bring the finish detail onto the sheet that will be plotted out later.

They then start a new sheet below it and continue onward until they have 20 plus drawings in one DWG file.

What I want to do is print each drawing individually to whatever plotter or printer I set up. I can't batch file as I understand it because there are so many pages of a print in 1 drawing. Because all the DWG file has multiple pages I have to go thru several windows to get each page plotted out.

Is there a script or batch file that I can use that I can set up the plot and then for example highlight the page I want to send to the printer then go to the next print, highlight it and it gets sent to the printer without having to set up the plot again?

We use Autocad 2000 so I am working with a basic set up here without a lot of frills the later versions have. I am trying to get them to seperate the pages but that isn't working for the earlier drawings they have done.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Printing Drawings On Multiple Sheets?

Aug 15, 2012

I've got a drawing that is 14"x12" and have a printer that can only handle 8.5 x 11 sheets. I need to print it out full scale because I plan on using the drawing to cut something out. In school, I have seen my teacher  print the drawing across multiple sheets, and then he simply tapes the sheets together. I have tried every configuration possible and have had no success.

AutoCad :: Publish DWG To Multiple PDF Or DWF Files?

Apr 15, 2013

I have a client that needs me to deliver my drawings in PDF format as multiple files with a specific naming convention. What I am doing is publishing to multiple files then renaming each file individually which is time consuming and prone to error.

I was hoping to come up with a way to automate the process.

Here's what I have: Each layout contains a title block block, lets call it "tblock". Within this block there are attributes for drawing title, sheet number etc, lets call these attributes "dt", "sn" respectively. Each layout also contains an Xref which contains a block which has attributes for revision data such as date, revision, issue description etc Lets call the xref "XA1", the block "Xtblock" and the attribute I need "Xrev". In visual basic it might look something like XA1.Xtblock.Xrev

Here's what I need: export each layout as {sn} {dt} Rev {Xrev}.pdf

Now I have used VB to automate Excel tasks and create Database applications so I would describe myself as "handy", just not used VB within Autocad before. I have also not used LISP before either so I'm a bit of a layman in that respect.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - Create Ordinate Sets From Opposite Edges Without Multiple Zeros?

Jul 5, 2012

I'm detailing a simple square plate with a good number of holes in it.  I create an ordiate set running vertically along the LH edge and select the holes that are close to that side.  Origin is the lower LH corner.  Works great, easy.

The holes that are closer to the RH side though I'd like to show on that side.  So I go to create a second ordinate set for the RH side and choose the lower RH corner as the origin and choose my holes that are close to that edge.  The 2nd set will automatically show a second "0.000" dimension on the bottom edge and I can't supress it by right clicking.

Is there a better way to do this?  What I've done now is to not use a set but just choose ordinate dimension and go from the opposite edge, which works....  But alignment is better with a set.
