AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sheet Not Syncing - Forced Resync But It Won't Save
Aug 7, 2013
We are having this problem a lot recently with our projects.
I have a 125 page set and I just got into modify a sheet and the surface and profiles are gone. I force a sync using "synchronizereferences" and voila everything looks as it should. I purge and audit, save and close. I reopen it and once again the surface and profiles are gone.
We are using C3D 2013 with service pack 2 installed
Just switched to 2012 from 2010. When I try to edit the description format field in the properties window of a selected cogo point, I can't type in caps, it's all lower case. If I right click and edit the point, I can use capital letters, however. (running C3D 2012 sp4, Win7 64bit, 8GB)
I am trying to create a sheet set with sheet set properties for title blocks but every time I close sheet set manage I lose the properties I typed in .
I'm just learning Lightroom 5. I've imported pics successfully from my compact flash card and from my hard disk to an external drive. But have decided I want to rename (in Finder) some of the folders. How do I resync the names in the Catalogue?
How people deal with multiple revisions of one sheet with sheet set manager, basically I want the cover sheet of drawings to have a list of drawings including the revision letter and revision date and on each individual sheet keep track of historical revisions
There is the current sheet revision and date fields.Does everyone usually just update these and manually keep track of historical revisions else where in there title block?
I was creating a new sheet set in the sheet set manager as I have created new drawings to be added to the old one. When I do this and browse to the directory of drawings, once I hit next it only wants to create a sheet with a few drawings in the directory. There are 22 drawings in the directory and is leaving out about 18 when it creates the sheet set.
I used a vectorising program (vectormagic) and I get a dxf format file. Now I am trying to edit it with Autocad (2011) mas it seems to exist a kind of grid with predefined dots and I can only start and finish a line in its intersections. I already tried the grid and ortho commands without success.
I am new with AutoCAD (I have plenty of experience with SolidWorks and Inventor). This is the link to the dwg file (saved by AutoCAD. Tomorrow I can upload the original dxf file) [URL] .......
I'm aware that Photoshop is not the best program for working with vector files. Because of the kind of work I'm doing, I need to open vector files (mostly EPS) in PS throughout the day and work on them using specific filters that I have.
In all previous versions of PS, when I opened a vector file there were no problems. The files opened exactly as they were saved. Since I upgraded to CS4, PS has started forcing a resolution of 72 dpi and CMYK mode when I know for a fact the file was created at 300 dpi and in RGB mode. I know it seems minor, but when you're working on 100 + files per day, it really cuts into your workflow.
I am starting to use the Sheet Set Manager and I am just wondering if there is a way to "save as" instead of "rename & number".
We have drawing sets that we need to do Work as Executed drawings for which means we need to copy the sheet set and all the drawings with a "-WAE" suffix. Currently the only options I can find are
1) Copy the original drawings and sheet set, rename the set sheet, then use rename and number to rename files and paste originals back.
2) Copy and rename sheet set and files in explorer and then open new sheet set and remove old files and add new ones...
Would love to be able to just select sheet set, save as and create a copy of the sheet set and all dwgs in it with -WAE suffix.
When a mixed RGB/CMYK PDF is opened in Illustrator CS6, Illustrator forces a conversion to one color space or the other. See this screenshot: [URL]
I assume this is a limitation of Illustrator and there's no way to keep both color spaces. Under that assumption, Is it possible to choose the profiles used for the conversion from RGB to CMYK? Can Illustrator be made to use the RGB and CMYK profiles defined in its Color Settings to make this conversion?
Installed Elements 10 today. When browsing for a destination folder for very first project a "Serious Error" message box is displayed and program forced to shut down. What is this and how do I fix??
I am having an issue with saving the merge control variable to "Lines Merge" under the Sheet Set Publish Options. I have full rights to the sheet set file, and can change the variable to make a plot, but it gets reset everytime I close program and reopen.
When I create a set of sheets from an alignment and I specify my data references etc, I want to create individual drawings for each sheet. The problem is that whenever I do this, it does not export also the base XREFs for the model drawing. I keep getting an error saying - Cannot create XREF's.
I have the latest version of Autodesk 360 and I am using Autocad LT 2014.
There seems to be no pattern for when the Sync gets stuck, but occasionally Autodesk 360 will sync indefinitely and it causes AutoCAD to run extremely slow. Restarting the computer fixes it but it has been happening a few times every week. I have attached my ADSync.log file for review.
Since I have decided to use the 'sync settings online' however now when I try to open 13 or 14 stall on opening the only way I can get round it is by opening windows task manager and ending the 'acSettingSync.exe' and the 'acCloudManager.exe'. This doesn't work everytime but 75% of the time.
I have 64 bit machine, Windows 7, kipp plotter, and two sharp printers.
When I send a sheet set manager plot to any of my output devices I get an autocad error. That boots me out of Autocad. I have used this in the past with 32 bit machine, Windows XP , kip plotter and two sharp printers and have had no issues. It worked great.
way to renumber an entire sheet set without having to stop at each subset? Currently, I right click on a sheet and select "rename & renumber". The Rename and Renumber dialog box pops up and I type "1" then click on "next", type "2", "next", and so on. This continues until the end of the subset, the stops. Then I have to right click on a sheet in the next subset and start over.
I want to renumber the whole plan set without stopping at each subset. Obviously, I can get rid of the subsets, but that isn't my question. I want to keep the subsets and have the ability to renumber the whole set.
Rubber sheeting a pdf with 2014? It now asks you yo select an image. Since a pdf is not an image not sure how to accomplish this. WHY DID THEY CHANGE THIS?
Today, my question is about sheet set manager for civil 3D drawings.When I doing create sheet set, in the 3rd step "Choose Layouts", I browse the folder which is stored my all of drawings into the sheet set manager dialogue window. But only part of drawings inserted. All of Civil 3D drawing (included plans and profiles) did not into it
Basically, I want to get the sheet set to automatically label in my title block the TOTAL sheets of the sheetset. I have a field within each drawing for the current page number of the sheetset, that is an easy one, what is hard is how do I code the second field to display the LAST page of the sheetsets page number?
Example:
My text looks like this: Page 4 / 10. Say I have 10 sheets, all in the sheetset and numbered. What I have done in the past is set the first page number to Current Sheet Page Number, but in each sheet set the second part to the last page number, in this case sheet 10. The problem comes later if I add in a sheet or two, to push the total sheets to say 12, I would then have to go through each sheet individually to change that last page component to sheet 12 instead of 10.
Is there an easy way (and Im sure there is) to just set that last field to automatically reference the page number of the final sheet in the sheetset, no matter if it changes or not? How do you do it?

I am struggling to get SSM to work in C3D. I have never really used it in normal AutoCAD, so totally new to it. I have setup a plan an profile *.dwt template with our companies title block in it, and populated the attributs with sheet set fields. But when I go through the Plan & Production process, it populates the SSM with mny sheets, but I dont think it has used my fields, as when I right click the sheets and go to properties, I cannot see the custom fields I put in the title block. What is the process of getting these fields into my SSM?
I have a project with a sheet set (both created in C3D 2012) that was working fine up until a couple of days ago. Now, when I open the sheet set, there is nothing there. And any sheet set I open is blank.

I typically import layouts into my sheet set. Looking for some information on setting up a better sheet set template with layout created that just need to be populated with my views on how others use sheet set manager.

Is it possible to set up a project in inventor that when you save it locally it will also c to the 360 cloud location?Or must you set up a project with save paths directly to local 360 partition? Then syncing is done automatically from there?
Every time I try to select the text of an item in the open recent list the recent list will disappear before I can select it. I've discovered that I must carefully move my mouse pointer down the left column that precedes the entries in order to select any of them. Autodesk, could you fix this so that anywhere on each item is selectable and the recent list stays open until the mouse moves off of it?
It is said that a fool's voice is known by multitude of words... I'm just writing this stuff instead of saying it outloud... that's my loophole.
