AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Hatch Background - Color Mask To Show On Screen Green And Gray But Plot Black And Gray

Feb 27, 2013

My company is switching from ctb files to stb files. With the ctb file, we make concrete hatch with two layers. A top layer with the concrete hatch pattern and a background layer with a solid hatch patern. The ctb file concrete plots the concete hatch black and the solid background hatch light gray. I am using civil 3d 2013 and the hatch allows a seperate background color mask. I am trying to make all my concrete layers (Top of Curb, Curb Flowline, etc.) a certain color scheme, i.e. shades of green. I would like my on screen concrete hatch patern to be a green color with a gray background, but plot the concrete hatch black with a gray background. I can not figure out how to do this without making two layers. Is there a way to use one layer and utilize the background color mask to show on screen green and gray, but plot black and gray?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Station Ticks Display In Plot Preview But Do Not Plot

Nov 29, 2012

I have a stationing line.  I've used the block PTTICL to make ticks.  The ticks display perfectly.  I'll run through a plot preview and the ticks show on the plot preview.  I push plot go to the printer and the ticks are not plotted.

I've checked the layer.  They are on a layer that should print.

I've checked the block.  The block is created on a layer that should print.

I've run through a number of options regarding the alignment label properties and found "display" to be equal to "true."

Everything else plots just fine. Only the station label ticks refuse to plot.  My project is fairly short so the work around was to put a poly line right on top of the tick mark.

AutoCAD LT :: Line On Plot - Not On Screen

Apr 3, 2013

When I plot a drawing on a particular file there is a line on my dimension layer that doesn't appear at any other time.  It only plots when the dimension layer is on but does not appear on the screen so I cannot select it and delete it.  The layer itself seems to be normal like the other layers.  Are there any remedies besides creating a new layer and putting the dimensions on the new layer?

AutoCad :: How To Get CTB Colour To Display On-screen Same As Plot

Oct 26, 2011

I've been using CTB files to manage line colors, thicknesses etc - assigning a specific color number to a line color / thickness etc.

This results in great looking plots, but aren't the colors that appear on-screen.

I was wondering how can I make it look exactly like what you'll get but retain the automation/functionality of CTB files - rather than manually stuffing around with changing line weights/colors etc.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change The Format Of Lat / Long In A Point List Display From Degrees

Apr 4, 2012

Is there any way to change the format of Lat/Long in a C3D point list display from degrees, minutes, seconds to decimal degrees? I have looked pretty hard, but can't find anything. The geodetic calculator only does one item at a time, I think.  Any plug-ins out there? I suppose this could be on a wish list as well.

I am using R2012.and have ended up manipulating point values in Excel-not a quick way of going about it.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Plot In Same Way Than Shown Drawing On Screen

Dec 10, 2013

I have used Microstation before and just used Autocad for 1 month.I am field surveyor and use Autocad for plotting stake out or other measurements. When I have to deliver a pdf drawning, there are 2 important things:

- It's have to be clear to see what I have done

- it's important to see the drawing I used to do job.

Making a new drawing with my measurements on it.To make it readable for the end user, I am using fading (transparency) on my referenced drawing. It is looking fine on the screen, but not on the plot.

On the plot all the colours are coming back to the original (before I change the transparency)I try to look on the plot style, but obviously it is not possible to change the settings for the referenced file, just for the all drawing.

What I am looking for is how to plot what I see on the screen (WYSIWYG)?I have looked for a solution on internet (can read english, danish & french) but I didn't find the solution yet!I would like to know how I can solve this problem?

I have to add, that I have several working sites with a lot of drawings, so I am looking for an easy/quick solution.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Change Plot Setup To Multiple Sheets For Use With Batch Plot

May 21, 2013

I have one drawing per file at model tab. When I need to plot a multiple page file, I use:

Print > Batch Plot.

The problem is that I have to set plot configurations ( plot style table, plot area, paper size, etc) in each file before use Batch Plot.

Now I received 722 files with a wrong Plot Style Table. For this time I change the associated *.ctb file at Plot Style folder, but I will need to associate the right *.ctb to each drawing. It's also common to have to change other properties.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Twist Object Properly

Jun 10, 2013

Essentially, I am attempting to create something similar to this: [URL] .....

But cannot get enough twisting action. I just need to know how to twist an object properly. For example, what I have done is created a two sketches of hexagons on offset planes, and lofted between the two sketches.  If I rotate one hexagon sketch slightly, it will result in a twisting effect. However, if I want to get any significant amount of twisting, rotating the sketch does not work. I have tried with a goil, but that gets the entire object (with a sweep, in this case) to spiral.

I’ve attached an image of what I'm trying to create in 3D .I can make two straight prongs with no problem, but I can’t figure out how to get them to twist around each other as they are in the picture. It’s important that the two prongs are symmetrical and do not merge into one another where they twist.

AutoCAD 2010 :: 3D Curve Sweep Without Twist At The End Of Path?

May 23, 2012

I'm trying to do a 3d curve stair rail. I had the 3d spline path, I had the polyline rail profile, but after I sweep the profile, it end up being twisted at the end of the rail. Same problem happens  when I did a sweep using a helix path, imagine a vertically placed rectangular profile at one end of the path then after using sweep command, the other end was somehow twisted on a certain degree. How can I avoid this twisting problem

See the before and after image. I wanted the rectangle profile to remain vertical throughout the whole sweep

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal - Fold (bend And Twist)

Apr 23, 2012

I have the following sheet metal application: A flat bar steel (strip) 40x1mm is bent and twisted around three cylinders. In our process, the strip is running in loop around these cylinders, like a conveyor-belt. At first, it is bent around the first cylinder (blue). Then, it is bent and twisted around the second cylinder (green). Between these cylinders, a flat part is modelled so that the strip will be bent upwards (twisted) around the next cylinder. The same is done between cylinder two and three.  In praxis, when I bend the strip, no flat part will be present, because the strip is quite stiff, as it is spring steel. In my Inventor model, no stiffness of the strip is taken into consideration.

I am looking for a better way to model this strip, where stiffness of the material is taken into consideration.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Generate Guide Rail To Control Twist

Sep 18, 2012

I am trying to model a forged steel table base so I can create some tooling to reproduce it.  See the attached photo of the base.  I am able to sweep along my 3D projected sketch path but there is a twist at the center that I believe I need a guide rail to control.  I have tried to draw a rail but it fails. 

I suspect I am not drawing my guide rail correctly as to create the slight twist.  I was considering drawing a shallow helix along the 3d sweep path but not sure that this is the best direction to head next.  I have attached the .ipt with the sweep (without guide path being used).

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Dual Screen - Jumping Browser From Right Screen To Middle Of Left Screen

In video (zipped MP4) you see a cutout of both screens, think of screens changing at the left of the browser.

Now, in many cases, after doing an operation, the browser is jumping back to the middle of my graphics in the left screen.
