AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Feature Lines And Sites

May 6, 2012

I am new to civil 3d. I am building a site down the side of a mountain which consists of 4 tiers/ pads with different levels. Each of the 4 pads has its own feature line. To prevent any confusion or attractions of the feature lines to each other i have moved them to a site that i created called temp site locations. 

What is the best way and location to do each of these gradings and how do i tie them all back on to the same drawing ? I assume (maybe wrongly) to do each separately and copy back into the the real drawing.

Do i need to create a new site for each pad. If i do my grading in the temporary site when i bring them back to the real site will the interact with the other feature lines.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Turn Off Alignment Views In Different Sites

Apr 5, 2012

My alignments have been created not under Sites and I am copying them to different Sites as needed.  I am copying appropriate profiles along with them - an existing from surface and 1 proposed.

1. Should I copy the Profile Views? - will this create a copy of the profile view directly over the original profile view?

What are the benefits / disadvantages of copying / not copying the profile view along with the profile?

More importantly,

2. How do I turn OFF-ON copies of the alignments and annotation in my Plan View?

If I right-click alignment properties in a Site and set the Object Style to NO DISPLAY - this turns off the alignment, but not the annotation. 

If I right-click on the alignment labels, Edit Alignment Labels - I am looking at a complex dialog box with lots of drop downs - a bit lost in here.  What about a 1-click setting to NO DISPLAY the layers like I can find for the alignment itself?

Do I need to create/copy a bunch of new Styles?  Not sure exactly where to go or start.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sites / Feature Lines / Land XML

Oct 30, 2013

I brought a site into a drawing by LandXML which had 35 feature lines in it.  How do you get the actual linework of the feature lines to show up in your drawing?  It shows them in the site but the linework is not there.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Move Multiple Feature Lines Between Sites?

Aug 20, 2012

Move multiple feature lines between sites?

Is there a way to move all the feature lines in a surface from one site to another site all at once?  I know how to do them one at a time, but when I select them all, right-click "move to site...", it does nothing.

What is the most expedient way to import multiple sites (surveys) into one Survey database?

Could you import into seperate networks or would you simply import into different point groups?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Importing Multiple Building Sites As ADSK Files

Jan 2, 2014

I am working on a project where I need to bring in multiple building site files from Revit as .adsk files to one Civil 3D model. The first building always imports just fine.  For any building after the first, I get the following message:

"The selected file contains a definition of a building site that is already in use."

"What would you like to do?"

"Update the definition of the existing building site (cancel the import and use the selected file to update the definition of the existing building site.)" - THIS OPTION REPLACES THE FIRST BUILDING WITH THE NEW BUILDING I HAVE SELECTED

"Browse to another file (display the file browse dialog to select a different file.)"

My team and I have tried every we can think of including the following (see attached):

Renaming the files Moving the files to different folders Importing each building site into a new file and copy and pasting into the model (this works until someone tries to import a building site, which will inevitably happen and ruin this work around)Double-checking all related settings.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Line Name Duplicated Exception

Dec 23, 2013

In Civil 3D we can create several new sample line groups and their sample lines can have the same name in other sample line groups.e.g

SLG_1:   

Sample line names:

1
2
3
4

SLG_2:   

Sample line names:

1
2
3
4

However, If I create a new sample line group with API and after new sample lines, if other sample line name(of other SLG) has the same name, Civil 3D throws Exception.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Merging Duplicated Files But With Unique Grading And Surfaces

Jun 8, 2012

I started with a points file which I created an existing surface called EG. I then used a number of feature line to create the gradings, grading surfaces and associated volume surfaces (compared to EG) also had other drawing elements and aerial photo in place. I had a lot of grading scenarios to do and it was all in one file. It was getting out of hand, so I duplicated the file, deleted the gradings (retained the EG surface) then added another set of new gradings and volume surfaces against EG. I did this in 4 files. So now I have multiple files that contain duplicates of the same EG surface and other features, but have unique gradings and surfaces referenced to those individual EGs.

Files all have similar structure:

+Various features (duplicated in all files)

  - base aerial photo

  - other drawing elements

+Surfaces

  - EG surface (duplicated in all files)

  - Grading A-1 surface

  - Grading A-2 surface

  - Grading A-1 volume surface

  - Grading A-2 volume surface

+Site A

  - Grading A-1

  - Grading A-2

I recognise now that I should have data shared the EG surface from 1 file (and xrefed the other common drawing elements??) but given my situation now, what is the recommend way of putting it all together?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Unable To Use FTP Sites

Dec 6, 2012

I am having a problem accessing my FTP site through autocad because my user name is too long, and before you say anything no I cannot change it, its a company account.

It looks like the input box on the 'add/manage FTP locations' windows for user is limited to 26 creators which is a little odd. where the data is stored so I can either edit the information in text pad myself or if there is another way around it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sharing ILogic Rules Between Remote Design Sites

Nov 22, 2013

I am just starting to use ilogic for some design files.  We have two design sites connected with Vault Collaboration 2012. 

What is the best practice for sharing the ilogic rules between the sites?

I was planning on making an ilogic rules folder at the root of my workspace and having Vault manage the external rules.  However, I don't see the rules listed when I check-in a file that uses them. 

Do I have to add the rules to my template files?  If so, how do I make changes to the rules without editing every file created with the templates?

We will be moving to Vault and IV 2014 after the first of the year, if that makes any difference.

I have started getting duplicate geometry in my dynamic blocks. I have a strech feature in a block and it works fine. I go in block editor and make a change, and save it. I then see duplicate geometry, in the old position, and in the new. I erase the block and re0insert it. I still have the double geometry. I open the block in block editor again, and all od the geometry seems to be copied (double geometry).

Photoshop :: Clipart Sites For Night Club Style...

Jun 2, 2009

style flyer cards that generally are seen in and around night clubs and bars.  I really dont want to grab random images around the net for obvious reasons.  Does anyone know of any clipart sites of mainly photos of girls dancing, DJ's and everything in that field?  Prefer a free service though I doubt there is such a thing but a cheap pay one will be fine too.  Really dont want a "pay by the image" thing either.

Xara :: Create Vector Illustrations For Micro-stock Sites?

Oct 29, 2012

using Xara to make cartoons and illustrations for sale on microstock sites such as Dreamstime, Fotolia etc. Would the files produced by Xara be acceptable for these sites? (they seem to be fairly heavily biased towards illustrator, as far as I could make out). And is it worth trying to make a few bucks this way, or is the market already oversaturated?

VideoStudio :: Transitions - Edited / Duplicated

Jan 23, 2011

I've been making a video with about 400 photos on it and am using various transitions.

What I can't work out what to do is how can I edit a transition then save or copy that edited version of the transition off somewhere so I can use it multiple times? It seems I get the 'base' transition, can add it to the timeline then have to edit each and every transition - it takes hours!

Lightroom :: Images In 4.3 Suddenly Have Been Duplicated

Jan 4, 2013

All of my 20,000 images in LR 4.3 were suddenly duplicated.  All the adjustments, ratings,just as if I had selected all and clicked "Create virtual Copy".  Is there a way to eliminate duplicate images or undo this mystriuos process?  In checking, the second image is a copy of the JPEG image which I exposrted to another location.  How can I handle these to somehow get rid of them or do they really not do anything except clutter up the content?

Photoshop :: How To Delete Part Of A Duplicated Layer

Jun 16, 2012

I am learning to make an envelope and the tut calls for me to make little sewed rectangles around the edges which are to be colored red and blue every other rectangle.
 
Draw the Rectangle > Ctrl + T > Right click > Skew >  and then
 
Ctrl + Alt + T to Duplicate > press right arrow key to move and repeat until the end of the envelope > and then
 
Duplicate Layer > change color from blue to red
 
Here is where I am lost:
 
I am suppose to select every other rectangle and delete them in order for the rectangles to be blue, red, blue red . How to go about doing this and I have been unable to find a solution in faq's or other posts within the forum(s). I'm not even certain how to ask the question so, that may be part of my quest denied
 
In Inkscape I would just ungroup them so that I could manipulate/delete them as individual shapes and then (if needed) use the rubber band to recollect them and click a regroup button. I cannot seem to find anything similar to this in PS.

Photoshop :: How To Update Duplicated Layer To Its Original

Feb 20, 2012

I'm trying to paint over a picture but I'm painting over it with no opacity (which means yes, I'm painting over the picture invisibly) because I want to be able to see what I'm painting and the paint would block out some parts or "shadows" and contrasts of the image that I might've missed. So the problem here was how bothersome it was getting to constantly switch the opacity bar from 0% to 100% (I need to also see where I'm painting and check over any mistakes). So I thought I could just duplicated the painted layer so I would only have to click the duplicated layer instead of using the opacity bar to switch. But the duplicated layer is only left off to when it was first duplicated. It doesn't show the recent parts that I painted over. I remember taking Computer Graphics once and the teacher mentioning something about duplicating a layer and having that duplicated layer constantly updated to match the original layer (from every mark that is placed on the original layer).

So basically how would I make a duplicated layer update to its original layer every second?

Photoshop Elements :: 11 Restore Has Duplicated All Pictures?

Sep 8, 2013

I recently upgraded my computer from Windows XP to Windows 7 installing a new hard disk in the process.
 
Before starting I used PSE 6 to backup the catalogue.
 
I installed Windows 7 on the new disk and copied all my data files (including pictures) from the old HDD. 
 
I then restored the catalog on the new drive after installing PSE 11.
 
All seemed fine, so I carried on working on my pictures.
 
Now some weeks later I notices that the restore created duplicates of ALL my pictures, so for example, as well as _MG_0876.CR2, there is also a copy of it called _MG_0876-1.CR2 which is the one that is actually in the catalogue.
 
This seems really silly at best.  If I restore the catalog, the restore should ASK what to do about duplicates, not just create thousands of duplicate files willy-nilly.
 
The ONLY easy solution to this mess I could find was to delete the entire fiolder structure and restore the backup again, which has resulted in my loosing at least two weeks worth of work in the form of image editing.  Going through and manually deleting files in Windows Explorer just wasn't an option.
 
The manual doesn't mention that this will happen at all.
 
1. What is the recommended procedure?
 
2. Why isn't this described in the manual?
 
3. Why doesn't the restore ASK what to do with duplicates?

Lightroom :: Duplicated Folders In 3.6 If National Characters In Name

Jan 1, 2012

After upgrading to 3.6 I noticed that LR is creating duplicated folders if the name contains international characters, but only in the database -  in the file system there is still only one folder.
 
In this case I had an existing folder "åre". I dragged some photos into it, but instead of them being added to the existing one, another folder with the same name showed up. It is impossible to move photos between the two "åre", as there is only one folder on disk and LR detects that the file is already there..

Photoshop Elements :: All Photos Duplicated After Restoring Catalog

Jan 12, 2014

I recently had my computer reformatted and notice that following Photoshop Elements reinstall and catalog restore all my photos have been duplicated in the Adobe/digital photos folder. I have read that this is due to my computer tech restoring all photos in the original folder structure prior to me executing the catalog restore (I should have done my research first). My question is what can I do now to eliminate the duplicates? Do I delete all photos and the Adobe folders or is there an alternative?

GIMP :: Automatic Names Of Duplicated Layer - Proposed Alternate Algorithm

Jul 24, 2012

It's a common practice when building layers to duplicate existing layers as a start. Additionally, it is good practice that layer names be meaningful.

Suppose I start with the following layer: layer 1

If I duplicate that layer, it seems reasonable I'd get: layer 2. Instead I get: layer 1 copy

Then if I duplicate again I get: layer 1 copy#1, even though this is copy #2.

I propose the following: An option be available whereby user is queried for name of any layer which is to be generated. This is easier than having to edit automatically generated layer names.If automatic layer names are to be generated, code first checks if previous layer name ends in a sequence of digits. If yes, then these digits are incremented as an integer until a unique layer name is generatedIf the layer name does not end in a sequence of digits, then "#1" is appended to the layer name, and the "1" incremented until a unique name is generated.

So with this algorithm:layer 1 would become layer 2 for a first copy, then layer 3 for a second copy, etc.background would become background#2 for a first copy, then background#3 for a second copy, etc.

The problem with using "copy" in the layer name is that it is probably only in the substantial minority of cases that the newly generated layer is destined to be a true copy, so the automatically generated layer name is very likely inappropriate. Better is to use a simpler, shorter name which applies in a greater fraction of the applications.
