AutoCAD Civil 3D :: PDF Memory Path

Jan 31, 2013

When you plot to pdf in Civil 3D, my problem is that I need to go through all the different folders to the folder that I wish the PDF to be saved, and when I PDF the next drawing, I need to go through all the folders again to find the same location folder in which to save the PDF. 

There is surely a memory path that saves to last saved location, rather than having to go through the different folders and sub-folders each and every time.

Before my upgrade to 2013 from 2012, it would save in the last saved location, now it defaults back 'my documents' on my C' drive.

When creating the short cut folder you have the option of using a project template.  Instead of browsing for it all the time , can a permanent path on a network be set to look for the project template everytime?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Path Array For Slope Labels?

Apr 4, 2012

I have a polyline defining a proposd wind farm access track and I have offset it 10m each side. I have then dreated a slope label between the southernmost end points which gives the existing ground slope at right angles to the centreline. I created the Array (as shown in arrayed.jpg) and it looked good but after hitting enter there were only three labels (after enter.jpg)

I did a rectangular array of slope labels with no problem at all so what's wrong with the way I'm doing the path??

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Find Path Of Determined Slope Along A Surface?

Oct 25, 2013

I am trying to draw an alignment for a road.  I want the alignment to represent the outside of the curve as the road climbs up and around a mound. Is there not way to do this in Civil 3D?

[URL]

and now I am thinking I will have to do this manually, extract contours, and trim/extend my way to victory...I really would like to have this in a dynamic situation so I can make adjustments.  Also, it would be adventageous to have the line actually follow the grade so I dont have to add curves in etc later...

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2012 XREF Via Relative Path Failure

Jul 27, 2012

Periodically, when I try to create an XREF using the Relative Path option, C3D will tell me that it can't use the relative path.  But if I then close the drawing and reopen it, the command works just fine. why C3D sometimes fails to do this, or why closing and reopening the drawing fixes the problem.

Never saw this problem before C3D 2012.

In Civil 3D 2012, if you enable the option of "Display full path in title" under the Options -->  Open and Save --> File Open area, the active drawing name and path displayed in the Tittlebar is not correct?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Database And Data Shortcut Path

Feb 15, 2013

How do you move a survey database and data shortcuts?  Without going into details, sometimes it is necessary to copy portion of projects as new projects.  The survey database along with the drawings our surface, points, linework, etc. need to reference the new directory.  I can set the survey database folder location to the new path but am not certain the information in the dwg is point to the correct location.

The same essentially applies to the data shortcuts.  I'm having trouble getting this to work.  With LD we were able to copy the project and resuscitate the drawing(s).  I tried to use Data Shortcut Editor with the Saveas.  I then attempted to rename the dwg's and path the new location and name but receive an error of Invalid source file. Correct the path or press Esc..

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Data Reference Path In Current Drawing

Jul 12, 2012

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.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Macro File Not Found At Original Path Specified In Subassembly

May 4, 2008

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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Create Path (from Sktech3D) As In Input To Add Using Path

Feb 9, 2012

Actually, I have more than 6 years experience on Catia V5 customization and vb and vb.net catia API's. What I am trying to do know is converting some applications or programs running on catia to the inventor.

The first program deal with the inventor API relating to the SweepFeatures class. So my first problem is about to find the right way to use the sketch3D for the creation of  the path which is the input of the sweep method.

(oInvPartFeats.SweepFeatures.AddUsingPath(oInvProfile, oInvProfPath3D, kNewBodyOperation).

I know That is possible to create a path by using the CreatePath method when the input is SketchLines or any guide curve in the 2D Plan. Also, I tried to generate path by using the ProfilePath3D method of the sketch3D class but No way, the AddUsingPath  method of the SweepFeatures Class  doesn't accept it as path Input.

So I cannot imagine that is limitation of inventor because it was possible to do it by using the seep function of the model tab in the ipart document. How to create the path object as an input of the AddUsingPath  method of the SweepFeatures class.

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Fetch XREF Found At Path When Using No Path While Attaching

Mar 1, 2013

I am attaching a File as a xRef. At the time of Attachment, I select attach as attachment, and No Path in Path.

Now if I try to fetch detail of this file using MdiActiveDocument.Database and BlockTableRecord, I gets only file name not the path. However, In AutoCAD we can see the file path under "Found At". Can we read / fetch this using C#.

In case of Full Path or relative Path, I gets full path in btr.PathName

Here is my code  and  I am using AutoCAD 2013

Database db = acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Database;
using (Transaction Trans = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) {
BlockTable BlkTbl = (BlockTable)Trans.GetObject(db.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead,false,true);
db.ResolveXrefs(false, false);

Illustrator :: Create Single Path To Type On Not Compound Path From Many Paths?

May 11, 2012

I have some negative space I created(black area, see first image) that I want to fill with type, not just a simple fill.
 
Basically I want to create the negative space from a bunch of small minus signs(-) that need to line up as they go across. If I type on each path one at a time as the text doesn't line up that way. This needs to be one continuous path. (see second image)
 
Unfortunately if I add them together, it creates a compound path, which you cannot type on, unless I am mistaken? So I need them to be a path, not a compound object.

3ds Max :: How To Re-path Material Library With Bitmap/ Photometric Path Editor

Jan 25, 2012

I have a bunch of material libraries that need to be re-pathed as I have moved my textures, the Bitmap/Photometric paths editor has a tickbox that says "include material library" which leads me to believe that it will list, for re-pathing, all materials in my library.

However, it doesn't seem to do anything for me even though the library i need to re-path is loaded into my Material/map browser.

Illustrator :: Convert Text Path Back Into Line Path In CS 5?

I've tried every permutation of copy and paste; I renamed the path to path. It looks like a path when I add stroke, but it does not behave like one.  I can't cut it or join it to any other path. It remembers it's text path status. I'm running OS X 10.7.5.
