AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Updating A Template / Push Them From Current Drawing To Another On?
Jul 27, 2012
I know you can "pull" styles from a drawing (maybe the template) into your current drawing.
Is there a way to "push" them from the current drawing to another on?
Here is what I am picturing:
Right click on a style on the settings tab and choose "Send to Template"
"Template" would either be a predefined DWT file or it would open a standard file selection dialog to select one.....and this would copy the selected style into the template.

I seem to recall there is a method of substituting old drawing templates with the latest version on open drawings, but for the life of me can neither remember what the command is or enter anything into the ACAD Help search that results in anything remotely useful .

I am using Mech 2007. I have created a template to use with new drawings, and want to know if there is a way to update all the drawings at the same time when updating the template.

Is there a macro/script/deisel that will automatically print a pdf (cute pdf autocad lt 2007) to current plot settings in current drawing directory and give it the current drawing view name and number? Disk space not a problem these days and would save time to have a pdf copy of all drawing tabs readily stored in the directory ready for issue.

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.

I set my template dwg UCS to world. The viewcube will straighten up, i.e. North points up on the screen. I save the template, start a new drawing using the template and my viewcube rotates every time. I have to reset the UCS to world. What would cause this?

I have a 2011 template drawing that I've added all the information to that I know about how to survey in C3D. I've used it for a few years now and it works great for us. We now have to update it for used in 2014. IT has told me that I need to create a new 2014 drawing and bring the 2011 styles, groups, etc. into it that way. I used the management import tool to do this in 2014. Seems like all the styles, etc. came over just fine. Any way to test whether or not the template drawing has any garbage in it, such as purging and auditing, so all the bad stuff is gone? C3D - 2014

I created a drawing where I created a grading object (pad) under a site, a couple of alignements, etc.
After deleting everything to maintain layer states and settings, I saved the drawing as a starting template for day to day drawing (left it as a dwg, not dwt)
When I start a new drawing from a saveas of the template, it says that there is already a grading group named 'pad' but there isn't anything shown in the prospector. Purge hasn't worked. Any ghost entities left in a drawing.
I've also noticed that if you screw up a grading and try to delete the entire site and start over...you get weird results too. It's like it remembers old stuff you did (ghost entities) and won't let you start with a clean slate.?

How can I create a dwt file for the production of multiple section views sheets in A3 format and 1/200 ?
Civil 3D Section .dwt (Template/plan production) has only layouts for A0 and A1 plan and scales 1/500 - 1/1000 and 1/5000. I tried to change the format to A3 and scale to 1/200 of one of those layouts in the set up manager but didn't get a good result while producing section sheets.

The only stipulation is my company uses AutoCAD 2012 LT. I am not familiar with Lisp/VBA programming codes but I have done an "appload" before, but that does not work with LT versions.
Question:
How do I update multiple template blocks based off of the first template? Currently we have been using one primary drawing sheet and are now going to be implementing a detail sheet.

im using 3dsmax 2012 & mudbox 2012, & the problem is when after im texturing the scene (mudbox) i want to updating textures in current scene features to 3dsmax, the problem is my mesh always repositiong or scaled down etc. everytime i had to always realign (affect object only) the pivot to correct positions or rescale back.i tried to matched the units setup on max & still the problem occur. fyi im only do texturing part by part because i cant texturing the whole model on mudbox at once because of its to heavy for my pc.
UPDATE 1ok i found the main culprit is - the pivot. the stubborn pivot keeps retain its old position which is not center with the objects when im updating..Now struggling to find solutions for this stubborn pivot
UPDATE 2Ok i found the solution.make sure reset your pivot back to its original positions.(aka Reset Pivot)but the ugly thing is the original usually not centered, but its ok for me since i just want to do just the texture job.after texturing we can set the pivot center to object back again.

I've recently made a new drawing template with ilogic prompts for entering data for all fields within the template. It also sets view sizes etc. I have lots of master drawings, which are reused when sizes etc change for a contract, which i would like to transfer to this new template. Drawing Resource Transfer Wizard does not offer this function.
I could get all drawings in a folder copied to specific sheet size on the master template.As the template will probably be developed further in the future I'm very loathed to do this take manually.

I am trying to write a quick macro to open the current drawing in the block editor. I can easily do the steps from the dialog box to open the current drawing, but the command line version give me an error.
Command: -bedit
Enter block name or [?]: <current drawing>
(A message box pops up saying, "The name cannot be longer than 255 characters."
If I click ok on the message box, AutoCAD returns to model space. The file name is 30 +/- characters, and the path is maybe another 50 to 100 characters. Can I bedit the current drawing using the command line, or must I use the dialog box?

I have a drawing of a part that I want to change the dimensions many times.
When I edit the length and width in the part, the drawing updates automatically.
But is it possible to update the pdf file (of drawing) automatically after editing the dimensions in part?
Or do I have to update (save as to pdf) everytime I create a new dimensions?
