why the frame of my text masks are off centered...half off the text. i have to adjust it every time using the wipeout command>frame>on to adjust the frame....then turn the frame off again.
View 6 RepliesI am having trouble trying to add text to a dynamic block that will stay locked and centered when I stretch it left/right and up/down. The default text I am looking to have should be 36x24 (36 is the lenght of the unit, 24 is the depth). I can also upload my block.

I don’t know is this a problem with a lispmy company has set up or whether it is an autoCAD error. When I go to create a leader I type LE withis short on my system for QLEADER. You can then draw your leader or entersettings One I have drawn the leader I go to placethe text the problem I then have is that sometime my text appears below theline (pic 1) and sometime appears next to the line (pic 2)

I am working in Civil 3d 2012 and creating multiple view cross sections. I have my sheet template created and when I create the cross sections, it pulls them to the top corner of the sheet, off the grid. I can not figure out where the setting is to adjust the offset on the sheet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm recording an action and want the text to be centred horizontally. It just won't do it. Pressing the paragraph buttons shjoot the text off the side and seems to be based on where you intially type the text in the first place. This must be the simplest thing on PS why won't the text just jump to the middle of the photo?
Secondly I'm drawing a selection around the text (then filling with black). There seems to be no way to centralise a selection box either. As when I run the action on different sized photos the box and text end up in completely different places, separately. Why is this and how can I centralise a selection too?
Since we updated to C3D 2012, our background masks are not plotting.They show up and seem to work properly in both Model and Paper spaces as well as print preview.
They do not plot whether it is selected through the MText dialog or in an Object Label dialog box.
I have made sure the draw order was correct and made sure that the "Lines Overwrite" option is selected.
This is happening on all three of our workstations which are a mix of XP and Win 7. We are printing to a KIP 3000 and I have made sure the drivers are up-to-date.
I'm modeling a couple different alternatives, and I want to make an inside mask on EG where my FG surface will be.
Is my workflow the problem, or are surface masks just buggy?
I've created three EG surfaces, EG-1, EG-2, and EG-3. I pasted the dref'd EG into each one, so now I have three copies of EG, one for each design option. Each surface is on its own layer.
I have three FG surfaces, one for each design, FG-1, FG-2, FG-3. I want to use the outer border of each FG in turn to make an inside mask for its respective EG surface. I can make one, masking FG-1 out of EG-1. When I move on and try to make the mask for FG-2 to mask EG-2, no mask is created. Is it not working because I pasted the same original EG into each of the three EG option surfaces? Do I need to promote the original dref'd EG and copy it two more times, so each mask is applied to a completely unique surface?

I'm now using a different computer. I have a drawing with an existing surface and contours. I have two buildings on site that I'd like to mask the contours that run through them. I used the mask feature for one of them, but that is the limit. How can I mask the contours so they aren't running through the other building.

When I make a plot, the mask plots a dark rectangle.
How can I make the masks visible so that they can be erased? Is there a variable for that? What type of entity (name?)are they?
When I make "wipeouts" visible, you still can not see the masks.

I am having trouble with using my layer masks. I can use the masks that are hidden (shown with black screen) and apply them with the white brush, but I cant get white or shown masks to be taken off with the black brush. Sometimes, not always I have trouble adjusting the opacity of white masks. I was playing around with actions I downloaded and after applying three actions to a photo, elements froze on me. I read about trashing preferences, I dont know what that does or means but I tried to hit cntrol alt shift when photoshop was opening and nothing happened. When it first opens it shows I can install the new inspiration browser ( i dont know what that is either) thinking it was a required update I tried to update and it gave me an error message, something about the installer has been mis-configured.

I want to create 15 instead of 17 viewframes for a portion of the alignment. i played with the dwt file's plan viewport. doesn't matter how big i make the viewport it always create 17 pages. the bigger i make it the more overlap it has.

I have a coworker who is converting a Civil 3D drawing down to "plain" AutoCAD.
In the orignal drawing, there are wipeout frames that are turned off, but when you open the converted drawing, they are turned ON.
Is there anyway to ensure the frames will be turned off in the converted drawing without having to open the drawing? I have a theory that the AECTOACAD command must use a particular template file when converting the drawing down, and that it would be a simple matter of making sure the frames are OFF.
I am using AutoCAD Civil 3d 2012. I have succesfully created a View Frame Group (VFG) from an alignment and then created Plan Profile sheets from that View Frame group. I did create the sheets in a separate file from the View Frame group (that is an option when you create the sheets). It appears that if I change a View Frame using the grips, the corresponding sheet viewport doesn't change based on the edits to the view frame. I must manually update the sheet plan viewport to align with the edited location of the view frame. Is there a way AutoCAD will do this automatically or does it just not do that? Do I have to create the whole sheet set again or can I just recreate that one sheet? I don't want to do that since create the sheet will create a new profile view.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a water line replacement job in a residential neighborhood. Some of the streets are getting the water line replaced and some are not. I have created an alignment for the water line on the streets that are being replaced.
When I create my view frame group along each alignment, there are some overlapping view frames from different alignments. I need to create a matchline for these instances. How to create matchlines for view frames on different alignments? Or create one view frame group from different alignments?
is possible to create view frames with an alignment? my drawing is not linear, in fact, its a survey of large lake with bathy survey data, and topo data along the shoreline. is there a function to tell c3d to divide my model into as many sheets required to cover the surface based on the template/layout properties?

View 19 Replies View RelatedI am new to Illustrator and am currently attempting to learn it. I am creating a logo that has text and has a shape that goes through the text to make the text appear as if it has claw marks in it.
I have two layers. The layer with the shape "claw" marks, and a layer with the text. The shape layer is currently above and the text layer is currently below. If I select both layers and click on Make Clipping Mask it has the text displayed within the little claw marks, how do I reverse that? Because when I try to change the order of the layers it doesn't clip anything?
I would like to find out if it is possible to produce a drawing with more than one view frame plotted on a single sheet/layout. I was thinking of minimizing on the number of sheets used for Linear features.

I have a road design with a corridor. I want to plot the plan and profile but not show the sub-assembly section that are every 25 feet. I can't freeze the layer because then I only see my baseline for the alignment. I want to see the offsets of the road. I have tried creating an offset of my alignment but it will not create the offsets for some reason.
I want my final output to show the entire road over my OG topo survey but do not want to see section lines every 25ft
two questions photoshop.
1)
How do I make a border with a transparent middle section. So I can use that border for a flash project (picture album etc). I know how to make a border over a picture, I just need to know how to make a border that I can use over any image of my choosing.
2)
How do I make a text only image that is transparent. Lets say I make the word "Home" with a Bevel, how do I keep the word only without the white background? I keep getting the full canvas size (e.g 100X100) with the word Home in the middle (including all the effects I add to the word) on a white background, even when I have set my options to transparent background.
The creation of viewframes with automatic station range at scale 1/2000 produces viewframes and sheets with ranges 0+000 - 0+738 then 0+738 - 1+456 and so on.
It is possible to creat onyl 1 viewframe with user specified station range i;e; 0+000 - 0+700. For a long alignment it involves to repeat the operation all along the alignment by ranges of 700 m. Or use the automatic range option and then make boring adjustments on viewframes and long profiles of the sheets to fit to the 700 m successive ranges we would like to draw.
Is there a possibility to produce directly multiple viewframes with a user specified station range of, say, 700 m on the entire alignment. If this is possible it would be great.
More great: would it be possible to set an overlap of 50 m for example between successive viewframes (sheets)ranges so that we have ranges 0+000 - 0+700 then 0+650 - 1+350 then 1+300 -2+000 and so forth.
Is there a way to put a text automatically on "X" frames? I mean, it's so hard to copy the layer and merge it on aaaaaall frames if a gif has 100, for example.
