AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Changing Lane Width Not Affecting Resulted Values Of Length And Run Off Length
May 11, 2013
With using superelevation wizard in Civil 3d 2012, changing the lane width is not affecting the resulted values of transion length and run-off length, Is that correct ? ( as civil is using standerd AASHTO tables which assume that lane width typically is 3.6m )
Also, There is only 2 tables for 2-lanes and 4-lanes roadway, Is it for total road width or for one directon only, and what about different no. of lanes ?

Is it possible to change the length of a line based on the length of an attribute?
I'd like to make the line a MINIMUM length of X" (I haven't decided how long yet--but know I'll need a minimum). But then after the user fills in the attribute, I'd like the length of the line to change to the length of the attribute plus a small amount (again, I haven't decided yet how much extra).

I was wondering if there is a way with DB's to have a line "follow" or "grow" with the content/value length of an attribute. Maybe some method of linking the attribute width to length of the line? Essentially, it would work just like turning on the underline setting when typing in mtext editor (or any program with an underline option for that matter), expect that the line could be placed anywhere, and would not have to reside directly below the text.

I am creating a block with attributes for a standard job. I have (4) total attributes in this block (for example: panel type, qty, length in imperial, length in mertic)
I would like my length in metric attribute to automatically populate based on the input from length in imperial.
Is this possible?

I am trying to draw 3D models for the first time, and something is confusing me. Sometimes when I draw a rectangle and it asks for a length width and height it seems the width means something else and the width means something else. I think the width means the distance from the z-axis on the XY plane, but then sometimes it is the distance from the Y-axis on teh XZ plane. I am just wondering if there is a good way to keep that a constant, or to remember which the length, width, and height is referring to at any given time.

I would like to determine the length, width, and height of a assembly.
Can i use the bounding box method to do this, or the range box?

I'm trying to change the size of a rectangle wall and I'm looking for "length" and "width" buttons in the properties manager box and can't figure it out. I thought I could just key in the new size after establishing an anchor point.
I've tried lengthen and extend. But the object is a closed polyline and what I'm doing is not working. Not having much luck with the key-grips either.
The wall is 47'2" and I want it to be 46' 8".

I found a lisp in the net to create a rectangle by marking objects in a draw.
But it would nice to get at the end of the lisp after creating the rectangle a output in the command line about the length and with of the created rectangle.
who can add the code for the length/width output?

I have an "ultimate" profile that has be set for a proposed roadway the first 1500' of the roadway will be constructed at this final profile while the last 900' will be constructed for an interim design not at the full depth pavement. So my typical for the final is 9.25 inch of pavement over 14" of stone and the interim is 4" over the same 14" of stone when we transition from the 4" to the 9.25" we are using a 20:1 taper the question is how to model this taper condition and have you had any success.

Several times, we generate a drawing, and the text widths in the columns vary greatly. Some have text that is ten characters long, and others have thirty-plus characters.
Is there a way to be able to select the table (or perform the command to all tables in the current layout) and have each of the columns expand to the appropriate width, that depends on the longest string of text in that column, for each column. The problem I see, is that some tables have two columns, some have six, and of course other with any number in between. The same is also true for the amount of rows.

I am trying to create a iLogic Rule that will measure the Length, Width and Thickness of a part and ut it into the custom fields we have. I am having a hard time remembering how to get it to do it from the assembly level. I want to run this on the assembly and have it populate all the parts inside of it. The code below will do it for a part but what is it I add to get it to drill down into the assembly?
iProperties.Value("Custom", "THICKNESS")=Measure.ExtentsHeight
iProperties.Value("Custom", "WIDTH")=Measure.ExtentsWidth
iProperties.Value("Custom", "LENGTH")=Measure.ExtentsLength
Then I want to add this formula to the Stock Number iProperty = <Length> X <Width> I can get it to add the values but I can not get it to add the formula to the stock number.

How to predict what Inventor will choose for the length and width on a sheet metal flat pattern? We have similar parts (produced from iPart factory). Some of them use the small dimension for the width and some use the longer dimension for the width. This behavior seems random.
As a temporary fix we have set width = <sheet metal length> and length = <sheet metal width> on some parts to force the numbers where they should be.
I tried to attach the iPart, but it's too big .
Side note:
We DO understand how to use conditional suppression in iParts. We chose to use thicken instead to produce or exclude our notch in this case for reasons I could explain if needed. I don't think this has anything to do with our length/width issue, but wanted to included that info in case I'm wrong.

I'm trying to create a dynamic block for a slotted hole, where I can specify and vary the width and length independatly.
To add complications, I also want the centrelines to stretch accordingly.
I've made some progress, it's 75% there, however certain combinations seem to 'break' the block.

In our “Parts list” (or BOM as we call it) on our .idw’s we have field for “LENGTH”. For example, we use round tubing. We would list the cut length of that piece of tube in the “LENGTH” column. As it stands now, we add “LENGTH” as a custom iproperty in the .ipt. Then in the drawing we add that property to the parts list to capture the length. This works fine, but I’m wondering if we can eliminate some steps by capturing the actual dimension from the sketch to automatically populate the “LENGTH” value. Needless to say, this would eliminate room for error (less typing) and will update the value automatically if length is changed or if the part is copied. I suppose the same would apply for “WIDTH” on sheet metal parts... How do I do this?

I want to have a Blank size custom iproperty using flat extents length and width this is what i did but gives error is there a way to get this to work the way I want it to? I dont want a Length and width to be seperated would like it all in one.
iProperties.Value("Custom", "BLANK SIZE")=Round(SheetMetal.FlatExtentsLength, 3)"X"=Round(SheetMetal.FlatExtentsWidth, 3)

I have an existing polyline of approximately 5'. When I choose PEDIT where do I go from there to make the plolyline exactly 12'8"? I'm in architectural mode. Ooops, I forgot to say this is in DraftSight, which should be similar to AutoCAD.

peace sign.cdr
Howdy gang, I am trying to create a peace sign in CDX6, but I cannot change the lengths of the two angled members, as they seem to be selected in some special mode. I am sure that this is a quick fix (and I have a CD Book coming today) and obvious.

A coworker brought this to my attention and I was also immediately able to reproduce this. We use content center C channels and other common beams a lot. After inserting one into an assembly if you right click and select change size and edit the length it typically doesn't update to the correct length.
Example:
Insert a 10" Ansi MC/C channel any size
right click and select change size
add +.0625 to the existing length and hit apply
measure it at 10.06252 in
repeat change size and type in 10.0625
measure it at 10.0625
repeat change size and type in 10 + .0625
and measure at 10.06252 in
It seems to mess up more when you do math but it also screws up entering a simple number
10.000325 usually ends up as 10.000315 in for me.
Editing the part directly from it's parameter dialog doesn't yield anything like this.

When labeling pipes, the lengths and stations do not always match. this appears to be related to a rounding issue. for example, the first pipe may start at 0+00 and have a length of 50.69167397’. The reported station in the structure label (using “normal rounding”) is naturally 0+50.69, as anticipated. The upstream pipe has a length of 43.36435901’, resulting in a total length from 0+00 of 94.05603298, resulting in a station of 0+94.06. However, the rounded values of the lengths (c’mon, nobody reports lengths to the 100-millionth) labeled on the pipes (50.69’ and 43.36’) total an expected station of 0+94.05.
I have tried all manners of “rounding” in the label styles, but it always falls down in one situation or another. I have also tried setting in the network and pipe “Feature Settings” for distance to a locked accuracy of 2 decimal places, but that does nto seem to do it either.
So, the question is, is there a way to resolve this issue without having to move one of the structures 0.001’ to resolve the mathematical parallax?

What length is shown in properties for a 3D polyline?
A 3D polyline having two nodes at 0,0,0 and 10,0,0 has length of 10.
If I move the second nodes to 10,0,1000 the length is still 10.
Is that the projection in xy-plan?

Just started a drawing in C3D 2013 using an existing template. If I draw an arc using the "Angle" rather than length or radius, entering the angle as 11.1601, then label the arc, the delta angle is converted to hms or 11.0936 . The template and labeling style are ones we've used for several releases. I've compared the feature settings, units and the curve labeling command and can not find where this is being changed.

I noticed when you put in vertical parabolic curves onto the profile tangents it will ask you if you want length or k.
however depend on which one you specify. it will hold on to that value when it comes to changing the tangent locations. for what i am doing now i want k by default. but accidentally i put in length because i just went through all the pi's quickly to put in the curves. but i see no control which allows you to control which type to hold. this is a property inside the vertical curve but it's not exposed to user. once you create by length that's it. until you delete the curve and re enter using k then it will hold k.

Wile using acad2011...
In model space I set the units form my dwg (cm), draw a line (100units). Next i go to paper space, create a viewport. When the viewport scale is set to 1:1 the ploted line is 100mm in length (not 100cm). Why is this so? How should I correct this? Changing of units in model space does not effect the length of the line in paper space.
