Messing with creating a Partial CUIX ribbon, new to this with using macros, I have a general understanding. Created a pulldown for creating existing electric polylines, I have macro setting both to the same layer, but not sure how to get so linetypes are different for both. One would be underground and the other would be overhead.
how can save my custom menu to cuix file after creating it by vba using ThisDrawing.Application.MenuGroups.Item(0) and if i can create new cuix file "AMRCuix" and every time i will load it.
I got this problem during creation of corridor surface boundaries. I would like to create a corridor datum surface using the daylight feature lines, automatically from the corridor surfaces-boundaries dialog box, but the daylight does not appear in the list.
2013 version. Long story short, I am having problems with pressure networks in my drawing so to simplify things I want to just show the top of the current watermain in my profiles because we are not doing anything with the water main, though it needs to be shown in the profile. To do this I created some points where the watermain is and made their elevation 1.8m lover than the existing surface at those points (due to the 1.8m of cover the watermain has).
I then created a surface using those points and an outer boundary surrounding the points. For some reason the surface stops at one point and doesn't continue to the rest (about 5 more points). So when I create my profile the surface stops short. The points are included in the point group the surface uses, and the outer boundary doesn't cut them out either. Not sure why the surface isn't referencing those points.
I just started work in Civil 3D 2014 and was going about creating different point groups for some volume calculations so I could create different surfaces. I noticed after creating my first point group that the NO DISPLAY group could not been seen in the Prospector under Point Group. Now in previous editions there has always been a NO Display Group so you can easily view your different groups. Is this something they changed in Civil 3D 2014 or was the installations faulty?
I'm preparing for our office wide install of Infrastructure Design Suite 2014 so we can begin training/using Civil 3D 2014.
I’m reading through readme file for the Architecture-MEP 2014 Object Enabler & noticed that it’s installed as part of the normal installation of all AutoCAD 2014 based products, including Civil 3D…woohoo! Unfortunately, the Structural & Plant OE’s don’t appear to have a readme file. Are these also installed as part of the normal installation of C3D 2014? Or will they need to be installed separately?
I am curious how the default workspace “3D Modeling” is able to combine ribbon panels from both the acad.cuix file and the modeldoc.cuix file in one tab. See attached screen shot to see where I highlighted the differences between the tab in the workspace and the tab in the acad.cuix file. I am trying to recreate this in my workspace without having two separate layout tabs.
If I open a drawing created in 2009 and try to publish it in 2010, DSD file message pops saying about unsaved changes (see attached). Since I don't use sheet sets, I do not have any use for DSD file. Is there a way to disable it?
In 2009 it was simple not to include model tab while publishing. Where is this option in 2010? I don't want to remove model tab from the list every time I publish drawings.
Is there a way, in finder, to enumerate the catalogs an image file is included in?
I've run into some finder organization trouble when an external drive died. I want to be able to select an image and find out which catalogs it is included in and/or if it is even in a catalog.
I'm need to make a Map Check report on C3D2011, but I don't know how to do it. Since C3D everything have to be setup before it can be use, so my questions are: How do I setup map check? Or What do I need to do get map check report?
I have a lack of expierence in using visibility checks. I created road profile , now i would like to check the visibility of it. Cuz my profile have hills , and the car driver must see other objects in the road . His sight in front should be 400 meters , eyes height 1 meter and the target in 400 distance should be seen by 1 meter tall.
I need to export data to an excel file but I need to check if the file is already open.
Searching the internet I found this but I don't know what "imports" to use to use to enable it.
Public Function FileInUse(ByVal sFile As String) As Boolean If System.IO.File.Exists(sFile) Then Try Dim F As Short = FreeFile() FileOpen(F, sFile, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.ReadWrite, OpenShare.LockReadWrite) FileClose(F) Catch Return True End Try End If End Function
I'm looking for a way to programmatically check if a dll file is a AutoCAD plug-in, preferably getting the version too.The only thing I can think of is using
System.Reflection.Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoad()
to load the dll, search thru its references looking for Acad-specific (acdbmgd etc.) get the reference version, compare it to a list....
How to customize the reports that Civil 3d can generate to my firms needs. I have figured out how to change the appearance and precisions to the most of the numbers, but i still can not figure out a lot. Currently i am working on the output of the Parcel Map Check Report. If you look at the attachment i have an Image of what i have been asked to generate and an excel file of what i have been able to generate. I need to figure out how to remove the "," from the coordinates and how to rearrange/ change font of the way some things come out.
i am trying to do a print out of our lots within our proposed plat & need to do indivial closure reports for each lot. when i try an run a report i get Error - Invalid execute file.ive added new .dll files that I got off the net but they do not work either. which are located at C3D 2011/enu/Data/Reports/Net.
I have recently started working with civil3d 2012 & 2013 so go easy one me...
How can i check the elevations of 2 alignments that cross (junction)?
The localization team in Israel has added a utility that marks the junction on the profile view with a red flag and 2 marker lines, one for the existing ground and one for the elevation of the crossing alignments. The flag is not a civil3d entity, it's not dynamic and needs to be reset after each change.
Any better way of checking the elevations? (including adding a block or anything to the profile to show the other alignment name and elevation).
I am wondering if there is a way to modify the Map Check Report to include Acreage Calculations like it used to. I am only given the square feet and need both. I know I can calculate it easily, but it would be nice if it were there by default.
I am creating exhibit drawings and legal descriptions for right-of-way and easement acquisitions. I'm using parcels to create the various objects for the exhibit drawings: parcels allow me to label the acquisition, area, and lines and curves. The parcel property gives me a 'mapcheck' description that I use to generate my legal description. All good.
How are people generating this sort of information for polylines? I will have polylines from my POB to my TPOB that I need to describe. I have artificially closed these polylines to create parcels from them so I can glean the information that I need, but that feels like a work-around.
When I run the Map Check report in C3D 2010, the Delta angle on curves displays to a tenth of a second, no matter what I do with settings. It should display to the whole second.
I was wondering is there is a way to select an Inventor part file and see which assembly file or files that is is currently used in ? It would be extremely useful to be able to see a list of all the assembly files which are using one particular part so when modifying the part you would know which assemblies would change.

I have a "steelplt.png" file that Inventor tells me is not in the correct library path. The problem is that it is in the correct path as defined by the project file. I cannot check in dwg because the "steelplt.png is not in the correct library path".

Attached is a zip file with the source code I used to modify the Parcel Map Check Report, as discussed HERE. It is essentially the code as provided with C3D2009, modified to reduce the amount of paper required to print them out. There are some other optimizations (allow sorting by columns is one), but this was mostly done a few years ago and I do not recall everything I may have done. Projects included for C3D versions 2010-2012.
