AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Text Doesn't Show Up In Paperspace

Feb 12, 2010

I am having trouble with getting certain pieces of text to show up in my viewport in paperspace. There is text and linework on the same layer. However, only the linework shows up in paperspace, not the text. I have seen this before and don't remember how to fix it. It is a setting somewhere but I don't remember where.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Paperspace Text Over Viewport Disappears?

Dec 5, 2012

why the text and leaders placed over viewports (in paperspace) keeps disappearing? The text is still there...just not visible. i can select the text with no problem. and if i move it off of the viewport then i can see it just fine. this is happening with all the viewports in my drawings... on all tabs.  If i close the drawing and reopen then all the text appears again.....but when i switch tabs then come back...the text vanishes again.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Background Mask Doesn't Show / Print

Jun 17, 2012

I'm on Civil3d 2010.  I have a drawing where i have background masks on most of my text - everything works great.  Then I did a "Save As" to give the drawing a new name.  After working in it for a day or so, I noticed that all of the text masks don't show.  When I hover over mtext (or blocks with mtext), a border shows around the text (only when hovering).  But bottom line is the background mask doesn't show at all or print. The original drawing is still fine.

I've checked and this has nothing to do with line merge in the pc3 file etc.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Gravity Pipe Crossing Doesn't Show Up In Profile

Dec 6, 2013

I have a typical storm sewer pipe network in a drawing by itself with an alignment.  I data referenced both of these into another drawing.  I draw the pipe network in the profile view I created and the pipes that run with the road show up fine.  Every once in awhile there is a lateral storm sewer pipe that runs across the road.  When I draw these in the profile view they show up, but, only the pipes that are skewed to the alignment show up.  If the pipe is perfectly perpendicular to the alignment it does not show up.  I have two styles setup.  One main one that shows the inner and outer pipe walls and another one for overrides for the crossing pipes and that stlye has crossing pipe walls turned on.

Why is it though only the skewed pipes show up as ellipses in my profile view but the perpendicular pipes do not?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Daylight Slope Doesn't Show Up In Cross Sections

Nov 29, 2012

I have a fairly simple corridor, however, I had to modify the alignment, rebuild the corridor and resample cross-sections.  Now my right daylight slope won't show up.  It shows up in the section viewer, but not the cross-section.  I had this problem once before and fixed it, but now I can't remember how I did...I have all targets, sections sampled match corridor sampling etc.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Dynamic Block With Text Inserted Into Drawing Show Text Orientation Matched To Layout

Apr 17, 2013

Is it possible to have a dynamic block with text which, when inserted into a drawing, will show the text orientation matched to the layout? I have a non-dynamic block which is simply a donut and a piece of text. When I insert it into a drawing, the text orientation will change to suit the orientation of the layout. I created another block with the same entities but I also added a couple of lines extending out from the center of the donut. I added stretch and rotation actions in order to rotate and stretch the lines. I also gave the block visibility states so that either one or two lines would appear (the block is a utility pole,by the way, with the lines representing guy wires). When I insert the dynamic block into a drawing, I cannot get the text to match the orientation of the viewport. I've tried changing different combinations of settings but the text won't appear horizontal.

The two blocks I mentioned above are inserted into one file with a number of other blocks. When I check the properties of the non-dynamic block, the "match orientation" is set to YES. I cannot, however, change the "match to orientation" setting to YES on the dynamic block. Is this simply because it is a dynamic block or am I missing something? I don't create a lot of dynamic blocks and therefore I am not a wizard at it so I am assuming I am doing something wrong.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Hide A Layer In Model Space But Show It On Paperspace Tab

Mar 15, 2012

I'm looking for a way to hide a layer in model space, but show it on ONLY my paperspace tab.  Problem is, most of my work is in model space (different aspect of this drawing), and although I could pull the objects through to the paperspace tab, it just wouldn't be the way I feel it should be (3d objects should stay in model space imo).  However, for the most part I don't need to see it in model space (except for checking 3d elevations of line segments), the finish product is a printed 2d top view.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Double Click To Edit Text Doesn't Work

Every time I double click on single line text it brings up the properties. I have searched online and made the changes to certain toggle settings and still nothing. I'm not doing something right I just can't figure it out. I know "DDEDIT" can do the trick. But, I know double clicking has worked on previous version and I want it to work on my 2013 version.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Gone In Paperspace

Feb 27, 2012

A file created over a year ago (I believe with AutoCAD 2010) is needing to be updated.  I have AutoCAD 2012 and when I open it there is no text in my Paper Space.  However, if my manager is to open the same exact file with his AutoCAD 2012 he can clearly see all of the text is still in place.  Is there a setting somewhere that I have missed that may be making the text not show up?  All layers are on and visible.

AutoCad :: How To Scale Text Size In Paperspace

Dec 1, 2006

I am using CAD LT 2005 but also have access to AutoCAD 2005.

I am unsure about the best way of dealing with text in drawings. Originally I used to put my text in model space - which was fine until I started using multiple layouts in paperspace at different scales. The text would come out either to big or too small.

Others in my office say they put the text in paperspace ONLY at the right scale for that layout. This is fine until you realize that if you have to put text in 4 different layouts at 4 different scales 4 different times it takes forever.

So - I looked up about a command called SPACETRANS which seems to offer a way of working out the right scale for the text in paperspace. EG. Working in mm in model space a good text height for me was 1000. By using the spacetrans command in paperspace I worked out that the text height to be used here was 9.2. This basically gave me my text in paperspace at the relatively same height as it looked in model space.

I now realize that although I can scale my text happily to the right size in all my layouts it hasn't negated the need for me to type it all in many times over. Basically, I still have to type the text into paperspace at the right scale - in this example at 9.2.

How you can type your text in once anywhere (probably model space) and then scale it in all the different viewports without having to retype it all in?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Bold Text Inside Viewport And Slim Text Inside Paperspace?

Feb 8, 2013

I have this strange situation.. i use the Arial font inside my cad drawings and when i print my paperspace layout, the text inside the viewport is a little bit more "bold" then the text i put directly on paper space.

Maybe it's a trick to know what text is placed where, but i want all this to be uniform, same thickness. Is there a system variable to correct that issue?

See the image below: It's a 400 DPI scan from an impression i did.

Up to COUPE C1 is the text inside the viewport, under COUPE C1is the paperspace text. Both are the same height... but difference tickness.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points Rotated In Paperspace

Oct 1, 2012

I have a dwg that looks great in model space, however I created a couple paperspace layouts and then used Align Space to rotate to those views. The problem is that my point label style rotates the point labels based on the align space rotation.

I looked into the point label settings and changed the orientation reference to the World Coord. Sys., but it does not make the points rotate correctly. (world reference is the goal).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Ghosting When Panning / Zooming In Paperspace?

Since installing SP1, I have noticed "ghosting" when panning/zooming in paperspace i.e. the original image is still visible. The only solution I have found is to turn off Hardware Acceleration and then turn it back on.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Specific Paperspace Layout In Windows Shortcut

Nov 27, 2013

A way to create a windows shortcut to a drawing that opens a specific Paperspace Layout?

For example, I have a drawing located in a Windows folder called 'Appraisal Maps', the drawing contains 2 paperspace layouts, one of which is named Show Me Stakes. I would like to have a Windows shortcut of the drawing inside of a Windows folder called 'Staking-Show Me', so that when I double click the drawing it will open up and automatically switch to the proper paperspace layout.

I am wanting this for two reason, 1) so that we do not create multiple drawings and actually use the power of autocad layout tabs and layer management. 2) so that when management opens up the drawing it goes directly to the proper layout minimizing their head scratching as to what is going on.
