AutoCAD Inventor :: Auto Run Macro On Pressing SAVE Or NEW

Jul 16, 2013

I have created an "addin" to monitor the "SAVE" & "NEW" button press on Inventor.What is the possibility of AutoDesk including this feature to the next release, or better still, creating a "patch" so that inventor can be upgraded to do it automatically, without the need to write an "addin"?

For Example,

If the user presses the "SAVE" button, AutoDesk Inventor would automatically look to see if a macro called "OnSave" exists. If it does, it "runs" the macro, if it does not exist, it works exactly as Inventor does now. This also would work in a similar way when pressing the "NEW" button.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Edit Registry To Set Save Location Automatically

Nov 20, 2012

In my quest to remove any unnecessary clicks I want to be able to set the default location when you press Save, Save As, Demote or 'Save and replace component'.

Default it will show up a file save as dialogue starting from my workspace. Or my last saved location. I believe this is stored in the registry and hope to Intelligent adjust these registry value's using VBA.

When diving into the registry I believe I found the right keys here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion17.0SystemPreferencesFileDialog

Problem 1:

- if i change them manually I don't find a difference in Inventor (If I change other things in the registry, this has an effect)

Problem 2:

how do I set them automatic using VBA? I've got the strings sFileLocation & sFileName true the rest of my code. So I would need to do something like:

 
Dim oRegFileSave as Regisry entryset oRegFileSave as

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion17.0SystemPreferencesFileDialogLastFileSaveDialogoRegFileSave = sFileLocation & "/" & sFileName

 For your information, these are the registry entry's I believe I need to adjust:

I also need it to have center marks for all the holes and I need to add certain dimensions.

AutoCad :: PDF To Automatically Open When Auto Publish Command Is Complete

May 16, 2013

We have our options set to Auto Publish on Save (Autocad 2011). On some of our stations, the PDF will pop up automatically. This is what we WANT to happen. On other stations, the pdf has to be found and then opened to make sure it is correct. (this step, which is apparently way to difficult for some people, is not being performed, leading to extra work/time later to complete the project) I had everyone ensure their DWGtoPDF.pc3 custom properties was set to "open in PDF viewer when done" (and when they do a straight plot, it does come right up) It just wont do it when its thru Auto Publish. Mine is one of them that comes up just fine....I have looked at every setting I have and tried to compare with theirs, but it all looks the same.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Adding Save Run Macro To Automatically Run Macro

I have been using the addin "Save Run Macro" to automatically run a macro every time the "Save" button is pressed.

Any of the following questions about "Save Run Macro"?

1] When I protect the macro from viewing (so I can protect my code) "Save Run Macro" does not see the macro.

2] When I save the part for the first time (ipt, iam or idw/dwg) the macro does not run. I always need to run the macro again.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Why Does Have Auto Save If Is Not Going To Save

Jul 27, 2012

Why does AutoCAD still have automatic save if it is not going to automatically save your files? I have used AutoCAD for over 20 years and when the introduced automatic saves, I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread. But apparently some time between release 2010 and 2012 it was redone or it just don't work. I can recall closing a drawing w/o saving by mistake after having worked on it for 2-3 hours and only loosing at the most 10 minutes of my time. I just did the same thing and lost about 2 hours worth of time and my automatic save was set to every 10 minutes as I have set it since automatic save was introduced.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Save Copy As DXF Create File That Is Almost 50x Larger Than IDW

Apr 5, 2013

I have re-installed APDS Ultimate 2013 onto a new computer and am having some issues setting up my styles and etc...for the most part I have been working on it as I go with no issues...but I can't remember how I set up my export to dxf settings before. I think I just used the default settings, I exported to dxf from the idw environment by saving copy as and selecting dxf from drop down menu and selecting something like AutoCAD 2004. This has worked before and still does now, but the problem is the dxf's that are exported are huge. The drawing is of a single tiny part with basic geometry. The picture below shows the size difference between the files.

how I can make it a normal size, I don't really care about the size of the dxf except for the fact that I can't email it because we have a limit of 10MB.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Automatically Blocks?

Dec 11, 2013

I've been working a while with AutoCad now but this week I received a task which I am not sure is not even possible to do.

I've been exporting drawnings from an other program into AutoCad2013 and all the objects in my drawning appear as loose objects in AutoCad.  Can AutoCad create automatically blocks from these loose objects ?

Example : I added a picture of a transformer in this message.  This object (2 circles, triangle and star) becomes all loose objects and is NOT one symbol anymore.  My question is, if it it is possible that Autocad can recognize these loose objects and create automatically blocks from them.  There are a lot of transformers in my drawnings and If I have to do it myself it will be loads of work.

Another thing they asked to do is working with correct European Symbols.  I should therefore change blocks in my drawnings into correct one's.  I believe when the wrong symbol is already a block it's more easy to change them.  I think I should just select all wrong blocks, edit them and then update them.  But before this, I have to get blocks in my drawning ofcourse.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Key Notes Automatically In R2013?

Jun 26, 2013

Is there a way to create key notes automatically in R2013?  Similar to automatic numbering in mtext, but with a hexagon or circle around each number at the beginning of each line.  Right now I just type my paragraph then manually insert a key note with attributes at the appropriate location.  Problem is when I add or delete text from the paragraph, the line spacing may change, then I have to manually re-align all the key note blocks.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create Block - Add Attributes Automatically

Nov 3, 2013

How I can modify this code to create a block, ask for a new name for the block, then add the attributes listed inside the code below to the new created block. The lisp does a wonderful job - however, it only works if you already have a block created. We are in the process of drawing components and making blocks one by one, so it makes sense to add the attributes automatically when the block is created. We currently have over 500 components to create as a block and set the attributes to each one by one. 

Also I would like to know, If Fields can be used inside the lisp routine. That way we can always have access to the attributes from outside the block and change values for all the blocks at once.

(defun c:addattribs ( / blk def ) (while (not (or (= "" (setq blk (getstring t "
Name of block to update: "))) (tblsearch "BLOCK" blk) ) ) (princ (strcat "
Block "" blk "" not found.")) ) (if (/= "" blk) (progn (setq def (vla-item (vla-get-blocks (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))) blk)) (vla-addattribute def (getvar 'textsize) acattributemodelockposition "New Attribute 1" (vlax-3D-point 0 0) "NEW_TAG1" "New Value 1" ) (vla-addattribute def (getvar 'textsize) acattributemodelockposition "New Attribute 2" (vlax-3D-point 0 (- (* 1.5 (getvar 'textsize)))) "NEW_TAG2" "New Value 2" ) (command "_.attsync" "_N" blk) ) ) (princ))(vl-load-com) (princ)
