AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert Splines

Dec 26, 2012

I have a drawing of a map full of polylines and some splines. I want to somehow select or show only the splines for then to convert them into polylines to make them ready for laser printing.

The drawing has thousands of lines so selecting one by one to see if its a spline will take forever.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Convert Plines To Splines?

Mar 15, 2012

I searched and saw lots of posts on converting a spline object into a pline, but not the other way around. I like the way that splines can use control vertices or fit points. 

I know that you can apply a spline smoothing to a pline, but what I'd like to do is to convert a pline object into a spline object and splining a pline does not do that.

Any fairly easy way to do this? Are there LISP routines that do this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: DWG Or DXF If Creates Splines In 2d Drawing

Jul 12, 2011

I need to export faces on a part. When i do this in either DWG or DXF if creates splines in the 2d drawing. Then i have to go back and redraw all the radii. Is thier a way to convert or export without getting splines? Our machine won't recognize the face drawing unless i redraw all the circular segments.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Stop Creating Splines Of In IDW

Sep 23, 2011

how to stop Inventor from creating splines of in IDW where the geometry is in fact a true arc or circle?

This is absolutely ridiculous and maddening!

If it is a freaking arc or a radius, then make it a freaking arc or a radius instead of a spline!!!

If not, then give AutoCAD a tool to convert a spline into a true arc!!!

Come on Autodesk! Not everyone is using your product for design, some of us are doing so to actually make the damm parts that are drawn in Inventor! A spline that supposed to be an arc is wicked difficult - if not impossible - to send to a waterjet, laser or EDM to cut properly!!!

AutoCAD Inventor :: Fairing Splines And Making Tangent Lines?

Jun 9, 2013

In other softwares when you creat a spline you are able to adjust the curvature between points by dragging the slope handles at a node. In my file, I have thus far been unable to fair my splines with any kind of consistancy. Also, it should be possible to place a tangent constaint to a straight line at a point, yet I haven't been able to do that either. According to the help files this should be an easy thing to adjust, Why am I not able to?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Shaft Coupler-use Design Accelerator To Produce Splines

Sep 17, 2013

is it possible to produce something like in the attached image using the design accelerator? Instead of making a cylinder and sketching the spline patterns and extruding? To me there must be a way besides sketching and use the library's of standard splines patterns and sizes.

AutoCad 2D :: Flattening Splines To Polylines

Sep 9, 2011

I have topo contours that are splines. I want to flatten them so they become polylines that I can give elevation values. When I flatten some, portions of the topo lines become circles.

How do I fix it?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Edit Multiple Splines At Once

May 27, 2011

I am using Autocad Map 3D 2011.  I am looking for a way to edit multiple splines at once similar to the multiple pedit command.  I need to convert them to plines.  I have been selecting them one at a time, typing p, enter enter enter, selecting the next one and so on but it would be a time saver to be able to select multiple splines and have the "convert to pline" command work on all of them.  As it is, if you select more than one it only acts on the first selected.

AutoCad 3D :: Matching Splines Together With Tangency

Feb 11, 2012

Is it possible to match the ends of two splines (whose end points are coincident) such that there is tangency between them. This would require the end control vertex (CV) and preceding CV for each spline to become aligned? I have explored the SPLINEDIT options and see there is a FIT DATA option that leads to TANGENTS option but I'm not sure how this works and whether it will give the desired effect.

AutoCad :: Copying Splines Between Drawings?

May 9, 2012

Got a strange problem when copying geometry that contains splines between drawings.

The image below shows the results, the white dashed line shows the copy result, the blue dots are the control points, and the red line shows the copy input.

It seems that the control points are correct, but the tangencies of those points, or control vertices are WAAAAAY out.

I also get the same result when inserting the geometry as a block..

AutoCAD 2010 :: Splines In A Script?

Mar 7, 2012

I'm writing a script file that will make a few splines and loft them. I wrote out the lines of code and saved the file as a .scr. When I load the script, it will do the first spline but it will not graph the second. It takes the spline command as if it were another point. The text window for the end of the first spline and beginning of the second reads like this:

Specify next point or [Close/Fit tolerance] <start tangent>:
0.000000,0.000000,0.010000
Specify next point or [Close/Fit tolerance] <start tangent>:
Specify start tangent:
Specify end tangent:

[code]....

AutoCAD 2010 :: Converting Splines Into Arcs

Sep 23, 2011

I have a bugging problem.

I usually use Inventor to create a model from customer supplied blueprints, and then use the model to get the 2D geometry into

AutoCAD for further processing.

Now, unfortunately Inventor has a pitiful 2D drawing method, where circles and arcs that do not lie exactly on the plane end up as a spline.

They are true arcs and circles and should be true arcs and circles on the 2D view, but aren't.

What I would like to do is turn them into one.

Is there any command or method to do that?

I was hoping that Overkill would work ..... it doesn't.

AutoCAD VB :: How To Manipulate Existing Splines On A Drawing By Joining Them Together Via VBA

May 16, 2011

I'm new to VBA in AutoCAD I've played with Inventor VBA a bit, but the API appears to be drastically different.

I need to manipulate existing splines on a drawing by joining them together via VBA. To achieve this manually, the user would use the command SPLINEDIT and go from there. What is the equivalent, or how do I access the command in VBA?

AutoCad :: Draw Splines Creates A Jog Or Tail In Drawing

Sep 13, 2012

Sometimes, not in every drawing, but in certain drawings when we draw a spline it creates a jog or tail.

So when we do the command spline and click the start point then move to do the next point it will have this jog or tail at the beginning of the spline. sometimes we get it at the beginning and sometimes at the end.

How do I make it stop? is there a setting that I need to change? We typically work on drawings from Architect / Engineers.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Splines Are Drawn By Connecting Ends Of Two Lines

Oct 18, 2012

I use splines a lot to provide a contiuous smooth curve between two lines which are co-planar. The splines are drawn by connecting the ends of the two lines and then the tangent direction set by hovering over the end grips. I then use the FLATEN command to convert these splines to polylines that can have their lineweights set to a value other than 0. My problem is that sometimes when i use the FLATTEN command, the spline is erased.

AutoCad :: Hatch Long Curved Path That Is Composed Of Polylines And Splines

Jul 30, 2012

I am trying to hatch a long curved path that is composed of polylines and splines that I manually joined together by pedit. When I try to hatch it, I get an error message that says the area is not closed and thus cannot be hatched, but I have no clue where the problem area is. Is there a way to figure out what parts aren't lining up/closed correctly? When I select the object, it shows that all the lines are connected, so I don't really know how to fix this.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert DWF To IPT?

Is it possible to convert a DWF to an .ipt (or .iam) file so that I can use the base DWF geometry in an Inventor assembly?

I have a dwf file that a customer sent me that is ~1.5 Mb.  I asked to get it in a usable format and they sent a .stp file that is 23.3 Mb and Invetor just hangs (not responding).  I let it try to load a few times for several hours without any luck.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Convert IDW To DXF / DWG?

Nov 14, 2013

Using Inventor 2014.

I was going to send autocad drawing to our client.

I found that converting IDW to DXF/DWG doesn't always get 1:1 scale on the DXF/DWG drawing.

In other words, some drawings are fine and the others are not.

It was set correctly in "Options..." by selecting "Base View Scale - Model Space".

There is nothing wrong with IDW files and all these files are using same template.
