AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Evenly Space Contours Around Curves In Surface

Jun 21, 2013

Any way to evenly space contours around a curve in a surface.

Many times I have a steep area in a surface that needs to be displayed using 1 foot contour intervals, and in certain areas the contours are crossing each other around curved areas, like a curve in a ditch. In the past i have had to "fudge" the surface a little to get the contours to look correct.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Program To Evenly Space Objects Across Given Distance

Dec 28, 2013

I would like to write some sort of AutoLISP program to evenly space objects across a given distance.  I have attached a .pdf file showing what exactly I mean.

I would like the program to enable me to either enter or measure (via the selection of two points) the "z" distance, to enter or measure the "y" distance, and to enter the number of objects, "n".  I would then like the program to evenly space "n" objects across the "z" distance.

A program like this is, I have to be honest and say, way beyond my current capabilities.

Perhaps some initial guidance to get me going?

Illustrator :: Distribute Spaces Option Doesn't Space Evenly In CS6

May 24, 2012

I'm working in Adobe Illustrator CS6 and neither the Distribute Spaces Option nor Distribute Object Option are working.It doesn't seem to matter if it's a print or web document. Doing the same thing to the same document/graphics in CS5.1 works perfectly.
 
Copypasteing the correctly distributed objects from CS5.1 to CS6 works ok, and if i then repeat the Distribute spaces option nothing changes and it stays correctly distributed. (read: it doesn't badly distribute like before)

CorelDRAW X4 :: Grid / Table Layout - How To Evenly Space Rows And Columns

May 14, 2012

I want to draw up a large grid or table in AO sized paper.  I will then get it laminated and use it to write down on the left hand column each company I see and sell to.  Then beside the company running horizontally I want little check boxes that I can tick off with a marker to not when I last visited that company. 

So how doe I make a large sized table with evenly spaced columns and rows etc.

I though that I could just select the table button and set how many rows etc then click and drag.  This works, but I want to be able to enter in a value of say 100mm wide by 30mm high and set that for each grid.

The only setting like that is for the actual whole area of the grid/table not each individual cell. Can it be done like how I said?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: How To Space Lines Evenly Along Radius Of Specific Range

Jul 11, 2011

I have a radius that is spread between 10 and 40 degrees that I need to evenly space 6 line segments throughout.

What this is for is a property with 5 lots along a curved street. Each lot is the same size and I am trying to draw just the sections that are affected. I have tried using the star feature and reducing it to single lines, but they do not space evenly and getting the line number is very difficult. I have tried dividing the angle range and come up with the correct angle and spacing but this is also an issue. Is there any way to do this without dragging each line separately?

Illustrator :: How To Join Anchor Points Into One Ellipse

Aug 12, 2012

In the above image, I have four symmetrical corners of an ellipse which I'm trying to join together into one ellipse that is perfectly symmetrical. I am trying to line up the anchors perfectly (one corner at time) and then do a join, yet the result is always slightly off. I've been selecting the two points I want to join and using Path -> Average, then Path -> Join to do this, yet as mentioned it's not coming out precise.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern On Ellipse

Feb 14, 2013

I'm having difficulty with a sheet metal part creating a flat pattern for it. The shape is an ellipse with the dimensions shown in the second picture. When I attempt to create a flat pattern it just shows the side of the part. The sheet metal defaults are correct for the part and it was ripped to created a base point for the pattern. I need to create a DXF for manufacture. I would just use the flat pattern it gives me and mirror it twice to create a pattern but it doesn't factor in the radius of the part. How to create a correct flat pattern for this item?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimension Ellipse Drawing Feature

Jul 26, 2012

I'm trying to dimension an ellipse in the Inventor Drawing Feature. I've attached the .idw files. (the .ipt is too large)I am aware that the ellipse doesn't have a constant radius and was wondering what is accepted practice for these dimensions?

I need to first dimension the external elliptical shape (which I'm struggling at), might just add a note.

Secondly I'm trying to dimension the mesh part, its not centrally align to the part and since I can't put a center mark on I'm not sure how I should dimension this...

AutoCAD Inventor :: Super Ellipse Equation Curve

Dec 11, 2012

I'm trying to use the equation curve to draw a super ellipse.The formula I'm trying to translate for inventor is the following.I'm guessing this should be possible using the abs() for the first section and an IF() statement for the second. The problem is Iäm not even getting the abs() to work at all. How to translate this formula?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To See Vertical And Horizontal Dimensions Of Ellipse

Mar 12, 2012

I have build a solid in which the projection of the hole on the face of the cube is an ellipse. However, as I did not create the ellipses on the faces, but the ellipses are just the result of the projection of an empty egg inside an extruded rectangle on the faces of the extruded rectangle. How can I see the dimensions of the ellipses? I tried to use the measure distance command, but with no success.

I´m attaching the model file.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Extrude Cut From Offset Ellipse

Feb 7, 2012

I am having trouble creating an extrude-cut from an offset ellipse.  It seems that when the ellipse is offset, it becomes an associative spline.  I need it to remain associative with the original ellipse. 

But, when I try to extrude a profile using the new spline, it won't recognize the edge.

I can't just create a new ellipse, as it's profile won't quite match the offset one.  I tried tracing over the ellipse with a spline, but it then requires a vast amount of dimensions to constrain it all together.

I'm trying to extrude-cut the red outlined profile (including the elliptical part of course)..

Here is the part.  I am working in Inventor 2009.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Use Lofted Flange On Offset Ellipse

Jun 27, 2012

I am currently working with an elliptic profile that needs to be unfolded. The part consists of two sketches, with each sketch having two ellipses. The ellipses on each sketch then forms a cross-section where the thickness of it is supposed to be 8 mm (the first ellipse is offsett).

My plan is then to generate a mold for the inner and outer sides of this part by using the "Lofted flange" function and Rip, since I want the flat pattern of it. However, I've found that I can not select my offset ellipse when using Lofted flange, only the original one. I'm thinking that this might be caused due to the offset ellipse not actually being an ellipse but a spline (I read somewhere that there are two ways of offsetting an ellipse. One generates a mathematical ellipse and the other a spline). Creating an new ellipse and then saying that the a and b distance should be 8 mm less than the other ellipse will work, but that will not give me a constant wall thickness of 8 mm along the circumference of the elliptic cross-section.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Tangent Assembly Constraint - Ellipse Surface To Line

Aug 26, 2013

Why can't Inventor constrain an ellipsoidal contour with a line? We have pressure cylinders which uses a 2:1 ellipse. These cylinder get welded to a base stand fixture. The surface of the ellipse nestles in between contact points of the base stand, in this case lines of geometry. Yet Inventor can't constrain them as such. Any good workflow (at the assembly level) so that we don't have to ground components and use the Analyze Interference tool to make sure we are right on the surfaces? I don't understand why it will work for a cylindrical surface but not an elliptical surface.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 Moving Geometry From Flat Pattern Sketch Space To Flat Pattern Space

Jan 2, 2012

I am trying to export geometry found in a flat pattern sketch overlaid onto the flat pattern.

Since I am creating the output file manually I gather the flat pattern boundaries and bend center lines for output to a file.

When I add flat pattern sketch entities to the mix they do not overlay properly.  What matrix would I have to push the sketch entities through to get them to the same coordinates as the flat pattern?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Routine To Place Lights In Room Evenly?

Jan 13, 2013

Lisp routine that divided up a normal square / rectangle room and insert a block at each given point.

At present if the room was to have four lights width ways and three lights length ways we would divide the width by eight to give us 1/2 1 1 1/2 so the lights would be placed on every second point after the divde command (dividing the room by twice the amound of lights needed).
