View 2 RepliesI need to define a mate constraint with a workplane as EntityOne and a midpoint from an Edge as EntityTwo.
API-Help tells me valid objects are planar faces, linear edges, vertices, cylindrical faces, conical faces, spherical faces, revolved faces, work planes, work axes, and work points.
The Edge object gives me StartVertex and StopVertex, but what about the midpoint?
I am polymodeling and want to restrict a vertex to moving only along one of its corresponding edges. Seems like there was a drop down for this but I am totally missing it right now.

I would like to move two different vertex, from different mesh, at the same place. I thought maybe I could put a guide or a landmark to the position I want the vertexes to be. I can't find anything about guides in 3ds max

Use Axis Constraints is ON in the Grid and Snap Settings but when i hoover over the vertex the snap goes away and a small circle shows up. When i click the vertex and drag it the axis constraints are turned off. I use the vertex snap all the time.
I have a character I have been working on for a while. All of the sudden when I try to extrude an edge, target weld switches to vertex and does not weld. Target weld is greyed out under edit meshedges.
I did play with some UVW unwrapping, but have removed that.
When I go to crop or move an image close to the edge of the canvas it jumps to the edge. I am having trouble especially with cropping the space between the image and the edge of the canvas the way I want it. turning off this jumping to edge problem I'm having?
Also, I've used CS4 a fair bit and haven't come across this same problem but in PE when I'm editing things like adjusting text on a layer and I'm changing options with hotkeys to resize the text box for eg, Elements seems to jump to the background layer quite alot and then I have to click back on the layer I want to edit between changing tools. Is it something to do with the Esc key?
Is there a quick way to replace/update images in Edge animate? It was simple to do in Flash but I haven't seen the same function in Edge.

1) I have a solid with vertical walls. I need a solid, were some walls ar not vertical. So I need to move some vertices to the offset of top edge. Please, check a pic.
(yellow edges have to be were are the red ones).I did it with construction lines, but I'm sure there is a more efficient way (with a command like offset).

2) Can I offset just a part of the solid at all?
i have a csv file that has 6 columns, PNEZD and a 6th column which is my notes..i type a star in the data collector after my code, make my note, and then find/replace after i export it and replace star with a column..that gives the desired 6th column in excel that my boss wants....problem is he also wants to see that next to the Full Description in Civil 3d 2012...i tried adding a Point File Format with a 6th Column, User Defined, String for type...named the column Notes...but if i go to edit the point there is no 6th column in the Tool Palette.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to build a small photo gallery within Edge Animate. I have a symbol which is essentially 10 images or so side by side, and buttons below that are directional arrows left and right. I want to have it set up where when you hover over one of those buttons, it moves the photo slideshow left and right. I havent been able to find the correct code and it is currently inoperable.
Right now, I have this in the BtnRight symbol, which is the arrow to move the slideshow to the right.
sym.$('PhotoTimeline').animate({
left: "+=30px",
}, 20 );
}, 2000);
It doesn't work however. Any simple code that I can input into the syntax of the arrow symbols to allow my photo gallery to slide left and right on mouse over?
I am capturing a book-case design that I made long ago into Intentor. I am almost finished, and I want to produce .dwg files and a bill of materials of parts that can be held.
For various reasons, almost all the items in the existing design are assemblies, and the underlying parts correspond more or less to half of physical parts that are contained inside a repeating cell. I will almost certainly continue using this approach.
A simplified design that shows this is at [URL]..... in the file Display.iam
I created the file Slat.ipt by using derive (Slat.iam).
If I replace the Slat assemblies with the file Slat.ipt, the bill of materials will show parts that correspond to physical parts that I can hold in my hand, or list on an invoice. I can do this with many, many mouse operations.
To make this modification quickly, I attempted to do Component -> replace on the Slat assembly. I use this operation a lot to replace one version of an assembly with another. When I do it with a .ipt file, the system pauses for some tens of seconds, then crashes.
A brute force work around is to use the mouse to do the replacement, essentially rebuilding the entire project in place.
I am creating an iAssembly with iParts. Some of the iParts have the "Table Replace" colum option and some do not. Both iParts have tables with members and part numbers. See pic.

I would like to put family A in folder A
I would like to put family B in folder B
etc
During testing I had 10 seals in one folder & used :
Component.Replace("Part1:1", "OtherPartfilename.ipt", True)
But splitting the parts up into different folders breaks the model because (I'm guessing) the part can't be found. My thought was to have one folder (Seals) with subfolder (Seal A, Seal B,etc) - is there a way to search the sub folders & use replace?
If I stick with one folder it will end up containing 300+ parts which will look messy.
We get our clients acad drawings of the layout of the ceiling. Normally we use it as xref in acad. Now that I have placed the acad drawing in an .Ipt and placed them in a. Iam like you see in the files I sent. Then i place the panels with iCopy.
Now it happens that the layout drawing changes and I get a new acad drawing. I then replace it with the already placed drawing in the .ipt. This is fine until i update the .iam and then i get alerts that the constraints are no longer correct because the geometry is no longer be found.
What I can do is change the sketch in the .ipt but that is then done manually with the possibility of errors. Now my question is if you know a way to replace the drawing in the. Ipt and update so that the constriants stay correct in the .iam and the panels will change with the drawing?
I am trying to replace the title block of the first sheet of the active drawing via C#. I currently am receiving the following error on the last line of The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG)).
Why the code below is throwing this error? I have tried multiple variations of the code below to no avail and I'm sure this is something minor that I am overlooking. The title block definition under Drawing Resources is replaced with no errors, the title block on Sheet 1 is deleted just fine, but I can't seem to add a Title Block back in!
How Documents are defined:
Inventor._DrawingDocument oDoc = getDoc();Inventor.DrawingDocument sourceDoc =(Drawing Document) instance.Documents. OpenWith Options(sPath, options, false); Find, copy, replace: TitleBlockDefinition tBlock = sourceDoc.TitleBlockDefinitions[blockList.SelectedItem.ToString()]; TitleBlockDefinition newBlock = tBlock.CopyTo(oDoc, true); oDoc.Sheets[1].TitleBlock.Delete(); oDoc.Sheets[1].AddTitleBlock(newBlock);
I would like to know if there is any possibility to replace a component with another one, that has a different internal name. Losing the dependencies would be acceptable.
ReplaceReference and PutLogicalFileNameUsingFull always return the error "wrong parameter".
I have an assembly which I want to replace one of the parts with one of four other parts.
My code reads:
Select Case Width
Case "750"
Component.Replace("part:1", "L:Drawingspart2", True)
End Select
This works fine and when 750 is selected, part1 is replaced with part2.
My problem is then if I want to select "1000" I don't know the part name which I will be replaced by part3 as this could be part1, part2, part4,or part5.

I am trying to model the following simple structure:
I made this example by creating a new polygonal cylinder, rotating the top edges that are to the right of the x-axis and repositioning the affected vertices afterwards, but doing it that way just doesnt feel right, it seems too unclean to me.
I would like the affected vertices to only move on a given axis when rotating the edges, so I dont need to reposition them after the rotate operation. I tried to illustrate what I mean in the following screenshot:
The edges I want to rotate are marked in red, the vertices that are supposed to only move on the y-axis are marked in green. The arrows indicate the desired movement.
Is this way of rotating an edge possible with the rotate tool or something?
I'm trying to make an interactive animation where when the user clicks and moves the mouse around an area, the opacity of that part of the layer decreases and the user gets to see the background layer. It's similar to the idea of using a brush to clean a dirty window.
