View 9 RepliesLike the subject says. I know there is a place to check or uncheck whether you want Adobe Reader to launch after you have saved a file to .pdf but for the life of me I can't remember where that is located.

Is there an automatic way to force a mesurement, to become Referenced? (driven)?
Even if sketch is not yet totally constrained?
After finishing a part in Inventor 2014 a want to store it as a STL file. Thats no problem but when the part is saved as STL it measurement don't add up any more. The STL file becomes a factor 10 smaller. So 50mm ends up as 5mm. So thats a problem.

Is this setting stored in the registry? Where?
...and why does Inventor default to a non metric measurement unit?
There *is* a command you can use to launch PDF documents from a button in AutoCAD LT, isn't there? (I do mean "open", in Acrobat Reader or equivalent.)
I know there used to be one, because I have macros that used START to open a PDF file. However, they were built for AutoCAD LT 2007, and START is not a known command in AutoCAD LT 2010.this icon should launch the CAD manual..
I have a DXF file in Autocad LT which I need to import into a CAD Reader for a CNC machine. The cad reader can only view a 2D image of the TOP of the part. The problem is that the view I want the cad reader to see is the RIGHT hand side view in Autocad. Is it possible to reassign the views in Autocad LT 2008 so that the right hand side view become the top view therefore allowing the cad reader to see the correct side.

I fount that if a setting on the width factor or the inncline factor of the text is changed, the text is not recognize.
A client of mine is unable to read correctly the pdf that I send him. The issue is this: I generate my pdf with the DWG to PDF.pc3 in my ACAD 2012 (64bits).
Within our office, the pdf looks correct, but when our client opens it, the mtext notes appear disorganized.
I am attaching two screenshots: text1 is how our pdf looks, text2 is how it looks when our client opens it.

The difference in image quality is because I receive a scan of what he prints.
After plot using "DWG to PDF.pc3", Autocad 2012 will open the pdf with Adobe PDF, how can i prevent is to do this?

That function works fine and generated the PDF successfully.
Only problem is after generating the PDF, Adobe Reader is opened to display that DWG file which I have plotted.
so is it possible to plotting to PDF file without opening Adobe Reader?
How do we flip the dimension numbers from one side of the line to another?
My dimension always appears on the left hand side for a vertical line and on the top for horizontal line... Can I make them appear on the bottom or right side?

there is no value, why?
Is there like in 3ds max an option to know how heavy your scene is in objects or lines? In 3ds max you can easely estimate how heavy your scene is by checking your total polygons per scene or per selection.

However, my MacBook hard drive just went west so unable to migrate. The discs are back at home, in another country.
Does anyone know how I can get my hands on the RAW reader for my back up MacBook, or at least something I can download fro the net while I'm away?
I would like to create text prefix "aa" and remove measurement (numbers indicating length )
How to remove this measurement ?

wymiartyprot01.TextPrefix = "aa"
I've recently re-install my AutoCAD on my Win7 PC and now whenever I try to draw a Line, there's this automatic measurement of the length of the line I'm stretching. It is really causing a lag on my PC for some reason and I seem to can't find a way to turn it off.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI needed to know the Side Opposite so that I could subtract that amount from a known line length.
I knew the angle (24) and the side adjacent (.9375) therefore SIN 24 = X/.9375 .0467= X/.9375 = .3813
When I measure the side opposite I get .4172
See attached screenshot.
I use to work drawing, calculating and budgeting corrugated steel for foundations and I always have the same problem. Once i have desinged and drawn all the lines (or polilines) i have to count every single corrugated steel to know how many of them I have in order to know metters of steel that we have to order to the manufacturer.
any command that autocad has to measure this kind of lines or polilines?how many metters of corrugated steel I have.

If I try to import the ones I had previously added, they are imported again although I have the "Don't import suspected duplicates" box checked. I have to unchecked all the files and then recheck the new ones.

How to convert the “existing” hatch from one measurement to another?
In the screenshot below, the first hatch is drawn with “measurement” = 1 (metric), while the second is drawn when the measurement = 0 (imperial). The “measurement” value is not a property for the hatch!
Then how to convert the hatch that already exist and drawn with the “measurement” = 0 to the “measurement” = 1.
In other words, how to switch all the hatches in a particular plan from being “imperial” based (measurement = 0) to “metric” (measurement = 1)?
Is there a way to do that? Or should we delete the existing hatches and re-draw them with the required setting (metric/imperial)?
I've just downloaded Autocad 2013 and I cannot figure out how to measure linear or angular dimensions. I'm familiar with older versions of Autocad, but this is the first time I've tried to use 2013.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe measure tool is not giving me the correct measurement. For example, I offset a line 24' and when I go to double check the distance it is off by .03. That is starting on the original line and doing a perpendicular snap to the other line. So I thought, wait a minute that can't be right, so I drew a line between the two lines and did an inquiry and it gave me 24'.
I also did a dimension which also was correct. I also measured a 97' line and it was off by 3 feet. Never had issues with previous versions of Autocad as far as measuring.
