I have a part rendered in Inventor Studio- Looks great when I save it as a .bmp and print it. How can I add dimensions and leaders and callout to this rendered imaged?

I was adding text and leaders to a drawing and after the text was entered I pushed the escape key. It then asked me if I want to save my text. It also had a check box asking me if I always want to perform that so it wouldn't keep popping up with that question. Well, I had checked that I didn't want the text and I also checked the box to always perform that answer. And now it won't save any text that I write. It just keeps the leader. How can I get the text to stay and undo the box that I checked to always answer that way (to not keep text)?

Everything is perfect. But if any plan or axis visible in document than results comes wrong! I think box object calculating the dimensions not only according to raw part. It adding the axis or plan dimensions to the result!...

What is the best procedures wrt to Hatch, Dimension and Text Elements when Rendering especially that those elements appear extra light and difficult to distinguish. However those same elements in Paper Space following usage of chspace seems ok.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently using AutoCad 3d 2011 and i am trying to add some graphics (bmp. or jpegs) to surfaces. In model space when materials are on the graphics are there. When i go to render in the graphics come out grey. However if i change the lighting settings to American lighting units the graphics then appear when it is rendered. Why is this? I do not like using American units as it always makes my renders appear washed out.
How graphics can be seen in any of the other lighting units? or why this may be happening?
We recently upgraded from Autodesk Inventor 11 to Autodesk Inventor 13. For some reason the text box cuts off any leader I try to put over it. I thought this might be a glitch on my machine at first till I realized that it would not work on any machine in our office. I must have clicked a wrong button or something when installing Autodesk Inventor 13 because it worked perfectly fine in Autodesk Inventor 11.

I have a rendering image in PNG format that I want to have dimension. These dimensions will be in all 3 planes.
I want them allinged to object sort of like what you get when you view dimensons in perspective (first arrow is bigger than second arrow text is getting smaller as it goes further away etc.).
Currently I import my image and draw each arrow, each line, slant the text and it looks so-so... not the greatest and it is A LOT OF WORK. Then i print the dimensions to and image and combine the rendering and image in GIMP.
Is there any way to align leaders in a drawing file? I can't even seem to get a "tracking" line so I can manually align them.

Is there a way to make a dimension style that will automatically add a particular value to the dimension amount?
Example: actual dimension in decimal mode is 17.0 but i want the dimension to be displayed 21.0 (automatically adding 4.0 to it).
Is there a way to attach multiple leaders to text or weld symbols?

It sounds strange to do this but the letter represents a dimension in a chart format that are Basic dimensions.

I am using autocad lt 2014 and have some multi leaders on a tool palette that work fine but if I hit enter or right click for enter the multi leader will use what ever leader is set from the multi leader style that is set on the multi leader style control, but only the leader will come in wrong the text will come in correct.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a dynamic block that contains a quick leader. The problem I have is when I go to my layout views the leader in the block does not show up. If I edit the block, change the layer of the leader and save it then the leader will show up in viewports. Other parts of the block are on the same layer and show up, it is just the leader for some reason.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI do a lot of taking other peoples drawings and incorporate our portion of work onto theirs and often shrink the viewports to our sections alone. Their drawings often have information that we don't want on our drawings to insure we are not responsible for the work. Presently, they drew the detail in ms and annotation in ps (which i personally think is retarded).
I want to keep the dimensions but not the leaders and comments. Is there any way to delete all mtext and leaders quickly without deleting dimensions. Only think I can think of is highlight dimensions and convert them to ms via modify then go into ps and ctrl A and delete.
Any export issue with Revit, where the leaders in the Revit model are exploded when the model is exported to AutoCAD. If so is there a setting or a procedure in Revit that fixes this other then redrawing the leaders in AutoCAD?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn one of the xref’s there is a linetype that I’m having trouble with (actually I’m not sure if it’s the linetype or a setvar that’s the problem). The line is a polyline. Linetype generation is turned on. LTscale is set correctly. The line is set to display the linetype by layer…not entity. Line weight is set to default. It has a global width of 0.333. Here’s the problem….In the main drawing, I have a layout which has leaders in paper space pointing to the line in the xref. They are touching the line where I want them. THEN…when I print the page….the leaders are no longer pointing to the line. They (the leaders) display correctly but can’t be printed as seen. Not to a PDF, not to a printed page. See below:

UPDATE: It looks like the problem is with the drawing that the xref is attached to....not the xref!
I am working on a drawing where the annotation scale was 1:30 and I changed it to 1:40 and all my annotative leaders no longer line up horizontally (the little line just before the text....see attached example).
Is there a way of globally fixing this issue without having to fix each one independently?
So we are doing some plans production standards. One thought was why are leaders needed if all the object are called out witha station and offset in civil engineering plans?
Why use text leaders in cad plans?

I have downloaded Inventor 14, and the program appears to start up without problems. However, when i create a simple sketch, it first says "Choose a plane". In my textbook, it shows a picture of the three planes to choose from. However, my computer screen shows a blank gray screen. It appears some tool bars are missing as well.
However, if i click in the space where I imagine the axis should be, it takes me into sketch mode. Similarly, when I draw a line, the information bar reads like I am drawing a line, but no line shows up on the screen.
Is there a specific requirement on my computer I could be missing? I have downloaded Inventor twice, and both times had the same problem with the program. Perhaps a video card I need to have, or a certain RAM requirement?
