AutoCAD Inventor :: Repositioning Dimensions In Drawing Through API?

Jun 24, 2013

I'm trying to reposition dimensions in a drawing through the API. The output of my code seems to indicate the method is working, but after it runs the drawing is unchanged.  Here's the code (in VBA):

Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument
Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSheet As Sheet
Set oSheet = oDoc.Sheets.Item(1)
Dim oLdim As LinearGeneralDimension
Dim oLeaderNote As LeaderNote
Dim oDimLine As LineSegment2d ' Dimension Line
Dim oStartPt As Point2d ' Dimension Line Start Point
Dim oEndPt As Point2d ' Dimension Line End Point

[code]....

Looks like it moved my vertical dimension left, but it doesn't actually do anything.   Is this not a viable method for repositioning a dimension?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Apprentice Server - Printer Always Print Out The Drawing On Letter Size Paper

May 20, 2005

I am having problems printing to drawing sizes other then A Size (Letter).

I have scanned through the messages in this Newsgroup and tried everything that I have found, including making sure that I set the properties in a specific order.

No matter what size I specify, the printer spits out the drawing on an A Size piece of paper.

Here is my

Private Sub PlotInventorDrawing(strDwgPath As String, strPlotSize As
String, strPlotter As String)

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 :: ILogic - Drawing Feature Suppression

Jul 23, 2012

I am looking to use iLogic to create feature suppression in individual drawing views, i.e for simplicity, in view 1 part has a hole in view 2 part does not have a hole it has been suppressed

I am aware this can be done with iParts but im trying to avoid using iparts.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Feature Suppression In Drawing Views?

Jun 23, 2011

Problem:  I have a part that goes through several processes, casting, machined, finish.  I want to create a drawing sheet with views displaying the part through different stages.

Solution One:  Create as many different parts (with different file names) for each stage and place the views accordingly.  Really?  Three or more part files to illustrate a single part? 

Solution Two:  Create a user parameter that will auto-suppress features to create different Levels of Details on Parts, but there is no way to initiate/set the user parameter for different views.

I understand 2012 has the ability to create part design representations, but we are still on 2011 and I am leery to upgrade for a feature that still might not work properly.

There has to be a way to suppress features in a specific view...iLogic? iPart?  anything?  I simply can't believe this is the case.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Getting Model Feature From Selected Drawing Curve?

Sep 11, 2012

Im trying to create some code for another user which takes the pre-selected drawing curve and retrieves the feature information from the model. More specifically, I want to pre-select the drawing curve of a hole, and then run the rule. The rule will take this selected drawing curve and get its model. Then from here I'm expecting I'll be able to use the Hole Feature classes in the API to retrieve the wanted information. 

I've tried using SelectSet.Item(1by tut cannot seem to be able to set it as a drawing curve (or anything for that matter).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Show Which Drawing Section Is On?

Oct 24, 2011

I have a drawing where I am cutting a section on one sheet and them moving it to another sheet. Is there a way to get the section mark/callout to state on which sheet the section resides?

For example instead of the section just stating "A" it would say "A/3" or "A/Sheet 3" or something like that?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Display Area For Drawing Section In Text Box

AutoCAD Inventor :: Scale Detail Cross-section Hatching In Drawing?

Aug 7, 2013

Is it possible to scale the cross-hatching in a detail that was created from a section view so it looks better with the scale of a detail? If the scale factor of a detail is much larger than its parent, the cross-hatching is very sparse and detracts from clarity rather than adding to it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Section View Preview As Uncut In Drawing

Jul 12, 2012

I've just started to do some work with Inventor 2013 and I noticed that, when creating a section view in a drawing, the preview is always uncut and shaded. Even when creating a partial section, the preview shows the full, shaded assembly. I tried playing with the "Section View Preview as Uncut" setting in Application Options, but this doesn't seem to do anything.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Option In Drawing Mode To Exclude Parts From Section View

Feb 1, 2012

Is there an option in drawing mode to exclude certain parts from a section view.

According to ASME Y14.3 parts such as shafts, keys bolts and nuts should be excluded in sectional view. Its not just removing the Hatching, the part has to show completely.

The closest I found in Inventor is that you can exclude Standard parts from being sectioned. Some of my parts are not in the standard library.

I would like to have the option to choose which parts I want to section and which ones I don't.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Possible To Edit Feature Line Via Section?

Oct 22, 2012

I have a complex grading situation with a sewer near a drainage channel. Long story short.... I need to somehow look at my alignment section by section and try to establish a feature line that will represent my proposed top of slope. There are a ton of different constraints that I will not go into. My ultimate need is the ability to establish a feature line or 3d pline from the section view. I know that this is somehow possible via corridors. Im working with just an aligment and cross sections at every 25 feet. Is this possible?

And it puts all labels in the same layer.

Photoshop Elements :: Different Blocks Of Text And Colors Changing From Letter To Letter Within Words

Jun 26, 2013

I have a project with many different blocks of text, and colors changing from letter to letter within words.
 
How do I identify what any given color is?
 
When I click on a letter, it shows me a visual block of the color, but doesn't tell me what the corresponding color number is.
 
Problem being, if I see one letter and want to take its color to use it elsewhere, I have no way of knowing what that color is.

Paint.NET :: Drawing Perfect Letter O - Placing Ellipse With The Circle

Jan 29, 2014

I'm making a logo for someone by hand-drawing a font I made up.  But because I was having trouble drawing a perfect letter 'O', I'm using the "Circle/Ellipse" tool to do it.  I drew an 'O' with that tool that's almost the right size... and I wanna draw another one just a little shorter... but I can't figure out how to place the completed new shape directly over the old one.

I don't know where to start the action with the tool!  The completed shape always ends up in the wrong place. How to get my finished shape to complete just where I want it to? (Re-sizing the shape won't work because that changes the thickness of the line I used for the letter 'O'.)

AutoCad :: Repositioning Via Rotate - But Not Directly Rotating

Oct 25, 2011

I'm trying to have some advanced positioning - I don't know if this can be done using dynamic blocks. Start with some basic geometry - let's say a triangle - /. Now, I can add a rotate parameter & action that will let me spin that as I wish.

Next - add a couple attributes. I have a pair of attributes, separated by a text, aligned as "A1.A2" A1 is right-justified, and A2 is left-justified, so when edited they remain in the form "A1.A2" regardless of length. I can now add a point parameter, combined with a move action, that will let me reposition these three entities freely.

My question - can I have the rotate action trigger a move, such that the text repositions to a defined location without changing orientation (DON'T rotate the text!)?

So if I start with (leading . used for positioning in this forum text box):. A1.A2

I want to rotate it to: A1.A2

While I'd love to have it totally self-adjust, I mainly need it to handle 45-degree increments of rotation.Is there a way of expressing this using dynamic blocks using action and/or constraints? Or would this require a lisp construct?
