How to make an iLogic routine run from a completely different document than the one it's in? I have tried everything from remotely changing properties to even editing a sketch in the model to try an trigger a routine. Nothing works. I have set triggers to fire when the part opens but opening the documents with code doesn't fire those triggers. It’s very frustrating to have to open each part in an assembly manually just to get all the routines to run.
I have been having trouble with parts that do not trigger iLogic rules. I've set the triggering events to After Open Document, but nothing triggers. I must manually open the parts and then click the iTrigger to get the rules to run. This is not all parts only a select few and seemingly random.
Is there something I can do to ensure the triggers fire and the rules to run?
Sidebar: If a part is set for trigger After Open Document should that part trigger the rules when the assembly that the part is in is opened?
Is there any way to close a drawing that is open on another user's computer, from my computer?
We have a problem with engineers opening a drawing, printing and marking up that drawing, then taking the print to a drafter to make changes to the drawing, but failing to close the electronic drawing file.
Normally, we just call the engineer and ask them to close the drawing. If they were away from their desk, we could just walk over and close the drawing ourselves. Now that's not possible. We have a new security protocol which locks the user's computer after ten minutes of non-use. We each create our own password which we're not supposed to share with others. I just want to be able to log into the server and close a drawing that someone else has open.
I have never seen this one before while running a lisp routine: error in dialog file "Y:LispSteel|stl.dc", line 1: warning: redefining object. Symbol:"stl"
stl is a lisp routine we use written in autolisp to insert structural steel members defined by dim files. We have never had a problem with this lisp routine even with the acad 2010 32bit windows XP machines.
- AutoCAD 2010 64bit - Winows7 64bit - Network conditions with acad lisps and blocks on the server. - I have included the stl.dcl file it is having trouble with.
I have a number of .lsp routines that I have loaded into the startup suite. I have their location pathed correctly and at the top of the list in the support file search path under options.
Problem is...they load into the drawing when a drawing is opened, but they will not execute. If I type APPLOAD and re-load them individually, they all seem to work fine.
I'm only having this problem with the computers that are running 2012 in the office.
I have a routine I wrote years ago for R12 and it worked fine. Now when I try it in 2000 it freezes Acad when I select the first button. The routine is for structural steel members and the idea is to select a country of origin which brings up a list, then select a section type from the list which brings up another list of all available sizes. You then select the size member you want then insert it into the drawing. There is also an option to explode the block on insertion. If I remove the (set_lista) section from the following line it doesn't freeze.
(action_tile "AUS" "(setq sectype AA)(setq Country 1)(set_lista)")
(set_lista) is a selection of lists, the list to use is determined by the variable "sectype".
I can select the country I want then cancel the dialog box and type (set_lista) at the command line then reopen the dialog box and the list is refreshed. Just won't do it automatically.
I have writted a set of lisp routines with dcl files that I have implemented in most versions of Autocad since release 14. I can install the toolbars in Autocad 2013 but when I try to execute on of the commands, either by toolbar icon or command line, I get the message "Unknown Command".
I need to access Photoshop CS 5.5 running under Windows 7 remotely. I have Go To My PC and is works, but is there a solution that is better and faster?
Second, is the PC from which I access Photoshop relevant to performance – assuming I stick with Go To My PC?

4 little helper functions to turn off & on the ToolTips associated with alignments. Handy for when you have a number of nearby alignments and you don't need the constant showing of all the data.

I am trying to map values to my title block using an autolisp routine. I have entered (getenv "NEXTSHEET") & (getenv "PREVSHEET") into the descriptions fields and mapped these routines to 'NEXT_ATTRNAME' & 'PREV_ATTRNAME' attributes. When I run the title block updates no values appear on my drawing. Please note that I have included the program in my start-up suite. Please also note that when I enter 'NEXTSHEET' or 'PREVSHEET' on the command line, the routines are called and the correct values are shown on the command line. I just need these values to be visible on my drawing. I have attached the Autolisp routine that I am running.
I've gotten these two routines from different threads on here. One works with *text and blocks. The second works with multileaders.
I'd like to merge the two so one command can work with a selection set of any of the above objects (assume selection set of mixed objects - some multileaders, some text, some blocks)

I have hundreds of drawings I want to run through scriptpro with a script calling 3 different lisp routines. I have the 3 lisps working independantly but can't figure out how to get them to all run in one script.
Two of the Lisps are for redefining the title block in 2 different types of drawings that have different title blocks. The last lisp locks all viewports in all windows. I'll attach the 3 lisps I'm trying to merge in the script. I am not very versed in scripts and lisps so I'm guessing at least 2 of these lisps could be merged into a single lisp...
Here is what I have for the script file contents (which doesn't work):
I had Photoshop CS5 installed on my laptop. The hard drive recently crashed and had to be replaced. Because it crashed suddenly, I was unable to deactivate the install. Is there any way to remotely deactivate it so I can install it on the new hard drive? I have a Student copy so it can only be activated on one computer at a time.
I have a Nikon D4 with a WT-5 wireless transmiter and lightroom 3.6. When I follow the steps to make it work, lightroom cannot detect the camera, but the camera does seem to recognize lightroom.
I am attempting to import a previous customized menu with routines that worked beautifully in Autocad 2002. I can import the menu but the routines don't work. I have copied the search paths identical to those in Autocad 2002 in the tools>options>files in the support file search path, but to no avail.
The menu was developed by Andy Pease (Andy Acad) who is now with Autodesk.
We are working together whit another firm and we would like to share our tool pallets and lisp routines. The pallets and lisp files we would like to share are quite large so we would like to simply send them a USB stick whit all the files and a title "executable" program that automatically puts them on the right place and changes the appropriate information.
I want to setup my camera, Nikon D5100, for pole aerial photography. I want to have the ability to connect my laptop to the camera up on the pole so I can adjust zoom, etc.
I understand how Smart Previews work. What I'm unsure of is...will we be able to edit these files remotely, separate from the host computer? For example, I'm an image editor and I live 500 miles away from the photographer that I work for. Can they (the photographer) download the images after shooting, create Smart Previews then send me the 'Smart Preview' folder of images, I edited them on my own computer then return the Smart Previews back to them fully edited?
The "view and organize photos" mode seems to work just fine, but when I attempt to open the "edit and enhance photos" mode, I get an error box with this message: "Could not load the FastCore Routines module because the file could not be found", and then it shuts down after I click ok. I have installed the 5.0.2 patch and have uninstalled and reinstalled the program, to no avail. I had no firewall running when installing the program, nor do I own the program "Clean Sweep". What can I do?
Is there a way in the description field of an Inventor hole table to have mixed units? Some hole sizes at fractions, some at 2 plc, and others at 3 places.
I'm trying to use iLogic Design Copy to copy an assembly and all its associated parts to another directory. The assembly contains content center parts. Inventor warns me that the destination file of one of the CC parts (and 18 others) will be overwritten. When I go ahead and copy anyway, the copying process stops at that specific CC part. The Design Copy Progress dialog box states there is an error copying that CC part. When I close the Design Copy Progress dialog box, Inventor crashes.
The error copying the CC part: I'm allowed to use content center parts in iLogic Design Copied stuff, right? I searched some related topics and I'm under the impression that Inventor keeps the CC parts in its own directory and shouldn't be trying to overwrite them.
We are trying to get task scheduler to automatically download certain files from the Vault. Templates and Styles. The templates work great, but there is no way to specify any filetypes other than Inventor filetypes. Am I missing something? Is there a way to specify non-inventor filetypes?
Can't seem to locate the Inventor Material Library....under Default in Projects, the Inventor Material Library is highlighted in Red. Where I need to browse to inorder to locate it?
Is there a program that can make stp files from our inventor models? Our purchasing department wants to do this task for our vendors and they don't want in have a full version of Inventor to do it.
So I installed TD Inventor Professional 30-Day free trial and I downloaded the installer and went through the download of the installer process and it made an autodesk inventor folder on my desktop. I click on it and it takes me into the C drive under the autodesk file Inventor 2012 TestDrive and has an Application called TDSetup. Once I click on it it does a load wheel then nothing happens.
I can't seem to find a solution and I just installed DirectX.
