AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get Scale To Show Up Properly In Title Block

Jun 13, 2008

how do you get the scale to show up properly in the title block? I've been searching and finding nothing on this issue, with exception of Autodesk personnel telling users to use the scale display on the views. I know it's not the "Autodesk way" of doing things, but my company has been putting the main view scale in the title block for over 30 years.

I've been using Patrick de Stobbeleir's "iProperty Collection" utility since Inv11, and it does the job. The thing that bugs me, though, is that I can't figure out how to get the FirstViewScale:x custom properties to work intelligently in my title blocks. I just use the property FirstViewScale in my title block, which displays the scale of the first view put down...no matter what the sheet.

how I can use the FirstViewScale:x property in title blocks such that x is the sheet number? So far we just have the first sheet use the FirstViewScale, and then subsequent sheets use a prompted entry (I know it's an ugly work-around).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Scale In Title Block - No Prompted Entry / Keep Current Sheet Active

Apr 9, 2013

 First, it requires there to be a prompted entry text box in the title block named <SCALE>, is there any way to write to a textbox that is not prompted entry?  The prompt when a new drawing or sheet is created is misleading and makes users think they need to manually fill out the prompt.  Secondly, this code works on multi-sheet drawings but it concludes by making the last sheet active.  Since we are triggering this rule before save it's a nuisance to have the drawing switch sheets everytime you do a save.  Ideally, the current active sheet should remain active when the rule runs.  Here is the
 
For Each oSheet In ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.Sheets
ActiveSheet=ThisDrawing.Sheet(oSheet.Name)
If oSheet.TitleBlock Is Nothing Or oSheet.DrawingViews.count=0 Then Exit Sub
oTitleBlock=oSheet.TitleBlock
oTextBoxes=oTitleBlock.Definition.Sketch.TextBoxes
[code]....

AutoCAD 2013 :: Import Title Block From Inventor

Mar 12, 2013

I use Inventor 2013 regularly and only sometimes require the use of AutoCAD, mainly for 2D electrical layout drawings.

I have saved my drawing .idw template file from Inventor to a .dwg

Inserted it into AutoCAD .dwg

Saved as an AutoCAD .dwt

now the only issue that I have, is the image that I had embedded into the inventor drawing template, shows up as an icon instead of my compnay logo:

Is AutoCAD capable of showing images in a title block and hwo would I go about deleting the current icon image and replace it with the logo?

I tried deleting the current image in block editor but it won't let me select it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Choose View To Populate Title Block?

Jun 20, 2013

Long short, we have dozens of drawings and the original base view was deleted, so the title block uses the next view placed to populate.  We would like to drop in a new view, and use that as the view the title block looks to.  The only way we've figured how to do this is to delete the other 8 or so views (that are already all detailed)., place the view we want to populate the title block, then redraw all the views we just deleted.

Is there an easier way to chose a new base/primary view for a drawing?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Title Block With Scale Field?

Jul 6, 2011

One of the guys here has created a title block which has a scale field in it, this field reads the scale at which the title block is brought in, by use of an invisible attribute (he used the block in model space so that's why I scale them up). When he xref the dwg into my main drawing all is fine and the scales are as they should be but when he prints, the scales all show 1:1 on the print and in the main drawing. Could this be due to the fact that the xref is brought in at 1:1? But we can't see why this would change it as the block is obviously still at e.g. 1:50 in the xref.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Retaining Title Block Prompted Entries When Changing Title Blocks

Apr 26, 2013

The title blocks that we use have prompted entries in them and I would like to find a way using iLogic to copy the entries from one title block to another within the same drawing; i.e.. if the user decides to change from an A2 to A1 drawing.

I already have an iLogic rule which allows the user to change the active border, title block and sheet size based on a form selection but would like it to capture the prompted entries already entered and re-use them after the change.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Drawing Scale As Defined Attribute In Title Block

Mar 13, 2012

Is it possible to create a 'drawing scale' defined attribute inside my title block when brought into paper space?  I tried setting it up using 'plotscale' fieldname with various formats and it keeps coming in as 1" = 1' or 1:1 rather than 1" = 20' because that's what my plot scale is inside paper space but my drawing scale is 20 scale.  If I bring the title block in model space, it adjusts, but I don't plot from model space.  Surely there's a way to make this automated inside paper space.

Also, I just setup a 'Date' attribute inside my title block today.  What's the difference between Date, Saved Date and Plot Date?  Will 'Date' update if its in a drawing and opened up a month from now and saved or do i need to take 'Date' out and replace with 'Saved Date' or Plot Date'?.

Revit :: View Title Half Scale

Jan 23, 2012

I have a view title where I want to show Full scale and half scale on the same view title. Please see attached .rfa file.
 
Is there a way to have a label return a half size automatically in an effort to have only one view title. Otherwise our current work around is to make each view title for each scale and create a viewport for each scale in our template. I have heard that the labels are hardcoded and cannot be changed.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Automated Scale Bar - Title Block Text To Reflect Plotting At Half Size

Sep 27, 2013

Any way to get a scale bar/title block text to reflect plotting at half size?

We use the common (24x36) sheet size for all projects, but when plotting we send out half size (12x18) as well.  This means the scale bar reading 1"=40' is no longer correct. It should read 1"=20'.  I would like to automate this.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Using Point Elevations As Scale Parameter On Block During Import

Oct 25, 2013

I am trying to have a block scaled on import baised on the elevation of the point.  I already use description key sets to scale blocks in import to parameters added to the code libary, for example; "Pole 0.31" draws a circle with a diameter of .31 meters.  

Is there a way where I would be able to scale a block on import based on the elevation of the object?  For example, a point's elevation is 1.7m, so on import it would scale a block by 1.7 on the x/y axis.  Ideally if I were to modify the datum of the points the blocks would automatically scale, but that is more of a pipe dream.  

We import the data from a trimble r8 rover and convert the file to a FBK file before importing the survey data.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Title Block C#

Oct 2, 2013

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);
