AutoCAD Architecture :: Room Data Table And Room Tags Not Showing Up Going From 2013 To 2012

Jan 16, 2013

I am editing an old file set up by another firm that is used by our clients to keep track of room sizes etc, which has a room data table and room tags tied to area polylines. It has worked just fine on our 2013 Acad Architecture, but when I sent them (saved down to 2010) back to our client, using 2012 Acad Architecture, the tags disappear and the table is unpopulated.It seems like it must have something to do with the file originally being created way back when, along with some quirk between 2012 and 2013.

Revit :: Why Room Tool Doesn't Recognize A Simple Room Delimited By Walls

Aug 30, 2012

I have a project in wich rooms functionality is compromised. I don't know why the room tool doesn't recognise a simple room delimited by walls whose property divides rooms is set to yes. If I place a rectangle of rooms delimiters the room tool works properly instead. If I start a new project the tool works properly.

AutoCAD LT :: Architectural Blocks And Symbols

Jul 25, 2012

I've just started working for an architect and downloaded AutoCad LT 2013 today...is there some sort of menu where I can get basic door, window, etc. blocks?  Or are these things I need to create myself?...I see the "tool palettes" box but it seems to have a random selection of stuff labeled "Imperial Samples"  leading me to believe there might be other stuff elsewhere.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Make Architectural Dimension

Jan 9, 2014

I am working in inches so I set my dimension units to Architectural. When I am dimensioning a distance that is twelve inches I would like the dimension to read 12" not 1'. I would like to set up the dimension style to report this dimension automatically without editing the text manually to change 1' to 12". Is there a way to set this up through the dimension style?

AutoCad 2D :: Architectural Ticks Display Very Large?

Oct 16, 2012

I received a drawing from a client where the architectural ticks display very large. The leader arrow shows as the correct size but the dimension tick does not. I went into the dimension style manager (dimstyle) and everything seems to be in order. The tick size is set up to be 1/16". I tried to dredge up out of my memory the autocad variables that mess with the size of the archtectural ticks like "dimasz" and "dimblk", but with no luck.

Currently using Autocad 2013.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Drawing Units Stuck On Architectural

Feb 22, 2012

I have an old dwg that I used to add new data to. I also inserted a block produced by Revit to get a building elevation. I am not sure when or how it happend, but my drawing scale units are stuck on arch. I am talking about the bottom right hand corner of the screen on the status bar where there is the spot to set drawing scale. When I open by clikcing the arrow all the scales are in architectural units. I can add a custom scale of 1"=100', but it does not otherwise appear in the list. I wasn't going to wrry about it, but when I layout a plan/pro series they do not seem to be scaling correctly (and I cannot find a place to specify what scale I want the views to be at). UNITS, -DWGUNITS & -AECDWGUNITS don't fix it, they are all set to decimal, etc. Using the seetings tab to change the drawing settings, everything is set to feet, there is no place to specify arch units, the 100 scale drawing is shown as a custom scale.

This is C3D release 2012, on a 64bit Win7 Pro machine, everything is up to date.

Where I can change the units for the drawing scale?

AutoCad :: How To Add Dimensions To Architectural Drawing In Model Space

Feb 22, 2007

I have to add dimensions to an architectural drawing in model space

The file is drawn in decimal units (1unit=1meter)

Now I have been asked to ad dimensions in feet and inches to the drawing in order to make it usable to UK

I know that the solution is to use alternate units with Architectural units format, but how mach is the multiplier that I have to use?

I have no experience in British metric system.

So I left the multiplier 25.4 as AutoCAD prompt.

2.81 meters equals to 5'-11 1/4” ?

I’m using AutoCAD 2007

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 - Leading Zeros In Architectural Units

Jun 10, 2012

I can get the leading zeros in the architectural dim style.  My problem is I cant seem to get the leading zero in the parts list format.  If I edit the parts list, then format column, there is no option to include leading zeros like in the dim styles.

We could format the parts list with the leading zero before....This is in 2013, BTW..

AutoCAD Architecture :: Controlling The Angle Of Architectural Ticks When Dimensioning?

Jul 19, 2012

just got my boss to agree today to use cad's dimensions instead of the way he's always done it... which is dimensioning everything (everything!) by hand.  Clearly that's just nonsense.  But what is important is that I make sure these new autocad dimensions look exactly like the ones we do by hand.

I think I've pretty much got the basics down, I just have one major problem: tick orientation.  When doing horizontal dimensions, the ticks run from bottom left to upper right.  When doing vertical dimensions, they flip.  This would drive my boss nuts... to the extent that I doubt I could get him to buy into this if I can't figure out how to keep the ticks running in the same direction. 

I understand I could just dimension with no ticks whatsoever, and then just go copy them in by hand, but that reeks of the old, laborious way of dimensioning... and it really seems like there should be an easy answer to always keeping the ticks running the same way.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Dimension Architectural Tick Marks Are Not Solid

May 9, 2011

I have a file that the architectural tick marks are not solid.  They are an outline of a rectangle.

fillmode =1

shademode = 2dwireframe

options/display = solid fill is checked.

I am on ACA2011.  It does not matter if I am in model or a viewport.  It is the same.

I have another file open and that dim ticks are filled.

I have imported the dim string into the one that does not work and still nothing.

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2012 - Dimension Arrow Scale For Architectural Ticks

Apr 13, 2011

I have recently started using Architect 2012. We use Architectural Tick for dimensioning.

The problem is the Architectural Tick arrow is not coming in at the proper scale (Arrow head size = 3/32", dimscale varies). The arrow head seems to be out by a scale factor of 25.4 (found by trial and error).

If so is there a software patch or workaround. Can the Architectural Tick block be edited and if so where is it?

(using Windows 7 - 64bit)

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Architectural Detail - Move And Stretch Actions?

Jul 31, 2012

I'm trying combine a Move and Stretch Action such that the same handle MOVES the detail UP/DOWN and STRETCHes the detail RIGHT/LEFT while maintaining the base of the detail line at the reference line. Sounds confusing maybe but this is the most intuitive and elegant way to design it. However, I can't get it to work.

The attached detail achieves the same functionality but is a little clunky.

AutoCAD LT :: Can't Copy / Paste Between Drawings/ Incomprehensible Heavy Drawings

Dec 28, 2012

I'm using ACAD LT 2008.

When i try to copy paste some drawing entities from a heavy drawing file to any other file, the program blocks and says 'not responding', endlessly. So i always have to shutdown the program. I experience the same problem using the designcenter: when I try to copy a layout into another drawing, my computer gets stuck.

Another annoying problem with these files is that they are so heavy, while in fact they shouldn't be. I tried the aectoacad file command. In result the file id half as big, but after I open it and save it, again is the original size.

AutoCAD LT :: Publish Drawings To Overwrite Existing PDF Drawings

Apr 2, 2013

Every now and then I go back and try to use publish to speed up printing but I always go back to plotting one by one.

I work in a housing construction office and I have 10 separate drawings side by side in model space for house plans that I need plot separate to give to certain people. My problem isn't that I can't publish them separately its that I can't save them over existing pdf's individually predetermined. 

Q1. do i just have to go through and change every layout name before or after i publish?

Q2. how do i change the output publish location?

Q3. can each layout be saved to a different existing pdf and remember it?

Q3. can i save these setting across to a new drawing?

CorelDRAW X5 :: Crashes On Import Of PDF With Architectural Hatches?

Nov 11, 2011

I'm having some difficulty importing a pdf of a simple architectural drawing with 2 hatches.  No problem with other pdfs made with my pdf995 or with the same original drawing to pdf minus the hatches.  They are really simple small hatches and small files - 11x17 with minimal detail.  The original architectural drawings are made in Turbocad then to pdf.  I don't have an alternative way to check this out with another cad software.

Drawx5 crashes just after the dialog box for text options, then I click OK for font substitutions and it 'stops working'.  All the same procedure works OK if I remove the hatches before making the pdf.

System is Win7Pro 64 bit, 8gb ram, 4 cores, 1gb video memory.
