AutoCAD LT :: Hatch And Inherit Properties

Apr 11, 2012

I am having two problems with hatching. 

1) I do not have as many hatch patterns available to me in the "Other Predefined" tab as my colleagues do on their computers.  I also do not have custom hatch patterns listed.

2) The "Inherit Properties" button doesn't work on my computer so I cannot even match the hatch pattern if I copy a drawing in from another file.

This problem is making it difficult for me to finish my work in a timely manner as I have to run to someone else's computer when I need to hatch something.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Match Properties On Hatch?

Nov 30, 2012

When doing a match properties from one hatch to another, I end up with two hatches having identical properties (pattern, scale, etc) but that look completely different. See the attached image.

I tried the old snapbase trick and also tried various hatch origin settings, but without success.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Background Hatch Color Properties?

Dec 5, 2012

Background Hatch Color Properties? When using a background color in a hatch pattern... is it possible to set transparancy and/or screening options when using an *.stb file?

If I were using a *.ctb file it would be obvious, but I'm doing contract work for a client and am using their *.stb file, and I don't have the option of adding another option to their *.stb file.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Skip Layer When Inheriting Properties In Hatch?

Nov 25, 2013

I like to use inherit properties a lot when hatching. Now it also grabs the layer and I prefer that to be bylayer always, like before when this (imo useless) option was not implemented. Does any trick to get rid of this feature I don't want.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Hatch Set Origin Button Properties Have Changed

Jan 16, 2013

Typically when I click on the Set Origin button, all I then have to do is click on the page where I want the hatch origin to be, and everything works just fine.

I work on a shared computer.  Start working this morning, and now when I click on the Set Origin button, it prompts me to inform it "SIngle or SUbobject?".  And through a number of further selections, I can eventually get around to selecting my origin and having things shift around properly.  But that really slows me up.  Seems like one of the system variables got changed.  I've doodled around a bit online, but haven't been able to find how to get things back to how they used to be.

And I tried opening a new page, restarting the program, etc., and the new way the button works has taken hold.  I can't get it to reset. So on my computer (not working properly) when you click on the Set Origin button, the command line says "Command: _-hatchedit select hatch objects..select hatch objects: _S"  then it says "ambiguous response, please clarify" "SIngle or SUbobject?"

On the computers that are working properly it only displays the "select hatch objects: _O"  and doesn't show the _S part.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 3D Mirror Does Not Inherit Part Changes

Jul 6, 2012

i am using Autodesk Inventor 2012 to design a pipeline structure. I have a problem when mirroring a 3D sketch with applyed frames. the problem is that if after the mirror operation i edit the original sketch, the modifications are not inherited by the mirrored part of the structure. in particular when i mirror a 3D assembly and edit the original assembly the modifications are made also in the mirrored part but the program does it in a wrong way as long as the constraints are not satisfied and the position of the parts are not the same as the original assembly.

How to mirror an object and preserving the link between the original and the copy in order to make modifications to all the parts mirrored in an easy way?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Insert Block To Inherit Current Layer?

Jan 12, 2010

There are certain occasions where I would like to insert a block to inherit the current layer in an active AutoCAD drawing. This happens frequently when a client requires a certain layering standard and I have a block from another drawing with different layering standards. To correct this it usually involves several steps - Explode and change the layer, setbylayer, bedit, etc,

Is there a command to where I can directly insert a block and its layers change to the current layer of the active AutoCAD drawing?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Make Section View Inherit A Break Out

Oct 6, 2013

I have a view of an assembly where I used a break out to break through a part. I want to make a section of this, and have that view respect that the part was broken and show it as broken in the new view.

The section view shows the full part 100% unbroken. In the edit view, the only option for cut inheritance is "break". All others are greyed out.

Why I want to do this: I am unable to break it in the section view because there is no option to break through a single part a specified distance. I cannot break an area "from point" or "to sketch" because they don't let you choose a single part for the effect, and the parts completely included in the break out this way are not going to show up in the parts list, so you cannot adjust their section participation, therefore I also cannot just break an area and then choose what parts don't get the effect.

AutoCad :: How To Apply Hatch Patterns To Other Objects By Apply Properties

Jul 28, 2012

I have a hatch pattern in one of my objects. I want to apply exactly the same hatch pattern to other objects but I don't remember the settings for original hatch.

There is a command in ACAD to apply properties of one object to others (brush icon in toolbar). I tries to use this command but it seams that it doesn't work for hatch.

What is easiest way to apply a hatch pattern from an object to the other one?

I am trying to entmake a hatch entity from a hatch template.

After entget the template hatch entity, i get the followings

Select object: ((-1 . <Entity name: 7ed11b78>) (0 . "HATCH") (330 . <Entity

[code]....

Now I  wrote the following code using the above data as follows

(entmake (list (cons 0 "HATCH") (cons 67 0) (cons 410 "Model") (cons 8 "SECTION-LABEL") (cons 62 255) (cons 10 (list 0.0 0.0 0.0)) (cons 210 (list 0.0 0.0 1.0)) (cons 2 "SOLID") (cons 70 1) (cons 71 0) (cons 91 1) (cons 92 1) (cons 93 8) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt1) (cons 11 pt2) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt2) (cons 11 pt3) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt3) (cons 11 pt4) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt4) (cons 11 pt5) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt5) (cons 11 pt6) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt6) (cons 11 pt7) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt7) (cons 11 pt8) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt8) (cons 11 pt1) (cons 97 0) (cons 75 0) (cons 76 1) (cons 98 1) (cons 10 (list 0.0 0.0 0.0)) (cons 450 0) (cons 451 0) (cons 460 0.0) (cons 461 0.0) (cons 452 1) (cons 462 1.0) (cons 453 2) (cons 463 0.0) (cons 63 5) (cons 421 255) (cons 463 1.0) (cons 63 7) (cons 470 "LINEAR")))

The point variables pt1, pt2....pt8 are all defined. But when I run the code the hatch is not being created? Why?

AutoCad :: Change Hatch From ANSI31 To GRAVEL Some Of Hatch Shows Outside Boundary

Aug 24, 2011

I have a hatch (ANSI31) enclosed by a closed polyline. Whenever I change the hatch from ANSI31 to GRAVEL some of the hatch shows up outside the boundary. The Polyline consists of both arcs and line segments, and the hatching errors are occurring within the radius of the arc segments. Changing it from Associative to Non Associative makes no change.

I am using AutoCAD 2011.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Missing Hatch Patterns In Hatch Library?

Just downloaded Autocad 2013 and am missing quite a few of the standard hatches (siding, soldier, board and batten, etc.) What should I do to get them back.  When I open old drawings with these hatches in them, they load just fine...but I am unable to hatch any new areas with these hatches (because they are not listed in the hatch library)

AutoCAD .NET :: Block Reference Hatch - Deleting Loops Within A Hatch

Feb 22, 2013

I want to be able to add a Block Reference to a hatch. I'm adding the block reference to an ObjectIdCollection and the hatch is not taking it when using AddLoop().

So I thought maybe I needed to add the location of the polyline (curve-like) object that is member of the blockreference to the hatch, but I don't know how to get its ObjectId.
 
Hatch thisHatch = new Hatch();thisHatch.Layer = layerName;thisHatch.SetDatabaseDefaults();thisHatch.SetHatchPattern(patternType, patterName);thisHatch.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByColor, colorIndex);thisHatch.Transparency = new Transparency((Byte)(255 * (100 - 60) / 100));tSpace.AppendEntity(thisHatch);transaction.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(thisHatch, [code]........

Also, I'm trying to delete certain HatchLoop that is associated to a polyline but I don't know how to do it. I'm going through the loops in the hatch but I don't know what to do there. I wanna do this so I create a new and different hatch on top.

I think one could also copy all the loops except the one one wants to delete, but I'm not sure how to tell which one is the one I want to delete that is the one associated to a polyline or that is in certain region.

AutoCAD LT :: Hatch Button Does Not Activate Hatch Dialog Box

I have AUTOCAD LT 2012 - windows 7 - SP1

Neither the button for Hatching or the Draw Hatch menu do not activate the HATCH DIALOG BOX?

This means I cannot Hatch?

I have also added the Hotfix for the Ribbon and it made no difference.

AutoCad 2D :: Hatch Command To Match Existing Hatch

May 6, 2013

I've migrated from 2005 to 2014 LT and wondered if they have added to the hatch commands. I've looked and haven't found anything. Is there a command that you can pick a hatch pattern already shown on the drawing and make that pattern the existing one to use? I sometimes have multiple hatch patterns and scales, and wanted a quick way to go from one to another without lisp help.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Properties For AEC Objects Not Displaying In Properties Palette?

A user showed me today that she cannot see any properties for a wall, door, or other AEC object in the Properties palette.

Some options like height, width, etc. are shown, but not layer, style, etc. from the General portion of the Basic tab.

Is this going to be a reinstall scenario or is there a fix for this?

AutoCAD LT :: 2014 - Properties Box Does Not Display Properties Of Selected Object

Jun 6, 2013

I recently upgraded from LT2013 to LT2014. I never had any issues with 2013, but now seem to be battling with 2014. My OS is Windows 7 Home edition.

When selecting an object and then clicking the properties menu, the properties of the selected object are not displayed, but instead the properties of the selected layer are shown.

In the attached screenshot:

1) My active layer is "AM_VIEWS".

2) The layer of the object that is selected is "MEDIUM".

3) The properties dialog box shows the properties of my active layer and not the selected object.

I am therefore unable to override any settings of the selected object and manually change settings e.g. Linetype, Linetype scale etc.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copy Properties Vs Model Properties In Drawings?

I want to set up my drawings so that the title block displays properties from the model.  I want to set this up so there will be drawing properties to extract into Vault.  So I want to know what other Inventor and Vault users are doing to get model properties into Inventor drawings:  Using model properties in the title block and nothing to extract in Vault or Copy model properties so Vault has data to extract.

I want to know what the best in class practice is?  What are others doing?  I do not want to use iLogic I was out of the box Inventor functionality.
