AutoCAD 2010 :: Inserting Table Styles From Design Center
Mar 23, 2012I have a drawing with 3 table styles I've saved that I can usually insert into my drawings using design center when I need them. Normally all three come in fine, occasionally only two will come in. I have a drawing that I am trying to insert my table styles into and none of them are inserting! I don't know if there's a setting preventing this command or what.

Feb 5, 2011Can I take a block that is currently in my drawing and put it into a tool palette? I know how to move blocks from the Design Center to a Tool Palette but I don't know how to get my blocks into the Design Center.
Scenario: We use a number of different fasteners in our drawings but they aren't the fasteners that are currently in the Design Center under "fasteners". I am manually redrawing the same fasteners each time I start a new drawing.

Aug 9, 2011inserting a Tiff image into a dwg file with Raster Design 2011. I have a image scanned at 400dpi and the image is a good quality image, some of the text is small be legible. When I insert the image with the imageattch command the image seems to gain pixels therefore causing some text to become unreadable. I've used the bitonal filter but then I lose some resolution. Is it normal for the TIFF image to appear more dense when brought into an Autocad drawing? If so is there a way to adjust the image to look more like the scan?

AutoCAD .NET :: Inserting Blocks With Value For Y Is 0 From CSV File
Jul 23, 2013I am trying to insert some blocks that i read from CSV file. I am reading the values for X and Y position from a CSV file and inseting blocks with this values in AutoCAD.
Here is my
[CommandMethod("BI_5")] public void BlockInsert_5() { String filePath="C:\Users\Dimitar\Desktop\imp.csv"; CsvDoc csv = new CsvDoc(filePath, true); for (int i = 0; i < csv.Data.Count; i++) { string blockQualifiedFileName = csv.Get<string>(i, "Block Path"); double scale = 3.0; Vector3d DispacementVector = new Vector3d(Double.Parse(csv.Get<string>(i, "PosX")), Double.Parse(csv.Get<string>(i, "PosY")), 0); // Database tmpDb = new Database(false, true); tmpDb.ReadDwgFile(blockQualifiedFileName, System.IO.FileShare.Read, true, ""); Matrix3d Transform = ed.CurrentUserCoordinateSystem; Transform = Transform * Matrix3d.Scaling(scale, Point3d.Origin) * Matrix3d.Displacement(DispacementVector / scale); db.Insert(Transform, tmpDb, true); } }
One of the values for Y is 0. And the block instead of showing on X,0 it shows at some X,Y value. If you need to see the csv file I can upload it.
AutoCad :: Blocks Inserting Improperly
Nov 4, 2011I just created a dynamic block for our rev clouds, cause they're annoying to draw.
For some reason when I insert it, it is automatically inserting at 0,0. Why is it doing that? Also, if I put it into a Tool Palette (my boss just discovered these, so I'm creating a whole bunch for the company... those things are AWESOME) and when I use the Tool Palette, it works just fine.
Now, this won't be a problem as long as everyone uses the TP's I'm creating, but we have one Engineer in particular that's a toolbag and doesn't seem to remember to use all the stuff I spend all this time researching and programming.
AutoCad :: Script Using Design Center?
Aug 29, 2012I have never written a script but I figure this task is a good place to start. We currently have almost 8,000 files that all use different dimension styles, leader styles, layers and layouts. (All before I got here) I have successfully used the design center to where we can open an old drawing then go through and add all of the new 'standard styles, layouts, and layers'
can I write a script that will add all of these at once. It is not that it is that terrible of a job to do, but like I said my thought is it will be a good way to learn more about scripts, and we have a lot of drawings this needs to happen with.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Content Center Multidrop Items Inserting Table Alteration
Nov 11, 2013I insert Content Center part, for example I have a hexagon bolt. For example I chose the hole diameter but did not take the surface. In this case Inventor pop up the table with possible list of fit bolts.

For some items it is too big, I wish I can choose only required columns for custom items.

AutoCAD .NET :: Creating Blocks But Not Inserting Correctly
Mar 22, 2013I use the following code to create blocks in AutoCAD 2013. When the user goes to insert this block, the insert command does not show a preview of the block when moving the mouse to locate it, and it comes in exploded. This was working at one point, but something changed. Is there some setting in AutoCAD or through the API that would cause this behavior?

Database db = doc.Database;

Jul 10, 2012Is there a way to insert CAD blocks into the Multiline text editor, much like you are able to insert a block into a Table.
I am asking for the sole purpose of Plan Notes. When we lay out Plan Notes originally we place the note bubble next to the line of text it represents. When we have to come back at a later time and edit the mtext, sometimes add a line our users are in a rush and forget to re-align the note bubbles with the text. If there was a way to insert the block into the text editor and have it still be able to edit it.
Is this a feature in 2013?

AutoCad :: 2012 Inserting Blocks With Attributes Enquiry
Aug 7, 2013I believe in our previous AutoCAD 2009 software we could create a block with attributes and save the drawing as a block, either wblock or create block. When inserting this block into another drawing we would get the attribute dialog box appear and complete the required information. Within AutoCAD 2012 we have made a block with attributes, when we insert this drawing into another drawing the block is inserted but no attribute dialog box. If I click on the block I see edit block definition dialog box with the drawing file name of the block and the block name. If I explode the block I then have my block and when clicking the block the attribute dialog box appears. It seems that in AutoCAD 2012 when we create the block and save the drawing and then insert the drawing it becomes a nested block type. Is there a setting I need to switch to prevent this and have the block insert and then click on it to change the attributes as required?

Jun 26, 2012Last week we upgraded to ACA 2013 from ACA 2012.
I am now having issues any time I try to insert a Block into any drawing - I get a Fatal Error.
I have uninstalled & reinstalled this afternoon but I am still having the same issue.
It happens when I am trying to insert blocks from both the Design Centre & also from Tool palettes.
Other users in my office do not have this problem, the only difference between my set-up & theirs is that I have installed the 'AEC Section Display & Tag Scale Hotfix' but I have tried uninstalling this but had the same results.

AutoCad :: Inserting Blocks - Command Line Says Invalid
Mar 5, 2012I am trying to insert blocks but in the command line it says invalid, if I copy & paste the block in it works fine but as soon as i try to use the insert command it will not work.
Probably useful to tell you that I have around 60 blocks each saved as a DWG file and all of them are saved in 1 folder so there is no other crap in there.
the thing that really baffles me though is the fact that after I have pasted the block in to the drawing, the insert command works for that block.
AutoCad :: Inserting Downloaded Blocks At Correct Scale

The block is dimensioned but when I insert it and measure its dimensions, the readings are different. For example, a dimension reads 1070mm but when I measure it, I get 1023mm. Not far out but when I measure a 150mm dimension, I get 83mm. A 460mm dimension is measured as 536mm.
