We need to modify the 2D drawings of our terminal..The drawings are in DWG format and and 2D plot plans and isometrics,...which version of autocad would be suitable for the mentioned working above?I was considering Auto Cad LT.
View 5 RepliesAny lisp routine on how to change "Drawing Properties" (fields via Mtext) on multiple single drawing files?
There are several instances where we would need to take a project to create another one and simply change the title block description.
As of now, we are opening each drawing (there could be hundreds) and modifiying the drawing properties on each drawing to change the customer name and other project descriptions.
These are not attributes, but fields. I've researched alot on here and couldnt find anything.
The drawing is attached.
I have several parts which I wish to modify, but, those modifications are only being done to get some prototypes made. I do not want the changed (non-approved part) to be used in current issue drawings, assemblies etc. until I have proven the modifications and am happy with them.
I can do this by doing a save as on the part and could just replace the previous design, but then I lose the history of changes/revisions shown in Vault which is critical to me and part of using vault in the first place.
A client wants to modify vector drawings automatically via database, preferably Microsoft Sharepoint Server running SQL. The modifications could be as simple as changing the color of a flag or overlay or as complicated as changing object dimensions and appearance.
I'm thinking SVG, but is there a more efficient method, something that can modify Illustrator files directly?
I have a terminal from Phoenix Contact(their p/n 3031429) it's a 2 level terminal - sttb4. When I associate two terminals (one on the top points, and one for the bottom points), it ends up putting the wrong terminal number on the top line. It does not matter what order i click as "master terminal" or not. And When I am dealing with a PLC, I use multiple 2-highs and it is a pain to constantly go in and manually force it to switch. I will always have one terminal with the wire number(based on rung number) and one based off from a PLC address. Is there a way when associating these terminals it will alway look at the PLC address as the top point?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow can I change the layer of a terminal of a components to that component layer without going through each terminal. That is , a block XX has terminals a and b. The XX is currently on layer A and the terminals a and b on layer B. How can I move the layer of a and b to layer A?
Also, I have a 10 page drawing in which I want to tie some components to a particular layer. How can I do this without going through each drawing and doing the changes?
We are installing photoshop on Win 2003 server running terminal services. We have about 15 students per server. I was wondering when setting the system performance on memory usage is the setting on a global scale or on per-user.
Sample: 4gigs ram adobe default setting is is about 50 to 55% of total ram leaving about 2 gigs left. Now how will photoshop handle the memory if 21 users were using the system at the same time. Would that 2 gig be divvied out to each user who ever is needing more at that time get more memory?
I am asking this because there is talk about setting the memory of PS lower to around 300 megs under each student profile. So that the student will not use more than allowed. Does photoshop recognize unique performance settings per user in terminal services? OR does PS see system performance settings as a global change, remember we have only one instance installed of PS and that is a server.
When I try to create new baluster in the family but it belongs to air terminal category. Is there any clashes? Any family category description. Such as what is the difference between Lighting fixture and Lighting device. In Autodesk library has few families which has same things with different category.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've set up GIMP 2.8.4 and it works great on my mac with Mountain lion.
However I need to run a batch script on a group of images and all tutorials for that take for granded that running gimp on a terminal window launches gimp. Well in my case it doesn't! And tbh I haven't found where I should point (the path to) the gimp command so that it would run.
So basicaly running Gimp on a terminal returns error no such command. And I need to know what path to add to my mac's PATH variable so that Gimp doesn't return an error. After that I would like to run the batch script from the terminal for the group of images I have.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
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?
I have a STP file of a seat that I just want to simply modify it's dimensions. Bring some aspects in closer, raise the back, and hollow out the middle. I can't seem to do anything and in searching online I only ended up with Inventor Fusion 2013 R1 that crashes each time, and Fusion 360 which has to be the worst user experience I have ever found in a piece of software.
(Side note I understand a little about solid models and surface models, but I just want something to work, otherwise inventor is a glorified model viewer.
I couldn't attach the file so here is the link to it. [URL]........
How do I interate through the vertices of a leader and update them.
I have tried
myObjRef.UpgradeOpen()
For i = 0 TomyObjRef.NumVertices - 1
Dim MyVertex AsNewGeometry.Point3d(myObjRef.VertexAt(i).X, _
myObjRef.VertexAt(i).Y, _
0.0)
myObjRef.SetVertexAt(i, MyVertex)
Next
I had expected properties like StartPoint LastVertex to be updated.
Working with LT2012 found that the 'Properties' drop down list can be slow to populate - filling up a line at a time.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have simple 3 column 4 row table I copied from another drawing and am tying to revise the text in the cells and can't. Text is entered into the cell but is on top of the existing text from the copied table. It also appears as though I can't delete the existing text either. I have checked the cell locking option and the cell is "unlocked" I thought this had something to do with the issue but apparently not.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a dimensioning problem. I have dimensions that I cannot modify as I normally do. I do not know what setting is stopping me but here is what it is doing. I add a dimension to a part. I then edit it to add 2X in front if it. It will then put it on top of the dimension. If I put it behind the text, it then goes beneath the dimension. There is no way to add text and it would actually appear on the same line as the dimension.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIt is possible to change a document style color with a VBA macro or why not with iLogic ?.
I regularly imports STEP and the parts have defined colors. Unfortunately for change must clear all colors of surfaces. By cons, if you edit the styles we see that for each color there is a style with the color name.
So basically if I change a color style, all parts using this style will change.
i made some 3d modelling in autocad 2014 in the 3d drawing mode but i have some difficulty in modifying the dimensions of the subobjects.
1 method that i already know is to use the scale gizmo which works but not much as i am not able to set the exact dimensions i need. it only scales the subobject according to the previous size.
modify and determine the exact dimensions of the sub-objects.
In the “Create & modify a deployment” I am not able to add in multiple Printer Configuration Search Paths or multiple Plot Style Table Search Paths. This feature is available inside of Autocad but not in the deployment. Why?
I would also like to include a profile in a deployment package. Is there a way to do that other than include it as a switch in a customized shortcut (which is a crappy way).
