I am unable to adjust my Viewport sizes in anyway, (wont allow me to grab handles to adjust size & or move entire view port) after they are changed to the defposits layer, I cant change them back to any other layer because when I try to highlight them, it says "0 objects found". Wont even let me delete them, I don't think they are locked, as I am the creator of this drawing and have done no such thing.
View 6 RepliesIt goes f.e. like this:
I draw a line (no constrains) and I can move it by grabing an end or whole line by click&hold mouse button, great.
But after couple minutes of work with part and sketches I can't grab anything. Even on new created sketches and new lines. Click and drag just open rectangle selection. Oh, between these phases there is a phase when 2nd click&hold works...
When I open/create another part it is normall, but this one I must close and open again.
We use electircal elements in AutoCAD dwgs that have labels to indicate the status of the element by phase. For instance on a floor plan we might have elctrical outlets that are existing (E), new (N), demo (D), etc. How does one do this efficietnly in REVIT? Is there a way to assign a paramter to grab the phase of the object and then adjust a label accordingly? This would be ideal because over time the element s might move from one phase to another such as from new to existing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedNot sure as to why this is happening, but like the title says anytime I use move or grab a grip point my osmode automatically changes itself to settings that I do not want. I can change my osnap settings while in the command to set them back to what I had originally had but this is very tedious and I have not experienced this with previous versions of acad.
From all my searching, the only thing I can come up with is; it is a setting within the acad1014doc.lsp but I am not sure.
Working on a book cover but it seems that once something is down and saved - like my title - I can't just go back and tweak it with resizing and moving. How to simply rearrange the layout?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a viewport in a layout that shows a part of my model. I'm gonna create a number of layouts exactly like the first one, only having the viewports move their display a number of units along the x-axis. Is there a way to make this offset along the x-axis exact, or is the only way to enter each viewport and "manually" adjust the position?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 5 drawings that all have the same model (basically a topo map of a 2 mile radius) but each have unique info, i.e. monitoring well locations, utility info, etc. The client wants a zoomed in view of a 1 block radius and I need all 5 drawings to have an identical zoom. How do I adjust my viewports in each drawing so they are zoomed in to the exact same place?
I'm using AutoCAD 2007 for this.
I go to grab an axis and move it, and the cursor is offset. See the movie.cursor_offset.mov

I cannot figure this out as I have used a few different profiles from different machines and still have the same issue.

In paperspace i have a couple of viewports , all nicely set out at 1:5 scale. then i click in another viewport and bam, all the other viewports change scale (zoom out) and orientation. is there some system variable that i have overlooked?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a lot of sheet DWGs with a single layout in each. The layouts have several viewports into model space.
Is there a way to export out the layout tab where the viewport contents have been converted and placed into the layout space?
Ideally, I'm hoping to basically convert the viewport heavy paperspace into a dumb model space layout.
The code I'm using is supposed to go through all of the layouts and freeze the specified layer in the single viewport that is defined on that layout. It works for some viewports, but not for others. A "List" of the objects show the viewports are the same. I have a LiSP routine that gets me more info about selected objects. The first is a viewport that does not freeze the specified layer, the second does freeze the layer. Here is the code I'm using:
Public Sub FreezeNewLayerInVPs(ByVal pageNumber) Dim doc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocumentDim db As Database = doc.Database Dim layerToFreeze As String = "DETAIL_" & pageNumber Using tr As Transaction = db.TransactionManager. Start Transaction( )Dim layTable As LayerTable = DirectCast(tr.GetObject(db.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead),

I have a drawing (c3d 2013) provided by a subcontractor that contains high density laser scan data in the form of Acad solids. I have a bunch of conventional QC shots on the same objects, that I would like to compare to the scan data.
I can bring the QC shots into the scan drawing as cogo points, but when I try to measure the distance to the face of the solid, I can't get the perpendicular 3d osnap to grab the solid.
I was able to find/update a LISP program that returns the dynamic block to its original state, overriding the anonymous name and make the actual block name the effective name. I am in the process of manipulating the LISP program so I can select multiple blocks rather than one at a time.
(defun CYMEFFEC ()(vl-load-com) (setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object (car (entsel "Select blocks: ")))) (vlax-put obj 'Name (vlax-get obj 'Effectivename)))
I have this lisp that grabs all the text(the value and the location) in my drawings and I put them into a list. Here is what I have so far:
(defun c:loop ()
(setq numbers (ssget "_X" (list (cons 0 "TEXT") (cons 1 "##*")) ))
(setq newlist '())
(setq IN 0);set index
(setq SLGTH (sslength numbers))

What i need to happen is this: When "whatever" returns "value0" i need to set "value0" to the first item in list "newlist". Then when "whatever" returns "value1" i need to set "value1" to the second item. Now I can do it the long hand way, but i am trying to simplify this step, and shorten up my overall program.
I have a background with a pattern overlay effect on it. I need to send my web developer a block of this pattern in jpg format so that he can translate it into a repeating pattern in the background of the site.
It seems that there must be an easy way to do this that I'm not getting. All I can think to do is to select a part of it on the screen and copy, but since it's already set up as a seamless pattern, I don't know where its "edges" are.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen you purchase a template for a website, it often comes with the original photoshop document.
Is there a command in photoshop that takes what they've done and saves it all as the individual images that are usually included?
I have a template and I swapped out one image in the file, but I can't get it perfect by simply replacing the final image. I have the photoshop file with all the slices and whatever people do with templates, but I can't seem how to get it to save all the separate images again so I can grab the one that I need.
how can you adjust the "Grab Viewport" -Animation Quality for Nitrous?
Rendering any one of the styles in Animation produces horrific quality, because the viewport renderer does not spend the few extra seconds necessary to generate nice antialiased image-quality.
there is no way to adjust the rendertime. Because this would make this valuable improvement 50% useless again, if you can not use it decently for this purpose.
I downloaded a grab bar family that I thought looked very good. But then I tried to place it on the toilet stall portion (I also downloaded stall partition families). When I tried to place the grab bar, it wouldn't place -- I believe because the grab bar is WALL BASED.
So now the question is how do I go about placing a grab bar (or anything else) that is not wall based so that I can use it with the stall portion? I had tried to use face based but couldn't get that too work.

View 3 Replies View Relatedthere is a brush or something similar that allows you to grab a part of a picture and kinda drag it around. not cut and move it, actually distort it and such.
there is also maybe the same one that allows you just to click and sort of inflate/deflate part of the pic.
i KNOW one of you out there has to know what im talking about!!! it kinda stretches the part of the image so that you can make things look distorted or whatever. almost like if you grabbed your cheeks and pulled!
fix to the common errors caused by previous grab brushes surface proximity behavior along center axis. it was a small thing IMO but the solution created evena bigger issue.
now that is works mostly on some sort of volume proximity along x axis it becomes a big problem for moving around two discontinuous surfaces that are close to center axis.
that last version it was good was 2011. 2012 and onwards it seems to be ruined.
In cfx, i have a source clip which i want to grab just 1 frame of it. So what is the best way to do it in term of efficiency ?
If i'm in timeline editing outside cfx then i can use alt-E and drag the clip to have a 1 frame copy. It's cool but how to do the same thing inside cfx ? i want to do it inside cfx schematic. Actually I can use a timewarp node or mux or maybe there's some other node that can do the same function. But is it gonna affect the speed of the whole tree ?
i'm comparing the two scenarios :
1. i did 1 frame grab in the editing then bring it into cfx
2. i bring the full source clip inside cfx and apply timewarp to get 1 frame to work with.
Is there gonna be different in speed ? if only single clip , i won't see any different. What i want to know : what is happening internally ? does the second scenario will eat up more processing ? If yes, then we need to feature to extract 1 frame inside cfx (just like in editing).
As an addition, in media bin, when i'm in editing module (outside cfx) , i can ctrl-E (cursor change to red icon) to grab 1 frame . But when i go to cfx then it won't work. ctrl-E in media bin won't do anything. It will be great to have that feature in cfx.
I'm drawing a small map, and in several places there is text rotated so as to fit next to a slanted line. The problem comes when I decide to move the text, usually along a line parallel to itself, or perhaps in some other direction.
As far as I can tell, the only way to select the text is with the lasso tool, which can be very difficult, because of the close tolerances. Maybe the easiest way is simply to erase the text and re-create it. So, is there some way to rotate the selection box, so I can grab the slanted text easily?
Add keyboard shortcuts (or at least the option to define them) for all the layer commands. When I say, "all the layer commands", I mean a keyboard shortcut to do anything you can do with the mouse in the Layers window.
Specifically:
Move Layer Up / Down,
Toggle Layer Visibility,
Select Next / Previous Layer (or some set of commands to navigate layers.)
Select Next / Previous Visible Layer could be nice too.
This thread from 2006 asked for similar features, but no thread necromancy.
Implement these shortcuts. Having to grab the mouse to do simple layer operations feels awkward and breaks my flow.
