AutoCAD LT :: Rotated Dimension Offset From Viewport

Feb 6, 2012

I have a set of Rotated Dimensions in paperspace that are graphically offset from their associated points.  I have not made any changes to the viewport, model or dimensions for this layout since the last time they displayed properly.  In other words I found them like this when I opened the drawing this morning.

See attached image.

Command: list
1 found

DIMENSION Layer: "A-ANNO-DIMS"
Space: Paper space
Layout: ramp layout
Handle = a433
associative: yes
type: horizontal

AutoCad :: Model Rotated On Inserting Viewport

Mar 19, 2012

I have a problem with a drawing when inserting a viewport. The drawing is from a client and on the model space the building appears to be in straight and looks correct. However when I go over to Pspace and insert a viewport the model is shown to be rotated at a crazy angle. How I can draw the viewport or change the setting so that it shows exactly how it is in model space.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Active Viewport Boundary Highlight Is Offset?

Jan 2, 2013

I've been putting up with this problem for a while. I have a certified 3D device with a driver version that is certified (Quadro 4000) but the active viewport boundary highlight is out of place. The white lines in this image are my viewport boundary highlight which is out of position.  This only seems to happen when I turn off the viewport layer. If the viewport layer is on the highlight appears as expected.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimension Offset - Text Outside Of Extension Lines

Jul 31, 2013

When placing a dimension with the text outside of the extension lines, it defaults to placing the text either above right or below left of the arrows. If you try to grip/drag the text to another location (i.e. below right or above left) it won't allow it. I don't know if it is following some standard, but in the example shown, I had to explode the dimension to position the text in the preferred location.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimension Update To Viewport Scale Factor

Mar 5, 2013

When some off our users move the dimensions in paperspace or the drawing in modelspace,

only some off the dimensions would see the viewports scale factor, and multiply itself by that, from my knowledge this happens when you uses the power dimensioning in Mechanical, and the the annotative tick box is selected,  but for some reason one particular user he uses normal annotations when dimensioning, where there is no annotative functionally but the dimension still behave as mentioned.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create Viewport Of Solid In Layout And Dimension Inside And Outside Diameters

Aug 8, 2012

Having trouble with diameter and radial dimensions since upgrading to 2013.

For example, draw two concentric circles and Presspull (or Extrude and Subtract) so that you get a hollow cylinder.  Then create a viewport of this solid in a layout, and try to dimension the inside and outside diameters.

One of the two dimensions will work properly (seems to vary which one).  The other will magically "jump" when placed (ex. the OD dimension will jump and become the ID, or vice versa).

How to resolve this?  Our guys are having to do absurd things like redrawing the circle in paper space and dimensioning to it with a scale factor.  Is this some sort of 2013 bug, or a setting?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Offset Lisp Routine To Offset Selected Line?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Station-offset Label Style That Will Drop Trailing Zeros In Offset?

May 14, 2012

I am trying to create a station-offset label style that will drop the trailing zeros in the offset section - e.g. 15' instead of 15.00', but if the offset is not at a whole number, e.g. 15.01, etc.  it will display the entire offset.

I created two expressions:  IF(OFFSET-TRUNC(OFFSET)=0,.1/12,.00000001/12)

and this one:  IF(OFFSET-TRUNC(OFFSET)!=0,.1/12,.00000001/12)

I then created two offset components, one called truncated, and one called full, and assigned the heights to match the expressions. 

I have attached the file, the style is ACHD-Sta Off-Rt [copy]

AutoCad :: Newly Created Viewport Blanks Out Another Viewport

Jan 23, 2013

Problem: When I create a new viewport, another viewport's paperspace blanks out or disappears. When I copy a viewport over, the new VP doesn't show anything and you can't maximize/"enter" its paperspace; it's like a simple rectangle, but the properties box says it is indeed a viewport.

Ex. Viewport 1 shows the top view of an object, Viewport 2 shows the right side view... as soon as I add Viewport 3, the top view in VP 1 blacks out. I attempt to ReDraw, Regenerate, etc, but it doesn't re-appear. I've run Plot Preview to see if maybe it's just a fluke with the graphics card on my screen, but alas, even in plot preview the viewport is blanked out.

It almost seems like there is a limited number of viewports I can use.

Solution: Run the MaxActVP command and set the value to a number greater than the number of VPs you actually need. This particular file had that value set at 2; hence, why a new, third VP blanked out the first one.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Editing In Viewport That Is Over A Viewport?

Jul 12, 2012

I have a drawing with a viewport that fits to the page. And I created another smaller viewport over top that just shows the legend. Now when I try to double click inside the smaller viewport it always goes into the larger one. I have tried bringing the smaller one to the front but that didn't work. I know that I can clip the larger viewport around the smaller one or bring the legend right into paperspace or slid the smaller one off to the side work in it and slide it back. This is more out of curiosity of how to get into the smaller viewport.

AutoCAD .NET :: Cannot Get Frozen In Viewport Status For 1st Viewport Of Several

Jul 1, 2011

I did a test drawing with 4 viewports in paperspace.I frozen a layer in each viewport (as a viewport override, not global), and wrote code to gather info on layer overrides in viewports.The function takes in a database, and is generally used on drawings only open in memory:

public static bool GetLayerInfoFromDB2(Database db) { //do viewports on layoutstry {using (Transaction tr = db. Transaction Manager. Start Transaction()) { ObjectId ldid = db.LayoutDictionaryId;DBDictionary ld = (DBDictionary)tr.GetObject(ldid,
[code]....

 the odd thing is it never finds the frozen viewports on the first viewport.  It catches the others fine.I cannot see anything odd either, the counts of viewports and layers are all correct, and the drawing has no problems.Is there something that must be done to initialize the mechanism that reads viewport overrides?

AutoCad 2D :: Get Dimension Text That Pull Out To Side Closer To Actual Dimension Marks?

Jun 2, 2011

I'm trying to get the dimension text that I pull out to the side closer to the actual dimension marks. The 2 1/2" and 2" shown have a minimum distance they can get toward their dimensions. I would like it to be about half of what it is, but so far I haven't been able to find the property that changes that.

AutoCad 2D :: Override Dimension With Formula / Function That Relates To The Length Of Dimension

Feb 10, 2012

Is it possible to override a dimension with some sort of formula or function that relates to the length of the dimension?

A simple linear scaling might be possible by inventing a new unit with the appropriate conversion ratio, but that wouldn't work. What I need for the dimension to display a length 400 less than the actual length.
