I can't snap to a midpoint in a line. For example, If I draw a line 10" long, I can't draw a line from the center of that line. It used to give me an auto snap option to go to, but now it only allows me to snap to the ends of that line.
View 6 RepliesIm trying to dimension the midpoints of a series vertical beams thats perpendicular to the x axis. How to dimension the midpoint of one beam to the midpoint of another beam?
Normally i just select dimlinear and then ctl + right click "mid between 2 points", but this way just seems time consuming when you have a series of them to do, is there a better way to dimension a series of beams from one midpoint to another midpoint?
When I use a tool such as 'move'/'select base point' in the sketch environment, I used to be able to select line midpoints.
Is this no longer possible? My constraint options seem to be fine.

How to place the “midpoint” of window on the midpoint of wall?
In the screenshot below, I wanted to place the window from its midpoint to the midpoint of the wall. How this can be performed on Revit?
I can get the DWG translator Add-In with :

I have a dll which shows simple dialog, which in its constructor reads from a file located in the same folder as the dll, to populate some of the controls in the form, like combo boxes. The assembly works perfectly at local pc, but when I take release copy of the dll and the file at work, I cannot read from the file.
I am able to load the dll with the Netload, but when i start the command it shows - "Unable to find assembly 'Pressurized Pipes, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=null'. And when I click OK button shows second dialog saying "Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application. If you continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. Invalid Argument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelectedIndex'. Parameter name: SelectedIndex.
Details:
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

It seems to me that I am not able to Deserialize the file and read from the list in the file, which list I use to populate the combobox.
I am using just the name of the file to deserialize it, assuming that the dll will look in the folder where the dll is located.
I opened my Autocad today to discover that none of the drawings I open are displaying any type of text. This includes dimension text, multi/single line text, and titleblocks. My coworkers can open with text, so I am confident that it is a setting of some sort in my program. I have looked thropugh every menu and option and I have been unable to find the setting that would need to be changed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow would one add a sketch-point to a midpoint of an arc? For a SketchLine its easy...

However, I can't see how to do the same operation to find the midpoint of a SketchArc. The interface of course has a selection filter for this so I assume the API can do the same?
on my work pc i'm missing two features i used to have:
- Firstly, when i click a PL i can't see the midpoint of the line, and can't drag the line like i used to. I tried to change GRIPS, but can only choose between 0 and 1 when choosing grips. 0 being nothing visible, 1 being visible endpoints of the polylines. 2 is NOT valid options that i can choose.
- I can't add a new vertex. I think the way i used to do it was to hover over the midpoint and it would suggest if i wanted to add a new vertex. If this is the case, it's obvious that if i get problem 1 fixed, problem 2 will solve itself.

I need to define a mate constraint with a workplane as EntityOne and a midpoint from an Edge as EntityTwo.
API-Help tells me valid objects are planar faces, linear edges, vertices, cylindrical faces, conical faces, spherical faces, revolved faces, work planes, work axes, and work points.
The Edge object gives me StartVertex and StopVertex, but what about the midpoint?
I could not find Round Perforated Plate style / appearance on Autodesk Inventor 2013. Maybe it called "Perforated Metal 01 style" on previous Autodek Inventor version.
I just found Oblong Perforated Plate as attached.
Please see attached image (I have tried to attach the part file but file size is to large to upload). I have created a sheet metal part, then converted to a solid component to utilize the bend tool. The actual part will need to overlap at the ends and will be joined using spot welds. I would like to be able to illustrate the overlap in the inventor model if possible but how to achieve this.

You'd think that being able to copy and paste would be a fairly straightforward task in any piece of software. Not in AutoCAD 2013. The Help file says the commands are located on the 'Clipboard' panel, under the 'Home' tab. I've spent a lot of time searching and can't find them, nor can I find any information about how to turn such a panel on.
This is the sort of thing that shouldn't be a problem in a well-designed piece of software. We're finding AutoCAD 2013 to be almost unusable out of the box, and have to spend ages fiddling with the (clunky) Custom User Interface commands to make it work. Every time AutoDesk bring out a new version of AutoCAD it seems to get even worse. I could resort to keyboard commands, but shouldn't have to. I'm starting to think the best solution would be to invest in a copy of Vectorworks instead.
I'm electrical and have my own display set oddly enough named "electrical". When I set the display to "electrical" I can't osnap to endpoint or midpoint of smart walls in the background (nearest works fine). When I change the display to something else, generally it works.
Is there an "osnap" setting for displays?
