AutoCAD LT :: Can't Load Some Xrefs In 2013

May 3, 2012

I can't load some xrefs in 2013 that I can with 2012.  Identical new machines within the last week.

I get an invalid message for some not all.  Is it the 2013 jinx?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Plotting Xrefs To PDF In B&W

Jan 28, 2013

We setup a company template to use STB. Not trying to debate if its the right move, we simply did it because the designers grasped the concept of Named Styles rather than color styles.

Here is our setup.

AutoCAD 13 on Windows 7 with Adobe PDF or DWG to PDF

We have an xref'ed drawing of a background. We xref it on Layer XXX_BKGRD with a color of yellow and a Plot Style of Background.

In our STB file we have style named Background set to plot Black. We have Plot object lineweights and plot with plot styles selected. The VP is set to Legacy Hidden.

When we do a plot preview, its all color. No change.

AutoCAD 2013 :: File With XRefs Too Slow?

Oct 16, 2012

When I work with a drawing that have several XRefs, it is too slow to open, save, or to do everything. I configured:

Is there any other way to improve the performance?

AutoCAD 2013 :: R13 Xrefs Not Inserting To World UCS?

Sep 17, 2013

I have 4 plans of the a building in separate files, all set to world ucs.  I xref in ground floor to the first floor, then move the first floorr so it aligns. I complete the same process for plant room and roof. Having saved all the files I then xref back the first floor into the ground floor using the insertion point as 0,0,0 but the plans do not align???!!! I do the same for the other plans, the plant room plan aligns with ground floor whilst the roof plan aligns with fist floor [but not ground].

I have tried reinserting numerous times but am missing something?  The files were supplied to us as dwg format but I do not know the full history.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Slow Drawings When Using Xrefs

Oct 21, 2013

I have recently installed Autocad 2014 and am experiencing very slow and jumpy files when using x-refs. The other machines in the office where I work are not experiencing the same problem and apparently my machine is more powerful.

Originally we thought this might be a network issue (as x-refs are being referenced through the network) but when I put the actual reference files on my computer, I experienced the same issue.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text Won't Show In Xrefs

Jun 21, 2012

if I put objects and text in the same layer, and then go to another .dwg file and then xref that file, the objects show but the text won't.

I've tried different layers and non and anotative text, but I can't get the text to show.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Linetypes Updating In Xrefs?

Sep 10, 2012

Using project navigator my drawings get xrefed from the constructs, through the views, and finally to the sheets tab.

I recently realized that I needed to fix / change my linetypes on 5 different drawings starting at the construct. When I had finally finished fixing the layer linetype / line LTscale / drawing LTscale to get it to look exactly the way that I wanted, I had to go through my views drawings, and the sheets drawings, detach the xrefs, re-attach them, and then modify the layers to the colours that I wanted.

Some people had the same problem about 10 years ago in this thread, and the poster at the bottom sums it all up nicely. This is not a VISRETAIN issue. I just want changes to my linetype changes to flow through all xrefs, just as if I had moved a line.

[URL]

I would like to see a setting added to CAD that would allow linetype changes to flow through, and a colour setting that would allow colour changes to flow through. Maybe VISRETAIN is too broad of a command, and needs to be broken down into linetypes, colours, LTScales. etc etc etc.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Reloading Xrefs After Updating Path

Jan 8, 2013

After some infrastructure changes, I need to repath all of my xrefs.  I know I can easily do this using the Reference Manager, and I have.  However, when I open the drawings that I have updated, the xref images (jpg, png, etc) do not display, but rather only show the image border.  I must then go into the External References pallette in each drawing and reload each reference.  This works fine, but it is awfully clunky, as I must do this for every drawing.

Is there a way I can batch reload these references after updating the path in Reference Manager?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Recover Files And Xrefs In 2013

Apr 15, 2013

I'm using Autocad 2013. My problem is when i use "recover files & xrefs", all the files recovered are saved as a 2013 dwg version. As we all save our files here as 2007 version so when others opened the files they are getting some of the xref files missing in the drawing. 

Is there any option to save files in a lower version when i recover?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Any Way To Turn Off Selecting Xrefs When Hatching?

Mar 13, 2013

I am accidentally selecting the xref when hatching and thought I remembered a setting or something to where you could make it where the xref couldn't be selected when hatching? I know the work around. Just unload the xref and then hatch, just thought their was a setting for this.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Use Overlay To Prevent Some Circular Xrefs

Sep 27, 2013

Trying to use overlay to prevent some circular xrefs. When the civil plan is xreffed as an overlay, the images and pdf's xreffed in the civil file show up in the file it is xreffed into. As an overlay, this should not happen? the problem is that that both the civil and piping drawing has the same pdf xreffed and it is doubled up. Does overlay not work for images and pdf's? is there something else?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Detach All Xrefs When Exiting A Base File Instead Of Unloading Them

Nov 15, 2013

We prefer to detach all xrefs when exiting a base file instead of unloading them.  Is there a way to have autocad remember which xrefs were used in the base file so that they can be reloaded all at once next time.

I swear that it worked before but I cannot replicate it.I cannot share the zipped file with anyone not connected to our network as all references are lost.

when I try to use the VIEWBASE command to create views from my 3D solids, I always get the message "inventor server failed to load" and the command stops. I am using AutoCAD 2014 with SP1 installed on windows 8 .

In a similar message in the 2010/2011/2012 discussion group: URL....

it is suggested to reinstall the software, but this is not working for me.I have already tried to 'repair', 'reinstall' and completely remove all the software and then reinstalling it, but nothing seems to fix this problem.

Are there any other programs I need to have installed to get this command to work?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Layer States Manager Will Not Load Linetypes

Jul 2, 2013

Why is it, when I restore a layer state to a blank drawing, it cannot load the linetypes saved to those layers? I get an error that says Linetypes not loaded and then wind up with a full set of layers all with CONTINUOUS linetype.

If I bring in a block from a toolpalette that has a new linetype and layer, it will create them for me just by inserting the block. Am I missing something??

AutoCAD 2013 :: Unable To Load FARO SCENE 5.0 FWS Files

Jun 13, 2012

I have a large scan project (Scene 5.0's new file structure) that contains a few registered workspaces (*.fws) and I would like to import at least one into AutoCAD 2013. I followed the workflow of going to Insert>Point Cloud>Create Point Cloud, and I selected the *.fws that I wanted to import (or rather have indexed into a *.PCG).

As soon as I hit 'Create' I get an error that says 'FAILURE! Fail to open scan file" and nothing happens. I can import *.fls, but they are not registered.

Does FARO not support AutoCAD 2013?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Use Toolbar To Load Toolbar From Partial Customization Menu

Dec 19, 2013

I've tried to figure out the pattern of how the command works for inputting partial customization menu toolbar names but I'm unsuccessful.

You should be able to show and hide partial customization menu toolbars with the -toolbar command because it can hide all toolbars including my partial customization menu toolbars currently shown. I've tried the toolbar menu alias (defined in the CUI command) and the name (refer to this link to the same image embedded below) and none work.

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Add Xrefs To Drawing

May 21, 2012

I am having an issue with adding xrefs to drawings.  The way I have this setup is the user inputs information and the number of sheets.  This then sets up a sheet set with the information and then for each value for the number of sheets the user gets a dialog askign for a number, name, and description for that sheet.

so if the user puts in 5 as the number of sheets, the user gets that dialog 5 times.

also I have a dialog that asks the user if they are adding xrefs to the sheets, if they answer yes then it adds the xrefs to each sheet that is created (this is where I have an issue).

This works perfect for the first sheet that is added, how ever after you fill in the information and submit for the second sheet autocad gives a fatal exception error and closes. not sure if I am missing on turning something off, closing, or stoping something before the next sheet is created.

here is the code I have at this point:

'checks to see if the dialog was yes
If xrefd.DialogResult = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then 'shows the dialog efd.ShowDialog() 'shows the dialog pfd.ShowDialog() 'runs for each value in total sheets
For i As Integer = 1 To info.TotalSheetNum.Value 'shows the dialog sheetinfo.ShowDialog() 'checks to see if the sheet number is 1 If sheetinfo.SheetNum.Text = "1"
Then 'sets the sheet set default values SetSheetSetDefaults(ssdb, info.NameTxt.Text,
"Description",

[Code]....
