AutoCad 3D :: Attach Light To Object?

May 25, 2012

Is it possible to affix a point light to an object so it moves with it when you move the object? I know you can simply select both and move 'em together. But I made a fixture with a lot of point lights on it and it's a pain in the ass to try to select everything in order to move it and position it.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Attach Animated Camera To Simulated Object

Oct 23, 2011

I have published the result of a dynamic simulation to the studio environment in Inventor 2012, and I would like to fix a camera to a point on the face of a simulated object. The camera target is at a point normal to this face, and its position and rotation need to update automatically with the object's current orientation at each time step to create a "point-of-view" video. The motion is too complex to be approximated by a camera path. The dialog box to define the camera allowed me enter a parameter for the rotation, but it was not stored as a variable; it needed to be manually redefined after each time step.

I think it may be possible to create a macro to redefine the camera's position, target, and rotation between each time step of the rendered animation, but I am not at all familiar with the objects and methods of Inventor's VBA. Would it be feasible to create something like this, or is there a simpler way, such as exporting the result of the simulation to another program like 3d Studio Max?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Attach Sliding Object To Roller Chain

Feb 11, 2013

I've got a chain that runs between two sprockets. In between the sprockets is a slider that needs to be attached to the chain so that the rolling of the chain moves the slider back and forth.Right now the chain just runs straight through the slider, it isn't connected at all. I can't find any way to tell Inventor that this slider is connected to the chain.

Maya Animation :: Attach Brush To Character Hand For Interactive Writing On Object

Dec 1, 2012

I've a character writing on something (it could be paper, wall, etc). Now I'm looking for a way that attaches brush to his hand for interactive writing on that object.

Don't say I have to sync it manually! it's a close up shot and motion captured movement. Indeed it's really complex movement! Imagine you are painting on a sphere with Maya's texture paint tool.

AutoCAD LT :: Can't Attach PDF As Underlay

Jun 4, 2012

I'm using AutoCAD LT 2013. When attempting to attach a PDF as an underlay, I go to the Insert tab, choose "Attach" from the Reference panel, pick the PDF I want, and then...nothing. No dialog boxes come up, I get no error messages, it just doesn't do anything at all. I just upgraded my RAM and I know the rest of my specs are up to par, and I did get this feature to work once, but now it doesn't do anything.

AutoCad :: How To Attach XREF In A PDF

Apr 10, 2013

OK I'm running AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 -

So I've had this issue for a while - I try to XREF in a PDF an it just freezes up. The command line is stuck on _PDFATTACH and nothing happens. And it's not like it'd totally frozen either because as soon as I press escape it comes right out of it, so then I save the PDF down to a JPEG or TIFF and don't worry about it for a while. Still, it is quite annoying especially when I would like to use PDF Layers but can't.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Attach Data Source

Jan 18, 2012

i have 12 base maps (transportation.dwg, utilities.dwg, etc) and each of these base maps is attached to a data source (.mdb).  when creating a new drawing and inserting these basemaps in the Task Pane by Attach Drawings & Query, i loose the connection to the data source in the new drawing

is there a way to have the datasource carry through and retain the attachment to new drawing?

also, in alot of maps we create we Xref (Transportation.dwg) and we loose the datasource in that situation too.

i'm new at this so hopefully my question makes sense.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Can't Attach PDF To Drawing

Feb 22, 2012

I have Autocad Civil 3d 2011 and recently the software was corrupted so our IT guy reinstalled everything. Now when I attempt to attach a PDF I get an error box that reads

This file cannot be opened.

The problem can be caused by several things:

-  The data in the file is corrupted

-   The file is an earlier format that is no longer supported

-   The file format is not supported

Try to obtain a better copy of the file, recreate the file using

different settings, or convert the file to a supported file format.

Now before the reinstall, I never had an issue...never saw this message before and have attached hundreds of PDFs to drawing. The only thing I will add is around the time of the reinstall, I also had installed NITRO PDF software. I believe this installation came after the problems started...just cant remember, so I wanted to throw that out just in case.

AutoCAD LT :: Attach Several PDF Files Into A Drawing?

Nov 3, 2011

I'm trying to attach several .pdf files into a drawing. Files that were sent to me attach with no problem, but when I scan sheets in using an HP LaserJetPro Printer/Scanner I get the following error:

PDFATTACH - Invalid Error

The problem can be caused by several things:

-The data in the file is corrupted

-The file is from an earlier format yadda yadda

-The file format is not supported

Try to obtain a better copy of the file, recreate the file using different settings or convert to a supported file format.

When I check the properties of the files I can attach -vs- the files I can not attach, I find no difference in version, security details etc., so I'm pretty sure the problem isn't that the file isn't supported of from an earlier version. I've tried several different files from my scanner and none will attach. I have also tried scanning using different settings with no joy.

AutoCad :: Can No Longer Attach Xref

Dec 9, 2013

I was out of town for a week and I think someone messed around with my CAD settings while I was gone. Now when I click Insert->DWG Reference, AutoCAD brings up a dialog that says: "Path to DWG file to attach:" instead of bringing me to a windows explorer type menu where I select the file to attach like it always has in the past. I can still attach xrefs by typing in xref and doing it through that menu, but what setting was changed?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Dimension Lines Won't Attach

Jan 7, 2014

I have made thousands of sheet metal parts and their associated drawings without issue but this time, I made a part and attempted to make a drawing but dimension lines won't attach to certain geometry in the drawing. It acts like it will until I click the second line for the dimension then it errors, telling me the same error message that comes up when you delete a feature that previously had a dimension.

I also can't place an origin for doing a hole chart, for example. It just turns purple and says it isn't attached even though it clearly is.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Attach Text To Leader

I am using "Attach Text to Leader" to add information about ballooned items to the balloon leader. The same information is needed for each balloon leader as shown below.

<COMPANY>, <DESCRIPTION>
<PART NUMBER>

I would like to just copy the fields from the first "Attach to Leader Text" and paste them in the subsequent  "Attach to Leader Text"  instances, instead of picking the "Type" and "Property" from the pull down lists for each of the three property I want to access, each time I place a  "Attach to Leader Text" .

The problem is the fields in the subsequent  Attach to Leader Text  pasted instances do not automatically link to iProperties on the ballooned item? how to automate this procedure/

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cannot Attach Data Source

Sep 15, 2010

I just upgraded to Civil 2011 from 2009 and a drawing I was working in, which had a database attached, is no longer working. Fine. I understand that upgrading may cause some things to not work properly.

So, I try to attach that same database and I get an error message that reads:Failed to create the data source file:

I tried creating a brand new database with newly imported information and it did not work. I tried creating a brand new database with no information , and still I get the same message.

AutoCad 2D :: Attach Arrow To Right Side Of Text

A quick question about Mulitleaders. Is it possible to force AutoCAD to attach the Arrow to the right side of the text? As it is right now if I move the arrow to far to the left, the arrow jumps over and attaches to the left side - is it possible to force it to stay on the right side no matter how far left I push it?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Qleader Won't Attach To Mtext

Feb 22, 2013

I have an older drawing that was created by somebody else that is chock full of bad CAD.  I have to add some leaders to some text and I'm using the "QLeader" command.  For some odd reason when I implement "QLATTACH" it won't attach the leader to the text.  

Yes, I could recreate the text with the Qleader command but I'm trying to avoid having to do that because there is a lot of text.  I'm not a fan of the rigidness of Mleader either so that is not an option.
