AutoCAD Map 3D :: Draw Order With Display Maps
Sep 11, 2013
We have a project where we have a combination of CAD data and shape files (connected) with various labels in both formats.
They are in the proper order for both 'Groups' and 'Draw Order' in the 'Display Manager'.
We have two separate viewports, created and named using 'Display Maps' with the applicable layers turned to visible as each viewport requires (some common shapefiles need to be display, some different, some different CAD data also). When we do a regen within one viewport the other non-active viewport immediately loses its draw order (CAD objects appear above the shapefile data). If we switch viewports and Regen then the first viewport will lose its draworder.
Could this be a case for Autodesk Subscription and the developer's to resolve?

So I'm having an issue with draw order... I have a base with a solid screened hatch that is xrefed into a sheet file in model space. I have text, reference bubbles, dimensions, etc in paper space. When I print, the information in paper space that is above the hatch isn't showing up. Usually the information in paper space would show up when I print without having to deal with draw order...

I have a model with jpg textures.
I renamed all the textures to tif textures and now 3ds Max tells me that there are still missing jpeg textures.
I followed the tutorials on the web to fix these issues : I mean by using the material/map browser but I can't find the "root Only" checkbox that is in 3ds Max 2009.
How can I display all the maps used in the scene ?

I like to set up my draw order within my CAD file since I use many XREFs to create my design. Every time I go back into the drawing the draw order reverts back. How can I get it to stay in the order I have changed it?

Is there are tool somewhere where you can make the draw order layer specific. I.e so we have a layer with a certain number of items on it that always appear above another layer with other types of items.
We tend to use leaders a fair bit and they often drop below some of our design elements, ideally we want them to be at the front & have to spend time bringing to front / sending to back etc.

I have been unable to make Draw Order work well. The attached file and other ones I created would not work. The goal is to have the boarder and text (color 7) always stay on top after it is created as a block and pasted to any drawing. After pasting it, the text go underneath the shade (color 155). I have used Draw Order, picked the objects in the order I would like, repeated the same steps inside the Block Editor and Edit Block In-Place, still, the block would not work. I never had this issue before - seem to have stared today. Don't know what else to do. The only thing that works is keep recreating the block till one works, which seldom works.

I like my Dimenion Extension Lines to be hidden if over another object, so I use the Draw Order button "Send to Back", but it gets a bit tedious to do it every time.
I searched this forum and found a thread that explains how to create a keyboard command to do it, which is useful, but I'm wondering can I set a property of Dimensions (or any other object for that matter) so that when it is created its Draw Order is automatically set to the Back (or the front, if I wish)?

Is there any way to have more control over the Draw Order? "Move to the Back," "Bring Annotation to Front" etc. is so clumsy and not precise.
PhotoShop has a whole Layers palette where you can drag certain layers above others. Right now I'm tearing my hair out because my Electricity layer keeps getting hidden behind the Furniture Layer which must also contend with the Flooring Layer... Isn't there a setting to do this permanently?
To permanently set up which layers will automatically be above or below other ones?
I'd want something like this...
TOP
- Text layers
- Dim Layers
- Electrical symbols
- Electrical appliances
- Furniture
- Wall Cladding
- Flooring
BOTTOM

What I want to do is to have an area label where the text background mask obscures linework but does not obscure the parcel fill (hatch). I think it looks bad when you have a light hatch where the background mask cuts a big hole in it.
Usually I would use draw order to do something like this. But since the fill and text are part of one object that won't work. I looked to see if there was any way to affect the order in the Parcel Style but didn't see any.

I've got a Profile View style set up just the way I want it. The only problem that I have is that the automated fill hatch that I'm using between my existing and finish profiles is showing up behind the grid lines. Unfortunately, we use "lines overwrite" as a standard, so I can't just switch to "lines merge". Any way or a setting that would allow me to move the draw order of the fill hatch above the grid lines?

I've used cad now in a basic 2d architectural sense now for 10 years, through various versions.
I have recently dropped back to a 2007 from 2008 (changed jobs) and for some reason the draw order is all messed up i noticed this first through hatching but its on everything including inserted images.
I've tried a few of the solutions on other threads even uninstalling cad and re-installing it and nothing seems to be sorting it. Functions like 'send to back' etc just don't work and the draw orders are all to pot.

The draw order toolbar icon is displayed on screen. When I try to change the draw order, I hit the toolbar and get an AI_Draworder unknown command. I even moved the toolbar in a different part of the screen. The only why I can now change the draw order on an entity is the type in the word draworder in the command line. Is there any way to reactiviate the draw order toolbar?

I use image insert to attach aerial photographs. I would like to use the FDO raster connection, but I keep having a problem with the raster image losing it's display order. I use "display order" in the display manager and move the raster to the bottom, but for some reason it keeps popping above the line work and I have to keep sending it to the back.
I put images in drawings quite frequently as they change from year to year and we monitor a large number of projects yearly. Is image insert still the quickest solution or is there a way to ensure the image will retain it's display order when I do a data connect?

I have several shp files ordered in the display manager. Three Polygons, one line and one point shp. the problem is that the bottom polygon that is supposed to draw order last continues to show up above all other files during plotting to PDF or other digital file. I have tried to disconnect and reconnect the problem shp, reorder several times but nothing changes. This is making it impossible for me to plot a file in the way is it being displayed.

How do I get the draw order to stay the way I want when I close and reopen a drawing? I even think that a couple times, without even closing and reopening the drawing, the draw order has flipped back to the way I don't want it after changing it.

the layer order will not function as soon as the block is made dynamic. I have been creating my blocks the harder way and still have more to do, so what to do.
The last time I asked the Autodesk technician, I was told it is a program (Autodesk) issue which I call a bug. I have tried the draw order and the Textofront still, no better result.

I have come across a situation whereby when a user redefines a block in a drawing it is changing the draw order of the xrefs.The block in question is the Plan frame, and is located in paperspace. The user redefines the block and the xrefs change their draw order in the viewport. A regen does not unfortunately correct the issue.Drawings were created with Civil 3D 2010. The plan frame block is a dynamic block.

I can't find where to set the display order of layers. I have lines that display under a PDF underlay but I can't drag the layer above the others. They appear to be in alphabetical order, which, while frustrating, I can live with if AC will allow me to easily move layers around some other way.

how to control the draw order of objects created within an array in a dynamic block?
I have a wipeout, which works fine on the array source, but when the array produces babies, it places them infront of everything (which is only logical), making the wipeout useless.
Can I set array babies to have the same draw order as their parent?

I have a surface and a pipe network. I am trying to print out a picture of these two objects rendered for the engineer to see. I have the surface as a rendered surface, but the pipe network is displaying under the surface (so it is invisible) and I was wondering if there was a way to have the pipe network display "thru" the surface so the engineer can see the pipe network with all the pipes drawn underneath the surface. Is this possible?

I have a solid hatch pattern I want to use on a sheet that would display under a Model Space View (MSV).
(Ideally, I would like the hatch to come from an xref set up in the .dwt for the sheet, but I won't push my luck.)
Unfortunately the solid hatch always remains above the MSV. Refer to image attached. I have tried the following :
- 'Draw Order' - 'Send to Back' of the hatch (including it's bounding box)
- "hatchtoback"
- "hpdraworder" = 1
- "sortents" = 0
