Working on gas transmission classification using the "sliding mile" for the building count? If so what procedure are you using. At this point I have run the 660' buffer around the lines added the address/structure point queried to within the buffer polygon then select all the points along a mile of point to get a count.
View 2 RepliesI have a pline include some radius, and it has so many perpendicular line on it, so you can see it in attachment.
What i want to do is, write numbers for each perpendicular line 1,2,3..etc,
and write distance for each line (for each mile stone).
I have several LAS files that I have brought into AutoCAD and created PCG point cloud files. You have the option to assign Civil3D properties so I assign the LAS classification properties but they don't apply to the file.
The classification style seems to work with the ISD file extension in Civil3D, but do the LAS classifications not work for the PCG format?? I can only view the PCG file by single color or by elevation range, not by classification.
My task is to write an automated routine that checks for a certain classification added to Duct objects.
In the classification definition SfB all classification names of the form (XX)X should be altered/renamed to the form XX.X
Defining a Classification object Classfc as Autodesk.Aec.DatabaseServices.Classification my problem is that the property Classfc.Name is readonly.
I'm try to set a classification for a list of objects with .net. I'va found some discussions regarding changing and iterating classification trees, but none setting the classification for entites, similar to selecting a classification in ui.

The CADdesigners have asked me if i can make a function that runs through our AutoCAD 2012 MEP model attaching certain predefined classification definitions to ducts, pipes, MVparts etc.
I have used hours searcing for examples / tutorials on how to connect to the MEP objects not finding what i need.
If I do a print screen and paste, for instance, a website into Photoshop, the colors are off by a MILE. Everything appears all washed out, it's really awful.

I need to design a walking track 1 mile (5280 feet) from a starting point and finishing at the same point. I need to go around buildings, ponds, etc. What is the best way to tackle this? I thought about 16 splines at 330', but as soon as the spline is moved the distance changes.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on detail drawing for a wardrobe with 2 TOP mounted sliding doors. But how do they attached on the wardrobe and how the track and rolls work.
Here is a picture for my conceptual design.
I am working on a Sliding Folding Door simulation and I am having much difficulty applying limitation to angular dimension and applying constraint to blocks (sometimes it works, sometimes not).
I want to know whether there are ways to set variable angles i.e angle x instead of a definite angle i.e angle 75.
how one would go about creating a garage door that slides around a cruved 90 degree track? I.E. has 5 VERTICAL divisions and slides around a curved track to rest flat against an adjacent wall?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to apply the right constraint in stress analysis environment.
How would I apply the right constraint? And to which face of the wheel or axle should I apply the constraint to get right results.
If I'm applying the sliding connection to the face of the wheel in z direction, the model will stop stress analysis with an error of "not enough constraints"
if I apply the sliding constraint to the inside of the wheel on the surface of the circle, I get the result as attached. I get 0 reaction in the Z direction which is wrong and should be zero reaction in x direction. How do I get it right?
The correct way to me would be a constraint that would only take forces in the -Y direction, same direction as gravity.
The wheel should not have any other reaction than in the Y direction. Hoe do I define that constraint? In my model the wheel are free to rotate on the axle.
I'm attaching both the general arrangement and the reaction report.
I have an issue with a sliding joint in a simulation.Here we have a very simple box with a cylinder that slides around a closed loop curve. The curve as you will see is described by two circles and one elipse that all overlap to give a smooth closed loop. In the assemble this all works fine - you can freely drag the cylinder around the curve. However in dynamic simulation when I try to insert a 'sliding cyclinder on curve' joint I get the message that only lines, arcs and splines can be used for a curve. If I change the elipse to another circle then I don't have this problem. So is Inventor restricted to arcs of circles rather than arcs of elipses? Is there a way around this?, Do have I have to draw the whole curve as a spline?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set up a sliding/no separation contact within and assembly for FEA purposes. I want to eliminate all moments (torque) between two pieces while still allowing one to impart force on another. When evaluating constraints, I'm seeing moments are infect being passed through. The guide mentions this contact for planer and cylindrical objects but makes no reference to spherical surfaces.
Is it possible to accomplish this type of a contact on spherical surfaces?
Now that I have Windows 7 and CS 6 is fully functional, I have a few quirks. One involves the cursor. If I am, say, using the hand tool to move across an image, when I release the hand tool, the image continues to slide across the screen. Is there something I need to disable to get this to stop?

The panit effects viewport flickers several times per second while sliding the stoke or brush parameters in the attribute editor. It blink once when holding down the Alt button or press the "redraw panit effects view" button in the view port. It seems like it's keeping redrawing for every change related to the parameters, and this problem is just in the panit effects mode.
I'm a newbie to panit effects,
Following is the flickering screen shot.
I want to crop an image visually, by sliding the cropping bars by eye. Not by typing in a specific size. How do I do that? My cropping tool seems to be set on some dimension. I've "reset" it, tried recropping from the "original" but still when I move the top horizontal bar in the cropping tool, it automatically is moving the vertical sides. As if a preset size/dimension/ratio is applied to it. Although I didn't apply any such dimension.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am looking to draw my pipe with a thicker appearance than the typical line of width "0". Our storm pipes are usually drawn with this so as to stand out from other utilities. If the pipe is represented by a polyline, I have usually adjusted the "Width" or "Global Width" value to my liking. With pipe objects, it seems more complicated. I have searched the settings, and the closest thing that I could find was the Lineweight property, but that appears to have no effect on the line thickness in the CAD drawing.

I needed to remove a feature line that I used as a break line when creating a surface. When I removed the feature line from the definition of the surface, the grading did not change. It appears the points created by the feature line remain which is why grading didn't change. The only work around was to delete these points.
I noticed the same thing happens when I removed the surface boundary and inserted a new boundary. why these points remain and how to remove when I delete boundary and feature line from surface?
I have a line or a pline segment and i want to start a line from a point laying there and go perpendicular outwards. Is there a way to do it with tracking?
Yes, i saw the command draw line at an angle but i find it a little bit complicated for a simple task like that. I am sure autodesk have a simplest solution about that.
If i am already at the draw line mode and i can easy catch the tracking perpendicular to previous segment but if i want to start from another line and go perpendicular i cannot make the tracking work.
We are creating a new company title block for the use in Inventor 2010 and AutoCAd 2010. It has initially been generated in Inventor and exported to AutoCAD. My problem is that all attributes that came over are now setup as multiline attributes and I can't seem to change them to single line. Therefore you have to open the multiline editor separately for every single item to make changes in lieu of just 'tabbing' through the values in the Enhanced Attribute Editor. This adds time and frustration and seems to be intolerable for some of my colleagues.
Is there a way to change the attributes to a single line in AutoCAD I'm just not aware of? I tried to find different settings for the export from Inventor but the options seem to be very limited.
I could probably go over this and create separate AutoCad only titleblock and border but that would kind of defeat the purpose.
