I need a solution how to convert SDF line features to DWG, where only one feature converted to DWG and DWG is named after feature ID. So if i have SDF file where are 3 featured( ID's are 1,2,3) and i want to convert those features to three different DWG files(one feature per DWG):1.dwg, 2.dwg etc.
View 3 RepliesI have been given the task of importing and editing an IGS sheet metal part. cannot get a feature tree.
Its a pretty basic sheet metal part just need to add few flanges, change hole/slot size. Its for a college project so I have to do it rather than just redraw the thing. I would also prefer to use inventor than solidworks (if I still have it on my laptop...).

Has imported 5,000 3d polylines to features? ...And then imported them into a surface as breaklines? My computer keeps crashing. I also need to import a few thousand points from blocks into the surface.

The question is; what are the new features for 2D? It seems like the only thing Autodesk is interested in is 3D. I don't know if I want to upgrade further.

Is there any limitation for viewport rotation with connected features?I have number of connected shapefiles that I can see in model view.
However, my paperspace viewport rotated for 70 degree can't show them.
I am trying to detect overlaps between two different features. They are, at the core, shape files from a GIS system and we have AutoCAD Civil 3D 2009.
I have reviewed the steps to test for Topo within a feature but don't know how to test topo between two features. I need to test for and identify "Overlaps" between feature A and Feature B and when Feature A is "Not Entirely Within" Feature B.
I have a drawing that has a connection to OS background map data which is an SDF file.
I want to create new entities in their own new autocad layer based on an offset value from a line in the SDF data.
For example I want to create a new line in a new layer that is say 1.0m offset from a kerb line that appears in the SDF file called OSMMLINE.
I do not want to add these new entities to the SDF data.
When I try to use the offset command Map starts to "populate feature Cache" which takes several minutes, then I can use the offset command in the usual way and create a new line - which "properties" says is in a feature class layer called OSMMLINE(1).

I have a situation where when I install Civl 3D 2013, which includes MS Visual Basic PowerPacks 10.0, it causes our KIP Request software to fail (KIP is our large format printer). Thru extensive testing we have narrowed it down to a conflict between KIP Request and the MS Visual Basic PowerPacks 10.0.I have tried uninstalling the MS VB PowerPacks10.0, which resolves my KIP request problem, and still seems to allow Civil 3D 2013 to run.
My question is - I'm sure the MS VB PowerPacks 10.0 is needed for some part of the Civil 3D 2013 software, but what features in C3D I am impacting by uninstalling MS VB PowerPacks 10.0?
So far this is the only resolution to fix the KIP Request software - but I'm afraid by fixing the KIP Request software I'm somehow messing up the Civil 3D software.
I'm plotting a drawing in which I have land parcels provided in the form of a connected ArcGIS shp file. The parcels are closed polygon features. I'd like to plot the parcels as phantom linetype. The problem is where neighboring parcels have common boundaries, Autocad Map does not filter out the overlapping boundary segments for the purpose of plotting.
As a result, the linetype becomes a mixture of phantom and solid lines and everything in between. I've tryed using plotstyles as well as styling the polygons. I don't think plot styles work with map features. The styling works when the lines do not overlap. Exploding the polygons and removing duplicate segments is not a realistic solution when working with data that is shared by true GIS programs like ArcGIS. I've seen some old postings that indicate this has been a problem for years.
When I use quick select, I can see that there are map features listed in my drawings. When I try to select these features it either says they have been selected but they aren't actually selected, or the autocad will crash forcing me to start over. How can I removed these features (which do not actually appear in the drawing) from the drawing. So many of my files seem to have this problem.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to use the different features in Map 3d such as the points, lines and polygon. I went to the help file and it instructed me to go to the display manager and right click on the "feature" layer to create a layer for the relevant feature that i want to use, but i have no "feature" layer in the display manager.
How do i create this layer? I use a template that is setup for c3d, is it due to this that there is no standard layer in the template?
I want different features on and off with iLogic.
I have a text parameter with a choice menu of 1,2, and 3
This I want some features on and off.
If I pass the parameter I get a message: No feature found with the name. Mvg Jos
Your drawings are only as good as the symbols that complete them...
When opening a third party drawing, is it possible to use the API to "recognize" user-created 3D features in AutoCAD? For example: grooves, holes, notches, and such? Also, if there are any attributes attached to the original 2D sketch, can those be queried as well?

My flat pattern of a sheet metal part fails when I added strenthening Press ribs to the middle of the part using an iFeature.
I know Inventor is not capable of flattening embossed sheetmetal but is there a way to still get the flat pattern & ignore the formed areas?
Seems to me I was able to add some model features in the past like bosses, extruded holes KO's etc & I could still make a flat pattern.
I know I can use derived part to do it but that adds complications.

when in simulation, if you suppress a feature is it totally taken out of the simulations workings?
I.e. if I was working on a project like some weighing scales and I had a load of objects on the scales and I then suppressed some of the objects, will the scales rise up a little to counteract the reduced weight?
I am working on a standard part that has different configurations depending on user inputs into a GUI. Once the user enters all the required parameters, the part is in its final form with all unnecessary features suppressed. I am looking for a way to automate the delete of the suppressed features using a rule and i Logic before the user saves the file.
The main reason for doing this is to reduce the file size of the part once it is saved because this same template will be used for hundreds of parts and I don't want to waste unnecessary storage space on suppressed features.
I am making a multiview drawing with isometric of a certain sheet metal part. Due to manufacturing reasons, they have to make the part longer than necessary to get a bend in it then I will have them shear off the extra. Is there a way I can show the multiview and flat pattern WITH the extra material and show the isometric WITHOUT that extra? In the model I remove the excess with a cut but I don't know how to suppress a feature for one view and not another.

In AutoCAD Map 2012 on Windows 7 64 bit, feature editing becomes VERY slow for more than 60 features selected. It becomes even more slow if i use properties dialog for edit feature properties. In SDF if I use constrain values, there is no copy paste option in Data Table so i must do it through properties pane. My projects consists of 20.000 or more features, so how to do it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a way that suppress the flange features of all the panels that will be insert in the assembly so i can suppress all the features at ones in a assembly and don't have to do that for each panel separately.
I have a assembly with parameters and i have a part with no geometry but have linked the parameters from the assembly. In my panel part i link the parameters to the part with no geometry.
When i use the parameter in the assembly to suppress the flanges that works the way i want it. But when i insert the panel part into that assembly it doesnot work.
I am trying to create an assembly. I want to copy the small threaded holes and position of the holes from the face of the large part and copy them to the circular part.
I want to establish a relationship so if the hole positions change on the larger part they will also change on the attached circular part.
I have several shapefiles that I have brought into a new autoCad drawing all with the same coordinate system. All display fine when zoomed out to the extents but when I zoom in the features disappear. The scaling is set to the default 0 to infinity onside of the styling so they should disappear like they are or like one would think if that was set to something else.
I also can not snap to these features while zoomed in either.
Using Inventor 2014 for some very simple (just a few component) models. When I use Studio to render an image, two objects are shown with a "cross" on them. The parts are nothing but extruded circles--nothing to them, so it's not clear to me why there are lines on their surface.
