I have been attempting to create some of my own line types by modifying the coding in the acadiso.lin file. I have been relatively successful in creating new line types but it is more by trial and error and wanted to understand the coding better.
View 2 RepliesCurrently I am working on a project which required to convert the FDO layer to DWG file through custom coding
( C# ) .
Addition Information :
I am using FDO for fetching oracle spatial data which is displaying as a layer in AUD modal space.This layer I need to save as DWG file through Custom coding ( C#).
I have an App developer that is requesting an .AI file for developing an App that can be utilized on all the following Apple hardware (iPhone 4, iPhone 5, iPod touch, iPad, iPad mini). He is insisting on it, because of the vector file. I have a design file that was completed in a layerd PSD. I want to know what, if any, quality is lost from converting from PSD to .AI vector file? Would it be better to have the Designers strach over from Scratch?

I have managed to loop through the file directories and sub-directories and even extracted the ResultBuffer of the correct sub-directory.

VB.NET loses me again.
In my VBA program I had a function to read/write an external data file to retain and recall user settings on a form.
The nature of the function was quite simple:
For Each oObject as Control in Me.Controls
If TypeOf oObject is ComboBox
Do my thing
ElseIf etc.
......
end if
Next
This code is almost identical in my VB.NET references, but when I try to run it I find the "Controls.Count" value for the form is only 1 (that object is a Tab control) thus I'm unable to access the individual controls with this code.
There is also a "ControlCollection" object, but this appears as "Nothing". Where should I go from here?
How Can I Select All Blocks Attributes Using VBA Coding
all blocks with any name with any layer with any property
We are using the linework coding to process our figures and the survey .txt file provided to me uses codes to begin lines with "+" & "-". For example, driveways are coded + DR1 for begin and - DR1 to end the line. The linework process works fine, its when I go to display the point in the description keys that are causing me problems. All the points that are in between the begin and end points display to the appropriate style because they are coded as DR*. The begin and end do not display correctly as the + & - isn't being recognized in the description key. I tried many alternate ways such as *DR*, + DR*, - DR*, with nothing working.
Is there a different format I need to be using? There are way to many points to go thru to move the + & - behind the code.
I have noticed quite a performance hit when coding the same thing in .NEt compared to VBA. I suspect this to be due to out of process calls between .net and Inventor.
Is there any way to bundle many calls and send them as one.
Example: I want to change the parameter value of a constraint and then update the assemblydocument. Can this be bundled into one call to Inventor?

I'm attempting to create a model that autmotaically derives ready-to-go drawings. I've gotten pretty far in doing so but have a few issues with regards to dimensioning. As I'm sure you're aware, when the model changes, a dimension to that feature, which has been removed, is also deleted and some those dimensions do not return once the model is changed back.
I have looked into using different view representations, but have found that they do not accommodate feature supression.
Is there a way to program in the dimensioning of a view.
Create center points for of the holes and center lines.
And for a feature note such as "Hole and Thread" dimensioning, when the model expands, the leader and text length do not change and proceed into the view. Is there a way to fix or anchor the text to a certain spot on the drawing, and have the leader length expand and change accordingly to that point.
I am setting up template .ipts and .idw for my company, and i run Adept to save and store my files. Now i have a code to automatically make a .idw after i save an .ipt. but then after every save (adept saves the .ipt a lot of times) it will ask to make a drawing for the .ipt. well i was wondering if there is a code to put in a rule to disable the event triggers, and place that rule on the trigger after close document. so that the next time i open the document no event triggers will work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to switch over in our office to importing all the points with linework already drawn in from the field. Our problem is when we are toping an area with a roadway, we commonly do cross sections. We get 2 of every line, such as the edge of pavement. I have set up our C3D to handle all our codes, but if our crews jump from one side to the other with their linework it will create a zig zag line instead of 2 parallel lines. Does C3D recognize the line code along with a number?
For example, our code for edge of pavement is EP. So the start of a pavement line would be B EP. Since there's 2 lines, we're wondering if we can do something like B EP1, then use B EP2 on the other side of the street. Will C3D still import both of those lines onto the EP layer that I have set up?
How can you "hard code" a link code or point code into a subassembly? I can use Input parameters to create the code, but then the user has the ability to change the code once in C3D?
how can you lock the name of a point or link code?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have seen somwhere that you can colour code important commands to whatever colour you like so it is easier to pick out, for example if you use the shadow and highlights that menu would be a certain colour or gaussion blur, you could highlight it in a certain colour so they stand out.
View 1 Replies View Related1. Get a picture of a car (or something else), and a picture of some matrix code.
2. cut out the car using the magnetic lasso and paste it on as a new layer on the picture of the matrix code.
3. Go to image, adjustments, Hue/Saturation., and adjust it so it looks like the color of you code.
4.Copy a large square chunck of code and place it on a new layer.
5. The go to Edit, Define Pattern, and call it matrix.
6.now go to your car layer and click a part of the picture other than the car and ckick on it with the magic wand tool. Then right click on that same spot and click on select inverse, then copy it.
7. Now drag this layer over the layer of the matrix code and erase around it until it fits in nicely with the rest of the code. (don't erase too much.) Then press control+E to merge the two layers into one.
8. Duplicate the green car layer twice, and set all three car layers mode to vivid light.
9.Then mess with the Hue/Saturation menu until you car blends in nicely.
(Optional part which I did on the picture posted here)
10. Press the print screen button and copy and the paste image you get into a new image. Then use the magic wand tool on the car from your original image and copy and paste it on top of the new matrix car on a new layer.
11. Then while the lines are on the car you pasted, go to the car that is already there and copy and paste it onto a new layer. Then delete the first car you pasted in.
12. Mess with the Hue/Saturation on the car layer until it blends in with the matrix coding even better.
I have always done up templates in photoshop and from there transformed that template into html in dreamweaver, but yesterday discovered in dreamweaver thast you can output these templates into css format web pages....... my question is which is better hand coding it your self or letting imageready do the job for you.
If you do an entire web page from image ready does it not leave a huge amount of unneccessary graphics in your file, and also from the point of search engine optimisation are you not leaving all your key wiords out as graphics? can you delete certain parts out in dreamweaver and re fill with html colors and text?
I need to transform a selection of ranges of grayscale image in colors. For example: using GSM of a gray scale image as a parameter I want to recode pixels from 0 to 20 in red, 21 to 40 in orange, 41 to 60 in yellow and so forth... until pixel valued 256 in GSM.

Using LR3, on a Mac.
I found all of the javascript on my Expression Web 4 project coding had lost its color coding. All the text was black.It doesn't matter if the code is in a js file or in a html page.I tried, Tools > Page Editor Options... and Color Coding Tab, going to, and changing Display items called "Script ??????". But it doesn't fix it.
The only one that seems to work is "Script Identifier", and that changes all of the script to one color.Later in September I did a bit more.
I went to System Restore and restored my computer to a date two weeks previous.This fixed the problem. Color Coding for JS files in EW4 returned.I then started to install the Windows Updates and Programs that where installed in this period, until the problem came back. (Color Coding for JS files disappeared.)
The problem seemed to come on when I install Corel Paintshop Pro X4 (trial Version).At the same time I installed PSP X4, DirectX was installed. I don't know if PSP X4 had anything to do with the DirectX install.
If I uninstall PSP X4, the problem still remained with EW4.The only way to restore the problem with EW4 was to use System Restore again and restore to the state before the DirectX Install.
Today 20th November I did some more testing.Again my color coding for javascript went back to black.
I've had a couple of Windows 7 updates recently, (KB917607, KB 2607576 and also SP3 for Microsoft Office 2007) not sure if this bought the problem back on.
Apart from many other programs, I have:
Expression Web 4
Corel Paint Shop Pro X4
Corel Video Studio Pro X4
Today I thought I would do a bit more testing. I reloaded PSPX4 using file PSPP_X4_PF.exe This caused the color coding for javascript to go black.
I thought, what if I reload it again on top of the existing file. BUT I accidentally reloaded Video Studio X4 (File VSX4_Pro_TBYB.exe) Running this file a second time (File VSX4_Pro_TBYB.exe), actually asks if you want to remove Video Studio X4. I said no and cancelled.Now I went back to EW4 and the color coding for Javascript had miraculously re appeared.
When I reboot the PC and go to EW4 javascript, the color coding has gone.When I run Video Studio X4 (File VSX4_Pro_TBYB.exe) a second time and do the cancel, the color coding comes back.
I can do this any amount of times,
Reboot - no color.
Reload VSX4 - color returns.
Reboot - no color.
Reload VSX4 - color returns.
Something seems to get loaded on the initialising of VSX4.
Quick question...
Once a 3D object is drawn/completed in Inventor LT, how does one go back to the object to change the length/radius of certain objects without having to completely redrawn the object. For instance, imagine a bike wheel that is fully draw. Later perhaps one wants to go back to the wheel and adjust the radius of the spokes and the length. How does one do this quickly. In 2D I see how, but can this also be done in 3D with Inventor LT?

I have created this function that is to move all the attributes based on a startpt and a newpt. If the last argrument to the function is true, all attributes move the same amount in the x & y direction(this part is working fine). If the argument is false. I want the attributes to align with the x value of the first attribute. It works unless the user has set a UCS. I need to align the attributes to the UCS not the WCS. Can't seem to figure out the right transformby to apply.
Public Sub MoveAttributes(ByVal Blockobj AsObjectId, ByVal stpnt AsPoint3d, ByVal endpt AsPoint3d, ByVal alignatt AsBoolean)
If Blockobj.IsNull ThenExit Sub
Dim attributeDistFactor AsDouble = 0.1371425
Dim xmove AsDouble = stpnt.X - endpt.X
Dim ymove AsDouble = stpnt.Y - endpt.Y

I am trying to do a "quick and dirty" stopgap.
I am in the process of repairing and assembling the various systems for a luxury yacht - electrical, mechanical etc. The ultimate goal is to get a full 3D layout of parts and assemblies, then using tube and pipe and cable and harness to run conduits, aircon ducts, fuel lines....
All I have to go on are .dwgs
In the meantime I need to submit a modified .dwg to the engineers overseas to get the O.K. on swapping the order of certain components. All I need to do is change the labels text on the layout, nothing else.
I have imported the .dwg into an Inventor sketch and edited the text.
Now I am stuck. Placing the view into a new drawing shows nothing.
RMB export sketch as .dwg works, but not a single line of text shows, only the layout.
I have been fortunate enough to have been given access to use a plasma cutter at a local community college, of which I am employed. It is a new Torchmate system (4'x8'), The design computer is loaded with Torchmate 5 CAD. I wanted the ability to design at home and then import the .DXF file into the torchmate to burn my designs. I have loaded Autocad 2012 and only work in the 2d mode, which leads me to my question.
If I draw straight line and want to modify the line in Torchmate CAD/CAM I can edit the nodes and pull the line into whatever shape I would like.
Can this be accomplished with Autocad as straightforward as this? If so can you explain how I would do this? I have played around with this for a few hours but the closest I can get is using a the Polyline tool, but I am not able to add or delete nodes that allow me to customize my line.
Does AutoCAD LT support feature like this?! : If I have the same objects copied in different locations in design and I need to change something in this object! Is it possible that I modify the original or one of the objects and all other(copies of the one I modify) objects change accordingly?!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have written a command that replaces the given annotative scale of all objects in a drawing, with another annotative scale. Works great, except I can't remove the replaced annotative scale (with SCALELISTEDIT - DELETE button), unless I save the drawing and then open it again.
An annotative scale that is in use, can't be deleted. But since I can delete it after reopening the drawing, I am sure it is not in use anymore.
Is there a way to "refresh" the drawing/database, without reopening it?
