AutoCAD Map 3D :: Multiline Style Definition Cannot Be Deleted
Feb 9, 2012I have created a mlstyle definition.
It is not set current and It is not in use in the dwg, but when I open the mlstyle dialog box, I cannot delete the style.

I have drawn same multyline ( style 1) in two differance layers. Now I need to change the multyline style Type 1 to Type 2 in one layer without affecting to the other layer style.
Is thear a quick way to do this.
I have a bunch of material data in .xls form. Is there some way I can convert that to a .styxml file so I can import it into Inventor?

I don't want to create a table on a sheet, I want to define a new style and then assign the style to the existing table.
I have no problem assigning the style once it is defined in the drawing to the existing table.
Dim oTableStyle As Inventor.TableStyle oTableStyle = oDrawingDoc.StylesManager.TableStyles("BOM") Dim oTable As Inventor.CustomTable oTable = oSheet.CustomTables.Item(1) oTable.Style = oTableStyle
There doesn't seem to be a TableStyles collection with an add or create event. I stumbled upon the "TableFormat" object but that seems to only override an existing style.
looked at the "StylesManager" but again I am not finding a create method.
I've recently noticed that my multiline text boxes in old drawings have been splitting themselves into multiple multiline text boxes. They aren't exploding into single line text because it won't let me use the convert command to turn them into multiline because they are already multiline.
I know the dimassoc command can be set to a certain value to cause all dimensions to explode but is there some kind of command that could have change itself and is causing this problem?
Text style can’t be deleted!
Although, the text style “Simplexshx” (the file is attached) is neither used nor the current, but it can’t be deleted!

I accidentally deleted the “Five Lights Up” Style. How can I restore it to the Style list in the program? “Five Lights Up” is still included in the Photoshop/Plug-ins/Filters/Lighting Style folder.
I have a backup of the C drive before deleting. Is there a file that can be replaced from the backup?
I have several brush styles that I routinely distort with custom stroke profiles. Unfortunetly, every time I change the brush style, the profile is lost. Can I prevent this from happening?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use AutoCAD 2008 LT. I have a problem when trying to use multiline text. The text box will only allow me to write vertically, but when the text is completed, by left clicking on a grip and changing the rotation angle to 0 degrees, it reads horizontally. However, if I try to amend it, vertical text is the result. I do not have this problem with single line text. Whilst it is possible to read vertically, it is time wasting.

How to determine the length of a multiline. With a polyline if you click on it, it's length is displayed in the properties palette, but that doesn't work for a multiline as no length property shows up in the properties palette.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where I'm adding some text and want to identify the part with a part#. For example Item 1, I want to add a circle to the number one for it to stand out on my text notes.
The same goes for each line item I have for my text note. For example, if I have 5 lines of text notes, I want to be able to put for example a triangle around 1 thru 5 line items.

how to create the end of a multiline text, soft or hard return or control enter
View 1 Replies View RelatedI used to have a lisp routine for selecting multiple strings of single line text and converting them to a single multiline text box. I think there was even an express tool in previous versions of CAD to do this. I am in 2011 now, and I can not find a command for this. I would even settle for simply changing single line to multiline without adding multiple strings.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis has been happening intermittently but now seems to be permanent. When I slect the Multiline tool, click to place the text box, then click to place the other corner the box ignores the size I set and snaps to as wide as the screen and one line high. It does this in several different drawings so it is not native to one. If I enter text and deselect I can adjust the handles and alter the text.
I have attached a screen shot to show. It doesn't matter how close or far I am zoomed in on the drawing.
For what it's worth I do not like the way the ribbon panel controls handle text, it usually takes multiple tries to get it to change the text height. I usually resort to using the Properties flyout but that adds mutltple steps to the process.

When will working with multiline attributes get easier? Having to do multiple clicks to get to a place to edit is one thing, but then you have to use multiple clicks to get out of it. Surely Autodesk can make this an easier process. It was great when these were finally added, now they just need to be more user friendly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm getting a little frustrated with the multiline attribute. Every time a place it in a block and save the file, the tag moves to the left when I re-open the block file or try to insert the block in another file. how to stop the tag from moving? FYI Locking the tags position makes no difference.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've created tags with text below them. The text is a multline attribute. I save the block with the background mask on.
When I add these blocks to multileader styles, that setting is lost and even after creating a multileader, editing the multiline attribute and turning the mask back on, the setting will not save for some reason.
One very noticeable affect of losing the background mask is that when one is editing the multiline attribute AutoCAD leaves the original text visible and overlaying the text that is updating. This makes it nearly impossible to see the edits one is making. One has to set the background mask every time they edit that multileader if they need to change the text in the mutliline attribute.

I am using a multiple line attribute. I insert the block, fill in the text, and adjust the width of the multi-lines text so the lines are longer and there are fewer of them. I save and close the file, then re-open some time later and the width of the multli-ine attribute has reverted back to a different width (shoter) - I am assuming it is the default width that I set to the attribute. Is there a setting to stop this from happening? Is there something I should do when I create the attirbute?

When I select a block that contains a multiline attribute my AutoCAD does not display the corner grips of the attribute if its location is "locked" in the block. Is there a setting I can change to show grips in 2012? Apparently a co-worker of mine that uses 2011 has grips when selecting the block.
If I unlock the location I have grips (not the same ones I am used to seeing from mtext though) but I do not want the attribute location unlocked..I was understanding that the multiline attribute was simply an attribute containing an mtext.
I am experiencing this issue every now and then and I don't know why or how it happens. No modifications to the BlockDefinitions or any BlockReferences are made and for some magic all multiline attributes in the drawing file revert to single line. After that happens the only way I know to fix them is to go through all definitions in the Block Attribute Manager and make every attribute multiline again. This is very annoying because I don't know how it happens so it can be prevented and because it takes time to fix them again. AutoCAD 2012 (Mechanical) on Windows 7 32 and 64 bits.

I was trying to find out, how to change the width factor of multiline attribute and I failed.
The only way was to change the width factor of texstyle the attribute uses.
Is there a way to override this property for a single attribute? And if not, is there some reason for that?
