I worked on a project a while back and loaded a sid into the drawing coord correct. I now have opened that drawing again and I get big letters with the image files path. I have tried to restore it but cannot get it back to the same coordinates. Is there a way I can restore the image without having to reinsert it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a new computer and want to move the databse catalog over. I backed up in PSE 9 to an external hard drive. I connected to HD to the new computer and tried a resotre catalog. I chose "New Location" since I was going from XP to Windows 7 and was unsure if there would be a conflict with file locations. I also chose "Restore Original Floder Strucure". Very quickly I recieve an error message "Could not restor file .xml". I have run Restore Catalog several times and each time a DIFFERENT FILE receives the error message. I then disabled Norton Anti Virus Auto-Protect. I then disabled several programs running in the background. Same problem. I then copied the Backup Catalog to the new computer and tried to Restore it from there. Same Problem. I have now run a Repair Catalog on the original file. PSE states there is no error. I want to purchas PSE 11, but wanted to install/restore the database with the same version 9 first.

I have a capstone lab project due tomorrow for my graphic arts class and I made a HUGE mistake!!! I created an image using 20 something layers and did SAVE AS as a .xcf image (with all layers open). Part of the project was to save in different formats: .xcf (with open layers), a .png, and a .jpeg (optimized). So, I did the first save and then flattened the image to SAVE AS a .png with a different file name.
Long story short, I was tired and had way too many images open at once. When I was closing all of the images I accidentally saved the changes (flatten image) to my original .xcf (with open layers)!!!! Now, my .xcf that is supposed to have open layers only has one layer...the finished project!! I tried going to the file properties to restore a previous version, but it says that no previous versions were found! I also downloaded a norton "unerase" utility, but maybe I am not scanning properly to locate the file!?!

Visual Lisper trying to migrate to .net! how to restore a form?
I have an "about" project which contains 3 forms.
Form1 is displayed by default when the command is called...it contains two buttons which both close form1 & open form2 or form3. What I would like to happen is that when form2 or form3 is closed, form1 will be restored.
This is the code which defines the command & shows form1:
<code begins>
[CommandMethod("EzAbout")]
public void EzAbout()
{
Form1tvf1;
tvf1 = newForm1();
Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.ShowModelessDialog(null, tvf1, false);
}
<code ends>
This is the code from the button on form1:
<code begins>
private void button1_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.Close();
Form2 tvf2;
tvf2 = new Form2();
Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.ShowModelessDialog(null, tvf2, false);
}
<code ends>
This is the code behind the close button on form2...trying to restore form1 (it closes form2 but does not restore form1)
<code begins>
private void closeButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.Close();
Form1 tvf1;
tvf1 = new Form1();
Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.ShowModelessDialog(null, tvf1, false);
}
<code ends>

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm in AutoCAD Architecture 2010. I've lost all menubars and need to reload. I was perfectly happy with the 2010 ribbon. When I search other forums it seems the answers are all geared toward restoring the older format of menubars because people are unhappy with the 2010 ribbon. That does not apply to me. I just want to restore the default 2010 ribbon menu bar.
I've tried the "Menu bar" command and have not found the original 2010 default menu bar. Maybe it's there and I'm not figuring it out. Steer me to a path to reset and re-establish the default 2010 setup?
I prefer to not have to uninstall and re-install the program to get back to the default settings if I don't have to.
I kept getting a fatal error when I tried to open the layers manager and I found a discussion board saying I had to do a system restore to fix the problem. Well I did a system restore and now autocad won't even load. I click on the icon and the hour glass goes but then it disappers and nothing happens. I have windows 7 if that makes a difference. I have been using 2007 lt for a few months now and everything worked fine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have lost several days of work when Vault has overwritten my local files, about 5 iam and 20 ipt-files. I think it started with a crash and then when I reopened my main assembly it was 13 days old.
It seems that I have forgot to check in my local files to Vault since that date. I am not sure how it happened but I suppose I have answered the question (about replacing local files by older versions from Vault) wrong. Is there any possibility to restore my overwritten files?
OK, something I did completely displaced my ribbon from the default horizontal location to either a floating or dockable vertical layout. It's probably staring me right in the face but how can I change it back?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI tried to create a new workspace, and it was sort of working where I could switch between my custom workspace and the original 2 or 3 Autocad workspaces. Then I think I loaded a menu and the other (original work spaces) have disapeared. How to restore these without doing a re-install?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed Autocad Architecture 2013 only to learn that Autodesk once again is hard at work making our lives difficult. For some reason they seem to want us ALL to use the ribbon. The ribbon in my opinion is HORRIBLE. I MUCH prefer the classic workspace since I do not use many toolbars and I key in the vast majority of my commands. As such, I get rid of the ribbon because it takes up too much space considering the fact that I only use a handful of buttons from the ribbon. But Autodesk has thrown a bunch of obstacles in my way.
1. Type "ribbonclose" - this closes the ribbon.
2. Type "cui" - this bring up the Customize User Interface dialogue box.
3. Right click on workspaces. Enter a new name for your new workspace.
4. (optional) Right click on toolbars to make your own. Then drag and drop commands from below into your new toolbar.You may also notice that you no longer have toolbars, soooo..
5. Type "menuload" - things brings up the Load/Unload Customizations dialogue box.
6. Click "Browse".
7. Select the first file ending in ".cuix". Click "Open". Click "Load". If you get an error message don't worry.
8. Repeat step 7 for each and every file ending in ".cuix".
Now you have tool bars and menus. However, the Express menu may STILL not work.
9. Then visit this webpage:URL.... to get the Express menu working.
10. Close autocad. and re-open autocad.
11. Set up your screen the way you like it.
12. Either click on the workspace switching icon on the lower right portion of your screen or type "workspace" and select "Save Current As".
13. Save your workspace with whatever name you like.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to move our firm to using a UCS that aligns with the viewport.
However my hesitation has always been that World does not seem to restore to the original coordinates.
We do survey drafting and the map grid coordinates are critical and we drop in new survey data over the existing on a regular basis.
I tested it again last week but still I cannot insert new data into the same position even after restoring to World UCS. It is consistently about 1.5 units offset from the correct position.
Am I doing something wrong? Should USC World set it back the identical original coordinates such that I could confidently paste with a 0,0 base point and have geometry by in the correct position.
I'm trying to import a .SAT file into ACAD 2000. I'm using the ACISIN command. Usually I don't have any problems with this. When I find a .SAT file that is too recent, I use HOOPS 3D Part Viewer v13.15 for ACIS to save down the file.
Lately I've been trying to import some Colson caster CAD files from 3dcontent central and I have a problem when I get to the ACISIN portion of my procedure. I get this message
"Modeling Operation Error:
Missing integer in restore file.
Unable to read the ACIS file"
The file looks fine in HOOPS. I'm not sure why it's not coming into ACAD. I used to not have this problem but I'm having it a lot lately.
Just reviewing the discussion board, I find that there is an indication that this error has been around since longer than AutoCad 2000.
We are currently using AutoCad 2010 in combination with Cadworx 2010 and still encounter the "Missing Integer in Restore File" error randomly. Once this error is encountered, the drawing file is rendered virtually useless.
I have a customize form to use in AutoCAD. If I minimize the form, I can not see it anymore in the AutoCAD application tray. I want to minimize my form and later restore it after editing in .dwg file.

I recently switched from Civil 3D 2012 to 2013 student version because when I initially installed the program I probably messed up some of the settings that I shouldn't have for my entire application. After reinstalling it, I noticed that the program seems to run just fine but the settings for the original file I'm trying to work with remain, such as label settings, linescales, etc.
I want my drawing to match the settings of new drawings when it comes to labels, scales, and anything else I might have changed. Is there a way to apply these settings to my original file? If not, is there a way to at least make sure the label styles can be reset? I don't want any changes to the settings I made to be present in my file.
How do I go about restoring, repairing or fixing the default materials and appearances that come installed with Inventor Pro 2013? I have a stand-alone single seat installation. SP 1.1 has been installed.
I tried to create a custom library of materials and appearances by making a copy of InventorMaterialLibrary.adsklib and renaming it. I then added new materials. Depending on project, I get nag messages regarding template styles in conflict with the library styles. I'm also getting message warning me that the InventorMaterialLibrary can't get loaded.
It is my intent to create a custom materials and appearances library that mimics the as installed InventorMaterialLibrary plus some additional materials and appearances. The custom library and appearances need to be available to all NEW projects and MAY be added to existing projects without getting the nag message about style conflicts.
I'm also seeing a behavior where the default appearance changes from standard light gray to the first appearance listed in the Autodesk Appearance Library, the 1.5 inch blue tile. I suspect that's the reason I'm getting the nag message. How do I fix this? How do I prevent this from happening in the future?
1) Restoring default as installed material and appearance libraries
2) Creating a custom materials and appearance library to contains ALL items found in the InventorMaterialLibrary plus new materials and appearances
3) Preventing nag style conflict messages
4) Preventing the default appearance of light gray to change to the 1.5 inch blue tile
