AutoCAD .NET :: Fastest Way To Open A Drawing And Get ObjectData Records?

Dec 12, 2013

What is the fastest way to open a drawing and get ObjectData Records?

I have been trying readdwgfile, Add, and Open. Open works but I have a lot of files run through, which seems like it would take about 3 days to open and extract each drawing. maybe if i can run a piece of code outside of AutoCAD 3D map it would be fast but i need to read the ODRecords in each drawing.

AutoCad :: Extract Furniture Schedule By Using Attributed Blocks

Nov 16, 2012

I would like to extract a furniture schedule by using attributed blocks. I would like attributes like Item #, Color, Size, Location, Description, Manufacturer, etc…. The problem with the data extraction system that I am having is that in order for a chair with a tag to be considered the same chair and be counted correctly all the block attributes have to be exactly the same/ match.

For example, if I have the same chair (CH-01) but the location of the chair changes, cad treats it as 2 different chairs.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Stretching Same Parameter In All Blocks In Drawing From One Field?

Jul 15, 2011

How do I manipulate a height parameter all of the dynamic blocks in the drawing from one single field? Say a field located in the drawing properties or on the drawing itself.

For example:  Multiple blocks of different walls of same height with other blocks of things on located on those walls, dependant on the wall height, all linked to and changed by a single field. Possibly a Wall Height field located in the custom tab of the drawing properties.

I can pickout each of the blocks and change them at the same time in properites menu because they all share the same parameter name.  I would just like to have that height parameter of every block in the drawing, that has that specific parameter controled by a single field.  Which I could enter a new height at anytime that would change every block in the drawing to that height.

AutoCad :: Fastest Way To Get To Options?

I've probably only done it 2 or 3 thousand times, but I haven't been Cad'ing too much lately, and somehow I've forgotten the shortcut to get to "Options" (ie Tools>Options)

AutoCad :: Extract X And Y Coordinates On A Drawing?

Apr 4, 2012

I have to tabulate the X and Y co-ordinates along a polyline at 1 metre intervals. I have divided the polyline into segments of one metre and have tried to use a command called data extraction. So I use this command and individually click on each point. The end result gives me the X and Y coordinates in the order I have picked them however when I put it into a table on the drawing it messes up the order?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Extract Elevations From Survey Drawing

Sep 24, 2012

I've been sent a survey drawing with elevations. The format is a block, but it's not a named block. Each entity has it's own block name. So, I'm having trouble getting at the elevations. I can't seem to export and get the elevation or Postion Z.

I've tried exploding these blocks, but all I get is a couple of polylines, and some text. Useless. I've attached a sample drawing with a couple of these points.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Extract Rev Of A Model (part Or Assembly) From Drawing

Dec 7, 2012

I'm trying to extract the Rev of a model (part or assembly) from a drawing.  Since Inventor has independent revs for the model and idw I am trying to drill down and put the rev from the model referenced.  I got it to work for ipts and many iams using:

Dim oModelDoc As Document
Set oModelDoc = oDocument.Sheets(1).DrawingViews(1).ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.ReferencedDocument

The problem I have is when the drawing only references an ipn presentation file.  The ipn ALSO has it's own independant rev!  I'm trying access the model the ipn references but cannot get it to work.

BTW, I do know about the ability to sync idw and ipt properties.  I have enable it for our template but we have a lot of legacy drawings that don't have this option selected.  I also haven't tested that method with an drawing that only references an ipn.

Code is below with offending section in bold:

' Find model (part or assembly) referenced by drawing if active document is a drawing
If oDocument.DocumentType = kDrawingDocumentObject Then
Dim oModelDoc As Document
Set oModelDoc = oDocument.Sheets(1).DrawingViews(1).ReferencedDocumentDescriptor.ReferencedDocument

[Code]....

AutoCad :: Blocks Not Retaining Their Settings From Drawing To Drawing

Mar 5, 2012

I am editing an existing block to change the lineweight and have tried using the REFEDIT command as well as double clicking the block to take me into the block editor and making my changes there. I am sucessfully able to edit my block and make the changes using both of these methods. Where I am running into an issue is that the block I have edited only retains its new settings within the drawing that I changed it in. If I insert that same block into a new drawing I have to re-edit the block again the make the changes that I want. Why are my blocks not retaining their settings from drawing to drawing.

AutoCad :: Drawing Title Blocks

Mar 30, 2013

I wanted to get opinions on the most efficient way of creating & saving title blocks, with regards to using them in future projects.

1. Create a title block in model space then save it as a .dwt file

OR

2. Create a title block in model space then save it as a block

I can't imagine there's a right or wrong way, just wanted get your input. Chances are you all know something I don't.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Copy Blocks To Another Drawing

Apr 11, 2011

I have a question.  I have several 3d models i've set up with 3d blocks in each one.  They're separate to cut down on drawing size.  I want to create a database of blocks so to speak by copying all the blocks into one drawing.  I tried going through Design Center to copy the blocks in, but it won't let me just copy them.  Is there a simple way to do this?

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Not Enabled In Drawing

Oct 15, 2013

I have a very simple dynamic block that works when I test it in the editor but refuses to work when inserted into a drawing. I am not a newbie to dynamic block creation/editing, but it has been a long time since I have had to create one and this has got me stumped.

Is it possible that my employer has somehow blocked the use of dynamic blocks in drawings?
