View 3 RepliesI have a GIS parcel file that I have connected to. The file works fine, but when I change the linetype from continuous to a center or dash-dot linetype I have trouble. The parcels are all closed polygons so everywhere the parcels touch, the parcel lines overlap and the linetype is very disjointed. Instead of looking like a "center" line, it looks like a solid line with a radom gap here and there.

Any lisp routine that can alert you to the fact that there are overlapping dimension lines (not the extension lines) in a drawing by changing them to color White or something? I have pasted a routine that we use which changes all dimenions with "modified text" to color white. That way I can see if someone just typed in the dimension distance they wanted instead of what was actually there.
(defun c:dc (/ dim_length)
(setq ssmod (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "Dimension")(cons 1 "~"))))
(if ssmod
(progn
(setq dim_length (sslength ssmod))
(command "Change" ssmod "" "P" "C" "w" "")

How to avoid the overlap between the level sign and the drawing?
I’m wondering concerning the default behavior of the Revit regarding the level signs. In the screenshot below, a wall of 9 meters is drafted in the indicated location while its 4 elevations are displayed next to it.
the north elevation has an overlap with the level signs and also the south elevation is at the end of the level signs. how to manage this problem and also based on what these levels are set this way (by design).How the overlap might be avoided?
Not sure how to word this question correctly. I saw a co-worker do a 'temp-save' on a drawing, mess around with drawing, and then come back to the spot in drawing where he had 'saved' to essetially deleting all the stuff he had done. I cannot remeber what he used to mark this and then be able to come back, but if he liked the edits he had made, he could just keep drawing.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a VBA macro (for Inventor 2010) that would have to work on drawing .idw files that are generated from a given component.So when I have an open assembly document, I want to go through all component occurences and work with the associated drawing.
There's a built in command in Inventor for that, in the context menu, something like "Open drawing" (mine is german, so not sure how it's called in english), which does this. It opens the drawing of the given part. From this I assumed, there must be a reference within each part, that points to the referencing drawing.
But I'm not able to find this information anywhere within the properties/objects of any component.how or where can I get this information out of the components?

This may be linked to another problem I need an answer to.
I had 2011 C3D installed, uninstalled it, then installed 2012 C3D. Stand alone license.
Now the icons for all dwg files, the one that should show that ACAD is the application that opens it, does not show in windows explorer. See the attachment.
I have done the "file open with ... Always use the selected..." thing with no result. I have also used the repair function on the install disk with no result.
