I have been trying to insert a dwf file into a dwg file, so that I can do some work on the map, so that I can then print out the new data, overlaid on the older, dwf data.
I am aware that I'd not be changing the contents of the dwf file.
My problem: AutoCAD Map keeps crashing when I zoom out to include the dwf file in my field of view, or when I zoom in to begin my work.
This is not one or 2, or even 5 crashes. I'm up to 15+ crashes now.
I've stripped all unnecessary components, turned on, unlocked, thawed all layers, removed all unneeded items. I've run purge, audit, recover, saved for each event, so as to not lose the data once the crash occurs.
My last attempt was to take a brand new map, with no data at all, and then attach the dwf file. Once I'd done that, saved the attach operation, I went to zoom to extents so I could begin the work, and-- you guessed it-- Map3D crashed!
I've filled out more error reports than my colleague who uses ArcGIS by ESRI, and they're constantly crashing.
While the dwf file was originally located on another server, due to a sufficient number of crashes yesterday afternoon, I decided to copy the file to the same file location as the dwg map so to reduce the possibility of restrictions on the server that AutoCAD would not cope with.
I simply want to do some overlay work-- which at this point will consist of just copy/pasting data-- to the dwf map file.
I write a program, this program needs to insert some standard illustrations. I made these standard illustrations into different blocks. And I store these blocks in a dwg file. Everytime I need to insert some illustrations, I just click the mouse on the current drawing, I want the illustration inserted. These means the following points:
(1) Import the blocks to the current drawing, if the blocks have already been imported, then do nothing.
(2) Specify the insert point by clicking the mouse, and I want the block's insert point to coincide with the mouse clicking point.
First, I am developing with the following system environment.
- ObjectARX 2011 - AutoCAD 2010 - C# with VS 2008
I am making a custom command that opens a open file dialog to prompt the user a dwg file.And the programmatically(automatically) insert another dwg file to the opened map.So what I tried to find a method to open a open file dialog, but couldn't find it.So next I tried to execute "OPEN" command programmatically. The following code is what I tried...
When I run the custom command, nothing happens. After opening a file, I want to insert ("INSERT" command) another drawing onto it. How could I achieve this?
I am inserting a block from another file to the current drawing file.
I am using C#.Net.
My block gets added into the blocktable record of the current file, but while inserting the block using the "Block" command in AutoCAD its shows an error "The Existing Block has not been modified" I have attached a screenshot of the message i am getting.
I want to insert the block automatically to a user specified location.
For some reason I cannot insert a file into an idw. It tells me "cannot modify the library file" "edits not allowed". I even opened an existing and tried to add it in the same idw with the same message.
It works great for my purpose BUT it doesn't auto constrain the endpoints, which is essential as I need to extrude /sweep after it has inserted.
There is an option to constrain end points when you manually do the import, but the command manager mustn't have any access to options ? So two questions I guess
1. Is there an API to insert an ACAD file into a sketch ? 2. If there isn't, is there another way to constrain the end points to make a loop after the insert?
I am having an issue with Autodesk Map 3D 201164 bit and Autocad Raster Design 64 bit. Everytime we insert a raster file into a drawing.The laptop freezes. I really thought it was because we were using XP 32 bit. We got an error message that we did not have enough RAM. After doing some research on this forum, I updated to Windows 7.
I am trying to insert an xref into a dwg file and can not find how to do this. In AutoCADD you can insert an xref that is linked to the file so that when a change is made to the attached file the xref also updates. I am trying to do this in Inventor and have not been able to figure out how to do so.
when I need to "save as" a file, or insert an image, pdf, etc, instead of a pop-up window where I can browse and select folder or files, Autocad wants me to insert this information in the command window at the bottom of the screen. For exemple (in french):
Entrez le format de fichier [R14(LT98<97)/2000(LT2000)/2004(LT2004)/2007(LT2007)/2010(LT2010)/Normes/DXF/G abarit] <R2007>:
I have been trying to simply insert points in a .csv file (PNEZD). The foints are taken SPC systems and elevations are in feet. I am using the imperial english template with no conversions. When i import the points from a file the points come in in the correct position but the elevation is in meters insted of feet!
how do I attach or insert a drawing from one dwg file into another dwg file? I'm drawing some and i want a site plan off of a different file i just want to take it and but it in my new drawing without have to draw the site plan over
I am trying to insert a AutoCad file as a Overlay into Factory.
The problem I'm having is the text in the Autocad file scales up and becomes a thick font.....I can't see or use the geometry under the text (text becomes a thick wall above with the geometry below.
The text seems to have a life of it's own..otherwise the geometry is fine. I know there are layer settings that can be turned on/off within factory.
I created a new file and stripped out the text from the AutoCad file to be able to use in Factory.
I am trying to insert an Mr Sid file using Data Connect. I am running 2011 C3D. When I try adding the file to the dwg, it tries to execute the query, but then I get an error "There was a problem adding data to map."
The folder containing the SID file has two other files...the .sdw file and the metadata file. Is there another file missing? Or is the SID file too large...it's 1.6GB.
I am working with surveying points and what I used to do was insert the dxf file containing the points to my drawing and they would be inserted with their correct scale. However, now in AutoCAD 2013, when I insert them they are in a different scale and I must adjust them. Is there anyway to have their original scale carry over in 2013?
I'm using 2012 Professional and I would like to know if there is a way to insert a structural member into a part file instead of having to use Frame Generator to get structural shapes from the content center withough having to manuall draw the section view of the member..
I am trying to insert a Dynamic Block and change it's Visibility State. I can insert the block, and the visibility state changes, however, if I manually try to change it after, it does not change, even though the value has changed. My code executes and returns no errors, so I am assuming that I have done something wrong, or missed something out.
public class MyCommands { [CommandMethod("MyGroup", "Bolts", "MyCommandLocal", CommandFlags.Modal)] public void MyCommand() // This method can have any name {
[Code].....
If I insert my block manually, I can change the states and it works fine, but the code seems to break the block.
