AutoCAD .NET :: Bounding Boxes Around Blocks

Apr 3, 2013

We have two lines which are crossing. Now I want to find bounding box as shown on the picture.

Do we have some special methods (in AC) or I must find bounding points manually?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Bounding Boxes Around Items With Extrusion Vector

Apr 1, 2013

I have 3d items exported from sketchup, that have extrusion vectors to them.the VLA-GETBOUNDINGBOX lisp function seems to return values from the block's coordinate system.

I need values as if there was no extrusion vector, in WCS.I am not clear on how to do this, as it seems like I want a fundamentally different box.Is there a way to recalc the box orthogonal to world coord system for each insert of the block? URL....

AutoCad :: Add Selection Boxes Or Pick Boxes To Block?

Jun 10, 2011

Can add selection boxes or pick boxes to a block?

Here's the situation. I have a block that will be inserted showing a piece of angle iron that is used for a stiffener. We have various sizes that will need to be used. Instead of typing in the angle size each time it's inserted can I have a list of all the angle sizes and then a pick box or radial dial or something to be selected and that is what is put in the block?

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Get The Bounding Box Of A Drawing

Oct 1, 2013

I'm using the following code to take a snapshot of the model:

 private Bitmap GetScreenshot() { int cvPort = Convert.ToInt32(Application.GetSystemVariable(RenderingManager.CVPORT_SYS_VAR)); using (View view = new View()) { this.graphicsManager.SetViewFromViewport(view, cvPort); view.VisualStyle = new VisualStyle(VisualStyleType.Hidden); using (Device dev = this.graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADOffScreenDevice()) { dev.OnSize(graphicsManager.DisplaySize); dev.DeviceRenderType = RendererType.Default; dev.BackgroundColor = System.Drawing.Color.White; dev.Add(view); dev.Update(); using (Model model = graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADModel()) { using (Transaction transaction = this.database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { BlockTable blockTable = (BlockTable)transaction.GetObject(this.database.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead); BlockTableRecord blockTableRecord = (BlockTableRecord)transaction.GetObject(blockTable[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForRead); view.Add(blockTableRecord, model); transaction.Commit(); } Bitmap bitmap = view.GetSnapshot(view.Viewport); view.EraseAll(); dev.Erase(view); return bitmap; } } } }

 I'm currently passing the entire viewport to the GetSnapshot method, but I'd like to restrict it to the minumun rectangle containing the drawing. The following image explains what  I mean (in red the viewport, in black what i need):

how can I compute the black rectangle?

AutoCAD .NET :: Get All 4 Values Of Bounding Box For Particular Object?

Jul 3, 2013

Is it possible to get all the 4 values of the bounding box for a particular object.I have to plot a curve of maximum point for a particular object on a given path at certain intervals(ex: a block on a curved line and distance between each block should be maintained say 10mm).The problem im facing when im connecting the maximum points is if the path is inclined then the maximum point coonecting line intersects the block at some places.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Text With Bounding Box

Jan 13, 2012

I use the bounding box (vla-getboundingbox) to assess parameters of blocks.  These blocks have text on some of the faces that extends beyond the simple dimensions of the blocks themselves.  I'm wanting to have bounding box ignore the text and can't sort it out.  I've tried putting the text on a separate layer and turning it off and freezing it.  

 I've considered looking at sub entities and filtering out the text but I don't know if there is a solution here or not.

AutoCAD LT :: Hatch Message - Proxy Metafile Contains Bounding Box / Not Exploded

why, when I try to hatch something, I get a message saying "Proxy metafile contains bounding box. Not exploded".  Nothing happens until I escape, and then I'm back to where I started with nothing hatched.  I have other drawings xreferenced into mine, but I am not using them as the hatch boundaries.

AutoCAD 2010 :: MTEXT Bounding Box Width With Background Mask

Jun 14, 2012

If I create one MTEXT object with the Background Mask set to Yes, then COPY it to several locations, and lastly edit the text for each one, does the width of the bounding box have to be adjusted for the width on each individual peice of MTEXt, or is there an "autofit" option? 

The Background Masks are either too narrow or too wide on the copied items.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Draw Bounding Box At Current UCS

Oct 16, 2013

The first rectangle is drawn from 0,0 at the World Coordinate System. There is never any trouble with the code below when the objects are drawn at the WCS. The problem is when I try to draw a bounding box around an object while in another UCS. It seems that it always draws the bounding box at the WCS instead of my UCS. I have used (trans <pointlist> 0 1) on all combinations it seems and I still cannot get it to draw the bounding box at the current UCS.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Zoom All & Extents With Blocks Containing Fields On Layout Tabs

Aug 22, 2013

We have a new title block which now contains various fields to automatically populate the drawing number, number of sheets, issue etc.  The problem we have is when we go to zoom all or extents on a layout tab it moves the layout to the right each time.  If we only have one layout or we use a plain title block i.e. with no fields, the zoom works fine (layout stays put in the center).  This is also true if we directly insert a field onto the layout - again no problems. 

The cause of the problem only happens when a block containing a field is inserted onto the paper space of a layout and,there are multiple layouts containing blocks with fields.

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 2D :: Replace Dynamic Blocks With Normal Blocks Based On Parameters

Aug 2, 2012

We used a bespoke program to convert our drawings to Java applets for web usage. This does not cope with dynamic blocks at present and we have started to receive drawings from our clients using them.

I need to replace this with standard static blocks based on one of two criteria. Either:

1) Replace based on visibility state (have generic chair block with multiple different chair types set by visibility type, need to replace depending on which type it is set as)

2) Replace based on parameter (have table with size set by dimensions, need to replace with static block for each dimension)

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Add Exact Same Objects And Visibility State To Blocks

Jan 7, 2014

I have over 100 blocks that I need to add the exact same objects and visibility state to.  Is there a way to globally make this change, or even to copy the visibility states from one block to the next without having to recreate the states in each block?  I thought I had previously run across a routine on here that would make changes to multiple blocks at once, but I can't seem to find it now.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: AttSync Of Blocks - Takes A Long Time With Numerous Objects

May 18, 2012

The AttSync command does what it advertises fairly well.  My problem is that I have thousands of small blocks in a single drawing.  (My current drawing has 2100 block references with four attributes in each one.)  I may change the attribute values in a few of them and need to re-sync the attribute locations.  When I run AttSync it updates every single block insertion.  One of two things are desired:

1)Flag each block insertion as having been sync'ed, reducing the number of objects requiring synchronization when AttSync is called again.  Provide a way to force all to be sync'ed.

2)Allow a selection set in the AttSync command after selecting the block to sync.

Either or both of these would a great time-saver for those of us with large numbers of blocks with attributes.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Exploding Blocks With Negative Values?

Apr 24, 2013

I built a building foundation for a grading plan and I have another building that is the exact mirror of it. I have tried to mirror it. Didn't work. I created a block of the feature lines and inserted it with a -1 x value but I can't explode it. I tried the regular explode and xplode. Neither worked. I can use the the block to draw feature lines over but it just seems so much easier if I could figure out how to explode the block.
