AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Creating New Drawing With Specific Template

Sep 20, 2013

I have some code that starts a new drawing with a specific template from a lisp routine

(defun ghd:load_newdwg (template / ae-acad-object newdwg)
  (setq ae-acad-object (vlax-get-acad-object))
  (setq newdwg (vla-add (vla-get-documents ae-acad-object) template))
  (vla-put-activedocument ae-acad-object newdwg)
)

The template location and file is stored in variable clienttemplate (and is not the standard template path set under options). All works okay except if I close the new drawing, when I return to the previous drawing that was current when the new drawing was created (i.e. the drawing that the routine was run from). I get the following error:

Command: ; error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)
; error: Unknown exception occurred
; warning: unwind skipped on unknown exception

I assume this has something to do with the original routine not closing/finishing before switching to the new drawing. This is the last line of the routine:

(cond ((= startnewdwg 1) (ghd:load_newdwg clienttemplate)))

AutoCAD Inventor :: VBA Replace Title Block Definitions In Drawing From Template File

May 7, 2013

I have some code to replace the current title block with a title block from a template file. I just don't like how it adds a new title block definition named "copy of titleblock". I'd like to delete or replace the current title block definition so only the newly added one is listed.

 Sub test() Dim odrawdoc As DrawingDocument Set odrawdoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument If (odrawdoc.DocumentType <> kDrawingDocumentObject) Then Exit Sub Dim oTemplate As DrawingDocument Dim oSourceTitleBlockDef As TitleBlockDefinition Dim oNewTitleBlockDef As TitleBlockDefinition Dim oSheet As Sheet Set oTemplate = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(ThisApplication.FileOptions.TemplatesPath & "template.idw", False) Set oSourceTitleBlockDef = oTemplate.ActiveSheet.TitleBlock.Definition Set oNewTitleBlockDef = oSourceTitleBlockDef.CopyTo(odrawdoc) ' Iterate through the sheets. For Each oSheet In odrawdoc.Sheets oSheet.Activate oSheet.TitleBlock.Delete Call oSheet.AddTitleBlock(oNewTitleBlockDef) Next oTemplate.CloseEnd Sub

 I'm just being picky at this point, but I don't want a buildup of title block definitions. We reuse drawings all the time which is why a simple method of updating a title block would be nice. I can just imagine in some years time after a title block update or two there are 20 "copy of copy of copy of .................. titleblock" listed in a drawing file.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copy Drawing Views To New Drawing Template

Sep 20, 2013

I've recently made a new drawing template with ilogic prompts for entering data for all fields within the template. It also sets view sizes etc.  I have lots of master drawings, which are reused when sizes etc change for a contract, which i would like to transfer to this new template. Drawing Resource Transfer Wizard does not offer this function.

I could get all drawings in a folder copied to specific sheet size on the master template.As the template will probably be developed further in the future I'm very loathed to do this take manually.

AutoCAD .NET :: Creating A New Layout From A Template?

Jun 28, 2012

I have a small project that I'm working on that inserts a new layout based on a user selected  template size (A, B, C or D sizes). I need the program to insert the layout along with the titleblock geometry from the existing A, B, C, or D dwt files.

I know how to add a new blank layout. However, I'm having some trouble determing how to insert the titleblock geomtry. I've read a number of posts on here related to layouts, and while they were informative, none of them covered exactly what I need to do.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating IDW Template

Jan 6, 2014

I'm recently using inventor a lot. But now IM try to make a .IDW template with my own line styles and thickness and stuff. This is what I do:

I open an exciting IDW file. I go to manage and click style editor. Then I create a new style. Called test style.  I make sure I activate my new style and I go to layers, where I change the line weight from 0.51mm to 0.25 mm (example)

I save my change and close style editor... After that I save my copy as template (called test 6-1) and close the drawing. I open inventor and create a new file. Select the template I created. I get this style conflict.... I don't fully understand this error... How can I fix this problem?

When my new template opens, I check the line weight by the style editor but the weight detente change... Its still 0.51 mm.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating A New Template

May 23, 2013

Is there anything wrong with creating a new template this way:

1. Create a new model for a new client.
2. Create new drawing based on the standard template.
3. Bring in model views and create new title block, notes, symbols, etc. specific to new client.
4. Save drawing as a client specific template in my template directory.
5. Open new client template and erase all drawing views but leave notes, symbols, title block, etc.
6. Save.

The question is, doing it this way, will it cause problems? Will the drawing views somehow still be linked to the template? Should I erase the drawing views BEFORE saving as a template? Is there a better way ti create a template?

AutoCad :: Creating Custom Sheet Set Template

Jul 2, 2012

What I am trying to do is create a custom sheetset template that will have ALL my sheets embedded, that way all my notes, details and sheets will always be ready. I would just need to update some text and details from time to time.

These are the steps that I have taken

Created a new sheetset and called it Sheetset Template
In this sheetset template, I created all my sheets and inserted notes/details.

At this point I thought all I would need to do is copy the sheetset file and all by sheets would get copied too, but that was not the case, just the sheetset file was copied and I have to create all the sheets again.

AutoCad :: Insert Template To A Drawing

Nov 29, 2012

I've created a set of templates, A3, A2, A1 A0 etc.

When I open the .dwt at A0 it is fine, the correct dimensions for A0, everything is how it should be.

Now, when I'm in a drawing and go on the tabs, right click, "From Template", select the A0 template and it opens a new tab as normal.

However, the paper size is correct, A0. But the actual frame with the attributes is very small in the cornet, about 25 times smaller, so I'm thinking units, mm to inches, but all the INSUNITS are set to 6.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Objects (Feature Lines / Grading) With Naming Template Query

Jun 26, 2012

When creating Feature Lines, I wanted them to be e.g. Step Line 1, Step Line 2, Step Line 3 etc so I amended the name template to suit. I created multiple from objects and the naming convention worked. If I did features individually (as I wanted certain ones in certain sites) it worked for the first feature but reverted back to the default Feature line name on subsequent entry to the dialog i.e. it had "forgotten" the template name just set.

Am I missing something to get this to work correctly or is this how it's supposed to work i.e. useless for individual feature line creation?? This also happens for gradings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Template Objects

Jun 21, 2013

On my company's default drawing template, I have a text block on there with some drawing notes. We often edit some of the notes on the end at each drawing so I didn't create it on the "title block" layer, rather it's on the "top" layer. I also added (in the template) a revision table with Rev. A being "Released for Production" (because we are weird). How can I constrain those on the sheet so when I change sheet size, they stay in the same position relative to the corners of the sheet?
