AutoCad 3D :: Separate Polyface Mesh At Particular Point
Jun 8, 2011Here's the file:
[URL].......
I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to separate a Polyface Mesh at a particular point. I would like to use the SLICE command but it's not working. I tried SUBTRACT on the solid but no can do either. Is there a way to do this?
I have a huge structural floorplan, and I want to divide it up into sections so when XREF'ed in my drawing I can load it in piece by piece, saving a huge performance hit.
Illustrator SDK :: How To Determine If Point Is Inside A Closed Path
Mar 20, 2013I am developing a plugin for Illustrator CS5, 6. I have a scenario which requires the plugin to place a text frame inside a closed path art. How can I calculate the proper destination coordinates? The path art can be a curve or a rectangle, any shape. I need to place the text frame inside the path such that no part of the text frame overlaps the boundaries of the path art.
I looked at the forum and found the following thread: [URL] .....
Here, its stated that the method AIPathfinderSuite::DoFrontMinusBackEffect of the API did the required task. I tried the same but couldn't get it to work.
My first preference is to use the Illustrator SDK, not any third party libraries.
AutoCad :: Polyface Mesh To Topographic Map
Mar 13, 2013I have some topography I've converted from SketchUp to .Dwg and I was curious if AutoCad (or any of it's versions) had the capabilities of turning this series of meshes into a run-of-the-mill topographic map. For instance, a standard plan view showing elevation lines at say 2' intervals.
If any of the versions are capable I can definitely get the 30 Day trial and give it a go.
AutoCad 3D :: Polyface Mesh To Solid?
Jul 3, 2012I created a 3D math surface using 3DPLOT. However my outcome is a polyface mesh and I need to convert it to a solid. I have already tried the "Convert to Solid" & "Convert to Surface" options in the Mesh tab but I get "Mesh not converted because it is not closed or it self-intersects." I also tried the f2s.lsp but I am unsure on how to select my object.
Here is my object: [URL]
It is basically a 3D plot of cos(x) + cos(y).

AutoCad :: Export Polyface Mesh Coordinates
Oct 26, 2011I have a series of Polyface meshes imported from a Revit project.
(If this is doable straight from Revit that'd be good too, but I haven't had any success with that)
If I right click on one and select properties, I can clearly see where each vertex has an X, Y, and Z coordinate. For the purposes of a research project, I'd like to be able to automatically export all these coordinates to any ascii format for input into an algorithm. The dataextraction command does not seem to be capable of this and only exports the number of faces and vertices of each mesh.
AutoCad 3D :: Convert Polyface Mesh Into One 3D Face
Jan 21, 2012I have a 3d model of a building and all of the faces of the building are of the type polyface mesh. If I use explode, each polyface mesh gets split into individual 3d faces. But, I'd simply like to replace each polyface mesh with a 3d face (not multiple 3d faces). Is there anyway to do this?
The reason I'm doing this is because I'm importing the building model into ray tracing software, but the software doesn't like the building when the faces are of the type polyface mesh.
AutoCAD Architecture :: Polyface Mesh To Mass Element?
Oct 6, 2008I'm trying to figure out a way to convert a 'Polyface Mesh' into a mass element or some other solid. The Polyface Mesh was created by importing a .3ds model using the '3dsin' command. The .3ds file was created from exporting the model out of Max.

Aug 30, 2013I have a 3D model of a steel construction with the assignment to create special views of it and 2D projections for manufacturing of each beam individually. I tried many commands like Flatshot ( which don't work cause its a complex polyface mesh, and smooth mesh only makes a additionally mess), Flatten with hidden lines ( lines are mixed and changed), the LISP command SUPFLAT, but the hidden lines appear in the projection. SOLVIEW and SOLDRAW create views in the paperspace, which when export as a layout, become a mess too. The Lisp command M2S also does not work.

View 8 Replies View RelatedAutoCad 3D :: Converting Faces To Single Surface (or Polyface Mesh)
Aug 2, 2012I have created a TIN (triangulated irregular network) of an existing survey in my terrain modelling software (12d Model). I am able to export (save-as) the TIN as 3D Face Triangles for opening in AutoCAD (2012) or similar.
My ultimate goal is to create a solid surface in Inventor. The surface has to be seemless (stitched) in order for me to create a new sketch and extrude to this surface. Finally giving me a part in Inventor that represents my ground. I would then want to use the same process to bring into Inventor all other Civil Design works created in 12d Model such as roads, earthworks platforms (including dams) etc.
I've tried stitching (Inventor and Microstation) without success. Inventor keeps crashing and Microstation looses data. AutoCAD (2012) won't let me create a polyface mesh from 3D Faces. I tried doing a mesh, surface union without success. Programs either crash or data is lost.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Cutting A Rectangular Opening In Polyface Mesh Surface
Dec 5, 2012I have a dwg file of a section of a tunnel that has been exported from Microstation as a polyface mesh surface. What I am trying to achieve is cutting a hole into the surface. I am assuming that I cannot cut a surface directly, but need to convert it to a solid first.
I've searched this site and I have tried everything I can think of to no avail. Inventor does not seem to be able to convert the surface to a solid. Also, when I import the surface to Inventor, some of the triangular meshes are not there, and there are too many "holes" to patch them manually. I've also tried using lisps in AutoCAD, but on the surface and 3D faces after exploding it, but for example m2s.lsp or f2s.lsp do not seem to work.
I have also had the same file exported from Microstation as ACIS .sat, but version 18.0 is not readable by Inventor. Is there a way to convert the ASCII file to an older version?
I am using Inventor 2013, and I also have AutoCAD 2013 available.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Explode Window - Block Inside To Origin Point
May 28, 2013when i export (or explode) my plan every window, doors etc... split in more "under-blocks", and that's ok. but i have a problem with the windows: after the explode command, one of the blocks inside (the one that shows the opening side) "jump" in the 0,0,0 coordinates point, but all the others remain in the right position.
PS: i think the problem is not in the window-block, because i tried it in another old file, and it works. and the autocad option are also always the same.

Photoshop :: Way To Have Dynamic Image Inside Vanishing Point Edited Layer?

I only had to right click my layer with dynamic picture, "replace content", and it auto-fills in the other layer with the vanishing point edit.

Apr 9, 2012I have an assembly that has somewhere a hole with a round bar that exactly fits in this hole. But when meshing the assembly, the mesh of the hole and the mesh of the bar are different.
The result is that the different parts do only seem to touch each other at the edges of the mesh, resulting in high stresses.
See picture.
I tried to made a derived part from the assembly, but that one does not finish meshing. After 48 hours, the progress bar is still half way. While the one above did finish in about 15 minutes. What can I do to make the meshes match?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Bold Text Inside Viewport And Slim Text Inside Paperspace?
Feb 8, 2013I have this strange situation.. i use the Arial font inside my cad drawings and when i print my paperspace layout, the text inside the viewport is a little bit more "bold" then the text i put directly on paper space.
Maybe it's a trick to know what text is placed where, but i want all this to be uniform, same thickness. Is there a system variable to correct that issue?
See the image below: It's a 400 DPI scan from an impression i did.
Up to COUPE C1 is the text inside the viewport, under COUPE C1is the paperspace text. Both are the same height... but difference tickness.
Illustrator :: Draw Inside Not Working Inside Expanded Shape
Dec 3, 2010I really enjoy this new draw inside feature in Illustrator. But, I find that it does not always work. It seems to be grayed out sometimes. For example, I have drawn a shape with my Wacom tablet using a blush. I then converted it to a shape instead of keeping it a stroke by expanding it. But it will not allow me to now draw inside of it, even though it is a shape.

Something is going very wrong at this point because I have this ugly shadow line that I cannot get rid of and I also seem to not be able to light this interior, when I use an omni light it makes no difference. Where am I going wrong?
