AutoCAD .NET :: Does IntersectWith Work In Paperspace
Apr 17, 2012I am not having any luck getting intersectwith working in paperspace? I'm not trying to intersect with objects in model space, just all objects in paperspace.

View 2 RepliesDoes IntersectWith work with 2011? If not what is the fix? Apparently I cannot find the apparent intersection point of two lines.
If I try to use IntersectWith, I get an error that it is obsolete.
I am working in Civil 2012, and i want to have a label to display a measurement in inches on a customizeable titleblock border. The border itself is a dynamic block.
I seem to have succesfully created a label in the label style composer, unfortunatley it doesn't want to work in paperspace? All my labels get sent into model space? It is safe to say the label works, it just doesn't want to stay in my Layout tab?
I tried to copy some mtext from a different Paperspace and pasted into new drawing (on paperspace) but no text appear while all the layers are turned on. Below pic ask for specific inserting point, i just specified on the screen but won't work. I opened new blank autocad drawing and tried to paste on paper space now it works.

I'm currently using Autocad 2013, and I need to use the function intersectWith with 2 surfaces. The message i get is "Not yet implemented".
If this function is working in Autocad 2014?
C#, AutoCAD 2010.
I normally use a database transaction to create temporary drawing Lines when I need to do any intersections. But I decided to try virtual Geometry Line2d instead. Intersecting Line2d with other Line2d objects. But I do not understand the Tolerance input. I definitely need it - without it all the line2ds are intersecting even when they actually don't.
I need getting the crossing point for a survey figure relative to an alignment. I'm trying to use the IntersectWith on my active alignment. I'm able to see my figure in debug mode so, I think I've got access to each survey figure. I think I need to cast the figure as a com object to a acad entity using directcast, but that's where it's going bad. When using the ofigure.GetObjectId it returns an integer value and it fails in VS Express 2010 in the DirectCast when trying to pass the objectId.
The error (if I'm setting this up correctly) :integer cannot be converted to objectid
'Get figure crossing point Dim ofigures As AeccSurveyFigures = oSurveyProject.Figures 'Dim figEnt As Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Entity Dim intPoint As New Point3dCollection() For i = 1 To ofigures.Count - 1 Dim ofigure As AeccSurveyFigure = ofigures.Item(i) Dim figObjectId = ofigure.GetObjectId Dim figEntity As Autodesk.AECC.Interop.Survey.AeccSurveyFigure = DirectCast(m_trans.GetObject(figObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead), Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Entity) m_alignment.IntersectWith(figEntity, Intersect.OnBothOperands, intPoint, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero) Next
I am having problems Xref ing a drawing of my new title block to paperspace. The plan is to try and have it as the default title block whenever I select to layout a drawing
View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to put some blocks in a key (on a TitleBlock, in PaperSpace). I have imported my garden as an Xref - does the access to those blocks not come too? And if not, how do I import them - or do I have to open the Xref and copy each over individually?
View 3 Replies View RelatedFor those who are using paperspace and want to dimension your modelspace 3D part.
1. Create a new dimstyle called 3D Standards (copy from your already standard dimstyle), the only thing you are going to change is the text alignment, change it to align with dimension lines.
2. In modelspace use your 3 point UCS and select 3 points on part how dim. will lay. So, if you need to dim. top, then pick 3 points on top, ect...
3. Change the dimscale to reflect the same scale as the viewport.
4. When finished dimensioning your part, select (Changespace) and select all dimensions (if you want all your dimensions to be in paperspace.
A file created over a year ago (I believe with AutoCAD 2010) is needing to be updated. I have AutoCAD 2012 and when I open it there is no text in my Paper Space. However, if my manager is to open the same exact file with his AutoCAD 2012 he can clearly see all of the text is still in place. Is there a setting somewhere that I have missed that may be making the text not show up? All layers are on and visible.

I'm trying to plot a drawing and my icons have disappeared.
Did I press something inadvertantly, where have they gone?
I'm writing an essay with pics and so luckily I have a scren-grab to show you...
And what happened next...
I've worked on a command that automatically imports a dwg into paperspace and positions it. I've just realized that when imported vertically, the titleblock is on the wrong side of the layout. I've imported it to (10,10,0) and would like to import to those exact opposite co-ordinates to essentially flip it but i'm a bit unclear as to how. I know that I can use the commands Database.PextMax and Database.PextMin to determine the max and min points of the primary layout, but what co-ordinates are these, are they the top right corner and bottom right corner.
For what it's worth, here's my routine:
string dwgName = HostApplicationServices.Current.FindFile(comp, acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Database, FindFileHint.Default);
Database db1 = new Database(false, false);
db1.ReadDwgFile(dwgName, System.IO.FileShare.Read, true, "");
ObjectId BlkId;
BlkId = doc.Database.Insert(dwgName, db1, false);
BlockTable bt = (BlockTable)tr.GetObject(doc.Database.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead, true);

when it comes to viewports in paperspace in 2013, due to the nature of my work i have several layout drawings all drawn on top of each other and all with ther own txt and dims etc, which again is all on top of each other making it impossible to work in model space, for this reason i work in paperspace within a viewport but now i have upgraded to 2013 while i am in mid command e.g. dimension and zoom into first point then zoom back out and in again to second point, by this time i have been kicked out of the viewport and just in paperspace so cant complete the command, doesnt always happen?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhilst dimensioning in paperspace I dont seem to be able to get the dimesions to sit above the drawing in model space. for example if I place a leader across the drawing to a specific point the leader sits under the drawing and is lost/hidden. how I set the dimensions to sit above the drawing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I make a layout with a part of my drawing in a viewport, I switch over to paperspace to draw dimension lines in it. Although the layout is displayed in another scale (e.g. 1:100) it puts the right dimensions at the drawing.
But now a problem appears:
With one of my drawings the layout does not put the right dimensions at the drawing in paperspace. I really don't know what went wrong. Strange dimensions appear, as if there must be a strange scale factor somewhere. (Dimlfac=1)
I am having difficulties with the scale of my drawing. In my model space, the units are set to decimal - millimeters. And then, when I set up a viewport in paper space even 1/128"=1'-0" is too small. I'm using a size 24"x36" paper. Everything is set to 1:1 and I drew 1:1 in model space. Previously, another person drew this drawing and it fit on an 8x11 sheet of paper at 1:10, but mine doesn't fit on 24x36.What did I do wrong?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen using dimensions in paperspace i get the paperspace distances. Not those of the object i've drawn in model space.
f.e.: if i draw a line of 100 mm in model, and my zoom e on it in a viewport of 420, I'll get the distance 420. Like the dimension is not interacting with the model, see? Thought it would have something to do with the snapping, but can't find the link.
Viewport. I have scaled the viewport to 1/16 in paperspace, but the drawing is to large and does not fit in the viewport I need to zoom in to make it fit.

I have lost all my objects in paperspace . The layers for the objects are still there, my viewport is there and working just can't see the border.
this problem is keeping coming back. Working Autocad 2010 on windows xp.
Using R14 I am unable to print leaders in paperspace. I have created the leaders so they go from one view to the other. They show up fine in the drawing but will not print. How do I get them to show like they are in the paperspace when they print?

I have placed another smaller viewport over the larger vp in order to show a scaled-up detail of the floorplan.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIn paperspace I set the viewport scale to 1-1/2"=1'-0" on a ANSI D-size plot. But when plotted at (layout) 1:1, it comes out to be 1/8"=1'-0" on a engineering scale.
Explain Autodesk's logic?
We do a lot of labeling in paper space and have been encountering a problem with our dimension command mislabeling lengths and widths. Please see attached DWG. The road width should be 24' and its labeling it 880'. BUT measuring hoizontally it seemed to work fine. Really strange.
I am using the dimension command and snapping nearest and perpendicular. If I just click without using osnap it seems to work.
We tried using the DIM / DIMFLAC / V / and selectiong viewport
The funny thing is that I dont have this problem with every drawing. Just some seem to have this glitch.
