Is it possible to find from which linetype file(acad.lin or acadiso.lin) , the existing linetype definitions (CENTER2) are loaded to the current drawing.
We have drawings, some of the linetype definitions are loaded from acad.lin.
Need to reload the linetypes from acadiso.lin.
How can I copy a linetype definition from a drawing to the linetype definition file?
View 7 Replies View RelatedCopy of a SHX file called SUPERSUB.SHX? It's causing havoc on my drawings. Explain the difference between a font and a big font or SHX to a big font?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working in a drawing that was my coworkers baby, but she went on vacation. It has a font style called "HOLLOW" that references a font name called "SWISS742C.shx". That .shx file was not in any of my Support File Search Path directories, so I found the folder that contained that .shx file on our network drive and referenced it in Options > Files > Support File Search Path. Everything I googled said that is what I should do.
However, the "SWISS742C.shx" file still does not show up in my styles dialog box under font name. I have regened, quit autocad and reopened, and I cannot find it.
When a new Civil3D file is created, there are some blocks available for insertion when I type "Insert". So these are the preloaded blocks defined by Civil3D. I was wondering if I can define my own blocks and have them automatically loaded when creating a new file?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have a Custom CUI Enterprise file that we load in the profile settings (AutoCAD 2008). I transferred it though the CUI Editor and saved it for AutoCAD 2012. When I load it into AutoCAD 2012, the pull down custom pull down menu does not show, with or without the menu bar turned on. I have some partial CUI files that I did the same way. When I load them, and list them in the Main CUI file as such, they show up as expected. I even tried to list the Custom CUI Enterprise file in the same manor, but I get a "read only" type message and it still doesn't show the pull down.
I also thought about transferring it to another CUI file to partial load and not have a Custom CUI Enterprise file.

How to compile a "master" .shp file that would include the coding for all of my shape files for custom linetypes. I did this years ago for a specific set of linetypes but I can not remember how I did it.
I know ACAD has the linetype.shp file that includes coding for ACAD supplied custom linetypes.
I think I remember inserting all of the shapes into a drawing and somehow compiling the *.shp file. Is that how it is done?
I loaded a linetype (.lin file) in ACAD 2010 and it came out wrong. I would like to permanently remove it from ACAD(where it cant be seen when you go to load another type of line), how do you do that?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've got a linetype that's part of our autocad template file and has been for so long that nobody around here even knows where the original line file is.
I need to extract the linetype out so that I can make some minor modifications. I did do a search and found a nifty lsp routine from Paul Turvill. (Here's the thread that pointed me there: [URL] ..........
I ran it and it SEEMED to work. All the linetypes in the file it created look good EXCEPT for the one I needed to extract. That one looks like this in the line file:
*TREELINE,Series of arcs used to indicate tree drip lines
A,0.0001,-0.0001,
The linetype DOES display properly in the dwg file (meaning lines drawn using it look good).
“Linetype” file” and “measurement” value are not listed in the properties pane..I’m wondering why the AutoCAD
doesn’t show the “linetype” file (acad.lin/acadiso.lin) from which a particular linetype is takendoesn’t show the “measurement” value (0 or 1) when a particular object is drawn Why these properties are not set on the property pane?
It seems to work. How un-Corel-like.
CGSX5 on i3 PC, Win 7, 6G RAM.
The version that came with X4 worked in XP, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 it wouldn't install Type 1 fonts, and it wouldn't install any missing fonts when a file loaded. I buy Font Expert, though I never got it to work as well as the old FN.
But my new (trial) version of X5 has a version of the utility (v. 6.0.0, build 108) that seems to work just fine both ways. Thats a wonderful. When did this happen? There's a noticeable difference in the versions, according to xplorer2. X4's version:
and X5's:
I can no longer load X4's version; only v. 6.0.0 comes up, so I can't compare. But FN now works properly in X4, too, so Corel must have done something to address this. Cool.
in CS6 illustrator when we open file we get message " font Missing" but fonts are loaded.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat the maximum size xml file one can use when making data driven graphics in Illustrator?
I can successfully batch when I load a single variable library with about 100 datasets at one time but anything much larger than that in the same xml format gives me a “the incoming variable library is invalid” error. Elsewhere on this discussion forum I have seen answers say there is no limit to the size of the XML file. [URL]..... But my experience with Illustrator CS5 says otherwise.
1. If there is a maximum size either in file size, number of datasets, or number of variables/values, what the limit is.
2. I still need to create thousands of the final document I am creating - if the limit is close to 100 and I need to create many thousands - scripting or other methods to get this done?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a question about etransmitting. I etransmitted a file, including the font files, as a zip file. I extracted the files and opened the dwg file. The zip file contains the shx file I need, but it is not loaded in my drawing. I was under the impression that extracting an etransmitted zip file automatically loaded the font files into the drawing. Is this wrong? Does the recipient of the etransmitted file have to add the path of the font shx file in Options?

Using AutoCAD 2014 v1.18.0.0
I never do any in depth changes to my cui. It won't load ribbons or panels because it claims that my cui file is removed, renamed, or missing. It is not, I can specify it in the AutoCAD options (the second picture link). But when I type in cui, It gives me the error message (the first picture link). I've restarted and it does nothing. I've verified that the acad.cuix file is there... and it is (aka not removed, renamed, or missing so the error is bogus) The only strange thing I found though was that when I do a cui load, I can browse to the file, select it, but when I click to load, nothing happens. No hourglass cursor, no hiccup, not anything. If I repeat the same process with a different cui file, it works as it should. URLs...
View 4 Replies View RelatedOne of our AutoCAD drawings circa 1990 on only one of our machines (our newest, 64-bit, Win 7, see more specs in attachment) opened only partially in ACAD 2008. If saved in this state, the drawing permanently loses whatever information was not loaded, so I’m pretty sure it’s not a display issue. All of our other machines are much, much older, running Windows XP Prof, none of them have exhibited this phenomenon. It happened regardless of whether the file was on the hard drive or on the server. Any way to fix this so that 2008 works correctly on this machine with all drawings. BTW, this did not happen with two drawings dated 1989.

I have a strange problem with some xrefs and I don't know why it is suddenly happening on a few of my drawings.
The xrefs have been successfully loaded in my drawings with no issues until now.
I have an xref that is loaded as an overlay, in the xref manager it is there yet in the drawing it is invisible.
Yet if I click in some blank space on where the xref should be it appears visible and then disappears as soon as I escape!
I know it's loaded - its just as if it's loaded behind everything else and it makes the geometry in the drawing all jagged and out of sorts ?!
I've tried bring to front command and detaching and reloading it but to no avail.
As a part of an other recent topic (Interop 32/64 COM - Acad Mechanical),In VB.NET, how can I easily be sure to be in a Mechanical AutoCAD with every specific interfaces loaded (SymBBAuto, AcadmAuto...)?

Did Autodesk install a virus that deletes the Ribbon after a predefined number of uses? It doesn't make any difference which workspace is invoked it is not there. In Document it is just completely gone and typing ribbon at the command line brings up the "This Ribbon..." as is the case in all the other workspaces. How does this happen?
