AutoCAD .NET :: Locating All JPG References?
Dec 31, 2013
[URL] How-to-programmatically-find-all-references-xref-dwg-jpg-pdf-OLE/m... I have a jpg file that I needed to apply some transparency to and saved it as a png file. I now want to delete the jpg file from the folder but it's being referenced in several drawings, and I don't know which ones. Is there a way to reverse the function of Reference Manager (perhaps with a different app), ie find all the drawing files that reference my jpg file

I run into the problem where I copy from one project to the next to save time, also from templates and what not. Well there isn't really a uniform nature to my drawings as i started doing them under necessity rather design.
So, i try to delete duplicate layers.. or Layer's and it continues to give me errors... stating every time:
The following layers cannot be deleted:
Layers 0 and Defpoints
The current layer
Layers containing objects
Xref-dependent layers
Well, its not Layer 0 or Def Points, Its not the current layer and i even deleted all pages except the one mandatory and CTRL+A - DEL... Zoom extents on model and do the same thing, and i cannot get rid of the layer....
How do i get rid of the pesky layers? Can i type a command that changes all XXXX layer to XXX layer and can dump the ones into such as "0" layer and be unconcerned about it freeing it up to delete the unwanted un used layer?

I can't seem to locate the 0,0 (ORIGIN) in Model space.
SCENARIO 1:
I create a line > specify second pt to 0,0 > Enter = NADA
SCENARIO 2:
Create a Line > Select Line > Move to 0,0 = NADA
HOWEVER, If i create something, use COPY BASE command, and and specify 0,0 --> PASTE into new drawing with 0,0 as insertion point, it can locate it... so it's there.... i just can't find it.

Any way to locate where text styles are located within a drawng. I am creating templates and some text styles are being carried from one template to another when I create them and I would like to delete certain text styles. I have looked around the drawing, but cannot seem to locate them.

In a 2D drawing I want to arrange model space objects in a pviewport such that a specific model space point is in the center of the pviewport. I'm manipulating the pviewport properties to try to accomplish this. To have the view perpendicular to the model space XY plane, I've set the pviewport direction property at 0,0,1 and am varying the arrangement of model space objects with the pviewport target property.
When doing this by hand, I use the DVIEW command and the POints option to set the camera and target. The model space point I want in the center of the pviewport is 16.25,11.5,0. In the DVIEW command, POints option, I set target to 16.25,11.5,0 and camera to 16.25,11.5,1.
When attempting to do this with a macro I'm not finding any obvious correlation between the pviewport target property setting and the location of the desired model space point. Below are the lines to set the target property in a pviewport called PVPort created in previous steps. When I set the target property to 0,0,0, the model space point 45.3541, 17, 0 is in the center of the pviewport. When I set the target property to 16.25,11.5,0, the model space point 61.6041,28.5,0 is in the center of the pviewport.
If the pviewport has a twist angle of a scale not 1.0 (and therfore a different model space point I'm wanting in the center of the pviewport), it gets more confusing.
Dim VPP(0 to 2) as Double
VPP(0) = 0: VPP(1) = 0: VPP(2) = 0
PVPort.Target = VPP

I had some inaccurate survey points in my EG. Now I have new points and breaklines. How to locate thes old breaklines either within the list or visually within my surface editing / style.
The zoom to doesn't work as there are many breaklines within the zoom extents, and 1000's of breaklines to sift through. Is there a setting somewhere in the surface where i can turn on the breaklines that have been added already to something that's visible so i can delete those out of my surface?
I'm looking for anything on this one. (Not the obvious answers thought). Delete all and replace all (not happening).

I'd like to place a point at a specific "Z" level on a line. The line is not perpendicular to the x~y plane. On the attached .dwg, say @ z+.750 on one of the angled lines on the "constraints" layer.

I am currently updating a title block and it will be wider than the original. This is going to cause me to move the block.
How do I get it constrained back into the lower right hand corner? I wouldnt think this would be this difficult of a thing to accomplish.

I am wanting a piece of info that I cannot seem to locate in the spur gear generator. I will post a picture when I have a chance, but what I am looking for is the 'W' figure (distance over 'x' number of teeth at the pitch line). What I have is a 19.xxx deg. helical gear so the best way to get this info is calculate it, but again, I dont see it in the inventor calculation.

I'm having trouble finding a system variable.
I have blocks in a drawing that were made using the 'retain' method. WHen I go to insert the block I cannot see the block preview at the crosshair cursor. The block only becomes visible once I have clicked the left mouse key at the insertion point.
This means I can't rotate it either as I can't see it until I have clicked to place it.
Which system variable (And what setting) will allow me to see the block as I'm inserting it?

I have a block of two bent steel plates that are bolted together.. Everything works just how i need except the "limits" on the connecting bolt assembly. The plates we use are slotted, and depending on the angle of the bend, the range the bolt can be in changes. I can set a distance parameter on one clip or the other, but have no way of linking the two. I have a trig function i could use if you could put one with variables in the min or max of a dimension, or i think i could do it if i could limit a point to stay on a line. I can put a coincident constraint on it, but the point will go past the line infinitely, if that makes sense. Relatively new to these blocks, and self-taught as it is.

How accurate is the Document Properties information. I have several files that report containing various fonts only I can't find the fonts in the documents. What's the best way of locating particular fonts within documents. The Find dialogue is tedious to use given that we need to manually move from one page to another. Is there an alternative?

I seem to have accidentally animated Exposure Value (located within the Exposure Control).
I don't know how to eliminate the animation and even though I try to manually reset the Exposure Value by turning of Autokey and then setting Exposure Value to the setting I want, I keep encountering a persistence of the animation.
What I mean is that I might reset the Exposure Value to zero, but then when I scrub the track, the Exposure value starts to change. I cannot figure out how to fix this as no matter where I reset the Exposure Value, when I scrub back and forth on the track, the Exposure Value changes to other values...
I've tried looking in the Curve Editor, but haven't been able to find keys. I also don't see any keys in the track.

I somehow renamed my Lightroom Images folder. All the images are now under a new name that Lightroom does not recognize. When I go through the regular steps of "Locating the missing images", I seem to be able to do it one image at a time.

I need locating the missing files within lightroom. When I click on the question mark to locate the files, it opens up a window and I click locate, and then the files are no longer there. This happens even on files that I have not moved out of lightroom. How can I make all of my files appear as they used to?

There are no Smart albums displayed. nor is 'create new smart album' displayed as an available option when I click on the + Album button. When I try to create a new album 'last 6 months' (which I know was pre-created as a smart album in a previous version of element) a warning message that this album already exists is displayed, but I can find no way to locate this smart album or create a new smart album? Is my newly downloaded Elements 11 corrupted in some way, or are the smart albums just hidden and need making visible in some way?

I needed to use an xref so loaded up the external references box to view all available xrefs. Since i did this i cant get rid of the xref box. Its there whenever i load cad up, load a new drawing and when switching clean screen on and off. Ive tried the close button in the top corner but it still returns.

I want to load the external references in the drawing, how to implement this program?
I returned to the drawing path and the way I want to load it using the insertion point.The code error is probably somewhere not understand where.

I have a recurring problem that I can't seem to figure out. I have my existing grade TIN surface as a data shortcut into my roadway design file, but it sometimes will not update when opening the drawing. The surface profile will not display until the surface is manually synced. Any labels that are associated with that surface (or other object) will just display the ??? because it can't seem to connect to the data. After a manual sync it seems to come back.

I was able to take the attributes from block references in independent .dwg files and and bring them across to a new drawing via import. At this point, there are a few attributes that I would like to be able to add to each block reference once it's created. I've designed a GUI where users can input data, and this input (string data) I'd like to add to the block reference as a tag and a corresponding value.
The basics I understand are to create an attribute reference object. Set the properties / parameters for this object (tag and value (originally as a string) and them append the attribute to the block reference. What i don't know how to do is to actually create the new tags and values in the code so that they can later be appended. I'm in C# and so far i've got this:
foreach (ObjectId id in blockBtr)
{
if (id.ObjectClass == RXClass.GetClass(typeof(AttributeDefinition)))
{

Whenever I use "attachimage" within a drawing, I specify relative path. I would assume that if I open the file on another computer, AutoCAD would be able to find the image as long as it is in the same folder as the DWG file. This is never the case. I always get an error message stating that the reference is missing and it asks if I want to update its location. What good is specifying a relative path then? I'm using AutoCAD 2010.

I have recently configured various borders for our Inventor software and have now turned to AutoCAD to do the same.
Within Inventor you can specify grid references around the border. eg A-F along the top and 1-5 on the vertical. Can this be done with AutoCAD 2011????

ACA2011.I've got a construct that for some reason has 2 xrefs listed within it that I can't detach. It says that it is unresolved and when I try to detach it it says "c_Floor Plan - First" has multiple references, Not detached." This is one of two xrefs in the drawing doing this...how is it possible to have an xref of the same name in the drawing? I can't figure out how to detach it. It was causing problems in the view to which it was referenced, and I solved it by creating a bogus, blank construct called "test" and changed the path of the xref in the construct to this drawing...but I still can't detach it.

Possible to open a drawing that was created with AutoCad Civil3D 2011 and create all of your Civil objects and data references if it is a bad idea to then open it at a later date in AutoCad Civil as Autocad 2011. Does this effect any of the data in the drawing. It has been recommended here that we do this for making minor line/text edits as some folks have slower computers that cant handle the civil side of the program.
why we are constantly facing corrupt drawing files that lose references.

Is there a procedure or command to use on an opened drawing to see if the drawing is used as an external reference anywhere else? For example, can I open Drawing A and determine whether it is used as an external reference in Drawing B without going to Drawing B and looking at the external references palette?

So we are wanting to send on a model to a customer. I have used pack and go with the following settings:
Copy to Single Path
Model Files Only
When I try and open the newly created files, it gives a bunch of error messages looking for FEA files, as well as missing some OLE links, which is good as I don't want to send on any FEA information with the model, but is there a way to strip that out completely from the model without having to go through each individual file and deleting all of the simulations?
