AutoCAD .NET :: Make Inserted Objects Gripped To Positions Of Existing Entities

Apr 26, 2013

A Leader can be associative if it's drawn to a grip point . Is there a way to make inserted objects gripped to positions of existing entities?

If it's something to do with object overrule then it may be put in the too hard basket.

AutoCad :: How To Make Inserted PDF Opaque So Objects Behind It Don't Show

Sep 30, 2013

I inserted a scanned PDF xref and now I can't get it to plot in a viewport. Is there a way to make the inserted PDF opaque so that objects behind it don't show.

I have two PDFs slightly overlapped, and for some reason all of the areas that are transparent in the PDF print with grey outlines in a PDF, but not when sent to a hard copy printer.

Attached is a screen shot of the issue

AutoCAD .NET :: Block Created And Inserted Shows Text Entities At Origin

Aug 30, 2012

I've written a method that creates a block definition and inserts one instance the newly created block definition.  The block is comprised exclusively of lines and text entities.  When the method is completed, all entities appear correctly on my machine.

However, when other users try to run the routine on their machines, the lines appear correctly but the text entities all appear positioned at the block insertion's origen.  And the other users must manually regen the drawing after the command is run to trigger the text entities to move (or appear to move) into their proper location.

 Though it wasn't necessary on my machine, I tried adding the following line as the last instruction in my command-method:

 _drawing.Editor.Regen();

 But even that last line's programmatically-triggered regen didn't solve the text location issue for my users.  They still have to manually regen.

I also ensured that all (or most) of a test user's system variables were set to the same values that I use (via Express Tools export & import).  But that didn't work either.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Take Two Objects And Swap Their Positions?

Sep 19, 2011

I have been searching for some information on how to pass objects into a function so I can mess with their properties. Somehow I haven't been very successful. Anyway...What I want to do is take two items (light fixtures) and swap their positions on the drawing. It seems like it must be really simple, but I'm just not finding the key puzzle pieces to do it. It seems like if I could figure out how to pull two objects into the function (whether by selecting them and running the function or by selecting them after I run the function) I could very easily save the coordinates of one to variables and then just swap them.

AutoCad :: Make A Block With Date Automatically Inserted?

Jul 31, 2012

see attached block. I would like the current date be present, instead of typing in the date for this block. When I insert "IFC" block, I would like todays date to be inserted automatically. I guess I am asking if you can make smart blocks in autocad 2009? Let me know if I'm not asking this question correctly.

Paint.NET :: Make Same Copied Patter Copied In Different Positions In Circle

Mar 18, 2012

I' only trying to create a logo for a project of mine.

This logo is composed by two things: the first one is the picture of the logo itself, than the second is the text part (which is not the hardest thing to do).

What I'm trying to do is, once have drown the "subject" (a light blue drop, in my case), to copy and paste it in order to have other four copies of the same drop, but moved and rotated to create something like a circle..

You can find the original logo I created attached. But I'm not really satisfied with it (this is also why I'm writing here!) =)

I'd like to re-create it and put the drops as in the attached logo....

AutoCAD 2010 :: Moving Existing Drawing Objects To Snap Grid?

Dec 22, 2012

I have a slightly unusual query that I can't seem to find a solution for elsewhere. I have an existing OS plan that is 'off grid', and would like to adjust the vertices at the ends of all the existing lines and polylines so that they all sit on a grid point. Is there a quick command or script that does this?

3ds Max :: Separate Objects To Make Them Individual Objects?

Apr 28, 2013

how to edit revit objects in 3dsMax. How do I separate objects to make them individual objects? In other words, when I try to select the roof, I get ALL objects that are "dimensional lumber" i.e. I joists, roof, fascia, etc.

I tried selecting a roof polygon and making a copy and editing it but still when I apply materials to this polygon they apply to all of the dimensional lumber. Probably because I made a copy as a clone but it didn't give me the "copy" option.

I am having trouble having objects set to 'Phase Created' = Existing to show a desired material.  They are all a dark grey.
 
I have gone into 'Manage', and "Phases" under 'Phasing', and under the tab, 'Graphic Overrides', changed 'Material' for 'Existing to "Phase - New".  But this did not change anything.
 
Where else does this get changed?

GIMP :: How To Make Another Ellipse Within Existing One And Of Different Color

Dec 20, 2013

I am trying to color a sketch I made and have thus far (successfully??) created a white background, an ink layer and a color layer. They are in multiply mode. The file I am working with is not GIF or JPEG, it's XCF.

Color is set to 100%, mode is normal. And yes, the image mode IS set to RGB.

I had selected a small color palette and filled an ellipse shape with it. Fine so far. I wanted to make another ellipse within this one and make it a different color. This did not work. I don't know how many options I tried, incl. exiting the program and starting again, to no avail. Somehow (how this worked) ONE additional color worked (very similar to the first). But no black, for example, no green, nothing.

Yesterday I finished a picture (my first attempt using GIMP or any software, at least for art) and I was super happy with the result. It's not working.

AutoCad 2D :: Plotting Points As Geographical Positions In LT?

Mar 4, 2011

I am plotting geographical positions as "Points" in Autocad LT 2007. Using an Excel spreadsheet, I take a Lat and Long, convert to a UTM grid, then apply a "false origin" to make the numbers more manageable. (2 or 3 digits rather than 6). Then copy and paste to Autocad and use the POINT command to plot them all at once. This works fine but what I would really like to be able to do is to copy a text label across at the same time, to label each point with a description

If not, can I assign a label to a point one by one?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Wire Going Around Sheave In Different Positions

Jan 4, 2013

I'm working on constructions that are operated with winches. However, I haven't found a way to model the wire so that it moves as it should.

I've attached a simplifed assembly that illustrates my issue.

In the "Master" position the wire looks as it should.

However, in the "Up" position, the wire does not. (red line indicates desired wire path)

I'm not interested in making the wire slack, just to have straight lines and radiuses around the sheave.

The actual constructions are much more complex, with 15+ sheaves and the wire moving in all three dimensions, not just in one plane as in the attached example. So a simple extrude cut on the assembly would not work.

I need the wire to work in the various set positions ("Master", "Up" & "Halfawy up") on an assebly level, so that it can be shown on drawings.

Optimally I'd love it to work in the "Flexible" position, so that it automatically adjusts (in real-time) as I move the rod, but it's not a requirement.

I've found multiple videos on Youtube showing something similar to what I want to accomplish, but no description of how it's done. Examples:

Inventor Simulation - Pulley and Cable.wmv

Winch - Autodesk Inventor (the wire being spooled onto the winch is not required, but it does look nice)

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Plotting Maps And Having Relative Positions Move

Jan 11, 2011

I use FDO to connect to an image (NAIP TIF obtained from USGS Seamless Server) and other shape files we created using GPS surveying.  I also have contours in the drawing created in Civil 3D and a polygon property boundary from the land surveyor.  When viewed in model space everything is very reasonably aligned to the NAIP aerial image.

When I plot the drawing (tried DWG to PDF, our office copier, and a HP DJ500) the map data has shifted relative to the aerial image.  The shift is visually quite large.  It almost appears that the drawing layers are translated and rotated relative to the aerial photograph.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create All New Existing Surface Over Existing Ground

Sep 28, 2012

I'm trying to create an all new existing surface over existing ground. I have a TIN surface of the EG, and I have drawn overlay splines that describe the new surface, but how to go about creating that design surface.

It is a compound surface, open on one end and closed all around on the other, somewhat like a half of a football stadium, but with an irregular upper edge because I am needing to figure out cuts and fills to manipulate the EG into this new surface without costly major terraforming. There is about 40-50' vertical elevation between the "field" and the upper rim with a generally constant 7-10 deg. slope all around. I'm just at a loss to figure out how to approach this project, and am quite new to Civil 3D.

AutoCad 3D :: Make Two Objects Twist Around Each Other (2011)

I’ve attached an image of what I'm trying to create in 3D .I can make two straight prongs with no problem, but I can’t figure out how to get them to twist around each other as they are in the picture. It’s important that the two prongs are symmetrical and do not merge into one another where they twist.
