AutoCAD .NET :: Overrule Attributes (properties) For Complex Objects

Jan 6, 2013

I am about to write the function using Overrule API to temporary override object’s colour to ByLayer for all entities in the drawing.

At this moment I just have simple class for testing (just to check if it is possible) and so far I can see problem with complex entities.

Entities such as Line, Polyline even BlockReferences work fine  but complex objects like HATCH, MTEXT and LEADER do not change colour as set in SetAttribute method.

Below is simple class I was testing.

public class ByLayerColorOverrule : DrawableOverrule
{
public override bool WorldDraw(Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.Drawable drawable, Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.WorldDraw wd)
{
base.WorldDraw(drawable, wd);
return true;
}

[code]....

AutoCad :: Attributes Not Displaying In Properties Tab Or Quick Properties

Jun 11, 2013

I finally got some Lisp scripts working. They generate a block library from a CSV file. The script reads the file, and generates a simple rectangular block based on dimensions on the line. I have another script that can read a csv of block names and values, and add these as attributes to the block.

The attributes added are simple, like "weight" and "max stack qty". I would like to be able to see these values in the properties tab or in quick properties. In my CUI I have "Display Custom Attributes" checked under "block reference".

However, when I select a block, no attributes show up. I can get it to show me things like "name" and all of the scaling values, just no attributes.

Illustrator :: Eyedropper Tool Can't Paste Complex Set Of Attributes

Feb 21, 2013

With Eyedropper Tool click unselected Source Object, (which has 1 fill and 2 stroke attributes) the Eyedropper Tool stem detects Source Object's attributes...then, pressing Option key, click on Destination Object (which contains a default fill and stroke).The Destination Object only receives the base fill and stroke of the Source Object... it should receive all the attributes of the Source Object.

NOTE: 'New Art has Basic Appearance' is unchecked in the Appearance Panel.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Properties And Quick Properties Not Displaying Information For Objects

Jul 10, 2012

When I select any object, my quick properties tab is blank and my properties tab doesn't register anything.  Also, I get an error message when I go into my CUI to try to modify the quick properties tab.   Pretty frustrating. I've attached a couple of images for reference.  I've repaired, re-installed and unistalled and re-installed and still have the same probelm.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Properties For AEC Objects Not Displaying In Properties Palette?

Jan 16, 2012

A user showed me today that she cannot see any properties for a wall, door, or other AEC object in the Properties palette.

Some options like height, width, etc. are shown, but not layer, style, etc. from the General portion of the Basic tab.

Is this going to be a reinstall scenario or is there a fix for this?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Display Attributes In The Properties?

Mar 2, 2011

I recently upgraded to a new computer and CAD Civil 3D 2011.  I have always had it set up to when I selected a node the attributes (description, point number, etc..) for it would show up in the properties.  Now I can only view them by double clicking the node.  Is there a way to get them to display in the properties again?

AutoCad :: Block Attributes In Properties Window?

Jul 5, 2013

I'm not able to see the values of attributes in my Properties Palette. When I select the block, I would like to see the associated attributes show up in the "Properties" window; however for some reason they do not.

This happens with all blocks and I checked the constant. I'm thinking it's a Variable but don't know which one.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Block Attributes To DWG Document Properties

Mar 21, 2013

My company is building a template library, and I want to fill in the .DWG document properties by extracting the information from a the block attributes

For example we need the following document properties (TITLE, SUBJECT, and KEYWORD) to be filled in from the same block attributes (TITLE, SUBJECT, and KEYWORD). The template we have now has this information manually input, but we would like to "automate" it on the .DWG document properties.

How do we do this, use a macro or is there some other way to do this automatically?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Edit Multiple Attributes Properties?

Apr 20, 2011

Is there any way to edit multiple attribute properties, NOT using battman? While battman will chnage every att-block within the drawing, I'm looking for a way to change the text size of one specific line of text within an attribute, and ONLY change it in a certain few within the drawing. It'd be nice if I can select those specific blocks and change the properties in the properties manager, but it's not an option.

3ds Max :: Hide Complex Objects?

May 16, 2012

I don't mean "Hide" as in right clicking and hiding selected objects, because that doesn't seem to work.

I'm working with Rayfire and need a way to remove the fragment objects from my view so the program will run faster.

Alternatively is there any way to combine multiple scene's objects instead? (so I could work on the fragments and then the rest of the scene and then combine them.)

AutoCAD LT :: Attributes Disappear After Saving Block With Properties Table

Mar 15, 2011

I used the Block Properties table in dynamic block editor. I picked 3 out of 6 atributes to include in the Block properties table and I inserted the predefined values. When I view the block in testblock edditor everything works. Everything works also in the same drawing were the block was created. I can choose the predefined block vallues from the dropdown list.

The problem is that when I save the block in the block edditor as new drawing, for the purpose to use this and include this block in another drawing, then the attributes witch were associated with the Block Properties table are missing. They are also missing when I open the block editor in the new drawing. The attributes that were not associated with the table exist.

I have added 2 files. 1 with the block created in the same drawing and another where the block was saved an inserted to a new drawing.

AutoCad 2D :: Alter 2 Attributes / Show Properties Of Field For Attribute

Dec 11, 2013

I am a little new to assigning attributes. My company had a block with two attributes that I need to alter. When the block is inserted, it asks a quantity. The other attribute is titled location. I am told if needed, all these quantities can be totaled per drawing. It has a title of "location". Two things: How to replicate this action? And is there a way to show all properties of a field for an attribute?

3ds Max :: Crop Complex 2D Meshed Objects

Jul 21, 2013

cropping/cutting complex meshed 2d objects.I create a 2d plane and divide it to 100x100 sections. How can I extract a star from it preserving the meshed squares of the plane?
 
In Illustrator I'd create a compound path from the 100x100 (10.000 squares)  and extract it. Then I'd create a star position it in front of the plane, select both and hit "crop" in the pathfinder.
 
What I actually need is to "subdivide" 2d shapes but if I apply the subdivide modifier It applies a triangle mesh and what i need is squares manually delete the outside segment by segment but I'm talking real complex shapes..

AutoCad :: Linking Drawing Properties Summary To Title Block Attributes

Dec 8, 2009

I have created fields in the drawing properties custom fields dialogue box, then inserted those fields into my title block attributes.

Two things I hope to get out of this:

1. link these fields into the drawing property summary, so that I can display the drawing title and other pieces of info in the help strings that appear in windows explorer by simply hovering the cursor over the file.

2. I wish to be able to fill out the information in the title block by data linking it to our drawing lists in access.

Illustrator :: Can Change Color Of All Objects At Once In Complex File?

Aug 9, 2012

I have very complex file, with hundreds of paths, shapes, text, outlined text,  etc... It's a brochure with graphs, scematich drawings and text.
 
Last moment, the client like the reverse the colors from (current) Black on white, to all White on dark gray background.
 
Problem is, I can't seem to find easy way to just change the colors, without selecting one by one, every single object. When I selest all and choose white, it start filling paths with solid fill... Editing it wastes allot of my time and I have many pages to do.
 
Is there any way to simple change color of everything at once, just from black to white ? Or do I have to go object by object manually ?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Add Custom Properties To Objects

Aug 13, 2013

Is there any (non programming) solution where I can add custom data/properties to objects in plain AutoCAD?

(I know I can in Civil 3D though, using Notes/Extended Properties etc etc)

We want to allow users to add their own unique ID to all their drawn objects, and we don't want to use Entity Handle as that is not anything we can choose  ;-)

We're using that ID to connect other datasources (ODBC) to Navisworks and we would like it to work even from AutoCAD, even though we have Civil 3D inhouse.

using plain AutoCAD straight out of the box?

AutoCad 2D :: Missing Properties Of Objects In Architecture

Apr 26, 2013

I used architecture on my pc. I installed Autocad on another pc with the same Serial code. I can see on the top that my version suddenly is a Educational version. I'm telling you this because i don't know if this is the reason of my problem.

The problem: i can't see the properties of an object when i use autocad architecture in the educational version.

For example: I make a wall and i place a window in the wall. Now i want to change the width of my window, using the properties bar. SO i click on my window (right mouse button) and click on PROPERTIES. It opens the properties bar BUT i can't see the window and his properties. At the top of the properties bar it says "No selection".. How can this be when i begin with the right mouse click on my window?

When i do it in the other direction: Open properties (ctrl+1) first and then select for example my wall, still nothing changes in the properties bar!

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Overrule On Custom Object

Aug 9, 2012

I want to change display of custom object using overrule.

First I made a class implements from polyline.

class BoundaryPolyline : Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Polyline { }
 
Second I made a polylineJig to draw my custom polyline(BoundaryPolyline).

 public class PolylineJig : EntityJig { public PolylineJig(Point3dCollection p3ds) : base(new BoundaryPolyline()) { ... } ... }

 And then add overrule on BoundaryPolyline to change display of it.

Overrule.AddOverrule(RXObject.GetClass(typeof(BoundaryPolyline)), mydrawOverrule, false);

 But when I loaded dll, fired overrule and redraw. All polyline display were changed.

Then I found that 'RXObject.GetClass(typeof(BoundaryPolyline)' was return 'Polyline' but not 'BoundaryPolyline'.

AutoCAD .NET :: Overrule Control In BlockReference?

Jun 26, 2012

I am working on simple WorldDraw overrule where lines and polylines are displayed with little cross. Size of cross is related to view size.

Everything works fine except blocks and Xrefs. If they are scaled then crosses are scaled as well.

I know how to get entity owner ID but it refers to BlockTableRecord only not to BlockReference.
