I created a custom ribbon for my collection of blocks.
I want to arrange the buttons in three columns each with about 5 to 10 rows.
The ribbon is nicely created, except that all rows are shown.
I would like to see only the first three rows and the next rows as a drop down.
Like in the Draw-section of the home tab in AutoCAD 2013.
I have been using AutoCAD 2006. Our company is switching to AutoCAD 2012 LT. I want to be able to add my custom toolbar buttons from the 2006 to the 2012 LT custom Ribbon Tabs & Panels. I have figured out how to make the custom ribbon, tab and panel. I just haven’t figured out what I need to do to get the old stuff to where I can add them to the panels.
I have custom 2006 buttons with and without flyouts.
I am new in the autodesk customization, I have autocad 2013 and visual studio 2010..I am interested in make a custom ribbon tab, where I can put a button.
I have found some (incomplete) samples to implement a custom ribbon tab, but I dont know how to "insert" my tab into autocad 2013, and how must I load my tab? with a command? or it can load automatically?
I've been developing a way for our drafters to properly use a layer scheme. I implemented this by using a background database defined in Excel and loading this on startup. The interface is provided by custom ribbon elements as described in Fenton Webb's "UI Design featuring WPF" (autodesk university, 2009).
The ribbon contains the following custom elements:
- two series of radioboxes which are stripped of the default WPF multithreading
- a dropdown which monitors and manipulates LTSCALE
- a dropdown which selects values from the background database.
- a UserControl which displays information from the background database about the current layer
All this has worked fine on multiple (about eight) computers with AutoCAD 2010 and 2012, vanilla and Map 3D. Now for two users, the workspace randomly freezes up. The freeze is just visually, commands are still executed and it is still possible to switch to a workspace without my ribbon in it, but my ribbon just stays on the foreground. This freeze happens when the user interacts with any part of the ribbon: switching tab, clicking buttons, etcetera.
The only way to resolve this problem so far is as following:
- Switch to another workspace without my custom ribbon tab
- Restart AutoCAD
- Switch back to the original workspace, everything works now
Directly restarting AutoCAD just results in another frozen interface.
How to create a custom ribbon with sketches cmd... I found example for assembly context... it work well but I don't find how to do that in sketch mode... The goal is to control the cmd the user can use.

I have made a 2012 LT custom ribbon and a custom panel. I have transferred buttons from my autocad 2006 to my 2012 LT. They work just fine. The probem is that in 2006 I had drop down buttons to save toolbar space. I want to be able to add the drop down button feature to my new panel. I do not see how to create that type of button, so I can add the regular buttons to it and have one drop down button with those commands in it.

I have tried everything even un-installing and re-installing. I have customized programs that have been working properly for months by many individuals. These include custom menus, toolbars and ribbon tabs. One day last week one of the ribbon tabs disappeared. The crazy thing is if I load the .cuix file as an Enterprise cui, everything is visible and works just fine. BUT, when I load it as a partial cuix file the ribbon tab does not show up. The custom menus come in, my custom toolbars work and show up just fine but the dag blasted ribbon tab won't show up.
Yes, it's marked as visible. I've done and redone the cui editor, customized my workspace again and again checking every piece of information. I need to have it loaded as a partial cui file as I am the author of these tools that hundreds of people in my company depend on.

I am trying to customize Autocad 2012 ribbon tab. I can't seem to find how to mimic the small arrow that appears in several of the standard menus. For example, in the 3D Solids - Home Tab, the second panel from the left is "3D Solids Home - Mesh" It has a small arrow in the corner that opens up a preferences dialogue box.
How can I add that arrow to a custom panel with that little arrow so that I can add my command to it?

Is there an error in DWG to PDF? When I make a custom paper size A4 with size 210x297 and 0 margins, the pdf comes out wrong, see attached pdf.

Is there some reason my 2013 custom material library size is so big. I have a 16 different appearances and 35 different physical properties with a total of 71 separate materials and then file is nearly 3 megs. 99% of the appearances and physical props are Inventor standard.
The default Inventor Library with considerably more information is WAY smaller.
So what's going on, am i just building the library wrong?
I also have a different library that is over 21 megs, it contains a number of different materials that is comperable to the default Inventor one but again only 16 appearances and 35 phsical props. It's completly unusable.

I have AutoCAD 2007 on my machine.I have made a dll using AutoCAD.NET API which does the task of plotting a DWG harness drawing to a pdf file.I specify the device name and the page size to be plotted in a AutoCAD.NET method SetPlotConfigurationName(ps,"DWG To PDF.pc3",papersize).It works fine as long as I keep on giving default paper sizes.But, when I create a custom paper size using the plot configuration editor which in turn produces a new .pc3 file and when I include the same as the device name in the above mentioned method,it does not work.It throws an exception as eInvalidInput.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI made a form that allows the user to enter in a custom sheet size. Using the API I am changing the Drawing Sheet Size Enumerator to the Custom Sheet size which allows the user to enter in custom values. That part is all working fine. My problem is that when a custom size is used in my title block it says that the size is "Custom Size (mm)". I know that the API uses cm for the sheet size units so I have the code convert the values into cm.
In the sheet settings window built into inventor it has the option for Custom Size (inches) and Custom Size (mm). How do I change whether it is inches or mm?

Simply say when I change custom printer size at the printer's driver settings and confirm all dialogs nothing happend and LT use default settings. No dialog about new or temporary PC3 appear so looks that ACAD doesnt know about change at the printer driver?
This problem isn't continual but, for example, I printed something from the same dwg twice, but when third one change was set the very problem will appear and ACAD doesn't register changes.
