AutoCAD .NET :: How To Know The Object ID For Any Geometry
Oct 28, 2013I just want to know that how can I know the Object ID from the AutoCAD for any geomatry.
I knew already from the coding but I want to know manually for AutoCAD.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Object Information To Object Geometry
Mar 12, 2012I'm making a surface out of contours. The problem is the contours have the elevation listed under object information, not geometry (the contours were brought in from a GIS file, which I do not have access to, or I would bring them in again with the elevations properly assigned, this is not an option). How can I quickly change the geometry elevation property to match the miscellaneous property?

AutoCAD Inventor :: A Global Transient Geometry Object?
Jul 2, 2013I've found myself using this code often:
// Get the transient geometry object. We'll use this to create pure geometryCComPtr<TransientGeometry> pTrGeom;pTrGeom = pApp->TransientGeometry;
But I was thinking, once I have pTrGeom can I just declare a global to hold it while my Inventor instance is running?
Alternatively I suppose I could have a global function which does this:
CComPtr<TransientGeometry> GetTransientGeometryPtr(){ static CComPtr<TransientGeometry> pTrGeom = NULL ;
if (pTrGeom == NULL) pTrGeom = pApp->TransientGeometry; return (pTrGeom) ;}
So it reduces to a one-liner. But in COM is that static valid? I know the code is not complete above, but you get the idea.
What do other C++ COM programmers do here...?
3ds Max :: Geometry Not Rendering For Plane Object
Jan 30, 2012I have a scene set up like the picture below but for some reason when I go to render it out, the geometry isn't there for the plane object. I've set it up like that because I have the ball emitting fire and then deflectors along the plane so the particles move across them as if they fire was contained and the particle system reacts in this way but in the final render the geometry for the plane isn't there. I've went through the object properties and renderable is checked.

3ds Max :: 20 Pieces Of Geometry That When Assembled Create A Single Object
Mar 2, 2011I have 20 pieces of geometry that when assembled create a single object. In my layers window, it shows all 20 pieces under a single layer. When i attach all object so create a single object, all the layers "sub-layers" stay intact.
I have never noticed this before, but would have assumed that the layer would have been consolidated to reflect the singular object in my viewport. Is Max acting the way it should?

Maya Modeling :: Create Geometry On Surface Of An Object
Jun 21, 2013I have used Quad Draw to create geometry on the surface of an object, this geometry and its pivot can be seen in picture 1.I then try to mirror this geometry to the other side of the object's surface using the settings shown in picture 2
I get a mirror, but not based on the pivot, but it seems the mirrored geometry wants to be attached to the original drawn polys as shown on picture 3. Could it be a bug or is this how Quad Drawn objects are intended to behave?

I have been using Solidworks the "wrap" feature, but its inconvenient to jump between software platforms.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Lost 3D Geometry
Feb 7, 2013my 3D geometry going missing after I have saved the drawing. Running AutoCAD 2013, Saving file Format 2010. I draw a room. I have walls, chairs, desks, a floor, etc. I save the drawing. When going to re-open the file I can see all of my geometry in the file preview, but when opening the DWG the floor is missing. All Layers are on and thawed. When running a purge command it indicates that something is on the layer, but I can't see it or select it. Changing visual styles also has no effect. I have used CAD in 3D since CAD 200.

Although the command line does show that the objects have been selected. I've tried different ways of selecting the geometry but every time it shows the same thing.
P.S - i was able to export it in other (.IGES, .IGS formats) but it doesn't seem to be working the same way with .STL
AutoCAD .NET :: Geometry Line2D IntersectWith

I normally use a database transaction to create temporary drawing Lines when I need to do any intersections. But I decided to try virtual Geometry Line2d instead.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Importing 2D Geometry
Jan 16, 2006How in import 2D geometry into Inventor so I do not have to redraw the profile, only extrude the existing geometry. I tried to export from Autocad a IGES file, and then create a sketch plane in Inventor and project the geometry onto the sketch plane, but I ended up with a bunch of open loops. Perhaps, I have figured it out and real question is how to I close open loops?
View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCad 2D :: How To Get Geometry Information In Properties
Apr 26, 2011 once I've set an origin, how do you get the geometry info in the properties to show the coordinates from that origin? what I want to do is set an origin and then find relative points from that origin. What are the ways to do this? On ProgeCad I would just set an origin and then if I viewed the properties of say a circle, it would tell me the x,y,z coordinates from that origin but I can't seem to do it in AutoCad.
As you can see from the picture, what I did was set an origin at the on point. Then I selected the arc for which I want to know the coordinates. But as you can see in the properties it says the x,y are like 566,567mm, but clearly if I draw lines to that point and measure the lines it is only like 1.00,0.70mm.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can't Extrude Geometry Text
Jul 7, 2013I'm fairly new to the world of CAD, and I was just working on a phone case for my friend when I tried to extrude geometry text, but couldn't because the OK and Apply options were greyed out. I tried embossing and making a hole, but they were greyed out for them too. I tried messing with the settings to see if I could fix it, but I still couldn't. I'm really confused right now, I remember doing something similar for a case I made for myself.?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Block Geometry Disappears
Oct 8, 2012Just recently we upgraded from ACAD 2010 to 2011. Some users are still on XP and some are on Windows 7. Since we began making the jump to ACAD 2011, we have begun to notice more and more drawings popping up with blocks no longer visible that were there the day before. When you go to the block editor, the block definition is still there but all of the geometry has been blown away. The only entity that seems to be immune is an attribute. The only commonality among the various drawings this is happening too is that they are all being accessed from an XP machine. Some folks have had to spend hours restoring all the blocks that were lost and that in itself was a challenge because ACAD already saw the definition so it would continue to blow away the geometry. You could purge the block IF you could find a way to pick it and delete it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Import 2D DWG As Construction Geometry?
Dec 17, 2011Currently I save all my 2D DWGs as IGES files and then import the files into Inventor. That converts all the geometry to Construction Wires in an IPT, which means MUCH improved performance (you don't have to wait for Inventor to convert every single entity in the DWG to a Sketch entity). I then start a new Sketch and Project those lines that I need from the Construction Wires.
Is there a way to do this directly (convert to Construction Wires) with a DWG, without having to save as an IGES file first?

AutoCad :: How To Use Constrain To Bisect Angle In Geometry
Aug 6, 2011In triangle ABC, AD is drawn as angle bisector and BE is drawn perpendicular to AD. I want to draw these two lines and triangle ABC by means of constrains, so that when I move point A (make it bigger or smaller), I can get those two lines move automatically. What kind of constrains should I use? For triangle itself, I use "coincident" constrain. I think this part is correct. Whenever I move a vertex after selecting a line and using red grips, it responds and triangle reshapes. Do we have angle bisector constrain? I draw angle dimension line for two equal angle and tried to impose equal constrain for these two angle but couldn't succeed.
