I have AutoCAD 2011 2012 & 2013 installed. All are needed for various reasons.
The problem is, when start a new project AutoCAD 2012 library is automatically referenced. Even if I try to remove it, AutoCAD does nor allow it saying that it is in use. I can't even find AutoCAD 2011 library in the list of references. And I want to reference 2011 library only.
Do we have a size limit of the models using replace model reference?
Just done a little testing with some iam's
Anything larger that 500 parts and the drawing does nothing, no replace..
Is there any way to put the 2011 topobase and the 2011 ArcGIS plugin into 2012 or 2013? Seems such a shame just to lost all of that functionality.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have structures and alignments data referenced. If I assign the structures ref alignments in the dwg with the data refs for labeling, the next time I open the dwg the ref alignments are set back to none, causing the labels to be ?
It seems like this worked in the past?
I'm working on a large infrastructure project with numerous of drawings. On quite a few layout drawings I need to have the same base set of references, however I need to change the layer settings (colors, lineweight etc.). This cannot be done in the base reference itself as it is used by others. As the layouts I work with includes other references as well, it is time consuming to filter and change layer settings on each base reference.
My concept is to have a master reference file to manage all layer settings and add/remove base references. When the master reference is referenced into the layout, all layer settings on the base references should stay as set in the master reference. In this way I can easily control all base references with one file and make sure all changes will be the same for all the layouts.
New illustration of concept:
I am getting this error in my production drawings.
My setup is as follows:
- EG.dwg has my existing surface in it. I create a data reference to use it in other drawings.
- Level One.dwg has the EG surface data referenced in, and I use this to create alignments, profiles, and finish surface. All of these are turned in to data references.
- Storm Sanitary.dwg has my pipe designs. I data reference in the two surfaces, profiles, and alignments, and create pipe networks. I create references for these networks.
- Plan Profile.dwg is the production sheet I'm getting this error from. Every one of my civil objects is data referenced in to this drawing. Everything is inserted correctly, the pipes show correct FG surface elevations for their rims, etc.
BUT when I open this drawing, I get this error. I assume it's because my FG surface is not directly in the storm sanitary.dwg.
How do I get rid of this error, without combining drawings, or promoting the surface to one or more drawings? Isn't this exactly what data references is made for?

We originally had some install issues, but a clean install and update to .NET framework 4.0 has seemed to finally be able to allow us to install the software. During installation the AV software was deactivated. User has full admin rights. Now when he double clicks the icon to launch the software he's receiving an error dialog box that is titled "Exception in acmgd.dll ARX Command". The only way he can get it to run correctly is to right click on the icon and select "Run As Administrator".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI really like the option to reference a .dgn into Civil3d but I have noticed an alignment issue. If I use Map Import and bring in a .dgn, (without changing any import defaults) then reference the same file it never ends up exactly aligned with the original data. It's almost like a coordinate surface conversion but it's only off +/-29'. I set-up my coordinates units under settings in my toolspace and get the same results.
I attached a file for an example.
I'm currently working on a job in a team where we'll be working on different drawings, yet have the other drawings x-referenced into our drawings to keep up with updated files. We've had no issues with this for the few months we've been doing this, until overnight one night this week it seemed everything changed.
I'm currently updating our elevations while my partner is updating the plans. I have those plans x-referenced into my elevation drawings. The issue that we've run into is simply that any time I have my elevations or any drawing open that contains an x-reference, the file that is being referenced won't open without stating "[that file] is currently in use by [other user]. Would you like to open the file read-only?"
I've seen this alert before and it's understandable when dealing with the actual file (one person opens a file another already has open), but I've never before had this alert stem from the file in question being an xref. I closed my elevations and then opened the plans with no problem...no alert stating they were in use by someone else.
We're using AutoCAD Architecture 2013.
I tried to call COM object created by C# from other C# module.
I did:
1. Create simple COM object by C#
2. Register it
3. Try to call this COM from other C# console application - it works fine
4. Create simple AutoCad module by C# with IExtensionApplication
5. Try to call this module from AutoCAD - it works
6. In Initialize() method I wrote:
Type myClassAdapterType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("CoreAdapter.CoreAdapterClass");
acDoc.Editor.WriteMessage("Type is OK: {0}", myClassAdapterType.FullName);
object myClassAdapterInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(myClassAdapterType);
acDoc.Editor.WriteMessage("Created");
6. Open AutoCAD again
7. Load my module
8. I saw "Type is OK" (becase it was registered in registry)
But I can't create instance.

One of the things about Mtext that I really like is to dynamically adjust the text box size. I don't seem to be able to do this when using the multileader with the Mtext. The Mtext when selected with the Multileader acts like the single line text where I have to manually insert returns.
