AutoCad :: No CHSPACE Command
Apr 26, 2011I started on AutoCAD about two weeks ago for my company. The drawings that I have done are in a viewport. There are objects outside of the viewport that I am supposed to copy and past into the viewport to use (transformers, anchors, other utility stuff). The problem with these is that they are in paperspace and I would like to copy them into modelspace. When I try to copy them into model space it says "Duplicate definition of block ****** ignored." able to copy and paste into drawing instead of doing insert command all the time and finding desired block. I am running autocad lt 2004 and do not have a chspace command.

Sep 8, 2011I use CHSPACE a lot to bring dimensions over to paper space off of my 3d structural steel models when I am doing site layouts. Occasionally the dimensions flip over upside down? I am guessing this has something to do with the UCS orientation between model and paper space, is there a system variable of setting or something that will stop them flipping over?

AutoCad :: Extract Coordinate Data
Jan 23, 2013I work in a manufacturing facility and we are trying to come up with a way to extract data from an AutoCAD file in to a .KML or .CSV file which gives coordinate points, etc.
This will be used in a mapping-type software to display/highlight areas of the plant with zooming capabilities and information shown on the left-side. We are trying to make it look something like Google Maps, so it can used to determine areas of the plant undergoing work, lighting zones, etc.
In a nutshell, I want to be able to extract coordinate data from our layout(s) which can used to pinpoint locations on the map and highlight regions, etc. Perhaps it could export data in to Excel with attributes assigned to the coordinates which give Area, Bay Location, etc. The initial thought was to somehow export this to a .KML file and use that as a starting point.

AutoCad 2D :: Coordinate When Moving / Copying
Nov 26, 2012When moving the cursor over the drawing, it moves freely and the precision of the coordinates are still working to 4 decimal places. However, when I pick an object to move or copy and then try to move or copy it, the coordinate precision settings are changing to 0 decimal places and I'm unable to move things to exactly where I want - I can only move on a mm by mm basis. How do I return the precision settings of the coordinates back to 4 decimal places so I can move / copy objects without the current constraint I'm experiencing?

AutoCad 2D :: Using Block X-coordinate To Get Station
May 21, 2012I currently have my elevation view set up so that the x-coordinates correspond to the stationing along my structure and the y-coordinate corresponds to the elevations. I have a block that will insert the y-coordinate as it should. However, the x-coordinate requires some formatting so that it is shown properly (e.g. "10+00").
I have an attribute equal to a the x-coordinate divided by 100 with the precision changed to 0. So, if my point is 1016.123, the formula converts that to 10. This field is followed by a plus sign and then another field. This last field is equal to the x-coordinate minus the x-coordinate converted as before, then times 100. The purpose being that if my x-coordinate is 1016.123, I would get 16.123 and my block attribute would reflect 10+16.123. The problem is that AutoCAD retains all of the x-coordinate's precision when subtracting and I end up with a result of 0. See attached for clarity - I know this last bit is hard to understand if you can actually see what's going on.
I understand that I could subtract out 1000, but when my stationing is beyond 20+00, I will only be subtracting 1000 and my result will not be correct.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD .NET :: Custom Dimension Of Coordinate String
May 26, 2013I want to custom dimensions about text of the coordinate in DWG. It should be like this:
I select a point then there displays a string of X,Y,Z coordinate of the point.
I select the second point to place a horizontal line(fixed lenth base the string font size) and then the string.
the whole process is like radialDimension,but what I need is to describe the point x,y,z.
and the drawing should consist of start point(actually is the target point too) and end point and the line connects the two points and a horizontal line and a string.
I think this should be completed using Dimension Class(should be CoordinateDimension based Dimension).
give me some codes. Codes is better in C# of VS2010 for autoCAD2010.
Actually there is a simple solution for this. Using c# to draw two lines and a string. But this is really bad experience when I want to move the string.
