AutoCad 2D :: Cannot Get Any Arrow Or Dimension Readings
Mar 16, 2013I have not touched AutoCAD for quite some time and I just got back on it today.
For some reason, I cannot seem to be able to get the arrow at both end when I am drawing dimensions. Also, no text (unit) is shown is arrow either...

View 7 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2013 :: UCS Rotated In Block Editor?
Jan 4, 2013I am working with 2013 in 2D
Somehow I switched my UCS without noticing from X,Y,X to Z,Y,X. Though the UCS was changed my layout never switched orientation (flat square remained flat square and did not turn into a line).
I was alerted to the error when inserting the blocks. Half of the blocks were showing up as thin lines (in the Z plane) and half where showing up in the X plane.
I was able to correct the UCS by typing UCS, world view, then PLAN, current.
My question now: How can I fix the blocks that where "created" in the Z plane so that they can be inserted into the X plane without having to 'rotate3d' every time I insert a block?
AutoCAD Architecture :: 2012 - Dimension Arrow Scale For Architectural Ticks
Apr 13, 2011I have recently started using Architect 2012. We use Architectural Tick for dimensioning.
The problem is the Architectural Tick arrow is not coming in at the proper scale (Arrow head size = 3/32", dimscale varies). The arrow head seems to be out by a scale factor of 25.4 (found by trial and error).
If so is there a software patch or workaround. Can the Architectural Tick block be edited and if so where is it?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Arial Text In Block Looks Bold When Rotated 90
Apr 30, 2012We have some blocks that have static text labels on the left and numeric attributes on the right. When these blocks are rotated so the text is near vertical the static text has a bold appearance.
If you explode/burst the block then this 'bold' appearance goes away. If you rotate the text to normal then the effect disappears as well. The bold appearance shows up on a plot as well. The effect is subtle at times but noticeable.
Sample drawing attached, see the block near the top of the drawing and a copy of it rotated to normal. Use the BURST command on the block on the left to see the change.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Dynamic Block (Spline Arrow)
Jun 12, 2012Well I created this dynamic block, and within the block is a pull-down to change the style of arrow from a custom version to spline or straight. Everthing works fine and look great in the drawing. But when I use the the Spline arrow it will show up correct graphically but will plot as two straight lines with an arrow which totally defeats the purpose. I have attached the block here. I checked this on C3D11 and LDD08 and they both have the same issue so it's more than likely an ACAD thing.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Block Command Doesn't Work - Crosshairs Instantly Turn Into Windows Arrow
Aug 19, 2010Why my Block command does not work anymore?
I type in the command ( I'm an old school typer, hate the buttons ) BLOCK....then the next thing that happens is (after hitting enter of course), my crosshairs instantly turn into the Windows arrow.
I wasn't playing with any switches. I was just trying to make a little block with a number in it.
Yes, I restarted AutoCAD, restarted the computer, did not reload in AutoCAD.....AutoCAD 2011 by the way.
I run Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
I have to do a WBLOCK to make the blocks I need to bypass this odd behavior.

Jul 27, 2012I am making a template file having title block with fields. I use this template for creating layouts and sheets using Sheet Set Manager and the fields will be updated from the data of SSM. Now i would like to add a dynamic north block to my template. The block could be rotated (i have this block in file itself) and rotation angle could be inserted. Now how can i add a custom field to SSM so that i could set a rotation angle for the project and thus every new layout or sheet created using the template has the north block rotated with the angle mentioned in SSM.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: How To Make Attribute Block That Contains A Dimension
Mar 14, 2012 How to make an attribute block that contains a dimension?
I’m wondering if there is a way to create an attribute block that contains the particular text and the value of the dimension length. More specifically, in the screenshot below in need to show the steel bars (as an attribute) along with the value of the dimension of the bar such that in case the block is stretched then the value of the dimension length changes. I think the block itself needs to be dynamic.
The issue here is having an attribute for the “steel bar type” and its length. The “steel bar type” must be editable while the length must be written automatically to reflect the length of the bar.
