Photoshop :: Pasting Into Existing Layer?

Jun 13, 2006

I've got a Photoshop file that someone wants me to use as a template. It has an existing layer that I need to put a picture into without modifying the layer or creating a new one.

Whenever I cut and paste a picture into it, the pasted picture becomes "Layer 1" but I want it to paste onto a layer which is already there (rather than become a new layer).

AutoCad :: Add Some Attributes To Existing Block Using Block Editor

Dec 12, 2013

I'm trying to add some attributes to an existing block using the block editor, but after I save and close it I cannot see any 'placeholders' despite adding a default value and the attributes work fine when I double click the block.

I've tried using the ATTSYNC and BATTMAN commands but nothing works and there are no invisibility states applied to either the attribute or block and all layers are switched on.

I just tried making a quick block from scratch and it seems to have the same affect, except the default value will show, but no 'placeholder' shown if left blank.

I swear with previous version I could see the tag when a value hadn't been applied, so is it that the version I now use (2012) does not have this feature or it's disabled?

AutoCad :: Convert Existing Block To Leader That Uses Same Block

Oct 21, 2013

I was wondering if it would be possible to convert an existing block to a leader that uses the same block with the arrow attached without losing the information which is stored inside the block attributes.

I have created the multi leader with the block definition attached but I'm still struggling to incorporate the data into it.

There are to many blocks to do this manually. I have exported the data to a excel but do not know how to insert it back into to multi leader.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Grey Lines Flick White When Working In Large Dwg / Cutting And Pasting As Block?

May 4, 2012

when I am working on a large drawing and/or pasting as a block, all the grey lines (colour 8) turn to white. When I select a grey line, it flicks back to grey, but de-select, and it's white again.

If I toggle on hardware acceleration, the problem is fixed for a short while, and also if I turn it off, it is fixed for a short while, and also if I save, close and re-open it's good untill I paste a block....

I suspect it may be because of my setup and an un tested graphics card:

Jun 26, 2012

I'm creating a routine to fill in my terminal strips. This routine worked perfectly in Vba but I'm now rewriting it for .NET...The problem is that I want to insert a block with attributes into different cells.The tables already exists. Below my function, I'm stuck on this part

Dim lonReturnedIds = FunBlockId() ' Calls the function FunBlockID to get the ID's of the attributes
' 0 = BlockID
' 1 = AttributeID of KleurB
' 2 = AttributeID of KleurO
TS.Cells(i, intPosition).Contents.Add()
TS.Cells(i, intPosition).Contents(0).BlockTableRecordId = lonReturnedIds(0)
TS.Cells(i, intPosition).SetBlockAttributeValue(lonReturnedIds(1), strCableConductor2WriteFirst)

Public Function Fun_StripUp(ByVal Po3dXY As Point3d, ByVal str_CableName As String, ByVal Str_CableConductor As String, ByVal strCable Conductor 2 Write As String, ByVal strCableConductor2WriteFirst As String, ByVal intPosition As Integer) As StringDim tAcadDoc As ApplicationServices.Document = ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocumentDim myDB As.

AutoCAD LT :: ZTag Data To Existing Attribute In Block

Oct 19, 2011

we have a block that we use to identify rooms. that block has 3 attributes: rooms name, rooms number and surface area.

A former colleague once showed me how to do this but I can't reach him... How can I inquire the data from an area and tag-it right to the surface area attribute of my block? I don't mean pick a pline, list and edit the block... it's something like pick the closed pline and the "area" data is displayed in the right tag of my block?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Redefine Existing Block

Jan 29, 2012

I am using the following function to create a block:

(defun crea-blocco (ip blockname gruppoogg / blkobj sArray c r vla-objects doc) (setq c -1) (repeat (sslength gruppoogg) (setq r (cons (ssname gruppoogg (setq c (1+ c))) r)) ) (setq r (reverse r)) (setq vla-objects (mapcar 'vlax-ename->vla-object r)) (setq doc (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))) (setq blkobj (vla-add (vla-get-blocks doc) (vlax-3d-point ip) blockname)) (setq sArray (vlax-safearray-fill (vlax-make-safearray vlax-vbObject (cons 0 (1- (length vla-objects)))) vla-objects)) (vla-copyobjects doc sArray blkobj) blkobj)
 
But if I start this function two times with the same block name, I get a block with the selected objects added to the existing block.

How can I redefine an existing block with vlisp?

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Link Text Items Between Pages And Items In Drawing?

Apr 17, 2013

I am hoping to link text items between pages and items in the drawing such as elevations?

So, ideally, I would have a front page to my drawing set, and this would have a 'Contents' type table on it, with the title name of each drawing in one column, then the drawing number in the next column. This is the tricky bit, someone must know: If i was to change the name / number of any item in this table, could it change also (linked to) the following items:

Drawing title  (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Drawing number (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Elevation call-out (on the plan view)

And possibly:

Excel reference cell

Drawing layout tab title (this might be pushing it!!)

Perhaps this could be done by linking to an external Excel spreadsheet with these titles modified in there? I'm not sure. This would be ideal as typing into excel is a lot easier than the triple click text modify method required currently.

I waste a lot of time renaming and updating sheet names / titles / numbers. Are there standard templates for drawing sets that may have this built in available anywhere that I could try?

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Flipping Dynamic Block With Multiple Items Not Visible

new to dynamic blocks but looking to streamline my wiring diagrams here and have created a block that shows the typical wire styles we use in a simple easy way.  I now want to add an overall flip to the entire block and have not been able to find set this.  I would prefer to use the same label and go from there.  I have included the block to show what I mean.  It is only working on the single visible item at the one time.  I know this has to be possible just let me know what I am doing wrong.  I am running AutoCad LT 2013
