AutoCad 2D :: Polylines And Arcs Appear Smooth In 2005 But Not When Exported

Aug 6, 2013

I have drawn several shapes including simple ones like rectangles with the corners filleted to 2" radii and ones shaped like a jelly bean using a combination of polylines, straightlines and arcs.

In my ACAD LT 2005 files, the arcs, fillets and polylines all appear very smooth (I set the display setting to 10,000) after I saw that the arcs had noticeable facets (like a diamond) when zoomed in.

My problem is that when I send these DXF files to my CNC router technician and he imports them into his program (EnRoute V.5). All of those arcs, fillets, and polylines still have those facets in them and do not appear smooth. When we actually cut plywood from these files, the pieces are in fact choppy.

My question- besides the display settings, is there a setting that I can change that will increase the number of control points that make up these curves that would smooth these facets out?

AutoCAD .NET :: Convert Arcs To Polylines?

Jun 25, 2011

I've got ObjectIds of a bunch of arcs that I need to convert to polylines for further processing.

I was thinking of using the COM interface and sending the PEDIT command and converting the arcs.

The only problem is I don't know of a way to put the objectids into a selection set, then call the pedit command and use the previous selection.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Convert Polylines Into ARCs

May 6, 2013

I want to turn this shape on the left, into one like the one on the right... i.e., not so many points.

I basically want to convert the polylines into arcs or something. i can do this by redrawing, thats no problem, but this is a very simple drawing compared to what i normally have to deal with, this is just an example.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Converting Arcs To Polylines?

May 10, 2012

I have some polylines that mark the edge of roadway and around the curves there are arcs in the linework. How do I turn the polyline with arcs in it into a polyline with vertices, say, every .5' or so along the curve and turn the curve into a polyline? I tried the pedit and using decurve but it doesn't work well.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Converting Polylines With Width And Text Into Close Polylines

Jan 2, 2014

As the above mentioned, I have a drawing drawn using polylines with width from someone. The width of the line are suppose to represent area,

To put things into prospective, here is an example:

The polyline is 10 unit long and with a width of 2 unit wide. If i explode that polyline, it will become a single polyline without width. The line are suppose to represent 10 unit long and 2 unit wide; representing an area.

My question is is there a way to change the line above directly from polyline with width to a close polyline (4 x polylines) of 10 unit long and 2 unit wide.

AutoCad :: Converting 3D Polylines To Polylines With Elevation?

Jan 20, 2006

Is there a way of converting 3d polylines to polylines with an elevation?

I have a dwg of contour information, the contours are 3d polylines, because they are contours the z value is constant all along the line, so there no question what the elevation of the polyline would need to be.

I need to do this as I then need to import the dwg into a GIS programme called MapInfo whch doesn't read 3d polylines.

I have access to AutoCAD 2004 or 2005LT.

AutoCAD VB :: Plot To Device Failing In 2005?

Jul 4, 2005

my app permits to the users select multiple DWG files, inserting them into a MSHFLEXGRID.

After this the user can select a DWT file and store in a matrix (PC) all its AcadPlotConfigurations.

The user can select distinct Page Layout for each DWG file selected.

Then running the code below, each file is opened in ACAD and then printed using the specific Page Layout.

This was running very good in ACAD 2002. After migrate to ACAD 2005 only the first file is printed. The others DWG files return FALSE to the PlotToDevice command.

Is it missing some command ?Does ACAD 2005 need anything extra to run ?

Obs: the DWT Page Layouts were created for MODELs and the files to be printed are using only the model space too.

'################################
' PLOT SAMPLE
'################################
Dim PC() As AcadPlotConfiguration
Private Sub Plot_Click()
Dim Layout As AcadLayout
Dim LayoutBase As AcadLayout
Dim indice As Integer
Dim retorno As Boolean

[code].....

AutoCAD LT :: Why Layers In LT 2005 Will Not Show In LT 2013

May 6, 2013

Drawing created in AutoCAD LT 2005 - in AutoCAD LT 2013, several layers are not present.  Tuned off all filtering, etc.  Noted that some blocks will not appear in layouts even though the layer they are on is not frozen in the layout. 

Not clear why layers in LT 2005 will not show in LT 2013  I attached offending file.I am self-taught and LT 2013 is a little daunting for me.

Forgot to mention that layer AX-COL-SYMB-2 does not show up in LT 2013.  Also, block for column line symbols (circle/column numbers) will not show in layouts in LT 2013, but will in LT 2005.

AutoCAD LT :: 2005 Locks Up When Attempt To Open Layers?

Dec 5, 2011

This morning I opened AutoCad LT 2005 and was going to print a map with multiple layers.  Everytime I tried to open the layers tool AutoCad LT 2005 would lock up.  I would go to the task manager and it showed that it was still running but I could not do anything in the program.  I closed Autocad LT from the task manager and opened up a blank document and tried to view layers and it locked up once again.  I re-installed AutoCad LT 2005 from original disk and still I have the same behavior.

AutoCad :: Startup Error / Cannot Load Resource Only DLL - ADT 2005 / XP Pro

Jul 8, 2005

I've been running ADT 2005 successfully on windows XP Pro for a year, but suddenly after running the backup program in windows XP, I effectively cannot startup and run AutoCAD for all the "Resource Manager Errors".

Checking the Autodesk knowledge base, the problem is recognized, but the solution does not appear to be available to me. Here is what Autodesk has to say:

Startup error: Cannot load resource only dll
Published date: 2004-10-21
ID: TS100289
Applies to:
Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005
Issue

When you attempt to launch a session of Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005, the following error message is displayed:

Cannot load resource only dll

Solution: This error message typically occurs on systems running a backup software, such as Backup Software Verita 9.1. This software runs a remote agent that causes a conflict with the loading of ARX and DLL files associated with Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005. In these instances, disabling the remote agent will restore the ability to launch and utilize Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005.

*[back to me] - I've searched for the aformentioned "remote agent" on my system, but to no avail. Meanwhile, I cannot run ADT as it asks for missing files at startup and at every command.

If not, where might I find MDT 2005.  I have looked everywhere and it seems to be non existant. It would be alot faster than rebuilding anew in inventor and engineers hate to redo something alredy done correctly.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Dialog Image From 2005 Not Displaying In V2012

Mar 13, 2012

I'm trying to bring a lsp routine up to date and it's almost as if I'm a newbie again.  A dialog image worked okay in 2005 but in version 2012 displays poorly.  So I made a new slide in 2012 and saved it to the same name as the old one,  HobMasterDialog.sld, and placed it in the same folder as the old one.  However, when the dialog appears the rectangular area for the image is blank.

What am I forgetting?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Custom Menu Will Not Stay Loaded Between Restarts On 2005

Aug 2, 2012

This is related to AutoCAD 2005 only:

I have a custom menu file which is NOT located in the support path but rather is on a server drive for all AC 2005 user's to access. When I load this menu in AC 2005 and then restart, it is gone and has to be reloaded. This is happening for all 2005 users in this office. With AC 2009 we use CUI and that custom file is also located on the server, not in the support path, but the 2009 machines are working fine. It is only the AC 2005 users who keep loosing their menu item each morning.

I have done extensive searching on this and it appears to be a common problem but the thing which is also common to all the posts and articles I read on it is that none of them offer a resolution which actually works.
