AutoCad 2D :: Text Editor Colour Gallery To Bylayer
Jun 17, 2013
I have lots of MTEXT on a single layer which has the Bylayer colour Red but all the MTEXT is showing as Yellow. When you double-click one of the MTEXT letters it opens the MTEXT editor and I can see that the text has been manually set to Yellow in the ‘Text Editor Colour Gallery’.
Is it possible to change all the text back to Bylayer?
I have already tried using the 'SETBYLAYER' command but this hasn’t worked.
We have been connected together using a program so I can see what he is doing and vice versa.I have noticed he has more colours across the bottom. Is there any way to check as I can't seem to edit or increased the colours.
ive noticed that in designer pro x9 the colour editor gets a cross hatch pattern when manipulating 3d or bitmap objets is this correct? if so, what is the purpose?
I am looking for a lisp that has the same functions as laymrg that will allow the line to keep it's lineweight.
I have several layers in my template file that have lineweights, I want to merge these lines onto one layer but hold the color, linetype, and lineweight of the original layer.
We have a contractor who does drawings for us on occasion. For some reason his drawings won't keep linetype and color when switching layers. Is there a setting that will force all lyers to keep their color and linetype?
Is there supposed to be a drop down list for the transparency property? Once I override an objects transparency to say 50 how do I change it back to ByLayer? Do I really have to just type "ByLayer"?
I have a series of existing dimensions from others which I want to put on a screened layer so they aren't prominent. They are dimension objects, and going into the dimension style manager, I can change the color of the dimension and extension lines and the text to "Bylayer," but I can't find a place to change the color of the arrowhead, which, in this case, is not an arrowhead but is an oblique slash.
I exploded one of these dimensions, and with "List" I found that the slash was a block called "Oblique." When I exploded this, it became a line, which was on Layer 0, and its color was set to a specific color, not on "Bylayer".
Is there a way in which I can change the attribute of this dimension style to override this specifically set color of the oblique line to reset to the color I want it to print in (in this case, "Bylayer").
For labels, is the font decided in the general tab under text style or in the text component editor under the format tab? Are there overrides? There seems to be multiple locations for fonts choices when creating a label and I can't find a nice black and white answer.

Me and a friend are trying to work on a LISP routine to select objects in a drawing and change their attributes to "ByLayer" and other things. He is a familiar with the AutoCAD commands, I have a general idea of how to use LISP and we're trying to put our heads together to solve some workflow issues at our job.
I want a lisp to change all object colours from bylayer to its color Example (if layer doors its color is blue the color of objects drawn in this layer will by blue not bylayer)
trying to copy txt from an outside text editor and pasting them into an open, editable text layer in my workspace. The problem is that I can COPY the text fine, but when I click over to PS to paste it into the open editable text layer it either pastes the previous text from my clipboard OR it won't paste anything at all. I can then go into any other text field on a browser, spreadsheet document, a different text editor, notepad, etc and successfully paste the proper batch of text I wanted to paste into PS. Sometimes I have some rather large files open 50+megs when I notice this happen. I have to save my work and close out entirely of PS and then open it again before I can begin editing my original document again and successfully paste the text into the open editable text layer. This may last for a few COPY/PASTE sessions of additional text in additional text layers, but then begins displaying the symptoms I described above.
I am on Win7 on an AlienWare M17XR3 laptop with 16G RAM and AMD Radeon HD 6900M Series display adapter.I assume it's either in my PS performance settings which I have PS using 10413MB RAM and has over 350G scratch disk space. If it's not that I guess my laptop system performance settings which I've never tinkered with since I purchased it.
Is there a method to move gallery tabs so that Page & Layer Gallery tab is first in line (at the top) of docked gallery tabs at the right of the screen? I can move gallery tabs, but cannot make Page & Layer gallery tab move to the top.
Using Win7 64bit + PS CS6 64 bit ext on a 16GB PC. In which folder do I find the web gallery templates for Bridge CS6? Is there info available on how the programming/ configuration works with the info passed by Bridge - filename, contact info, copyrights, description/title, email, etc.
I've had a great time using the Web Photo Galleries in Photoshop CS and CS2, especially since I'm fairly deft with HTML and a total Flash dunce, so the Web Photo Gallery Flash 1 and Flash 2 templates have served me well and allowed me to make fun Flash stuff without having to learn. But, with learn-by-doing, there often comes a point of confusion, and I think I've found mine.
I noticed that (when using the gallery "Flash 1"), if I click the little ? in the bottom right, the file name will come on and stay on throughout all the pictures. This is exactly what I want since that's where I do all my captioning and it really adds something for me to be able to see that. My question: how in the world do I get it to do this by default? I'm always telling friends/family, "oh, click the little ? in the bottom right and it'll show the captions," but am certain there must be some way to do this by default.
I fiddled in the galleryconfig.xml file, but there's only this line
HTML Code: <var symboltype="boolean" name="showHelpButton" value="true" /> which actually just tells the button to be displayed, but not for the thing that happens as a result of pushing the button to stay displayed.
I'm trying to copy editable text from a Word file into the text editor for GIMP. Before I upgraded to 2.8, this was possible, but now it seems not. I'm on 2.8.4 using OSX Mavericks on a Macbook Pro.
I'm a terrible speller and since GIMP doesn't support spell check, this was always my workaround.
How to insert a Linefeed or Newline into text in the WEB-Gallery UserInterface defined in 'galleryInfo.lrweb'.

Click in the image grid to change to an image page.
when I go to edit a text in my drawing using dd edit. The text I want to edit is Italic T, but when I start typing it automatically changes to Txt. font. So every time when I'm done typing I have to highlight everything I typed and change the font manually. On an older computer I had I never had to do this.
I am trying to flip between Bylayer and color 150. If cecolor is bylayer set cecolor to 150 and if cecolor is 150 set cecolor to bylayer. It seems so simple but it's not working.
(defun c:22 () (setq cc (getvar "cecolor")) (cond ((= cc "Bylayer") (setvar "cecolor" "150") ) ((/= cc "Bylayer") (setvar "cecolor" "Bylayer") ) ))
Regarding the fuzzy, faded out text in the C3D Text Component Editor. (See this link) [URL] ....
Does really run Win7 with Clear Type Text disabled? We've tried that and with that disabled, everything else in Windows worse. I wish they would just fix this dialog in C3D.
Private WithEvents m_text As MiniToolbarTextEditor
but later, when you create the MiniToolBar, on the controls there is no AddTextEditor...????
Dim miniControls As MiniToolbarControls = m_MiniToolbar.Controls m_text = minicontrol.add HERE SHOULD BE THE TEXT EDITOR... I can add anything else! where is the text editor.
I tried the value editor, but it cannot take text!
A fellow cagemate is having some trouble with his Text Editor and I swore I'd (Cadtutor) solve it for him.the top is of the Text Editor as it usually is with the width adjustment ruler on top, the bottom image is taken from his ACAD which as you can see does not have this ruler. This happened yesterday and we have not managed to restore it back to how it was.Has he turned it off somewhere? How can he get it back?
Is it possible to modify .DXE files with a text editor?
I want to quickly find & replace the file paths DXE's are looking for (rather than run eattext every time I have a new drawing), but after opening in Notepad or Word AutoCAD displays error "...not valid extraction file."
BLK's were nice because files could be renamed and the schedule would still work. Now, the DXE will look for the old drawing rather than the one which has been renamed. Copying a file or using a template is impossible because you have to run eattext & create a new DXE every time the file name changes.
i have a drawing boarder block, which I need to edit some of the text.
When I open it up in the Block Editor and click on some of the text, I get a pop up with the fields in. When I change a value and close, it is reflected in the block. All normal.
However, with another text field, when I click it, it wont select, but just selects the other block of text. Of the three blocks I have, I can only edit one of them.
The strange thing is, if I am in the normal layout view, and double click the problem text I then get the pop up with all the fields and their values. Only when I change one of them it is not reflected on the viewpoint.
I got a problem in my .dwg drawing. When I go to Block Editor of my drawing , I get some unexpected text like below screeshot (red marked) which disturb my afterwards activities. How can I make them off?
Text Component Editor dialog box not working. URL....Here is an example.I can't modify Label text from Sections and pretty much everything in this area.I think everything happens because of the Country Kit I have installed.Is there any way to repair it? I have all service packs installed on CIVIL 3D 2012.
Here is the error i get: Cannot find the resource string number 25202 in resource - 551157760
I think the problem is coming from Country Kit. Since I put it and I'm using it as a template, my Civil 3D is coming with THOUSANDS of errors.
Within the enhanced attribute editor dialogue, I am wondering if there is a way to open up the multiline text editor with a keyboard shortcut, vs.. having to mouse click on the open editor box? The reason being, I can quickly fill out attributes that are single line text, but get hemmed up with having to stop and open up the multiline....
