AutoCad 2D :: Turning Off 3D Modeling (shift And Pan)

Jun 16, 2011

I have put the Pan function on my middle mouse button. (If that wasn't already standard).

But every time I use shift to deselect and pan at the same time, it will rotate my 2D drawing in 3D.

Is there a way to turn that off? Without removing Pan from my middle mouse button.

I have turned off the View Cube, but that doesn't work.

I can of course try to take my finger off the shift key when i Pan, but I automatically do both commando's at the same time and it will be a pain to teach my self other ways.

3ds Max Modeling :: Shift Dragging Edges On Local

Jun 16, 2011

I am trying to model an object with planes using edge extrusions with shift drag. The issue I am having when using this method is getting lots of unplanar surfaces (even after using the make planar button). This is because max will not let me shift drag an edge straight back on its local axis to keep it perfectly planar. See image below.

I am wanting to extrude out this edge straight back on its local axis. But the result just makes it go straight up.

3ds Max Modeling :: Turning Plane Into 3D Objects (like Box / Sphere)

Dec 22, 2012

I'm working on a complex closed object shape originally made from a plane and want to do Boolean to it.

So when a plane get Boolean-ed with a sphere, it just turns to plane with a hole. Different when a standard box get Boolean-ed with a sphere, it turns into a box with a 1/2 sphere hole.

My question is, is it possible to turns a plane into solid 3D objects like box, sphere,etc..? So it's able to get Boolean-ed correctly?

I add a picture of simpler analogy
p.s. the box and the box-ed plane is an editable poly

AutoCAD Inventor :: Merits Of Layout Modeling Or Multi-Body Part Modeling?

Nov 16, 2012

As CAD administrator at my company, which is in the process of implementing Inventor/Vault, I am quite sold on the Layout Modeling/Multi-body part modeling functionality that Inventor supports.  Among other things I believe there is a large payoff in assembly stability and simplicity.  However, this workflow is very different from the conventional methods of modeling individual parts and manually constraining assemblies.

AutoCad 3D :: Turning 2D Skateboard Into 3D?

Aug 3, 2011

I entered a skateboard design contest and I have completed the 2D layout for the board, however, I want to go a step further and make it into a rough 3D illustration.

Here's what I have:

TOP:

SIDE:

My idea is to extrude the outline of the board for so many units, then take the side view item to slice through the side of the extruded board outline. After that I plan to delete the unnecessary 3D material.

Essentially I want to get to this and then delete the leftovers, but be left with a 3D shell of the board:

AutoCad 2D :: Turning Off Parametrics

Aug 2, 2012

Acad Architecture 2013 30 day trial running as Options>Profiles>Autocad.

How to turn off parametrics? In Paperspace, things keep on acquiring parametric constraints and then can't be moved without affecting other things. All too advanced for me.

Parametric>Constraint Settings>AutoConstrain>Clear All is set (which produces warning that "Geometric constraints will not be applied" - hopefully) and >Geometric>Infer geometric constraints is unchecked.

Yet still new contraints keep coming. And even when all elements (whole drawing) is selected and Parametric>Delete Constraints is clicked, some constraints remain.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Using Shift Key For Ortho When There's Images

If I have images in my dwg, and I want to temporarily use the shift key for ortho, it doesn't work. On the cammand line, it reads, "Image (s) not selected. Select Images (s) then issue command." I am not trying to manipulate an image. Why is it defaulting to an image object?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Working Of Shift Overrides

Jul 16, 2013

I am have an issue with the shift overrides not working when there is an image under where i am working.

In the same drawing for example i can use shift to either select more than one point in a polyline, or to change between trim and extend or to fillet with a radius or to a point.

but when i try to do this with an image in the background it doesn't work. I need the image as i am tracing shapes.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: 2012 Crashing On Grid Shift?

Sep 13, 2012

I am attempting to query some mapdata from a NAD27 drawing to a NAD83 drawing and when I do a quick view or a query, Map3D 2012 ( a new installation on Windows 7) crashes. I have the NTV2_0.GSB in the c:ProgramDataAutodeskGeospatial Coordinate SystemCanada directory and have edited the NAD27toNAD83.gdc file accordingly but to no avail.

This setup has been working on my previous Map installations (Map3D 2007 on XP, Map3D 2010 on XP & Map3D 2010 on Windows 7) so I know I have working configuration files.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Coordinate Shift On DEM Import Vs Mapimport

Mar 8, 2013

Mapimport command maintains integrity of x,y coordinates. Adding dem information to a civil3d TIN surface does NOT.

Detailed screen shot(s) attached.

Detailed:

I am trying to create a tin surface in autoCAD from a raster dataset in GIS. Originally, my raster dataset was in UTM's (Zone 10N), and my CAD drawings were in CA State Plane (zone 2, US feet). Both NAD83. But I have, to date, been unable to get AutoCAD to correctly convert between these two coordinate systems. I thought, hmm.. let's just convert to State Plane in GIS and then add to the surface definition in AutoCAD. I had hoped this approach would 'go easy' on autoCAD as it would not need to do any conversions. Turns out, that does not appear to work either. In fact, it is even further 'off' than before...  I hope the attached PDF illustrates the situation clearly. AutoCAD's mapImport command works great. The surface boundary can be imported and appears to have the correct coordinates. The surface, with the dem added to the definition, however, does not. It is shifted down and to the left.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Random Shift In Northing And Easting

Jan 21, 2013

Civil 3D 2013, SP1, Windows 7, 64-bit -

I've got a user who imports points into the survey database and RANDOMLY the points will be shifted on average 27 feet in the northing and 4 feet in the easting.  She notices this because she'll check a point and see tht the northing and easting varies from the grid northing and easting (I've attached an image to view)  She will then discard the drawing and begin a new one only to import the data and now it imports correctly.  The behavior is completely random and it's happening on multiple projects. 

All the projects begin with the same template.  All the settings (drawing settings and survey settings) have been set to US Survey Foot.  It's weird because once the issue is noticed it can be fixed by simply beginning another drawing and re-importing the data, but it has happened on projects where she's already got pre-existing data.
