AutoCAD .NET :: Plots All Blocks To PNG - Open DWG / Get List Of All Blocks

Nov 30, 2012

I have a program that plots all blocks to png - open a dwg, get a list of all blocks, insert each into an empty dwg, zoom extents, and plot using the OOTB PublishToWeb PNG.pc3.  In the attachments is an example of the problem.  When I do this manually from a layout, I get the correct image.  When I plot from code using the same PC3 file, draworder is being ignored.  

It works if I apply transparency to the block and use ps.PlotTransparency = True, but I would prefer not to have to tell the user to change the block definitions.  Is there a plotsettings property I am missing?

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Stretching Same Parameter In All Blocks In Drawing From One Field?

Jul 15, 2011

How do I manipulate a height parameter all of the dynamic blocks in the drawing from one single field? Say a field located in the drawing properties or on the drawing itself.

For example:  Multiple blocks of different walls of same height with other blocks of things on located on those walls, dependant on the wall height, all linked to and changed by a single field. Possibly a Wall Height field located in the custom tab of the drawing properties.

I can pickout each of the blocks and change them at the same time in properites menu because they all share the same parameter name.  I would just like to have that height parameter of every block in the drawing, that has that specific parameter controled by a single field.  Which I could enter a new height at anytime that would change every block in the drawing to that height.

AutoCAD .NET :: Creating Block And Insert Into List Of Blocks

Apr 26, 2013

I'm new to .net for autocad, but very familiar with c#. I studied some samples about creating a block from c#. I have a form for some basic input. When the user presses OK the code checks if the blockname is already in use. When no it creates the block using following
 
private void make_block() { double nextpoint = 0.0; double linedis = 7.3634; Document doc = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Database db = doc.Database; Editor ed = doc.Editor; using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) {
[code]......

The code runs successfully (meaning i don't get any errors), but when I want to insert the block it isn't in the list of blocks.

AutoCad :: Blocks Not Retaining Their Settings From Drawing To Drawing

Mar 5, 2012

I am editing an existing block to change the lineweight and have tried using the REFEDIT command as well as double clicking the block to take me into the block editor and making my changes there. I am sucessfully able to edit my block and make the changes using both of these methods. Where I am running into an issue is that the block I have edited only retains its new settings within the drawing that I changed it in. If I insert that same block into a new drawing I have to re-edit the block again the make the changes that I want. Why are my blocks not retaining their settings from drawing to drawing.

I've been working on fixing our metric template at work, and there's a drawing scale that I can't figure out to delete. I can rename it, but can't edit or delete it.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Auto Update List Of Xrefs In Drawing?

May 3, 2012

I have been trying to get a list of xrefs contained within a drawing to auto update by using Rtext.

I have got as far as using the following diesel expression.

Xref's in this file are indicated as - Xref name [Filepath]

$(Xrefs,3,)
$(Images,3,Images in this file: )

This gives me more or less what I want but I dont want to show the file path. What changes to the expression I need to do to achieve this.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Anchor Multiple Parts List Together On Drawing

Jun 21, 2011

I am creating a template for our title block.  We normally will have multiple assembly called out on one drawing.  So I created a parts list without headings and built the headings into the title block.  The first parts list I enter will anchor to my border, but when i enter the second parts list, it will not anchor to my previous parts list like I would like.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: List Of Drawings From One Drawing To Next

Dec 5, 2012

I have the following string of code, that I'll write in everyone's start-up suite. I'm able to retrieve a list of files I want to modify, for whatever reason.  (One example, when plotting drawings with layouts, sometimes the shadeplot setting is wireframe, and not classic hidden, though it's been set up in our templates).

The huge question is, can I get a list of drawings to a variable in one drawing, and have access to that variable list, in the next drawing I open?  I'll iron out the bugs on read-only statuses, or manipulating drawing states later.

(defun GetDrawings ()
(setq currentpath (getvar "dwgprefix"))
(command "pspace")
(setq DrawingList (dos_getfilem "Select a file" currentpath "Drawing files (*.dwg)|*.dwg|All files (*.*)|*.*||"))
(setq ListOfDrawings (cdr DrawingList))
(setq DrawingPath (nth 0 DrawingList))
[code]...

AutoCAD Inventor :: Differences In Measurements Between Part List And Drawing

Jul 19, 2012

I've done a 3D frame in Inventor 2012 and after doing a 2D with a partlist chart I found differences between lengths. The length of the part list was the first one, the frame was modified and the partlist didnt update.

Found out that the d18 parameter was a fixed number. I managed to change it manually by changing the G_L parameter to d18.How can I set up my inventor to update the part length automatically?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Sheet List - Drawing Revision Number

Jan 20, 2011

I am using the sheet list table to generate a table of contents. I add the "Drawing Revision Number" column to the table, but when it generates the list it does not include the field.

Is there any way to add the "Sheet Revision Number" instead since this is what property is actually adjusted in the sheet's properties? (i never change the "Drawing Revision Number")

OR is the solution to change the "Drawing Revision Number"? Where do I change this property at? Is this property applied to all sheets within a drawing?
