AutoCad 2D :: Offset - New Variable For Clever Trimming?

Dec 21, 2011

Has noticed that the offset command has changed in 2010? (unless i am going mad) see image below. i'm sure if you offset a polyline, with no node at the crossing point, in pre-2010, it would end up as second image.

But now i get the 3rd and 4th types, which i admit is pretty good for offsetting both sides and deleting original construction line, but not always better that the original method. Is there a variable or option somewhere to change the performance?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Offset Lisp Routine To Offset Selected Line?

Jun 7, 2013

I need an offset lisp routine to offset a selected line a set distance on each side of the selected line and change the layer of the offset lines to the current layer, and then keep prompting me to select the next line for offsetting until I'm finished.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Station-offset Label Style That Will Drop Trailing Zeros In Offset?

May 14, 2012

I am trying to create a station-offset label style that will drop the trailing zeros in the offset section - e.g. 15' instead of 15.00', but if the offset is not at a whole number, e.g. 15.01, etc.  it will display the entire offset.

I created two expressions:  IF(OFFSET-TRUNC(OFFSET)=0,.1/12,.00000001/12)

and this one:  IF(OFFSET-TRUNC(OFFSET)!=0,.1/12,.00000001/12)

I then created two offset components, one called truncated, and one called full, and assigned the heights to match the expressions. 

I have attached the file, the style is ACHD-Sta Off-Rt [copy]

AutoCad 2D :: Length Of Offset For Each Offset

Nov 28, 2013

I need a pit configuration, and I use the offset command to offset a base polyline to first 10 m and then 3 and so on.. is there a way to do this in an automatically way, that you can choose the lenght of the offset for each "offset" (i.e. 1st 10 m, 2nd 3, 3rd 10 m, 4th 3 m, and so on. I am actually using civil 3D.

GIMP :: Unbound Variable Error With No Variable?

Nov 5, 2013

I'm attempting to write a batch script to add some layers to a pre-existing image and save a copy. I've gone through the tutorial, and have run the demo code from Basic_Batch with no errors, but my (what I think of as simple) script throws an "Error: eval: unbound variable: ?" It also seems to cascade the error to other scripts, as I then get "unmatched parentheses: 2" errors from what I assume to be the script immediately following my own during Script-Fu load. This occurs whether running from batch or clicking "Refresh Scripts" from the Script-Fu menu.

What I could find on this forum and Google suggests that I may be required to 'define' one or more of my variables before using it, but for the life of me, I can't figure out which one that would be, and the error (reporting that '?' is undefined!?) I've quintuply (probably more ~_^) checked my parenthesis matching, but they look fine to me.

In case this was an encoding issue, I've tried saving my .scm file as both UTF-8 and ANSI. I should also note that I'm running Windows 7 x64 in English-US.

Script:

(define (script-fu-build-imagebasefilemytext)(let*((image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE basefile basefile)))(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))(title (car (gimp-text-layer-new image mytext "Courier" 18 UNIT-POINT))))(gimp-image-add-layer image title -1)(gimp-image-clean-all image)(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable "K:\\Images\\Temp.gif" "Temp.gif")));

Since I intend for this script to only be run from batch, I haven't bothered including the typical register stuff.

Maya Animation :: Audio Offset Will Not Scrub At Offset Frame

Apr 9, 2013

I am using MAYA 2012 on Windows 7. When I import audio (.WAV) it works fine, but if I offset it to a later frame the waveform moves to the right frame but when scrubbing the audio stays at 0. Making if very difficult to lip-sync. I have tried re-caching, playing the scene all the way through and all other options I have seen online.

AutoCad :: Trimming A Door Jamb

Nov 18, 2011

New to Autocad and using Autocad 2010. I am trying to trim a door jamb and attached my project in this thread. The attached picture coming close to finishing the drawing. There are other door jambs in the drawing that I have not started.

Trimming the door jamb I have selected several lines. Appearing in the attachment as two horizontal lines located above the lower left square and the left vertical outside double line border. These are my step to trim these lines.

Extend Command. Select both horizontal lines. Press Enter to end the command.

Trim Command: Select both horizontal lines once more. Enter.
Select vertical outside lines. Enter twice.
Trim Command running select both horizontal lines again. press Enter.

Completing the jamb in the drawing the two horizontal lines still there only as dashed lines. After saving the project these lines appear as solid lines.

Coming close with these steps. Is it possible to show me how to trim the door jamb following these guide lines I have outlined.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Trimming SDF / SHP File With Multiple Polygons

Is there a way of trimming an SDF or SHP file with multiple polygons within a boundary buffer zone, but keep the entire of all of the crossing polygons.

I have managed to create a feature overlay for the trimming selection but the 'Union' command creates a new layer with all of both SDF files I'm comparing, not just the ones within the buffer zone.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Trimming Multiple Faces At Once

Feb 3, 2012

how to cut or split more than one face of a surface model in one go. The only way (it seems) is to use the Trim command for every face you need to trim, whereas I want to choose the cutting tool (a plane or face) and then choose a whole lot of faces (by holding CTRL and clicking the faces) and trim them all in one go. Is this possible? I can do this in Fusion, but Fusion is way too slow on my PC compared to Inventor.

I also tried extruding a sketch through the surfaces to cut them, but it doesn't work (Inventor complains that there aren't any solids to cut).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Copying A Component And Then Trimming

Apr 6, 2012

So I make a line and then make an arc on that line. I dimension the arc so that it is 180 degrees and I dimension it with a specific length. I then use the rectangular pattern command to copy multiple arcs onto this line. I now need to trim the bottoms of the arcs away (the parts of the line under each arc) But once I select the trim command I cannot trim this area! The lines I need to trim won't even highlight. It appears they are locked by a dimension made when I copied the arcs across the line. This dimension doesn't appear to be able to be deleted.

AutoCad :: Trimming Polar Arrayed Rectangle

However, if i try the same thing without polar arraying ( i.e just by drawing the two rectangles similarly) it works. I would like to know what might be causing this.

AutoCad 2D :: Dimensions Going All Over Place After Trimming A Line

Mar 22, 2011

A coworker and I are having the same problem with dimensions. For example, we have a polyline that has been dimensioned and then we will either need to trim or break a small portion out. When we trim or break the line the dimensions on that line fly all over the place so we end up needed to re-dimension everything. We have had this problem in AutoCAD 2008, 2010, and 2011. Maybe we need to change a variable? The polylines have a zero Z-axis and it does not happen everytime we trim or break but enough to become annoying. Our CAD Manager had as try to disassociate the dimension, break the line, and then reassociate it but that didn't work; the dimensions were still shifted around.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Trimming Intersecting Parts In An Assembly

Oct 29, 2010

I need to trim a part that intersects with many other parts in several different sub-assemblies - on an angle.

   **Attached is an image of my problem.

Split tool is disabled.  It is only usable once I drill down into the assembly/part  - it will not select the other cutting objects higher up the browser stack.They become ghosted.  

What I need is a tool that projects intersection lines.  Does Inventor have something like this?  Standard projection lines on the part is not working because the cutting objects are not 90 degrees angled to the part to be cut.   

This may be easy,.. I am just not seeing a way to do this with out a bunch of work-a-rounds.

I make the button in IR just as I want it, with a transparent background and everything. How do I save it as a jpg so as to get just the rounded rectangle, and not all the white background? I know I can trim it down, but there's still the white around the borders. How do you save a non-square-like area?
