I am attempting to copy and paste a part of a drawing from AutoCAD 2011 into ms, Excel or Word. I am able to copy within a vport so my whole screen is not copied. My problem is only 2D objects show up when I paste. I tried different visual styles and colors but still cant get my solid objects to appear.
View 7 RepliesI want to copy a value/text in cells from excel and paste it in specific mtxt that has been made in existing .DWG file.

One of my cells entry which should be copy is in D5 and the coordinate of mtxt in autocad is (17,46 15,03 0,000) both of those file is located in same folder
For some time I was using CorelDraw 12 with Windows XP and Excel 2007.I normally make some tables in Excel which I copy and paste into Corel using "Paste special"/Picture/Enhanced Metafile. In Windows XP there was no problem. Since I switched to Windows 7, I have the following problems:
- The font Wingdings 3 comes out as Arial.
- The second problem is a very strange thing: Some characters, such as ,-"; , always at the END of the line, just dissapear. It happens sometimes, not always, and I can't see absolutely no logic in it: I copy the same thing, paste it several times, and sometimes the comma comes out, sometimes not. I remember that this happened to me ONCE, long time ago, when I was still using XP, but then I restarted Corel and it stopped making problems. But now, with Windows 7, it happens almost all the time. I tried it on a few different PCs and I even tried it with Corel X4. Always the same problem.
I have a project for school that I am trying to complete at home, but realized that I don't have the proper SUD file at home. Is there any way I could copy and paste the already dimensioned object into the new SUD later?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using AutoCad LT 2013 at work. My issue is I have always been able to highlight and object and then enter my command and perform that command. Something happened and now when I highlight then enter my command and press enter it un-highlights the object and prompts me to highlight the object again. Also if I want to copy and paste a highlighted object it wont allow me unless I type in the command first. I can't figure out what I did.

I'm wanting to know if there is a way to Copy a selected area from Excel and Paste into Autocad and have it as lines and text objects?
Before everyone is entering the information in RED multiple times, once in excel and again in our cad file.
I don't want a data link because we are sending, only, cad files to our customers.
I have AutoCAD 2013 and often "paste special" excel files that automatically update when the excel file changes.The problem I'm running into is I work with a person who has uses an older version of CAD 2004, so I always save to the older format for him.
When I etransmit, I be sure to add the excel file, but when he opens the dwg, only the outline of the excel appears in his dwg, no content.

I have a type object with an opacity mask created in one document. When I copy and paste this object into a new file the text is pasted without the opacity mask attributes. I can separately copy and paste the opacity mask object but then I face a tricky realignment to repeat.
I am in the course of evaluating Xara, and it has a lot of good things going for it compared to Adobe, particularly in combining many of the features of ID and AI. The graduated color screening on objects is way better than AI.
However, I cannot find how to copy an object or text block and paste multiples at specific intervals. Both Pagemaker and InDesign have this feature, so I can't believe Xara overlooked it, as it is particularly useful when laying out say business cards 12 up on a sheet for printing. Yes, I have done a search on this forum and also studied Xara help files.
How can I remove the lines in the middle after I press and pull the objects.
Attached is the Untitle.jpg, to make more clearer to you. Blue is the wall and skyblue is the aquarium. I want the back and the front of the aquarium don't have any line in the middle but even I do shade command the fill of the color is still there. Cause if I explode and delete the line in the middle the colors that fill the aquarium are getting rid off See Untitled 2.Jpg to see what I mean. And also how can make the aquarium Untitle 3.jpg transparent?
I simply want to paste a series of cells from excel into an existing autocad table. About 8 rows, 1 column thick. I want the values to acquire the destination formatting too if possible. I do not want to create an OLE object or anything fancy. I have seen instructions to use "Paste Special" on forums, but I do not have this choice when I right-click. I'm sure this is possible.

2 - various win7 and XP users make changes to the Excel worksheet directly in Excel
3 - Win7 users open the DWG to see the correct and updated Excel data in the DWG
4 - XP users open the same DWG to see OLD data from a previous save and not the correct updated data on the linked worksheet
5 - XP users directly open the Excel file in Excel and are able to view the correct updated data BUT NOT IN THE DWG

The company I currently work for imports excel data via the paste special / link method.

How can i run plots and not have to check that box?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have autocad lt 2009, previously when I wanted to trace a drawing I would go to paint, copy the drawing and then paste it in autocad on one layer and do the drawing on another layer worked great, But now when I do the same process it doesn't work.....previously I could draw on the image, could edit the lines, copy, erase, move etc. But now when do this if I have to copy a line I select copy and when I click on the line I want to copy the jpg drawing goes away, or if I try to erase a line the drawing will get deleted, Do I need to uninstall autocad and reinstall?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project which up until recently used Excel VBA and AutoCAD. To the point, one of the important things this process did was grab a range of cells in the Excel file and copy them to the clipboard. This range of cells was a nicely formatted table with borders, cell filled colors, etc... and the VBA code would copy it to the clipboard before laumching AutoCAD. Once AutoCAD was opened a LISP program would automatically paste this into the model space. It made a lovely OLE object in AutoCAD with crisp, clear appearance.
We are now trying to do away with the VBA part in favor of .NET. I am really at a loss to explain why the code I used before will not work, nor will anything else I try:
VBA CODE
Sheets("Sheet2").SelectRange("B1:K93").Copy
VB.NET CODE
vExcelRange1 - vExcelSheet2.Range("B1:K93")vExcelRange1.Copy()
The .NET code is not working at al.
When using the Clipboard to move entities from one drawing to another I need to open the window Tools; Options; and that's it for the Paste as Block and Paste Options to be available. What I mean is do I need to do this with each new session of LT? That I will need to check out. I tried my Template and it allowed Paste without going to the Options Dialog in the same session.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using Autocad 2002.
I am having trouble copying out of a drawing (model space) which i received from someone else, and pasting into my own. The properties on the original dwg file suggest it was created Sept 2001. It appears to copy OK (copyclip/copybase), but when i jump into my file and try to paste, the command line just reads:
_pasteclip
and nothing appears in my model space.
I've tried zooming extents, exploding the original, changing layers and line types etc into the same as in my own dwg. I've also tried to convert/save the dwg file into dxf's and other version dwg's....without success.
I have about half a dozen drawings received from the same source, and they all let you copy data into them, but won't let you copy/cut out.
I have been having a problem with AutoCad 2012 LT when a am working in the model space I can you the ctrl c and ctrl p commands for a short amount of time and then they will not work. I can open a different model space and they will work in that one, but when I go back to the original one the will not work. I have tried shutting down autocad and the computer, but when I open everything back up the commands still will not work in that model space. I have reinstalled autocad and that brings them back for a short amount of time.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a table in Excel (well several tables actually) that I want to copy the contents from and insert into an AutoCad table.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMe and some fellows at work have been noticing a significant increase in the time it takes to copy with base point and paste into a different drawing file. Maybe it is just the 2012 version of the software , what has changed or how to minimize the time this takes. I don't see any reason it should take up to a minute to copy a few polylines from one drawing to the next.
