I relatively new at this 3D stuff however I've produced a model in 3D & need to add both realistic sky & sea but don't know how. I managed to add sky as a background but can't get the sea to work. Also I need to add the image of a solar panel onto a solid but can't get it to work either.

Revit :: Solar Panel - Unable To Tilt

Dec 18, 2011

I can place a solar panel on the roof, but cannot do anything with it.  When I try to tilt it from upright, it turns yellow and says "cannot rotate" .   Been stuck on this problem for a week now, and am quite frustrated as you can imagine.   Have tried every trick  that I and others have suggested to no effect. Seems to be constrained to one of my vertical reference lines.  Reference line is listed as the "host", but it's greyed out, so I can't change it.  Tried to disassociate from reference line, but can't.
 
Went in to "family" and noticed that there's and extrusion underneath the panel (invisible when placing the panel).  Don't know what it's there for, or if this has anything to do with it. I can't delete or modify it.
 
I've also tried to create my own solar panel, but can't figure out how to save it as "my own" family. 
 
I simply want to tilt the panel back about 35 degrees.  I've tried to tilt it in all different views.  Sometimes I can get it to tilt along the wrong axis, never on the one I want it to. Is there any way I can create my own panel with a sketch program, import it into Revit, and save it as a component?

3ds Max Animation :: Rigging Two-axis Solar Panel

Jan 22, 2014

I'm a cartographer not a 3D modeler! However, I've been tasked with creating a simple animation of a two-axis solar PV panel as it tracks the sun across the sky during a single day. 
 
I've got everything modeled but don't understand how to constrain and establish the motion relationships - IK chains, rigging and such. See attached image for my needs. I believe I have the rotation pivot points established.

Revit :: Cannot Rotate Solar Panel Orientation (vertical)

Dec 9, 2011

I can place a solar panel on the surface of the roof (flush with roof surface), but cannot tilt it up.  No matter what I try, an error message comes up saying "can't rotate element into this position".Have tried creating new panel, renaming it, etc.   The panel seems to have a constraint of some sort that I cannot override.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Grading Plan For Solar PV Site Or Golf Course?

Feb 28, 2013

how to use Civil 3D to create a grading plan for a solar PV site or a golf course?

Here is the situation.  We have a large 100 acre site that is not flat.  We want to do minimal grading to "smooth out the surface".  So that maximum slope on the site is 10%.  The site does not have to be graded completely flat.  We are trying to work with the existing contours and terrain as much as possible.

Is there some functiion or some way for Civil 3D to "smooth out a surface"?  We want to work with the existing slopes and contours of the site and just need a grading plan that will smooth out mounds, holes, or high slope areas.

3ds Max :: Solar System Animation

Aug 23, 2011

For one of the students first projects I would want them to make a solar system. Of course there would be spheres representing planets with pivot points in the center of the system (the sun) and some would revolve slower and some faster around the sun. Now I was able to create the planets and set the pivot points in the center (the sun) and have them rotate but I'm trying to take this a step further. I really want to create moons that would circle the planets.

That's where my problems starts. I have a planet that I want a moon to revolve around. I was able to change the moons pivot point to the center of the planet but the pivot point remains there while the planet circles the sun. What I need to do is have the moons pivot point locked onto the planet that way if the planet moves, then the moon moves along with it. In this case, the moon will be rotating around the planet as the planet rotates around the sun.

Photoshop :: Brush Panel Versus Brush Presets Panel

Oct 24, 2012

From the Brush Presets Panel, I choose Basic Brushes from the drop down menu. Then Replace. The new choice of brushes appear in the Brush Panel and in the Brush Presets Panel.
 
But in the Brush Panel, additional brushes appear.
 
There are always more brushes in the Brush Panel than the Brush Presets Panel whenever I Replace. The Brushes Preset Manager is populated with identical brushes as the Brush Presets Panel. What determines the additional brushes that appear in the Brush Panel?

Illustrator :: Drag Global Color Swatches From Color Panel To Gradient Stops In Gradient Panel

Aug 28, 2012

I have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
 
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.

AutoCAD LT :: How To Add New Panel To Home Tab

May 20, 2013

So, I have been learning how to customize the CUI. I have gotten as far as adding and arranging commands on the existing panels. Next, I added a new panel and added commands to the new panel. Then I dragged and dropped it onto the Home tab. But no new panel. I seem to have missed a step in getting the new panel recognized as being on the Home tab.

So, once you have created a new panel, is there a command in the CUI to activate the new panel?

AutoCad 2D :: How To Route Some Text On Panel

Jun 9, 2010

I've got a customer that I'm working with where we need to route some text on panel goods. However, as we all know, when you explode text it don't look too pretty since you lose the fancy curves and such.

That said, a solution to smoothing out the curves that doesn't require hours of tracing each letter with a spline? Any way that I can get some vector linework.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Exporting Flat Panel

Jan 5, 2014

Why can you only export a part as 2D sheet metal part? All parts are of some sort of machine component be it sheet metal of wood for CNC. The file prep is the same..

When will autodesk recognize that plenty of companies are in woodwork and Shopfitting? It's not only metalworking that benefit.

Luckily for me, I'm good at programming so I make my own tools but there are others less skilled. Open the umbrella autodesk......

AutoCAD Inventor :: Add Custom Panel To All Tabs

Oct 3, 2011

Just digging into 2012 and I can't seem to locate a custom toolbar UI. I have a set of customizations that I distribute to my group thru a shared drive and we are used to them all being in one place, in every environment. It appears that in order to do this I have to customize the ribbon tabs for each environment individually and manually? That can't be the case though, very counterproductive, there must be another way.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Assembly Panel Is Greyed Out

Dec 14, 2011

I am using IV2009 on Windows 7 64bit. I am somewhat new to Inventor, maybe this is simple.

The Aseembly Panel is greyed out in the model I am working on, see attached. There are also a lot of broken constraints that I am unable to work on becaue the red cross is greyed out also. (I did try open this in IV2012, with the same result on the ribbon assembly panel)

I do not know exactly how it happened, as I did not create it; to my understanding it occurred while restructuring the assembly tree in a lower level assembly. This model is made up of lots of MDT imported parts, and some step parts as well. This model is also very heavy, and took too long for its size to load on my 32GB notebook.
