How I can extrude this text in AutoCad2006 . I face a problem when I try to extrude text in AutoCad
Here is a AutoCad file with text , can extrude 30 mm
(Note : that text is not English language )
I'm fairly new to the world of CAD, and I was just working on a phone case for my friend when I tried to extrude geometry text, but couldn't because the OK and Apply options were greyed out. I tried embossing and making a hole, but they were greyed out for them too. I tried messing with the settings to see if I could fix it, but I still couldn't. I'm really confused right now, I remember doing something similar for a case I made for myself.?

I want to explode text in a particular font and then extrude

I'm trying to extrude some text with the font type "CommercialScript BT". In Inventor 2011 this was not a problem. In Inventor 2012 and 2013 I get the error:
Create extruded feature failed
Part4: Errors occurred during update
Extrusion3: Could not build this Extrusion
Self-intersecting loop found in this profile. Remove the intersection by adding a sketch point at curve intersections or by changing non-profile geometry to construction geometry.
Is there a way to solve this? I have tried to extrude other fonts without any problem. I can also extrude one single letter with the font "CommercialScript BT" without any problem but as soon as I writes a word I get the error.

I am currently trying to make a bracelet with text engraved in the outside of it with autocad, and my current problem is that I have to make the text 3D before I can subtract it from the bracelet. I am using autocad for mac, which means I dont have the express tools, most notably textexp. I am fairly sure that, without other programs, making 3d text with autocad for mac is impossible. I have tried making text in adobe illustrator, outlining it, and exporting it to autocad, but when I explode it (with the default explode command) and extrude the text, it looks like this:
As you can see, very few of the letters get properly extruded, and some arent even effected at all. I've tested other fonts, and they all have the same problem, albeit with some differences in exactly which letters are changed. Except papyrus, in which none of the text gets extrudedhow to make outlined text from illustrator extrude properly, be my guest! The same goes if you have a different way to make 3D text.
I just upgraded from CS4 to CS6 Design Web Premium Extended version. I'm working on a mac with OS 10.6.8. I have plenty of ram etc.
I've tried several tutorials to see what the 3D features are, but I can't even get past step 1 of selecting the extrude to 3D option.
I've tried selecting the layer and still grayed out.
I tried selecting the copy with the type tool and still grayed out.
Not sure if this should be a PS ? or not.... I have often heard if you can do it PS you can do it in AE.
I want to change the face of my text. Not color as with RGB selection, but with a pattern or texture.
IE: Billet Aluminum face with rivets or Diamond Plate look.
Normally I would matte it, but I also want to Extrude it For a "fat 3d look"
PS or AE?
Matte is not a renderable option using 3drt, Cheating it, using an alpha add mode and an alpha track is not getting a render. Is this a job for PS to create my text as a 3d text and then import it as a comp? Or will I lose 3d like in AI?
I just sat down to use 3Ds Max '12 for the first time today after upgrading from 2010. This will probably be a simple fix, but I can't get any text to cap with the extrude modifier or bevel modifier. It happens with every typeface I've tried. I even tried using the cap holes modifier. Never had this problem with previous version of 3Ds.

When I chose EXT, then "T" for taper and put in the angle of 9° and a length of 12, I get a very short piece which tapers in the wrong plane.

Is there any way to get the length of that extrude?
I know its possible to get the sweep length like this. Is there a way to get the extrude length as well?

I cannot extrude a 2D shape that is drawn by lines.It appears to be linked but is not .I can see the problem saying not a closed loop or a constraint but don't know how to fix it.

So I started on this project recently and was not the original modeler. This section of pipe has some problems where I'm guessing a sweep went wrong. I've tried everything I know to do to try to fix this section but haven't had any luck.
- This model has no tree and is shown as one soild "base"
- I tried to extrude cut the bad section
- I tried spliting the bad section
- I exported the file as an IGES and then tried to remove bad section
I'm sure there are some other round about ways I tried that I can't think of but in the end nothing has worked.
I'm using the extrude tool so that the rectangle that I'm extruding (downwards) will taper (and become thinner at the bottom). However, when I do this, even as a fraction (.01) it seems to get bigger at the bottom. How do I make it thinner at the bottom, not bigger?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was watching on of the "Sales" videos on Autodesk.com. I saw them extruding a part surface to another surface of an imported part. I have a need to do this. When I try to extrude my part, I cant pick the surface that I need it to go to.
The video I am watching is here. Its titled "Native Translators". They show the surface being extruded at about the 0:53 mark.
The problem that I have is while working in the assembly, I double click on my part to edit it in the assembly. Next I chose Extrude and "To Next", but I am unable to pick the surface I need it to go to. The surface is in another part that is in the assembly. The part I am trying to extrude is adaptive, like in the video.
I did notice that in the video, when they pick the "to Next", the add/cut/intersect is greyed out.
I know my subject is somewhat mis-named, because I gather that you cannot really extrude from a 3D sketch, however I am looking for a way to accomplish what extruding a cut from a 3D sketch would accomplish.
The problem is this: I have a simple 2D sketch that I've projected onto a curved surface (imagine a square projected onto the outside of a hollow cylinder). Now that I have a 3D sketch on the surface of the cylinder, I want to use that sketch as a "cookie cutter" through one wall of the cylinder.
If I were to simply extrude the cut from the 2D sketch, the "cookie" is wider at the edges than at the center. I want the cut to be perpendicular to the projected 3D sketch at all points.
I've attached a simple example that illustrates my problem.

how i can extrude as shown in attached PDF.
Ive tried offset plane, sketch and extrude through all, but nothing seem to work.
The diameters im trying to extrude through are Ø177.4 to Ø141.7.
Is there a command to extrude something at like a an angle. Im not talking about taper but something that could extrude at an angle.

In Auto CAD 2007, if I want to extrude multiple objects, I can give reference length by pointing start and end(the obeject will extrude with positive value), but in 2012 I can’t use reference length. Sub-command “Direction” can use z-axis length only. How can I use like 2007?

I have two boxes stacked on top of each other. On the top I have a rectangle which I want to extrude down through the first box and partially through the second box and then subtract the extruded rectangle from the two stacked boxes. Extrude works fine, but when I use subtract it only removes the area from the first box. The bottom box remains solid despite having "extruded" the rectangle down through the bottom box as well.
I've tried joining the two boxes into a single object before using extrude and subtract, but for some reason the join command won't work in this case.
I can't extrude this piece. I know i have loops but i don't know where and how to fix them!
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm just starting to get my head around VBA in AutoCad. I have managed to write a code that creates a 2D truss in polylines by coordinates I have arranged in an Excel file. Now I need to extrude each member into a cylinder. Well Im not really that smart yet, having some hard time with choosing path and region.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a 2D profile that I copied from another drawing consisting of arcs and lines. I have converted them all to polylines and closed the shape ready for extrusion.
I haven't come across this problem before, but when I extrude the resulting extrusion doesn't seem to follow the original profile.
The first pic is the profile I'm using and the second zoomed in to one of the arcs.
Sometimes after I have created a sketch I can not extrude it, sometimes it wont let me click on the profile, other times it will only let me cut away material not add it like I would like. I am sure it has something to do with something fundamental I am doing wrong within the sketch, but I am not sure what.

What is the best way to extrude this line into a 1/2" DIA dowel? I have tried the revolve command and sweep command without any luck... I know the sweep command would probably work the best but I can't seem to draw a 1/2" dia circle perpendicular to the line.

To make it even more difficult, the inner portion of the blade needs to be cut at an angle so that the extrusion ends at the cones. See attached pdf reference sketch. The result for the flat pattern blade edge should be two parabolic curves.
