AutoCad 3D :: How To Remove Part Of Solid That Enclosed Within Green Surfaces

Jul 2, 2013

I've just started learning AutoCAD and came across my first obstacle I don't know how to work around. Here's what I'm trying to do.

I draw two lines and two circles and then trim the excessive parts as in the picture (in general it can be an area composed of various types of lines, straight lines, arc, and likely with rounded corners).

Then extrude to the height 2. This makes 4 surfaces (green). Now I build a solid 'around' the surfaces. In this example I draw a rectangle and extrude to the height 1 (red). And my question is: how do I remove the part of the solid that's enclosed within the green surfaces? Subtraction doesn't work as I don't subtract solid. Slicing doesn't work either as it's more than one surfaces. For the same reason I can't turn it into a solid.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Remove Line Inside Solid Object / Transparent Solid Objects?

Sep 16, 2013

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?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Importing IGES File As Solid Part?

Apr 22, 2013

I am using inventor 2013. I currently have a IGES file that doesn't show the surfaces on my inventor drawings. The include all surfaces feature is check but still doesnt show all the surfaces. I just recently imported a IGES file as a soild part but i do not rememeber how i did it. Once I clicked on the IGES file to open and then click options. What do I fill out on the option dialog box that the IGES file imports as a solid part and shows all surfaces on my inventor drawings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split Part Of A Solid For Edit Then Reassembly?

Apr 16, 2012

I have a solid body but I need to make a part of it removable. I want to be able to lift it off and put it back on. The problem is that at the moment it is all one piece. So what I need to know how to do is remove just this one face from my solid, turn it into a seperate part so that I can create a lip on the solid for it to set on once it is reasymboled.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Duplicate Solid Body 4 Times In Part File?

Mar 31, 2012

I want to duplicate a solid body 4 times in a part file.  i did that by going for circular pattern.  But after creating that, i had to add on few more features.  I did that in parent solid body.  then I noticed that other 3 solid body is not getting updated.  I know in assembly file it gets updated but any way in part file.

Is there a was to export an assembly into a single solid part.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Non-associative Solid Base Feature In Second Part

Sep 19, 2013

“Associative body copy API Sample” 2013 API help.

The above code in the API help shows how to do an associative or a non-associative copy in an assembly of one part into another part. ..BUT the non-associative copy does not always work correctly....

I have been testing this sample code and notice the following limitations with the lower part entitled “Create a non-associative solid base feature in the second part”...

The code uses the proxy body for the source object but it does not use the proxybody for the target object and therefore the relative positioning is wrong for the nonparametricbasefeature when it is created in the target object if the real target body is in a different place than the targetbodyproxy (e.g. it has been rotated/moved in assembly space).

I notice that if you perform this manually using the “copy object” button the relative positioning is maintained correctly even if both target and source objects have been rotated/moved in the assembly...

AutoCAD Inventor :: Hole Feature In Solid Body Part File And Bolted Generator

Nov 21, 2011

If we require to create patterned holes thru a number of solids, this works great only requiring the one hole feature.

However, once an assembly is created with the parts, (these parts obviously have their own derived individual solids in them) when needing to place a bolted generated assembly to the patterned holes. It won't recognise the pattern.

So I've come to the conclusion that the bolted generator/drop place function really needs improvement for solid body modelling technique. (Mind you, the BG needs a complete rethink because its at about 50% complete).

What I can see needs to be added, is the functionality of the parts recognising the hole pattern. e.g. when using the make components function it gives an option to add a link to the hole feature.

My only other option at present is to create the holes within the assembly file and transfer the hole feature to each part file. This obviously loses the parametric functionality.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Moving Solid Part In Assembly Using Grip Snaps And Specific Vector Direction

Sep 4, 2013

Is there a way to move a solid part in an assy using grip snaps and a specific vector direction .

Please look at the attachment,here you will see a gusset positioned on top of a foot plate,the gusset needs to be moved so that it makes contact with the cylinder,it will then be welded. The problem is more difficult because the gusset is offset to the axis of the cylinder and the precise distance is unknown unless worked out using trigonometry.

The question is what is the best method of moving the gusset to the precise distance and direction ?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Select Non-solid Entities On Solid Layer

Mar 19, 2012

We have this need to have all of the solids in a drawing to be placed in the "solid" layer.

Sometimes folks are drafting lines to develop these solids, and keeping the lines on the "solid" layer, rather than moving them to another layer, or deleting them altogether.

I could get folks to run this command before leaving the drawing.

I'm thinking something along the lines of:

Select all entities that are on the solids layer that are not solids.

If nil, great, do nothing.

If entities are selected, let me do something with them.

I'm hoping the following can be modified ever so slightly.

 (setq non_solid (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "3DSOLID")(cons 8 "solid"))))

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split A Single Solid Body Into 2 Solid Bodies?

Sep 19, 2012

I'm trying to split a single solid body into 2 solid bodies. The problem is that the body I'm trying to split consists of two separate pieces. I can split a body when it is a single piece no problem, but I'm having the problem when the two pieces are not joined at all.

When I try and split it on the origin plane it gives this error:

"Creating parting line failed. Could not build this Split"

When I try and split it on a work plane lying on one of the pieces it gives this error:

"Creating parting line failed. Modeling failure in ASM. Redefine inputs."

Or, another variation on this erorr:

"Creating parting line failed. Split feature could not create two bodies. Change the Split Tool so that split feature can create two bodies."

AutoCAD 2013 :: Converting Complex Solid Surface To Solid Model

Aug 12, 2013

I have finally created the shell of the complex surface that you see. This is only a section of the part because I cannot show the whole thing for proprietary reasons. I formed solid surfaces using the network command. The propblem is that it will not convert to a solid because the surface seams are not "water tight." When the network command created the solid surfaces, the surface seams do not exactly match the lines so there are gaps in all the seams. I have tried blending, patching, etc. and nothing works. how to convert this to a solid without losing the outlines and the shape?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Hatching Looking Solid But Its Not A Solid Pattern

Dec 13, 2012

i am having a hatching issue, it seems no matter what hatch pattern i use and what hatch scale, alot of the hatch looks solid instead of the pattern i want, for example i am using currently ANSI37 @ Annotative with a scale of .20 and on the same paperspace page one plan with the hatch shows the cross hatching and the other one below looks solid (see attached) now i can go and say change the hatch scale and it reverts to the cross hatching, but then when i zoom out it goes back to "solid" is it a graphical issue?
