I'm trying to make a curved wall with different heights, but i can't manage to do the loft of the object. I keep getting "The selected entities are not valid."
I tried remaking all the little polylines but nothing seems to work..
I try to get all current entities for my own custom palette.
I tried it with ed.SelectionAdded and ed.SelectionRemoved but it doesn't work if I for example pressing ESC.
I want to get the Object Ids saved in a ObjectIdCollection and I don't want to run an autocad command every time.
I am editing a shape file and have encountered a warning which reads "The selected acdb entities are not connected". How to check which entity this warning is trying to connect to?

the problem is I don't know how to contrust a selectionset with all entites in the drawing selected. I've spent the major part of the day searchin here and in the API reference. But nothing.. how to create such a selection set. I'm using the COM API in C#.net
I'm working in a dynamic block and I think that I've had to mark or unmark some option in the program because since yesterday I can't use as an initial point of any parameter some central points. I mean, when I try to specify the initial point of any parameter (e.g.: rotation) where the four lines converge, the program tells me that the " 2d object is not valid".

This drawing appears visible in preview, but all type of AutoCad versions (full, LT from 2006 to 2013) claim it is unvalid.
It may have heavy gradients in it.Would there be any way to recover this file?

I am using OffsetTaget.isValid in my subassembly.But i realize that when i put this formula it checks the whole drawing for that target and if the target polyline exist even a piece of polyline in the drawing then C3D considers it for all sample lines.Is ıt possible to be able to check each single sample line if it is going to intersect that target polyline or not?

I'm trying to make an application that would take a drawing(dwg) and convert it to pdf. Since I can do it directly in autocad 2013, i presume that there should be a function in the API, that i could use to do the same. So far, i tried with AcadDocument.export(filename, FileExtension, AcadSelectionSet) with no luck. I cannot put PDF as a valid file extension.
Here's my code
Public sub SaveToPDF(ByVal psfilename As String)
Dim oAutocad As AutoCAD.AcadApplication = New AutoCAD.AcadApplication()
Dim oAcadDoc As AutoCAD.AcadDocument = oAutocad.Documents.Open(psfilename, True)
Dim sFolder As String = psfilename.Substring(0, psfilename.LastIndexOf("") + 1)

I have been running AutoCAD LT2002 on a very old desktop computer and am attempting to switch to my new laptop. I have the original CD, Serial No., and CD Key. I have switched computers many times in the past and have had no problems installing this software on any of them. This time, it is giving me a "serial number not valid" message and will not let me proceed with the installation. I had some difficulty entering the number initially (the label with the s.n. was quite faded, but I KNOW that the serial number is entered correctly now-- what do I do?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a mixed environment where I have some users are opening .dwg files with DWG TrueView 2011 and others with AutoCad LT 2012. I am able to open the file immediately with DWG TrueView 2011, but with AutoCad LT 2012 they display an error message of "Drawing File Not Valid". In order to view the file I need to go into File>Open> Choose the file located on a mapped drive and select "Open Read-Only". Is there a way this can be changed where I can automatically open files as read only? I have changed the permissions to the share to allow full control to a particular user for testing purposes and it appears that the files are not in read only when examining the properties of it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI don't know what happened, but my autocad file doesn't open up with a message "drawing file is not valid". I opened it at home once in Autocad 2012 - Student version and I open it at school usually every other day in Autocad 2012 - Educational version and it opens up properly at both places. But this tuesday I tried to open it, and it didn't open. I really need this file to be recovered because this drawing was complicated and I finished it. So, it will be a real pain to do it all over again plus the time I will waste. I am going to attach that file here.
View 8 Replies View RelatedOur staff can not get this file open. It says "Drawing file is not valid". It was emailed to them. He tried sending over as a 2000 drawing then tried it as 2007. We have AutoCad 2010 and 13 available to us, but no luck.
"Attached is a 2007 version of the same dwg. We have an Autodesk dwg viewer that we use here when we are sent a dwg and so far I have been able to open every file I have sent you with our viewer, so I am not sure why it is not working on your end. What I did though was opened the drawing in our autodesk viewer and then saved it from that."
I received a dwg file from my architect through e-mail. When I open it in Autocad LT 2004, a window pops up stating, "Drawing file is not valid." I forwarded the e-mail on to my boss with the same file and it opens perfectly on his version of Autocad LT 2004.
The only difference between our computers is that he is running Windows 7 and I am running Windows XP. The architect is running Windows 7.

looking for a way to read in the DXF data for a surface entity in AutoCAD2012. There's plenty on reading in simple objects (e.g. 3DFace, Points, etc.) but nothing on surfaces. The data itself is also not as intuitive as I would have hoped. The DXF reference PDF from AutoDesk shows 7 possible unique entries and the data I need is most likely stored in the proprietary data. So, in short I know where it is but how can I read it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've encountered a strange issue in PSDs I've inherited from another designer.
When I have a text layer selected with the type tool active, the font size reads correctly (say, 40px). When I actually select the text with the type tool, the font size gives a strange number (say, 38.74px).
See the screenshots below:
This is on OSX 10.8.3, Photoshop CS6.
How could I get the ObjectIdCollection of all entities (points, polyline) in a certain layer?
I am using the following code at this moment.
private ObjectIdCollection GetEntitiesOnLayer(string layerName)
{
Editor ed = doc.Editor;
TypedValue[] tvs = new TypedValue[1] { new TypedValue((int)DxfCode.LayerName, layerName) };
SelectionFilter sf = new SelectionFilter(tvs);
PromptSelectionResult psr = ed.SelectAll(sf);
[code]....
But it seems the function fetches more ObjectId than I expected.For example, if I draw 3 points and 2 polylines in "A" layer.
ObjectIdCollection obc = GetEntitiesOnLayer("A");
int i = obc.Count;
I was expecting i to be 5 (3 points and 2 polylines), but i seems to be more than 5.
