AutoCad :: Right Click To Change Scale Is Kind Of Moody When Placing Views On Sheet

Oct 20, 2013

The sheet set manager is an awesome tool (i just started using it a week ago). The problem is, whenever I place a view on my sheet, (by right clicking>place on sheet) and it says "Scale: 1:1 Right-click to change scale", i right click and all i get is:

"Invalid point. Specify insertion point:"

But here's the twist: Sometimes it does work (like 10% of the time) but most of the time it annoyingly doesn't. here are some photos:

*i'm using Autocad 2014 32bit

*using Autocad 2011 32bit in our office but still experience the very same case.

as you can see i have already attaced the "site development plan" view here (after a few tries) cadtutor 1.jpg

this is how i place views on my sheets. i can also drag and drop, but i prefer right clicking it. (are there other ways? share them too!) cadtutor 2.jpg

here, i've already clicked place on sheet and it's asking me to right click if i want to change the scale. cadtutor 3.jpg of course i do and i need to, but this: cadtutor 4.jpg

like i said, sometimes it works. I do a few rituals (i just invented) before getting it to show this scales list like right clicking rapidly or holding rightclick repeatedly but not rapidly. and "SOMETIMES" it does work. but more often, it doesn't. cadtutor 5.jpg

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Lines / Section Views - Unable To Change From Layer 0

Jul 15, 2012

I created sample lines and section views for my road projects. I set all line works to appropriate layers except for "Segment and Points". Cannot change from layer "0".

I right click the existing grade on my section views, click "edit section style", click "display", then change the layer of Segments and points and click "OK", "apply".

Go back to my drawing, verify the layer but  still layer "0". I tried so many times, read the manual, call friends but no luck. I am tempted to "explode" my drawing.

Mudbox :: How To Change Views

Nov 23, 2011

I installed Mudbox 2012 just a few minutes ago. And almost immediately I ran into this problem. All images of objects in the official Mudbox documentation have a shiny brownish appearance by default. E.g. :

However, whenever I am loading a pre-installed mesh (Create > Mesh > Sphere), I am getting a solid black object. E.g.:

So how do I change the view? My display options are set as follows:

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Create Multiple Views Of Same Part Separated From Other Base Views

Apr 3, 2013

I am trying to create a second base view (using Layout/Create View/Base from model space). The problem is, I need it to be rotated from the original base view. However, when I rotate the part in model space, ALL of my views change. 

So I guess my question is, how do I create multiple views of the same part that are seperate from the other base views?

Revit :: Make Transparency Of Glass-materials Visible In Views And Section-views

Jan 12, 2013

We would like to make the transparency of glass-materials visible in views and section-views by using the "realistic style". During a 3d-view our glass-material looks like transparent. Isn't it possible for REVIT to display the transparency of materials in views ?

The workaround to hide "glass" by using "overriding visibility" is not possible for us because some of our families and project families are using glass-materials inside (Showcases f.e.).

Software (German) :
RAC 2012+2013
Inventor Pro 2013
AcadM 2012
MaxDesign 2013

Revit :: Move Cursor Across Various Views Doubles Views

Nov 19, 2012

Since the end of Aug. 2012 I've been making families for a manufacturer. I left Friday evening with good families. This morning I am finding all the families I checked with a problem.
 
When I move the cursor across the various views it doubles the views. Rolling the mouse wheel one click either way to zoom in or out cleans the view but on the next time the cursor goes across the view it doubles it again. Now there are 4 views overlapping each other. The next time it is possibly 8, and so on. It is difficult to count them because they are overlapping but it looks like they are doubling each time.
 
The software is Revit Architecture 2011 and the computer is a Dell Precision T3500.Are the families corrupted or is it the computer?  Is there a toggle I hit that I shouldn't have?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Making The Switch To STB

Mar 1, 2013

We just upgraded to ACA 2013. I am trying to get a handle on our office standards. Part of doing that is to try and use as much out of the box as possible and keeping with the AIA layer standards.

I have always used CTB for plotting. I am just now trying to learn about STB for the first time.

In the past, I would change things like a wall styles layer key style and display properties to conform to my CTB in order for it to plot the correct line weights.

I want to be able to leave everything alone as much as possible and use STB. I want to use the AIA layers that ALL objects come in on as they are so that our office can use 100% of the out of the box objects and me not have to worry about changing each style to print properly. 

So I am going to make office standard wall, door, window, etc. styles which will mostly be out of the box styles. I also want people to be able to use the detail components.  Some editing will take place but only in design, not layer key styles or display. I guess basically what I'm asking is this, is it possible to get things to plot the way I want without having to change anything about them, using a STB plot style and leaving all objects alone to exist on there AIA layers?

AutoCad :: Switch X And Y Coordinates In LT 2010?

Aug 25, 2011

A while back, I sent some dxf files (all made in AC Lt 2010) to a company that uses a system called DP/Com. Apparently, this program reads coordinates (Y,X) instead of (X,Y), which means that they think all of my files are really wierd . Each and every number in the coordinates of my points are correct, so it's just the order I want to change.

Is there any way to "switch" the coordinates of several points at once in AC? (Without having to extract a coordinate list, switch columns in Excel and then importing them back...?)

AutoCAD 2010 :: Windows 7 Taskbar Switch

May 13, 2010

We are having the issue with all of our Windows 7 machines that you cant switch back to Autocad using the Windows 7 taskbar. When this happened with 2010 we chalked it up to 2010 not being compliant with the new taskbar in windows. But when it started happening with our Acad 2011 installs it gets frustrating. Alt Tab doesn't work. Hover and select a preview window doesn't work. The only thing that works is starting task manager and clicking 'Switch to'.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Using ILogic To Switch Versions

May 3, 2013

I would like to use iLogic to switch my design (rather complex assembly) between the 'full' version, a 'simple' version and a 'FEA' version. I'm learning Inventor step by step and did not studies the making of drawings yes.

I'm not sure if it is ok to use iLogic for this purpose because I'm afraid my drawings will update to the simple' or 'FEA' versions. This is not what I want. And when using the 'FEA' version, will the FEA information get lost when I switch back to the 'full' or 'simple' versions?

Or in other words: Is it wise to use iLogic for this purpose?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Switch Between Imperial And Metric

When in a drawing how do you switch between Imperial and Metric. It seems like it would be such a simple process? When I try to go to Options > User Preferences > Scale List Edit and change it, I then hit apply get back into options and it is switched back to Imperial ? I am basically trying to get this scale list format 1:10, 1:20, etc. instead of 1/4"=1'0", 1/2"=1'-0", etc.

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Switch Between Multiple Open Documents

Dec 5, 2012

I am a total  beginner at this vb.net thing.  I have a vba routine that I have used for years to execute a lisp routine on an open document, then switch to the next already open document, and continue until the routine has been performed on each already open documents.  For the life of me, I cannot figure out how in vb.net to get a document collection and make each document the active document so that I can execute the lisp routine.

VBA

=====================================================

Option Explicit
    Dim objAcadApp As AcadApplication       'Acad application object
    Dim objAcadDocs As AcadDocuments        'Acad documents collection
    Dim objAcadDoc As AcadDocument          'Acad document object
    Dim i As Integer

AutoCad 3D :: Cannot Switch Mass Elements To 3D Solids

Jun 29, 2012

Converting Mass Elements into 3d solids. I have an existing file with Mass Element entities which was created back in 2008/2009 with Autodesk Autocad 2008.I now use Autocad 2011.

MY PROBLEM is that I cannot switch the mass elements to 3d solids.

'CONVERTTOSOLIDS' option does not work and it is forcing me to.

explode > convert to surfaces > union > convert to solids

This process is ok on an individual solid but I have hundreds of them to do.

Is there anyway for me to streamline this process and find a faster way to do this?
