AutoCAD .NET :: Creating Socketweld Connection In Plant3D?
May 28, 2013I'm trying to create a assembly with .NET to draw all objects from a chosen spec. I started from Plant3D SDK which have a sample project. Autodesk ADN support is too slow to answer some basic questions since they have changed support platform recently.
After hours searching and trying to reach the main goal, I understood how connections between objects are done. The connector is based on End Type of objects. I'm not a meterial guy, so everything is much more difficult to me At CreatePipeline (..Plant SDK 2013SamplesPipingCreatePipeline) sample we have a class PipelineConnector which create connector. The main problem is only Buttweld connector code is available at CreatePart method in this class. I'm needing a piece of code where creation for others connector types such as Socketweld are shown.
the CreatePart code below:
public override void CreatePart() { Database db = AcadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Database; ContentManager cm = ContentManager.GetContentManager(); part.Position = InsertPoint; part.SlopeTolerance = 0.1; part.OffsetTolerance = 0.0; if (ConnTypeName.Equals("Gasket")) { // Gasket // //PartName = "Gasket"; var spGPart = GetSpecPart("Gasket"); PSPColl.Add(spGPart); var blockSubPart = new BlockSubPart(); ObjectId Id = ObjectId.Null; try { if (spGPart.PropValue("ContentGeometryParamDefinition") != null) Id = cm.GetSymbol(spGPart, db); blockSubPart.SymbolId = Id; } catch { } part.AddSubPart(blockSubPart); // BoltSet // var spBPart = GetSpecPart("BoltSet"); BoltSetSubPart boltsetSubPart = new BoltSetSubPart(); boltsetSubPart.PartSizeProperties.NominalDiameter = NomDia;

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Access Sub Object In Plant3D From C Sharp
Nov 20, 2012I have a program in C# where i am trying to access a sub-object which is of type Connectors/fasteners.
In a drawing, I have an object with class (PnPClassname) P3dConnector, and when I click on it's red circle with <ctrl> pressed, I access an object with class (PnPClassname) BoltSet. I have added the event oDatabase.ObjectModified, but this only access the P3dConnector-object, not the BoltSet-object. See the image and attached file.
How can i access this sub-object? I have tried to loop through prompted result set using SelectAll. The P3dConnector-object is listed but not the BoltSet-object.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Opening A Form When New Drawing Created
May 15, 2013I have created a new drawing template using an iLogic Form and Prompted Entry. What I would like is a Rule that is generated when a user opens a new drawing template. The rule that is created would open up the new iLogic Form I created where various Title Block information is entered (Client Name, Client Address, Date, Drawn By, etc... I know you can manually open the iLogic Form that I created via the iLogic tab, but I would prefer the form open upon opening the new drawing. Once comlpeted, the user than imputs the Prompted Entry values (Drawing Name, Drawing Number, etc...).

Aug 13, 2012I work with a national company that creates criteria drawings for new projects. They recently changed to the 2012 version but they save it down to 2007. There has not been an issue with opening files with my 2009 version until recently. All of the computers in our office are unable to open these new files, although they claim nothing has changed. My CAD will pop up a fatal error and shut down whenever I attempt to open the new files. I downloaded the 2013 trial version and saved the file down to the older version, but that does not work either. Newer versions do not seem to be affected by the files, just my 2009 version. I tried creating a new file in 2013 and saved down to 2007 format. When I try to open it 2009 there is no issue. besides purchasing a new version of AutoCAD?

Oct 2, 2012I have an assembly that was created on 64 bit version of Inventor 2013, the total file size of everything is around 150MB. Even if I use 'Pack and Go' to move the file to another computer running the 32 bit version I get an error when I try to open it which says something like:
'unable to allocate 3GB memory for FBAttributeSegment'
The actually figure is over 3GB but of course on a 32 bit version of windows it is physically impossible to allocate that amount of memory (even with the /3GB in boot.ini hack)
I've performed various dynamic simulations as well as animations within the assembly so I'm thinking that perhaps its trying to allocate that huge amount of memory for a saved state of one of those.
What FBAtributeSegment might be and whether there is any special way to save an assembly to avoid this problem? The name FBAttributeSegment doesn't correspond to any part or assembly names.
I should also add that I have no problem opening it in a 32 bit version of Fusion which again suggests to me that it is something like simulation or animation that is causing this

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Add Two Holes To Ground Plate Only And Not Other
Sep 9, 2012I seem to have made what many might consider a rookie mistake. Built a fairly complex structure for an overhead crane system and get to the end to find that I missed two holes. The problem with these two holes is it is ONLY 1 plate (my grounded part), but I have used this same part in one other instance. So if I edit (even from within assembly) and add the two holes to the grounded plate it creates them in the other plate, which I dont want.
Since I have the second plate being used as a refence to locate MANY other parts on this unit, it would be quite difficult to replace it with a new part (same but different file name).
Any way to add said two holes to the grounded plate only and not the other?

AutoCad 3D :: Splitting And Lofting Of Metal Plate
Apr 23, 2013Basically we are trying to make a 3D plate (in this case a 2" thick piece of steel) and have a 3D hollow shape inside. Its split into Top and bottom, as shown as the below picture.
top View (plate 1).jpg
I have tried the loft command (which I just learned off within the past hour or so) and it indeed works. But I wish to use its as the opposite, where the middle is hollow and the rest is a solid object.
Side View (plate 1).jpg
I have tried the loft command (which I just learned off within the past hour or so) and it indeed works. But for the life of me does not know how to get it as one big object with the middle shape hollow. Am i missing a step or is it another command completely?
Also, once the object has been created, I want to split the object on its X axis mulitple times, almost like an exploded view. Each split will have its own set of top and bottom orifices which will represent multiple plates.
Is there a way to do that? Also is there a way to gain and separate the top and bottoms of these newly split plates?
Here is the drawing file as well to work on -> 3D-MK1.dwg
AutoCAD Inventor :: Holes / Screws On A Rolled Plate?
Jul 17, 2013I'm modeling a band that will be screwed onto the inside of a sheet metal cylinder. The band will be rolled to the ID of the cylinder. I'm trying to model the holes in the band, and place screws into the holes. I'm not sure yet how the holes will be machined out in the shop--whether they'll be drilled or punched, made before or after the band is rolled, placed based upon degree or arc length, etc.
1. Is there a better way to model the band and its holes?
2. How can I properly and easily insert the bolt into the holes since they're no longer "perfect holes" that can be used in an "Insert" constraint.
3. How can I then pattern the bolt so I don't have to insert one into each hole?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Place Pattern Feature Onto Plate?

Also from the picture there is a gasket.Would this be made as a separate part and placed on the Plate in a assembly file?Would the gasket be best made using sweep function?
I have created the plate as a solid model but would Sheet Metal also work or even be a better choice?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Constraining A Plate Via Sketch Lines
Mar 29, 2013I have an oddly shaped flat plate extruded from a sketch, the sketch of which has lots on constructions lines, none of which actually represent solid edges of the plate. However, I want to locate the plate to other components via the geometry defined in the sketch.
I find that when I am trying to constrain the plate to other parts none of the sketch geometry is available to me. Points, lines, construction lines, circles; I can select none of it when constraining. I am confused. How can I constrain such a part?
Just to clarify - the flat plate is the base of a structure. Its profile is decoratively shaped, so nothing about the cut edge of the plate is suitable for constraining to. I need to constrain off geometry defined in the sketch.
I have "Shared" the sketch.
