AutoCAD 2013 :: Extrude Polygon Creates Solid But Original Polygon Still There?
Aug 15, 2013Is there a setting for extruding polygons so it doesnt leave the original polygon.
When i extrude a polygon into a 3D solid, it extrudes fine but it also keeps the original polygon which means i have to delete it?

Dec 17, 2012I drew a solid model of a structure in Autocad 2010. By using that model, I want to make a FEM analysis in Sap2000. The problem is that Sap2000 takes only polygon meshes (not solids) in 3d. The question is that how can i make a group of polygon meshes of the solid model that represents the structure.
(Since i am not an expert of Autocad, i will be glad if the solution is explained in a simple language.)
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Select Non-solid Entities On Solid Layer
Mar 19, 2012We 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, 2012I'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, 2013I 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, 2012i 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?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Export Polygon To A Shapefile
Jul 22, 2013I have a series of polylines with a global width of 5m which I want to export to a polygon shapefile to represent in GIS. I realised if I create a shapefile of the polylines and then create a buffer of 2.5m on either side I can create my desired polygon. My question is how do I export this polygon to a shapefile. I have tried bulk copy but this just seems to revert the buffer back to a polyline shapefile .

View 8 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Merging Polylines Into A Polygon?
Oct 22, 2012What I want to do basically is merge a couple of polylines (which have different widths and may overlap each other) together into a single 'shape'. I am calling it shape, but I think the correct term would be polygon.
The end result should ("from the outside") look the same as before merging, the only difference being that the polylines are now merged into one shape. Important note: it cannot be a polyline with segments of different width, I know AutoCAD supports this, but the drawing will be exported to a format which does not seem to support this (and the result then is a line with a single width - wrong).
Here's a mockup of what I want to achieve:
On the left are three polylines (PL1, 2, 3), where PL2 has a different width and overlaps the other two polylines. On the right is the desired result: a single polygon (NOT a polyline with variable width) in the same shape as the polylines.
AutoCad :: Importing Polygon From CSV File
Jun 20, 2012Is there a simple way to import a polygon from a csv file? I have read about ascpoint.lsp, but as far as I could work out, this makes a polyline, not a polygon. A simplified example is that I want to draw a rectangle with points 0,0 and 10,5 (note there is no z-axis, i.e. it's all just 2D). How can I create this from a csv file? I am flexible as to the format of the csv, but for example it could be 0 0 10 5.
Without trying to overcomplicate things, it would also be useful if the colour could be defined in the same csv file (e.g. using a 5th column, or a second row) and that the polygons were automatically filled solid (as you could do by using the BHATCH command).
The main reason I ask is that I have some cel files containing polygons and lines, but I cannot import them into autoCAD directly (changing the extension to DGN and inserting it fails) possibly due to a weird/obsolete format, however, I can convert the cel file to a csv file and strip out the nonsense.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Spatial Join Between Point And Polygon
Jan 30, 2013Is it possible to create jon between point feature and polygon feature which is not attribute based, but only geometry based.When point is inside polygon can I create automatic join between point and polygon so I can use joined attribute data table.
I know i can create "object data records" links between enclosed text and polyline but i want to do same thing using SDF format points and polygons. Can it be done without converting point feature label to text and polygon to polyline and then creating automatic links and then again converting polylines with object data to SDF format.
