AutoCad 3D :: Creating Objects Above X Y Plane?

Mar 17, 2013

I found much info on creating 3D objects above X Y plane (which is Z), but I haven't been able to find info on creating objects on the underside of X Y plane (sub Z).

I need to create objects above and below X Y.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Multiple Plane Ifeature

Nov 17, 2011

I'm new to Inventor, less than a month of experience learning by myself. I want to create an ifeature that uses sketches from 2 different planes. I found out how to place a simple ifeature but i'm having difficulty with the multiple plane references. I can select the 2 planes when inserting and tried using the "activate sketch for placement", but I can only reference the first feature, the second one isn't available at that point, therefore does not appear after completion.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Moving Objects In The X / Y Plane Only

Jul 29, 2013

I want to move a large 3D steel file on top of a 2D architectural background. The ISSUE is that when i move it (in plan view "aka top view") the X,Y coordinates change AND the Z coordinate changes... But, I want the Z coordinate to stay the same . I wrote a LISP file that doesnt seem to work (SEE BELOW):
 
(defun C:MoveXY (/ PT1 PTB PT2)(setvar "CMDECHO" 0)(setq PT1 (getpoint "
Specify Base Point or [Displacement] Displacement: ")PTB (getpoint "
Specify second point or <use first point as displacement>: ")PT2 (list (car PTB)(cadr PTB)(cddr PT1)))(command "_.MOVE" (SSGET) "" PT1 PT2))

It seems my issue comes when i get to the command line (ssget) seems to mess it all up . How to use the ".Move" command with the (ssget) function?

3ds Max :: Creating Bitmap Image Onto A Plane

Aug 2, 2012

I just downloaded 2013, and I am trying to learn how to use it through a book to work with my future school designs. I, of course, have little assignments to do to learn how to work the basics of this program. I am at the point where I am creating a bitmap image onto a plane. I worked it the book's way, and the selected plane did not change to the image I chose; it remained a gray color. I then looked up tutorials online and have the same results. The material editor is changing, but not in the viewport.

3ds Max Modeling :: Turning Plane Into 3D Objects (like Box / Sphere)

Dec 22, 2012

I'm working on a complex closed object shape originally made from a plane and want to do Boolean to it.

So when a plane get Boolean-ed with a sphere, it just turns to plane with a hole. Different when a standard box get Boolean-ed with a sphere, it turns into a box with a 1/2 sphere hole.

My question is, is it possible to turns a plane into solid 3D objects like box, sphere,etc..? So it's able to get Boolean-ed correctly?

I add a picture of simpler analogy
p.s. the box and the box-ed plane is an editable poly

I created a square and make it as a region. I just realize that they are consist of two kind of overlapping objects.

One is four lines that formed a square and another is the formed square region.

How do I switch the mode back to the AutoCAD classis, which when I create a region, then there only available one object, that is, the formed region.

I am working on creating an existing pipe network (stormwater) from objects, invert data, size, type and length given.  M

My question is how do I know where the start and end is and if I need to create more than one network for my project.  I have a current project location and I am assuming I am to create a network for the entire location?

I have attached a couple pics for you to see what I am working with at a couple different scales so you can get a good idae of my project.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Creating New Layout And Zooming To Correct Region In View Port - Objects Vanish

Aug 28, 2012

We have a map of our primary lines in an ESRI .shp file, that superimposes nicely on our other shape files, for shoreline and rivers and everything else, that works fine. As part of some project planning I'm doing, I'm making a series of layouts, each taking a snapshot of an area, with a revision cloud around the lines we're planning to replace. 

I loaded the map up this morning and everything was as I saved it, but as I was creating a new layout and zooming to the correct region in my view port, every single revision cloud I drew disappeared. As did all the annotations and other labels I'd made - absolutely everything that isn't from a database just up and vanished. 

I've turned off all the database links, there's nothing covering them up, I had none of them selected and used no delete commands, all I did was create a new layout via copy and adjust the viewport on it, they're just gone.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Objects (Feature Lines / Grading) With Naming Template Query

Jun 26, 2012

When creating Feature Lines, I wanted them to be e.g. Step Line 1, Step Line 2, Step Line 3 etc so I amended the name template to suit. I created multiple from objects and the naming convention worked. If I did features individually (as I wanted certain ones in certain sites) it worked for the first feature but reverted back to the default Feature line name on subsequent entry to the dialog i.e. it had "forgotten" the template name just set.

Am I missing something to get this to work correctly or is this how it's supposed to work i.e. useless for individual feature line creation?? This also happens for gradings.

CorelDRAW X5 :: Creating Objects From Adjacent Outlines

Jul 28, 2012

CorelDraw X5

I have drawn a shape as you will see in the attached. The white 'arches' are not there as objects in their own right, they are as a result of the orange objects and the yellow ring.

I will be passing this to a laser engraving machine and need to cut-out each object seen in its own right, including the 'arches'. Clearly in a normal printer I could just put a coloured circle behind the other objects but on a laser I need the actual shape.

I don't want to manually try to fit a bezier as the cut-out parts need to be a perfect fit as it is going to be an inlay. Each colour will be a different type of wood. Is there a macro tool that would do it?

Photoshop :: Creating Independent Smart Objects In Same Document?

Sep 4, 2013

I downloaded a .psd file that is a catalog mockup. The document contains a smart object that looks like a catalog lying on a table top and I want to take my catalog art and place it in this smart object so that it looks like I've taken a nice photograph of my design work. That is the easy part!
 
What I want to do now is duplicate that smart object, put it underneath the original so it is peeking out and tilt it a bit. Then I want to put the back side of the catalog art on it so that it now looks like I've got both the front and back showing. Only problem I keep running into is that now when I click on the 2nd, duplicated smart object and put the different art (back of catalog) on it, it updates the original, first smart object that I want to show the front of the catalog.

Basically I want the two smart objects to not link and update each other when they are in the same document. I can't find anything online so far and am running out of time. I even tried calling Adobe and that WAS A MESS.

Illustrator :: Creating Bleeds For Multiple Objects On Same Page?

Nov 2, 2013

Is there an easy way to create bleeds and trim marks for multiple objects on the same page?
 
For instance, I have a playing card that I've tiled across the page 6 times ( so that I can create 6 cards out of 1 page ).  Each card needs it's own bleed/trim marks.
 
I'd also like to have printer registration marks for the page, as I have to print the card backings on another page and then glue the two pages together.
 
The only way I've found that I can do this is to manually create the trim marks for each object's bleed and just have them all within 1 artboard.
 
I tried doing it with multiple artboards within one larger artboard, but couldn't get that to work.
 
Is this something that just needs to be manually done?

Illustrator :: Creating Rectangular Marquee To Select Objects

Apr 24, 2013

I am trying to use the selection tool or the direct selection tool to create a rectangular marquee somewhere within the boundaries of an illustration.
 
I want to select only those objects that are fully or partially within that marquee. 
 
I can use the lasso to select objects in this way. But if I try to use the selection or direct selection tool, it selects and moves the first object I touch.
 
I can use the selection tools and begin from outside the image area and create a rectangular marquee of selected objects. But I can't do this if I begin within the image.

Illustrator Scripting :: Creating Bounding Rectangle And Selecting Particular Objects?

Aug 23, 2012

I'm extremely new to scripting; I managed to create a script to extend the artboard of my documents (which I was extremely proud of given my inexperience!) and another to align a couple of objects alongside each other, but my attempts to script some new code has met with failure.
 
Firstly, I need some Illustrator CS4 Javascript code that will create a bounding rectangle for the selected object(s). The selected object(s) will always be rectangular; no irregularly-shaped objects. I know this should be simple, but I can't work out the variables/attributes involved.
 
Secondly, some code to select the leftmost object in a document. And the equivalent for the rightmost object.
 
If it makes any difference, I'll be stitching these scripts together with an action to achieve the following workflow.

Two EPS files are dragged into an empty document as 'Linked Files'.The two Linked Files are aligned alongside each other. (Using a script I've already written.)The leftmost Linked File is selected and has a bounding rectangle created, which is then used to mask the Linked Object.The rightmost Linked File is then selected and has a bounding rectangle created, which is then used to mask the Linked Object.Both masked Linked Files are selected, and a bounding rectangle is created to mask them into the same Clipping Mask group.The artboard is set to the dimensions of this combined masked pair (I've managed to write that script already).The Linked Files are embedded into the document. 

The reason for this is because we have EPS map files exported from AutoCAD that are left- and right-hand pages. These need to be combined into one file, but when they are brought in they lose their masks as the BBOX element is not recognised by Illustrator. The double-masking in my process above is needed to ensure that content from either map doesn't overlap the other half of the map.

AutoCad :: Size And Shape Of All Objects Connecting The Objects To The Main Structure

Nov 22, 2012

I am very much new to AutoCad, but have learned quite a bit about it in the last few days. As a part of the learning I have been building a 3D model of the shed my dad is building. But I ran into a problem on the roof and cant seem to figure out how to click everything into place.

My problem: I need to keep the size and shape of all objects while also connecting the objects to the main structure. I need to keep A and B connected to the main structure and adjust the angles so that both meet at C. But if I move one then another moves out of place. (In the pic B is out of place) All I want to do is hold the beams at A and B in their spot while adjusting the rotation on both beams to meet at C all at the same time. I have tried to fine adjust the rotation on the beams individually but still cant get them together. I cant seem to get the constraints feature to work, because I guess it only works in 2D. I have tried to use the align tool but it just throws everything haywire.
