AutoCad 2D :: Can't Change Object Color In Properties

May 30, 2009

I cannot change the color of any object in any drawing file from the properties manager or color command. I can change the color through the layer manager by assigning a new color to that layer, but cannot override the ByLayer and ByBlock settings with the object properties. The color drop down is simply grayed out. I am using Autocad lt 2006.

AutoCad :: How To Change Sequence In Properties Window

Mar 23, 2011

How I can change the sequence in my propertieswindow?

I give in my parameters and wich parameter I put in first comes on top of the properties list. If I delete the parameter that is first on the list and I put it in again it joins the list at the botom.

Now I want to control the sequence of the properties window so I can have it for al blocks the same. that makes it easier to use.

Like in the picture that you can find in the attachment. I want to put elements on top of the list so I can choose The elements (with visibility) first and then I want to put in the width and height.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Change Text Through Properties Window

May 23, 2012

I must have hit some combination of keys which altered my interface because Autocad 2013 is acting slighly differently. I can no longer pick Dtext and change its contents directly but must go into the properties tab and change the text through the properties window. When I pick an object my layers scroll windo no longer identifies the objects layer. And when I right click an object I no longer have access to the same set of command that I used to. For example I used to be able to right click an XREF and have the command xclip available but that and other specific commands are no longer available. I am on a deadline and am not able to figure out what is causing this sudden unexpected change in the interface.

AutoCad :: Block Properties Change With Array Command

Mar 7, 2013

Im a user of Autocad 2012 but in the new array command of autocad 2012 , when a block is arrayed the entire array acts as one unit and all the objects in it move together . This can be changed by exploding the arrayed objects and i can move the objects individually but when this is done my block properties are lost...Auto cad renames this block and no longer identifies as my old block.

How can i retain my block properties whilst using the array command in autocad 2012!

AutoCAD Architecture :: Where To Change Settings For Layer Properties For AEC Objects

Feb 15, 2011

Walls are being created on layer A-Wall, in color Cyan, Lineweight .020, etc.  I'd like to edit those layer properties.  There must be a matrix somewhere that shows a list of all of the Architectural Objects, the layer that each object will be created on, and the properties of those layers.  Where in ACA2008 have they hidden this top-secret matrix?  I've accessed Layer Key Styles via about 6 different routes, and nowhere do I find a list of Objects.  I see that I could define an override for every component of a Wall object in the Style Manager / Display Properties, but it sure would be easier to just change the layer color once, wherever that's defined.  There is only one Layer Key Style accessible through Style Manager, and layer A-Wall doesn't appear in that manager- layers A-Wall-Abov, A-Wall-Blow, etc appear, but not A-Wall.  Neither does layer A-Glaz, which is where Window objects are placed.

How does a Wall object know to place itself on layer A-Wall, and where are the properties of layer A-Wall defined?

AutoCAD Inventor :: ILogic To Change Properties On Top Level ASM Components Only

Oct 18, 2013

After changing colors at assembly level only ,below is a rule that changes all parts that have material "Plywood" to poplar works great.

However I want a rule that does the same kind of change but on only temporally at assembly level only then we can change back to default colors by removing color override.

It would be good if we can do the following

Search assembly for .ipt files that have material that contains PlywoodChange to color using temporary override of "Clear - Light" Possibility of searching more materials within same rule ie : "Timber" to be black in color"Pvcu"to be white in color

Dim oCurrentDoc As Inventor.Document
Dim oDoc As Inventor.Document Dim oPartDoc As PartDocument
Dim oRefDoc As DocumentsEnumeratorDim oTargetColor As RenderStyleDim oNewColor As RenderStyleoCurrentDoc =

[Code].....

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Change Number Of Lines In Quick Properties Box

May 2, 2012

My quick properties palette is only showing about 4 lines...(actually about 4.2 lines - explained below)

I've already changed the minimum number of rows to 20, under 'Palette Behavior', under 'Quick Properties', 'Drafting Settings', and' Tools'.

I've closed and reopened Autocad several times since i've set this, but QP box will still not show more than 4 complete lines.

I've also gone to the CUI and changed the number of attributes i want to show for each different kind of entity, so i know it's not because i dont have enough lines to show....in fact, i can see a bit of the next line....i just can't drag the window any bigger!

AutoCad :: Change Overall Linetype Scale Using Modify Properties Dialogue Box

Apr 19, 2013

Quicker way to change the overall linetype scale than using the 'modify properties' dialogue box that comes with Autocad 2008? I've attached an image that specifically shows what I am trying to change, but I get tired of always having to scroll down in the box to find this variable. I would love to have something simple like the old DDCHPROP dialogue box (see smaller image). LISP routine or something where I click on the toolbar button, and simply change the overall scale without having to navigate through the native one?
