Jan 17, 2013I got a little issue about pasting by coordinates from one drawing to another. Drawing are absoloutely similiar, both ucs's checked (world) and units are same. why i cant paste ?

View 8 RepliesI am trying to use the command PASTEORIG and it does not work for me in AutoCAD 2013 or Civil 3D 2013. Is this a known issue with a fix or am I missing something here?
I know for the longest time to paste to original cooridinates you had to select an object and right click and paste by using the menu. I also used to create a keyboard shortcut that let me use Ctrl+Shift+V, but now these workarounds do not work either. It echos the command on the command line, but does nothing, not even a returned error.
This is a pretty significant issue when working in the Civil field.
Civil 3D 2013
Windows 7 64-bit
Xeon W3550 3.07 GHz
Nvidia Quadro 4000
12.0 GB RAM
This option is available some of the time but not always - I can't determine how or why. But, when I really want it it is not available.
Select an object in dwg 1
Right click, select Clipboard, then Copy
In dwg 2, right click, select Clipboard, Paste to Original Coordinates is greyed out. The Edit menu usually has the option available, but not always.
If I enter pasteorig at the command line, it works fine. I don't see anything wrong in CUI - the code in the Edit menu is the same as the code in the Shortcut.
This is a command I frequently use. However, upon installation of 2010 Architecture, this right click option is usually greyed out, and doesn't allow me to use that command. Nothing different than how I normally use it.

I am currently designing a kitchen with a complete floor plan. I had requested some accessories files from a company called Pearl works and they sent me each file that I requested. The problem is that when I copy and paste each image file into my existing floor plan, they all show up as the same image and not the seperate images that should appear. Am I doing something wrong with the clipboard process?
I have also tried deleting the drawing and re-inserting a different file and when I do every file thereafter is the same as the one that I just switched.
I'm using autocad2010. The command( Paste with original coordinates ) is not working.
The application(autocad-2010) uninstall and then reinstalled the error is continued.
I have two DWG files and I want to paste the content of the first into the second file with the original coordinates. It sounds very easy (and I am sure it is) but I am still failing. I open the first file, select all (crtl a), copy all (crtl a), open the other file and want to chose the function: right click > paste with original coordinates. But this open is not active (grey) and can not be clicked. Actually there is no paste function available to click on if I do a right click.
btw. I am working with AutoCAD 2012.
In Autocad 2013, when I highlight a drawing in model space and copy, then go to new drawing and paste to original coordinates, everything comes in fine except for blocks. the blocks get thrown far away from everything else.

I'm a GIS analyst trying to learn Cad. I'd like to place a single point in autocad model space at a specific Northing/Easting position. After reading several forum threads I don't think CAD allows me to change the coordinate system of model space from map coords to northing easting coords, as we can in GIS.

In the right Mouse click drop down window the Paste, Paste as Block and the Paste to Original Coordinates are grayed out.
The copy with Base Point works, as does the Ctrl+V and Ctrl+Shift+V and repeat Paste Block from the recent Input drop down selection. Why the paste commands are grayed out?
The coordinates that we can apply in Revit (project/shared) aren't exactly the same to have real world projection coordinates (WGS84)??

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have Autocad Map3D 2010. I have a set of points in a CSV file containing points, latitude and longitude, in columns, that I want to import to a map and place the points (houses) in the appropriate locations with the house number. I click IMPORT, MAP IMPORT, select my file as PNE and the data in the preview window appears correctly. I'm using OH83-SF coordinate code which the map is. When I click OK it appears to have completed the command but nothing appears on the map and I get no error notifications. As a test I put an incorrect value in one of the lists and it did flag the error. I've tried space delimiters, commas, txt and Excell tables and always the same - nothing. I've tried the command line MULTIPLE POINTS and entered the geo coordinates and again - nothing appears on the map.

I am extracting the data form my blocks in CSV file with the dataextraction function, but the problem is that my block is located at lets say X,Y(10,10) and in the CSV table shows X,Y(40000,40000).

So with Global Mapper I exported it to geo-referenced ECW.
I checked ECW in Global Mapper and ArcMap, everything just fine.
However when I did mapiinsert in Civil 3D, image appeared with shifted coordinates.
The original coordinate system of PDF and ECW is BC/Albers and coordinate grid is Lat/ Longs.

Work has finally given me a machine that can run AutoCAD properly and I now also have the office license of full AutoCAD 2011 (vanilla AutoCAD not architecture etc.)
I am about to start placing a lot of setting our coordinates onto some drawings and was wondering what the easiest/fastest way to produce setting out coordinates utilising all the fancy stuff AutoCAD has.
On LT I used to place points where I wanted the coordinates from, copy a peice of MText around say E:XXXXX N:XXXXXX with a leader from the point to the text. I would then go around listing each individual point and copy and paste from the AutoCAD text window to the MTEXT correcting the decimal point manually.
My director on this job hates tables of coordinates so I can't use them. Also the datum of the drawings is not world UCS, would this be a problem? I have looked at the LISP tutorial but have never used any LISP beyond this.
I was wondering if there was a way to set a point in autocad LT 08 using coordinates.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSometimes, I get drawings in which the Z co-ordinates of some objects are not zero. In such a case, fillets dont appear properly. I dont know why these objects get values for z co ordinate.

I am looking for a method to export all the GPS coordinates which have been assigned to each point along with the properties of that point to an excel csv.
In our drawings, there are multiple columns and each column has four points and each point has X,Y,Z coordinates. I want to export all this information to an excel sheet.
In autocad 8, how could I get the XYZ coordinates of a point, on the drawing. With ID or list command it is possible to get the coordinates of a point, but they would not appear on the drawing the way dimensions do.

I was swapping between these 2 co-ordinates systems. I have drawings that have been started in ISG, but now the designs from 12D etc are being output in MGA, going forward MGA is now the standard and will have to be adopted.
How to convert from ISG - MGA? i have use of Autocad 2010, and also Autocad map 2008 however i'm new to cad map!! i also have use of microstation which seems to have more co-ordinate system features but i'm not familiar with them!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm writing function for user to offset dimension. After enter command, he select dimension and select point near one of dimension's arrowheads. Then I'm calculating new XLinePoint1 or XLinePoint2 and replacing original.
I have everything done. I thought ... The problem is when user firstly create AlignedDimension and after that he create RotatedDimension by using continous function. After that XLinePoint1 and XLinePoint2 are not parallel to the DimLinePoint (look at image).
How can I get coordinates of points selected in red rectangles?

I need to get the dimensions of a lot of centers from parts in a drawing for inspection with a laser tracker.

We are a couple of students just starting at our finale thesis at the university. We got some problems that we can't find a resolution to.
We are going to use Ultramarine MOSES to simulate a ship. We got the drawings as 2d construction lines (.dwg) and 3d (.igs) of the ship, and need all the coordinates, x,y,z of all lines, to the coding in MOSES.
Our problem is to get these coordinates from autocad. We have tried to open the dwg in autocad and use dataextraction to get the coordinates without any sucess. We have also tried the igs without any sucess there as well.
