AutoCad :: Car Turning Circles / Paths
Aug 23, 2012A program that will show vehicle paths once start and end locations of vehicles are entered?
I have a restricted area and wish to know if a vehicle will be able to turn around in this area.

AutoCad :: Calculating And Drawing Vehicle Turning Circles?
Jan 24, 2013I am designing a piazza that most types of vehicles need to circumnavigate. On a scaled location plan, I would like to draw the scaled turning circles of cars and lorries - especially emergency vehicles.
I have the Metric Handbook beside me which has typical 90 degree turns drawn but it is not obvious how they were drawn in the first place.
I have all the vehicle dimensions that I need, I just need to know how to calculate and draw the geometry.
Illustrator :: Two Circles Snapping Paths On Tangent?
May 16, 2013I draw a circle and then want another smaller circle to snap to the path. This would produce 100% accurate smooth curve.
I added a line that snapped to an anchor point I added on the large circle. I was hoping to snap the smaller circle to the anchor point, but how can you do this without guessing where to add anchor points on the circle? What if I want to change them?
Right now I have snap to point on and snap to grid off. Align to pixel grid is also off.
method for drawing and conecting tangents?
Illustrator :: Turning Image Traced PNG To Paths?
Jan 21, 2013I am trying to make a crack wall texture effect on some text in illustrator cs6.
I have some crack texture photoshop brushes I really like, so I brushed on a blank psd canvas and saved it to PNG with transparent background.
I placed that in illustrator and image traced it so that it would create the paths for the cracked effect, but I can't seem to get it to make the paths for me.
I'm trying to do this so I can use the outlined brushes to erase the text layer with the traced crack png, removing the proper paths from the text layer so the text layer is now transparent where those cracks are.
Illustrator :: Why Are Gradients Turning Into Compound Paths
Mar 15, 2013I have applied simple gradients to shapes. When I try to select the object with the direct selection tool, it selects paths made from the gradient, not the object itself.

Feb 11, 2005I'm trying to make a logo. Circular logo with an inner ring maybe 4 px wide and 15 px inside the rim of the outer circle.
Basically I want a blue circle with a yellow inside ring. What's the best way of doing this? The only thing i can think of is: creating a blue circle marquee, and then another (trying to estimate a new circle size and change the color) that is yellow, and then making another smaller blue circle inside the new one. That's just ugly.
I tried the edit/stroke but that just gave me a stroke around the outer circle; it didn't put a ring inside the circle 15 px down.
Also I tried to contract the original circle by selecting it, then Modify/contract. That's got me a selected ring, inside the circle. Now how in the world do I make that little ring yellow? It just remains selected and I can't seem to find a way to color it.
Illustrator :: Joining Paths To Create Shape While Retaining Original Paths?
Feb 23, 2014I want to join two paths to create a shape that I can fill but at the same time retain one of the original paths (the red one in the image below). I can copy the path I want to retain but surely there is a more elegant solution. See below for for an illustration:

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Connecting Lines And Circles
Mar 21, 2011Im having a little issue with connecting lines and circles but not sure how to shorten the question to do a search on here. I have 2 concentric circles (the two circles form the walls of a round tower wall) which have 2 lines (representing a wall) passing through them. I want to join the circles from the circumference to the lines, but each time I try to do it the line seems to default to the center of the circles and to the endpoints of the lines which is not what I want. The eventual aim will be to remove a section of the circles and the lines where the new line connects to them to form an opening in the walls.
Ive tried <shift>right click and selecting tangent on the circles but I cant figure out what to do on the lines and it constantly defaults to the end of the line not to where I want to intersect the lines.
AutoCad 3D :: Loft A Profile Between 3 Circles
Mar 17, 2012I'm trying to loft a profile between 3 circles and i have created 2 2d spline guides to loft through (see picture).
I get an error when i select the two splines as guides which says
"Modeling Operation Error:
The guide is not G1 between first and last sections. The selected entities are not valid"
The guides are definitely touching the profile edges so I'm not sure what the problem is.

AutoCad :: Spline On Path Of Circles
Oct 24, 2011I am new here I am drawing a CAM that was designed, the CAM has a follower and after it it's attached to another turning piece, so you could say the whole thing is one big Bearing, you could call it a CAM Bearing. Anyway
I've drawn a set of circles along the path of the CAM (the circles are the follower), now I need to make a spline that fits that path. The problem is, that spline always intersects my circles. I need it to always stay tangent to the circles (ie. not intersect)
I have tried many ways and one way was to make the spline connect at the mid points of the circle but it still doesn't work.
I have attached some photos and also the DWG

Here's what I have:

My idea is to extrude the outline of the board for so many units, then take the side view item to slice through the side of the extruded board outline. After that I plan to delete the unnecessary 3D material.
Essentially I want to get to this and then delete the leftovers, but be left with a 3D shell of the board:
AutoCad 2D :: Turning Off Parametrics
Aug 2, 2012Acad Architecture 2013 30 day trial running as Options>Profiles>Autocad.
How to turn off parametrics? In Paperspace, things keep on acquiring parametric constraints and then can't be moved without affecting other things. All too advanced for me.
Parametric>Constraint Settings>AutoConstrain>Clear All is set (which produces warning that "Geometric constraints will not be applied" - hopefully) and >Geometric>Infer geometric constraints is unchecked.
Yet still new contraints keep coming. And even when all elements (whole drawing) is selected and Parametric>Delete Constraints is clicked, some constraints remain.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Mystery Circles On PDF / Printout
Feb 3, 2012I create an assembly, then a drawing from the assembly, i add a parts list and annotate everything, then include a title block. Everything looks fine. Then i print or PDF the drawing and odd circles appear which aren't present on the original drawing. They appear to be randomly positioned and don't line up with any other cylindrical feature, i cannot work out how to remove them.
I have told all non-essential layers not to print and in the PDF the circle is on the same layer as the drawing (Visible (ISO)).
