I'm having difficulty making a change to multiple texts. I received a drawing from another firm that uses different text styles than my firm. I can change all the text styles to mine, but they all hold onto their original fonts. How to change the fonts in multiple instances.
View 3 RepliesI'm doing subtitles for a documentary, and find myself wanting to change the font style in many clips at times. I know, I could start with a prefect template and copy that one over sequences, but in practice I find that you end up changing your mind mid-way about the specifics.
Coming from FCP, I remember there was a way to do this via an XML readout of the sequence (doing a "find and replace" query). Is there anything similar in PP? Or maybe even easier? An extension?
Anything that let me avoid clicking on hundreds of clips to change the style individually.
i've got a drawing from another company that has a bunch of points. i need to change all the styles to flatten them to a 0' elevation instead of the elevation they were shot at. i don't want to go through each point style to change that one setting. is there a way to do them all at one time?

How to make a macro that changes the font for a specific Text Style. The name of the Text Style is eg. "3mm", which I want to change from RomanS to Verdana.
I got a work that I have to change around 1200 drawings from Microsoft Visio to AutoCad 2009. One annoying thing is that the Visio drawings got Arial as text style and my company want everything in their own textstyle. So at the moment I single click all text bar and change the style, there must be a faster way to fix this.
View 9 Replies View Relatedim my current coding project im attempting to change the font stlye of 1 text item
i tried used the simple method of
[code]
(command "STYLE" "simplex" "ARIAL" "" "" "" "" "")
[/code]
however, using this changes the text's font in the whole drawing
i searched the forums here and everything i found either didnt work or changed all the text.
is there a more elegant way of doing this with just a selected text item and not the text in the whole drawing?
I discovered the TXT2MTXT command and how wonderful it is, but there is one thing missing. Is it possible to change multiple texts, but separately WITHOUT having to re-issue the command? I've experimented with some of the in command options, but unless I'm missing something, nothing seems to work.
Preferably, I would like it to work like the FILLET -> Multiple command, so I could select a group of texts, convert them then select another group etc, but the 'multiple' option in TXT2MTXT does not work in such a way.
I would like to know if it is possible to have a single attribute fill multiple strings of text. I have text that appears in more than one spot in a block of mine but when inserting the block i would like to be prompted once to fill the attribute.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need multiple (say two) instances of the same text values (in the same drawing) but in different formats.
Consider this: I have a drawing sheet with a title block that contains the drawing number and the author's name at the bottom with some other drawing details. Now I wish to have these "values" arranged in a matrix form at the top also, for indexing purpose.

One way is to manually enter each value, one by one, in the matrix box but that would be too time consuming. So, is there a way to automate this; where I can enter the values in the bottom title block, which would automatically update the above matrix?
I believe it can be done using a combination of Attributes and Fields but am just not getting it. To make the issue even worse, I need Numbers without hyphens (-) and only Initials of the author's name!
I am trying to select multiple instances of text (dtext) with different strings but want to change all of the fomats to the same settngs. I have searched high and low on the web to no avail. I am using AutoCAD 2012.
For example: I want the routine to find all instances of "AA", "AB", "AC", "AD", "BA", "BB", "BC", "BD", etc... all the way up to "ZD".
Next I want all of those text entities to change to the following text formats:
Text Style = STANDARD_96Layer = F-ANNO-CKTText Justification = MIDDLE CENTERText Width = .8
Getting this to work with just finding one string at a time with the ssget function seems simple enough, but it's getting it to work with multiple strings that I can't get past.
Up until now, I've been using Paint.NET as my main paint program. It worked well enough but had a few specific limitations that forced me to request the company I work for to purchase Photoshop CS2, which they did. In fact, the IT dept just finished installing it.
I'd like to have a single text layer with multiple instances of text, but everytime I go to add additional text, CS2 "conveniently" creates a new layer for me. Is there any way to tell CS2 to "Stop that!" and let me create as many individual instances of text on one layer as I want? I am labeling buildings/roadways on aerial photos and don't need to have 40-50 text layers per photo.
I'm using Photoshop CS5. How can I replace all instances of a missing font with a font of my choice?

I'm designing a part that in Autodesk Inventor 2013 that is constructed from several layers laminated together. I have 4 layers:
F (front)
M1 (middle, variation one)
M2 (middle, variation two)
B (back)
The final solid will lhave 17 layers laid out like this:
F | M1 | M2 | M1 | M2 | M1 | M2 ... | B
I currently have a part file containing
F | M1 | M2
What's the best way to create this solid if I want to a) keep all instances of M1 and M2 in sync, and b) make it easy to work on all 4 layers. Do I have to export F, M1, M2, and B as individual parts and import them into an assembly or can I keep them in one part file? I really like the ability to be able to work on all the solids at the same time because they're visually dependant on each other.
I have a text style called standard2 in a drawing, I put all text whether it be in blocks, dimensions, mtext, dtext everything into the style I want. Purge the drawing which gets rid of the style, save it, close it then reopen. I then get Standard style reset, existing objects moved to standard2 and now the standard2 style is back in the drawing. This problem is only affecting some drawings and not all drawings.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on a Global Company Civil 3D template. We had about 10 people initially working on creating it and now I am cleaning it up.
Unfortunately we have a Text Style being used somewhere within our template that we want to get rid of.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe're transitioning from ACA2012 to ACA2014. I'm also trying to get away from putting my blocks in DesignCenter and having our users insert Annotation (tags) from the Ribbon bar.
When I insert our door tag (or any schedule tag) from the ribbon bar, it is automatically changing the text style to the current text style. I'd rather it just use the style built into the tag. I know that can be controlled in the Designcenter content (right-click) - but how do I change that from the ribbon bar?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to produce a slideshow in LR3 of a series of travel shots. Problem is that I want to insert a nice caption to each individual shot showing the place, country etc etc.
It seems the only way to do this is to enter the caption initially in the Metadata in the Library module and then select " Captions " in the Custom text box in the Slideshow module.
My problem is that I hate the clunky big white text that shows on the slideshow. I cannot seem to find anywhere where I can change this to a nicer text font, style and colour. You can change the style text in the text overlay panel but that then applies to the whole slideshow. I need a nice individual caption for each shot.
I need to connect to specific instances of AutoCAD and Plant3D. The Running Object Table (ROT) only holds one instance so GetObject wont work.
I've tried getting the correct instance using the hwnd with the AccessibleObjectFromWindow function. I'am thinking the easiest way is to autoload a plugin to communicate with, maybe through a service.
There is a font and table style called "Legend" that is automatically generating and can not be purged.
I have looked through all the start up files, all the lisp files and can't find anything that would be creating them!
They appear in any file I open, new or old and even if I open a template file.
I have attached a file that should be empty but you will (or should) see both a font and table style called "Legend".

As the subject line says, when multiple instances of Inventor are open on the same machine, the addin will only show in the first one. I do not see any errors generated and tried many approaches. I tried to use the ribbon abpannelcontrol
created by the first instance. Or in every subsequent instance of Inventor to delete the existing ribbon abpannelcontrol, and recreate them from scratch. Both approaches did not work.
How do I prevent Inventor from opening files in new Inventor sessions?
If I try to open a file from Windows Explorer or from an email attachment, it opens it up in a brand new Inventor session, even if I already have Inventor open.
If I select two or three files in Windows Explorer or from an attachment to open, it opens them all in individual new Inventor sessions.
I would like to set Inventor (or Windows) so that these files open in the already existing session or at least the same session as each other. I didn't have this problem before upgrading to a new computer and reinstalling.
In the old versions of autoCAD I could select everything in the drawing and use the text style pull-down to select the text style I wanted all of the existing text to be and it would change it when the style was selected. Is there not a way to do this in AutoCAD 2011 without using the quick select feature in the properties dialog box?
I solved the same problem with dimensions by turning the dimension toolbar on but the text toolbar doesn't have the style as an option on it.
I use a "dump assembly" of assemblies to create cut lists. I throw in multiple copies of each assembly for the job. Sometimes it can be 100 or so of each.These are not placed in any way and could be all placed at the origin. This is only for the parts list and servers no other function.
Any way to place multiple instances of an assembly at once?
