AutoCad :: Nest Annotative / Dynamic Block Inside Non-annotative Block?

Sep 23, 2011

I have attached the block for reference. Now that I have found the error of my way with the annotative cutline. I have a slab-on-grade block that needs to have annotative hatches; I also need the cutline to be annotative and dynamic so that as the drawing scale changes the scale of the cutline will be match and I can adjust the length of the extension lines. I have made the cutline a nested annotative and dynamic block within the slab-on-grade block. When I insert the block into my drawing the cutline is annotative and the dynamic grips show up but they do not work.

AutoCAD .NET :: Exporting Dynamic Annotative Block To Dwg?

Oct 3, 2011

I have a drawing with a dynamic annotative block. I want to export that block to another (new) drawing (similar as AutoCAD's wblock command). But whatever I try, I never get the block as a drawing, but always end up with a drawing containing the block.

Some of the things I tried:

i.e. 1:

structObjectId = objBlockTable[strBlockName];
objBlockTableRecord = (BlockTableRecord)objTransaction.GetObject(structObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead);

[Code].....

AutoCad 2D :: How To Make Dynamic Block Annotative

Sep 18, 2013

I have a dynamic block that I created with a bunch of visibility, rotate and stretch parameters and actions. When I created said block, I meant to make it annotative but forgot about it during the initial block definition. Is there a way that I can make the block annotative now, or do I have to go back and re make the block all over again?

AutoCad :: Annotative Scaling With Dynamic Block

May 14, 2012

I'm setting up CAD standards for my office (title blocks, tool palletes, dynamic blocks, you know the drill). This should have been done long ago by another employee who makes more money than me, but that is beside the point. (Maybe you know the drill on that front too...)

This is a granite counter top fabrication shop, and I've created a dynamic block containing all the edging profiles we are producing at the moment. Contained in the block are "3D" versions of each profile, both with and without dimensions (for annotation purposes), and a 2D closed polyline showing only the "section" of the profile, to be exploded from the block and used as an extrusion shape when 3D drawings of the finished look of a countertop are necessary.

The issue I'm having is with scaling/annotative scaling. I have created a custom tool pallete with this edge profile block and a couple other dynamic "mark-up" blocks. (See Layout1 in the attached drawing.) What I need is for this edge profile block to insert into model space at "actual size" (3/4" thick), so when it is exploded and extruded, I'm creating that 3D edge at the proper proportion in my drawing. But for annotative purposes, I want to be able to insert the block at a different scale in paperspace (roughly at the size it is shown in the attached drawing).

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Annotative Block Multileader

Jul 2, 2013

I'm fairly new to using annotative objects, and I am having a lot of trouble with blocks and annotative multileaders.

I made a custom block (_ValveCallout) to be used in an annotative multileader, which was working perfectly, until I needed to edit the block I was using in the multileader.  After I redefined the block, the attributes in the block seem to be displayed at the wrong scale, and the border around them isn't even showing at all. I have to redraw every multileader if I have to make a change to the block.

AutoCad :: Make Dynamic Block Using Annotative Objects

Aug 14, 2008

I have tried to make a dynamic block using annotative objects, text leaders, etc. The block was created initially as annotative but later somehow after going over it in the block editor. It has lost it's annotative properties. Is there a way to make a dynamic block that is not annotative, make it annotative. this block has only visibility features.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Annotative Associative Block With Attributes

Oct 1, 2011

I "work in both worlds" It's somewhat important.  (Windows at my "day job", Mac Student Ed for my University teaching.

I have an Annotative Associative block with attributes (TTFs).  The Title attribute is multi-line.  When the block used in a file that is opened in Windows, obvkously everything is fine.  If that same drawing is opened in ACAD Mac, the position of the top attribute shifts and can't be corrected until the block is edited in Windows.  (It has to be Windows because ACADmac can't edit associative blocks in this release.)

Process I used (MacBookPro 7,1):
Start ACAD12win (Parallels 7 w/WinXP), used default ACAD.DWT.inserted block "Tag Drawing Title", accepted all attribute value defaults, accepted default annotation scale of 1:1save fileopened file in ACAD12mac (multi-line attribute in wrong position)save fileOpened again in ACAD12win, and multi-line attribute is still in wrong position.  Save fileOpened again in ACAD12mac, and multi-line attribute is in a greater incorrect position.

AutoCAD .NET :: Determine Size Of (non-dynamic Non-annotative) Block Definition?

Mar 24, 2013

I want to determine the size of a (non-dynamic non-annotative) block definition (BlockTableRecord). Does a block have a boundry or limits? For example, if the block would contain a simple square, the size of the block would be equal to the size of the square.

AutoCad :: Annotative Block With Dynamic Properties - Add Spot Elevations To Drawing

Jan 8, 2014

I created the attached block to add spot elevations to a drawing. The block has attributes allowing elevations to be manually typed in, but also includes many dynamic features for rotation, lengthening, mirroring, etc. The block was created as an annotative block.

The block and all of its features work perfect as long as the dynamic features (rotation, etc) are not used after additional annotative scales are added. I often times have a drawing set at 1:10 or 1:20 scale and need to do an enlarged detail at 1:5.

What I would like to do is have this block set at 1:10 scale and 1:5 scale and manually rotate it (ideally using the dynamic features) at different angles for each scale. Is this possible and if so, why is it not working with this block? This works flawlessly when using annotative multileaders, so why shouldn't it work with blocks or is this just too labor intensive for the software?

I have also tried attsync, etc. and often times when rotating at different annotative scales, the text attributes go "bonkers" for the opposing scale when applying attsync.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Create A Dynamic Block For Glass Panel In Balustrade

Feb 28, 2012

I need to create a dynamic block for a "Glass Panel" in a balustrade. I need to be able to insert it, in one corner and stretch it in another corner, to suit the staircase angle.

I've created the block, but it isn't working correctly. I've attached a drawing, with the left hand drawing a sketch of how it needs to be. The right  hand drawing is my dynamic block attempt. As can be seen, when the block is stretched between the 2 points, it doesn't follow the angle of the staircase correctly (Very slight run off)

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: How To Create A Dynamic Block That Changes In Scale

Jul 27, 2011

I am looking to create a dynamic block that changes in scale, ex. If I have two (2) viewports in paper space, one 1/4"=1'-0" the other 1/8"=1'-0" I want my blocks to appear to be the same size in paper space.

Also, I would like my blocks to change attributes/features ex. If I have a "light switch block" I would like to have the option of switching the block from a 3-way switch, 4-way switch etc.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: How To Create Y Dynamic Block

Feb 28, 2013

I would like to create an "Y" dynamic block, see bellow.

The hole length and the "cross" point will be variable, between the two sticks will be 90 deg, and it will be FIX.

I would like if I change the "variable 2" distance the two sticks follow the cross point, and the top of the sticks stay in the same level, but between the sticks the 90 deg stay!

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Attributes In NON-Annotative Block

Feb 7, 2013

I have a co-worker who needs to create a block where the attributes scale with the anno scale, but the block container does not. He's creating a tree block and wants the canopy and trunk attributes to scale without scaling the tree symbol.

Making an attribute annotative and applying the scales to the attributes doesn't seem to work if the block itself isn't annotative.

Are we missing something, or is this just not possible?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Create A Dynamic Block?

Feb 12, 2013

I want to create a dynamic block that as I select my pick point to move it over it stretches the box, however at the same time it arays 2 other lines at the same time. The trick is I need the 2 lines that array to renceter them self within the overall box thats being strtched. To put this in exact teerms I'm looking to create a dynamic block of a reinforced concrete slab that you can stretch to the length you want and at teh same time the reinforcing sysmbeol (----- X-----) will array itself and recenter. Is this possible to do?

AutoCad :: Create A Dynamic Block Library?

Sep 2, 2011

I am trying to create a dynamic block library but can't quite seem to get it right.

The only dynamic feature I need to use right now is visibility states so i'm sure it's something simple that i'm just not seeing, but I thought I would ask everyone's opinion on the best way to do it.

What I am trying to do is set up a full common library on our network that our whole team uses. At the moment we all have our own block library which can sometimes cause problems. The file location / folder set up etc is sorted out but it's the actual blocks which are making life hard for me as until now we haven't really used dynamic blocks.

The only way i've been able to get the blocks where I want them so far ends up in a 'double block' meaning the block itself becomes a block again once I write it to the desired folder. This works but is not ideal as I can't get the vis state drop down menu by clicking on the block and have to edit the parent block to change the vis state.

Basically I have no problem creating the exact dynamic block I need, and no problem with a location to store them, it's more storing them that's giving me a headache.

AutoCad :: Create Dynamic Block For Overhead Cupboards

Nov 7, 2013

I have to create a dynamic block for our overhead cupboards. I've tried to do it myself but the solution is not forth coming and the brain is starting to hurt. I've attached a drawing to better illustrate what i want to do. It has the old style doors but i will create a new DB for the new style.

The OHC will be inserted with the top left point. I then want to stretch the top right point to the appropriate length and have the 3 doors stretch equally. The gap between the doors will be 22mm and must not change. The end gaps will vary because of door size but will stay within 31.2 mm to 32.7 mm (As close to 32mm as possible). Also the rh edge of the water level gauges need to be 58mm from the rh door edge.

AutoCAD .NET :: Create New (user) Parameter For Dynamic Block?

Sep 25, 2012

I would like to add a new (user) parameter to a dynamic block within my code. I have noticed that this is possible manually. But couldn't find how to do this in .Net. When this parameter has been created it would be necessary to fill in a value. So the parameter can either be a general parameter, that can be adjusted later or a (user/dynamic) parameter specific for the block.

AutoCad :: Create Dynamic Block With Several Different Visibility States

Jul 22, 2012

I'm trying to create a dynamic block with several different visibility states and for each visibility state I have created an attribute. Each attribute has a different text style because I need the size of the text to change when I change the visibility state. But on the model space I can only see and edit te attribute in one of the visibility states. How to create a block that allows me to see different attributes in different visibility states or that alows me to change the text stryle of the attribute acording to the visibility state?
