3ds Max :: Mouse Cursor Offset By About A Centimeter

Apr 17, 2013

When I'm trying to select/move/do anything anywhere on my workspace (not the UI, the actual window where you model), the cursor is offset by about a centimeter. I've tried running as administrator/doing all sorts of compatibility things and resetting the user interface in Max. I've also tried changing various settings on my video card (power saving off and whatnot).

I'm running windows 7 64 bit, all drivers are up to date.

Paint Shop Pro :: How To Set Vector / Raster To Centimeter Into Bigger Canvas

Jul 23, 2012

I created a canvas with 10 x 15 cm.

I am unable to create a vector rectangle or to set a raster image layer to fit 3 x 4 cm. I intend to fill the 10 x 15 cm canvas with a plenty of 3 x 4 cm photos.

a) Considering a rectangle vector, I set it to 300 x 400 (width x height), but the size don't match 3 x 4 cm, since the ruler (preferences/units/ruler) is set to cm an it is clear the 300 x 400 vector is smaller than 3 x 4 cm. Then, how could I set vector size to millimeters or centimeters?

b) I paste an image as new layer in the 10 x 15 cm canvas. The pick tool allows just scale the image, but I would like to obtain more control over raster image size. So, similarly to the vector issue, how could I set raster size (layer image into bigger 10 x 15 cm canvas) to fit 3 x 4 cm exactly?

Maya :: Difference In Grid Sizes Foot Vs Inch Vs Centimeter

Jan 20, 2014

does using a grid set to foot vs Centimeter cause the computer to use more processing power?
 
I would believe it to do so because when building something to scale on the centimeter grid it is much smaller then building it on the foot size grid.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Inserted Hole Dimensions Not Matching Feature Dimensions

Mar 16, 2012

I typically as much as possible like to insert my dimensions into my drawing from my model.

I created holes in the model as a 1/4" tapped hole

Yet when I show the dimensions in the drawing they show the minor dimension.

How do I get the 1/4" to show?  I have selected the feature and still get these results.

Also be sure to pick the 'aligned dimension' method and not the 'linear dimension'. I hope that works in Revit as it does in AutoCAD.

AutoCAD Inventor :: STL Does Not Have Same Dimensions At IPT

Feb 11, 2013

I have a cylinder with an 18mm diameter.

I export my ipt to an stl (and I make sure that I click on options before I convert and make sure the units are in mm) yet the units are still off. I am using Inventor 2013.

It seems like most people were able to solve their problem by clicking on options but even that seems like it is not working for me.

AutoCAD LT :: Dimensions Not Adding Up

Sep 18, 2013

Im making a window that is 300” I divide it up into 9 equal parts autocad lt 2012 divides it up @ 31 1/8” that is 280 1/8”.
The mullions are two inches wide and there is 10 of them that equals 20” the caulk joints are 3/8” there are two of them that equals 3/4".

So 280 1/8” + 20” = 300 1/8” + 3/4 “ = 300 7/8”

AutoCad 2D :: How To Round Down Dimensions

May 9, 2013

How to round down dimensions. I see some topics with writing LISP codes to do it but I have Autocad LT and those cant use LISP codes right? Ive also been looking into the Round off variable in the Primary units for the dimension style but its a little confusing. What I want to do is just round down my dimension at the given precision.

Lets say I have my precision set to .000 (even though I may have dimensions with .00) I want my dimension of 2.875500 to round down to 2.875 and not up to 2.876 then I also have a dimension of 2.90952929 and I want that to round down to 2.909 and I can not find a way of getting both of these to round down with the same setting on the same dimension style. Basically I just want to truncate my dimensions.

AutoCAD .NET :: Dimensions In Viewports With UCS

Jul 23, 2012

I have some aligned dimensions in model space - they look ok, text is oriented according to WCS. Also I have some viewports with UCS (I used commands UCS, PLAN) where dimensions look wrong, text is not oriented correctly. Is it possible to "update" dimension in viewport to orient text as in model space?

Programmatically created dims in viewports oriented as in model space, not considering current UCS.

AutoCad :: Dimensions Just Come Out As Three Lines?

Jul 20, 2011

I've just downloaded the latest AutoCAD for Mac and I'm trying to add a dimension to a 2d drawing. When I do so with the DIMLINEAR command by picking the start/end points then the distance away from the line, all I get is three lines, there are no arrow heads or text showing the distance. I looked at the properties inspector and arrow heads are enabled.

AutoCad 3D :: Bending Arc In 2 Dimensions

Aug 8, 2013

I'm working in 3D to create models but to get the dimensions right I'm creating the center lines and then sweeping the shape around it to form the solid.

I've created an arc in one plane, however I now want to 'bend' the arc around a cylinder. I've attached a drawing to make it all a bit clearer, I want to bend that arc around the green cylinder.

AutoCad :: Cannot Add Dimensions On Z-axis

Mar 21, 2013

I'm currently making some drawings of a piping system for an oil rigg process system I made in Inventor. I was now supposed to draw an Isometric drawing of some pipes, but i don't think i knew what isometric meant so i made it in 3D. So i made a full xyz 3d drawing instead of drawing 3d on an xy axis. Still, i don't think there will be problems because i'm only supposed to take pictures of this and add it to a repport.

The problem i have is adding dimensions to the lines on the z-axis, they keeb gluing to the xy-axis. It's probably a stupid question, but I just can't seem figure it out. I added a picture of it. Now if i made an ISOmetric drawing i would not have had this problem, hope i don't have to start again.

AutoCad :: Dimensions On 3D Objects

Dec 5, 2011

I have made a few cabinets (in 3d) on Autocad, but I was just wondering if there is a function that can tell you how large each of the pieces are in each direction (Have originally drawn in 2d and then extruded). Either each piece individually or a group summary.

Even if I go to the properties of each piece, it only gives me the extruded height (i.e. only a value in the Z-direction, gives 0 in the X and Y).

Is there any way to do this apart from the normal linear dimension function?

AutoCad 2D :: Dimensions Moving On Their Own?

Sep 3, 2013

I am currently dimensioning some floor plans and I have noticed that sometimes after a save or coming out of x-ref edit in place some dimensions will suddenly move sometimes just one node point sometimes both. I am talking about a 100m move not just slightly out of line!

The floor plan consists of an x-ref for the structure internal and external An X-ref for the stacks.

All partitions, electrics, doors, bathrooms furniture etc are directly drawn into this drawing so dimensions should be snapping to elements within the drawing occasionally it will be a junction between x-ref elements and non-xref (but still the end point of a line.) Dimassoc is set to 2 All dimensions are annotative and are in model space.

They are mostly drawn using the continue dimension command.It usually happens with 2 or 3 dims at a time but one time there were about 20 and I lost the will to live.
