AutoCad :: Displaying Selected Attributes?
Dec 20, 2011I have a drawing that has attributes already defined in it.
I would like to be able to make some of these attributes visable and turn some of them off, is this possible in Autocad 2009?

AutoCad :: Block Attributes Are Not Displaying?
Aug 16, 2013I created a block in the way I always do.
-draw a symbol
-define an attribute & place it
-go to draw>block>make and select the object i want to be in my block and name it.
as normal once i completed this my block appeared with the attribute window popping up as expecting looking for me enter a value for my attribute.
I intended to use this block along with the measure command to reference a number of points along a poly line as equal distanced (I've done this many items before).
when using the measure command and typing in my block name, it appears at the selected distance along the polyline, but the attribute text is not visible. when you select the block, there is no attribute within it (i.e. no attribute dialogue box appears, nor is there a field in the block properties window for the attribute to be amended).
when i insert the block into the drawing using insert>block, it appears as expected with its attribute?
I have found a work around for this, but it's not ideal. I've created a temp block from my original block, using the measure command it displays correctly. i have to then explode the temp block which leaves the original block and its attribute in place.

AutoCAD .NET :: Cannot Write Selected Block Attributes
Jan 15, 2012I have a prblem with the code. I posted the code below. I have two questions about the code.
The First in vba there is a function refers to blocks effective name is there ant similar function vb.net has?
Because when I filtered Blocks that I want particularly DYNBlocks I get all of them in vba I inserted
İf blockobject.effectivename=" ..." then
it can solved. but invb.net I did not find a way to get rid of this...
The second question is the code can not able to write attribute when selecting fence mode. In normal selection it did not happen.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Automatically Export Attributes From Selected Blocks To Defined Txt File
Oct 3, 2012How to create a lisp to automatically export attributes from selected blocks to defined txt file without having to everytime confirm the file name, location and if the file shall be replaced?
Meaning is that I often export attributes to txt file for further use. It is always the same file (I just overwrite it always).
The way I do it now is selecting blocks, using ATTOUT command, then going to the desktop, selecting ATT.txt file and confirming that it is to be replaced.
Is there a way to make lisp or script that will just do all it in at once?
I found on forum such a lisp as below, but it exports all ablocks on drawing and it exports to txt file which is located in same place as drawing and with same name as drawing. Tried to modify it but without success:
(defun cut-att ()
(load "attout")
(setq fna (strcat (getvar "dwgprefix")
(acet-filename-path-remove (acet-filename-ext-remove (getvar "dwgname")))
".txt"
))
(setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (66 . 1))))
(bns_attout fna ss)
)
Same question for ATTIN - I use attin and always same file name from same location - how to automate it with one command?
AutoCad :: Attributes Not Displaying In Properties Tab Or Quick Properties
Jun 11, 2013I finally got some Lisp scripts working. They generate a block library from a CSV file. The script reads the file, and generates a simple rectangular block based on dimensions on the line. I have another script that can read a csv of block names and values, and add these as attributes to the block.
The attributes added are simple, like "weight" and "max stack qty". I would like to be able to see these values in the properties tab or in quick properties. In my CUI I have "Display Custom Attributes" checked under "block reference".
However, when I select a block, no attributes show up. I can get it to show me things like "name" and all of the scaling values, just no attributes.
AutoCAD Map 3D :: Adding Attributes To Line - So Attributes Can Be Viewed In GIS (ArcMap)
Nov 17, 2011I'm working on setting up a process where I can bring AutoCAD drawings into GIS. I need to assign an attribute to a Polyline or Line so that the attributes can be viewed in GIS. I've noticed there is a way to convert AutoCAD to a SHP or SDP however I'm not familiar with this process.

Jan 23, 2012From the attached image you can see what I'm talking about.
(left=original, middle=ROTATE, right=PROPERTIES)
When I rotate blocks using ROTATE command everything is fine, but when I rotate blocks using PROPERTIES my attributes get messed.
I need to rotate several blocks at once with PROPERTIES, because I don't have time to rotate each one separately.
The same thing happens when scaling blocks, but this was resolved using the command BSCALE in the command line.
Photoshop :: Why Would Font Size Differ Between Selected And Non-selected Text
Mar 29, 2013I've encountered a strange issue in PSDs I've inherited from another designer.
When I have a text layer selected with the type tool active, the font size reads correctly (say, 40px). When I actually select the text with the type tool, the font size gives a strange number (say, 38.74px).
See the screenshots below:
This is on OSX 10.8.3, Photoshop CS6.

Jun 12, 2013On LR 4 and now 5, the shades of grey used to distinguish the selected vs, not selected images in the filmstrip at the bottom of the workspace are too close together making it difficult to see what has been selected.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Hatch Displaying As Solid?
Jan 22, 2012I have a hatch (that is not solid). Sometimes it displays as a solid hatch though, although if I move the hatch (even slightly) the display issue is resolved and the hatch displays properly (i.e. not solid anymore). Regen doesn't fix the display issue, only moving the hatch slightly (temporarily).
I'm not sure how far away from the origin the hatch is although it is no further than what it would normally be when it works fine (and it can't be moved closer to the origin anyway as that would screw up my models real world coordinates).

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: XREF Objects Not Displaying
Sep 26, 2012I am getting a lot of grief xrefing a C3D file into an AutoCAD drawing. A bit of background...
Fairly large development project with 270 new familiy houses. The sanitary sewer (SS) network was created using AutoCAD only. All layout drawings and xrefs were created using AutoCAD using AutoCAD templates. Then, here I am, putting the entire SS network in C3D, with its fancy labels and relevant long sections. Now I am supposed to display this C3D network in all the layout plans and get rid of the old 2D SS xref. Well, the blody thing doesn't work! If I try to xref the original C3D file, it will only display the labels. All pipes and structures and long section do not display. Yes, I checked all layers are turned on.
I tried using data shortcuts instead, bringing first the relevant part liist and styles. No luck. Again neither a single pipe nor structure is diplayed, although the prospector in the toolspace shows the network is referenced in the drawing. I am not sure if this matters, but the C3D source drawing contains a second pipe network referenced using data shortcuts which, by the way, doesn't display either when xrefing. I tried xrefing the C3D file using my C3D template and it works fine. So I guess that, somehow, the AutoCAD template used to creat the drawings is preventing some C3D objects to be displayed when xrefed.
I know I could recreate all our layout plans using my C3D template. Unfortunately, that would be a long process since we have quite a few and they're all heavily xrefed, with many layer properties overriden.

This works well in 4 out of 5 of my corridor drawings, however, 1 of the files does not display these lines in the cross-sections. I already checked turned-off layers and that's not it. When I check the individual Section View Properties, these alignments (& corresponding profiles) show up in the list, just not on the actual cross-section.
