AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Pipe Trench On Surface?

Sep 30, 2013

creating pipetrench1 on my surface.

Currently, I wanna make an alignment from a 16-inch pipe, which will then be positioned inside a trench.

Im guessing that i had inserted some parameters wrongly.

Here is the sample drawing: [URL]

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Trench With Pipe Corridor Falls To Zero Elevation

Jul 6, 2012

I'm trying to create a trench with pipe corridor along the alignment.

What I've did:

-create an alignment;
-create a pipe nework based on my alignment;
-then I made a profile with my pipe network and draw profile;
-create an assembley;
-create a corridor with one baseline.

When I've checked the corridor I found some weird spotes that are linked to zero elevation.

I've created another alignment from daylight of my corridor, but it doesn't worked.

Where mistake is???

Trench in object viewer

Profile of major alignment

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Project Crossing Pipe Onto Road Center Line

Apr 24, 2012

I need to project a crossing pipe onto a road centerline.  I have water running down one side of the road 7' off the centerline of the road and sewer running down the other 8' off the centerline.  There is storm drain running perpendicular across the road.

The sewer and the water are projected onto the centerline of road profile.  When I draw the crossing pipes in that profile view and change the override, because it does not cross the centerline, it disappears from the profile view. How can I accurately show the crossing at the proper invert of the respective crossing without drawing the ellipses manually?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Line With Thicker Appearance Than Typical Line Of Width 0

Mar 26, 2009

I am looking to draw my pipe with a thicker appearance than the typical line of width "0". Our storm pipes are usually drawn with this so as to stand out from other utilities. If the pipe is represented by a polyline, I have usually adjusted the "Width" or "Global Width" value to my liking. With pipe objects, it seems more complicated. I have searched the settings, and the closest thing that I could find was the Lineweight property, but that appears to have no effect on the line thickness in the CAD drawing.

Do I need to tweak a plot setting? Make a new linetype altogether?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Line Break In Text Label Doesn't Center 2nd Line Like It Does First

Feb 22, 2012

I have an FDO layer which I am styling like so:

Concat ( FDO_LAYER1,  Concat ( '
',  FDO_LAYER2  )   )

This layer is styled so that all text is centered. In this case, FDO_LAYER2 is having it's text left aligned. I'm pretty sure this is due to the method I am using for a new line. Is there something else I can use to break the line and maintain the center styling?

Using a second point for FDO_LAYER2 is not an option.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Cursor Change To Draw Line But Line Doesn't Appear

Dec 5, 2011

I have a problem with a recently downloaded version of Inventor.  When I start a new drawing all I get is a blank blue screen instead of one with a grid display.  If I start a line I can see the cursor change to draw the line but a line does not appear.  I don't know if it something with how I installed the program or just system settings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Refresh Content Center Pipe Fittings Error

Nov 3, 2011

I have created custom pipe fitting categories in my server based content center. I copied the standard familes over to a custom library and modified them. After updating the family tables, and hitting refresh in an assembly, the updates fail.

This is the error I get:

Failed: Standard is owned by Tube&Pipe. The part must be refreshed by Tube&Pipe application.

These parts were placed via "Place from content center" as I do not have the tube & pipe addin (2011 suite, not pro)

How do I get these compnonents to update / refresh??

AutoCAD Architecture :: 3D Pipe Appears To Be 2D Line?

Apr 25, 2012

Whenever I xref this file or copy this pipe and paste it to the other, the pipe appears to be a single line, what's the reason of it?  I have all of the object enablers loaded.  This is the only file that keeps acting like this?  This is from the subs, so it's not generated from Autodesk softwares. it's a converted DWG file.

Photoshop :: Draw A Line Using The Line Tool

Jul 26, 2005

1. if i draw a line using the line tool.. can i curve it to say 40 degrees like i can with the text function?

2. So ya that one was easy.. hows bout when i want to cut something out ACCURATELY, the pen function, right? (according to a friend)when i make all those little boxes and select the area i want to cut, all that gets copied are the outer lines, which i presume is what ive just drawn.. how do i cut the area inside this?

3. and finally maybe a slightly less easy one- In Paint, when you cut out an object and paste it, you can select for the white of the image to become transparent so you can paste over what you have already.. is thee a feature in PS for this?

3ds Max Animation :: Excavating A Trench

May 7, 2012

I'm working on an animation that involves showing an excavator digging out multiple layers of strata. I can think of a few potential ways to do this, involving vol select and particles primarily, but that doesn't always come off super realistically. Any way to semi-realistically show the excavator digging in and picking up the dirt before dropping it back to earth?
