AutoCad :: Draw Long-section From Points?
May 15, 2012I have survey points for a water course and want to draw l-section, which command I should use to draw polyline l-section from all those points in one command.

i want to draw a line long 3 meters and i have to type @ before typing 3. If i dont type @ then there is a problem when i want to dimensioned it - there doesn't appear 3 metres but totaly different number. why that happens?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working on a drawing for the COE. They require that the horizontal scale is 1"=20 feet for cross sections. Unfortunately the sections that I need to cut are so long that they don't fit on the page. Currently I am creating multiple viewports in paper space and creating split section views in that way but it is starting to get out of hand.
Any better way to handle sections that won't fit on a page? I can't change the scale.
I have created an alignment and long section and over layed my assembly to produce the corridor through my alignment. However it is standard practice in the UK to show the channel levels on a long section.

My section lines "legs" are coming in very long in idw.
I unchecked "show entire line" and it still leaves a massive line away from the arrow.
I have a cube and I want to create a section plane that goes trough the middle of 3 edges that have a common point. After this I should be able to erase the smaller solid and keep the bigger one. If needed I will attach an image to be better understood.

I used to pick a point and then pick point 2 to draw rectangle. On this computer when I use rectangle it ask for length and then width. Is there a system variable that won't let me put in p1 and drag to p2 to make a rectangle?

I am trying to generate stake-out data for a proposed road. I was able to get this report to work successfully in one of the Civil 3D tutorials, so I assume that nothing is wrong with the utility. The problem may be related to my corridor.
i have a series of points from a cross section taken using an adcp and i am trying to draw the cross section in autoCAD lt 2014. is there a way i can enter the points as a sort of script so i dont have to manually typoe in the distance and height between each point as i have about 200 points in each cross section.

I have a problem with the corridor section points report on Civil 3d 2014. It only presents the first station on the corridor.

I want to draw a circle so that it passes through two points and tangent to the given line.
I am drawing a gear and now i need to connect points to draw involute for a gear tooth: [URL] ...
Points are numbered. I'm trying to draw with a spline, but i don't know where to put last point of a spline to draw an exact involute - like for example - if i would draw like this and press enter - i would get this spline: [URL] ...
But if i would move cursor in a different direction and then press enter - i would still get almost identical spline, but still, not the same: [URL] ...
So how do i draw an accurate involute? Maybe i should draw one more point and then stop drawing spline?
how can i draw this red line in autocad, its an arc from point 1 to point 3 in spherical 4 side segment? point 1 to point 2 to point 3 to point 4 closing the segment at point 1 and point 4 (fused)
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find out if there is a way to change the code for the Corridor Section Points Report. See attachment.
In page 1 of the attachment you will see the names that we prefer for the different zones in our assembly as per our Standards.
On page 2 is the default names that C3D spits out as defaults (under String Cut).
We are running C3D 2012.

Just learning 2D CAD and trying to draw a cross section of a timber winder stairs as the strings change angle (I think) at the winder section. Looking at 3nr winding steps.
Setting out a standard stairs is okay, so I have the floor to floor height.
I have to put some trusts between two beam. It sounds easy but i'm unable to handle the divide and round off commands in the lisp. See attachement also.
To draw my trust between the 2 beams, what I normally do, is that I manually take the distance between the two points say it's 10 000 and wrote it down. Then I divide it by my max gap, say 1200, it is the max space between trust.
10 000/1200 = 8.333333 that's the result of how much trust and space between them that i'll need, 8 trusts, 9 spaces between the 2 beams. (That is what I'm unable to do in the lisp, tell it to round off 8.333 to 9 and use 9 for divide command)
What I manually do at this point to draw these trust is that I must create a temporarly line between the 2 beams, perpendicularly to these and divide it by 9.
It gives me 8 cross (or point) to draw my trusts. All this is long to do manually because I have many bay in building and I have to redo this operation for every the bay.
So, what I would like the lisp to ask is:
Specify distance between two beams (Between where and where) :
Specify the lenght of the trust :
Specify max gap: I would like to answer a number here, say like 1200 max
(The lisp should draw the lines on the current layer, color and linetype of the current layer and not draw a line at the beginning and at the end because that's where my Beams are. I hoped you understand, see attachement.
Should also have something that handle a ESCAPE hit or cancel, something like this:
(defun trap1 (errmsg) (command "_.undo" "_end") ; undo end (setvar "osmode" oldsnap) ; restore variables (setvar "cmdecho" 1) ; enable cmdecho (setq *error* temperr) ; restore old error handler (prompt "

I'm trying to change a routine i just wrote that draws 3d pipes. I wanted to make it so that when a user selects the beginning point and ending point of the pipe, the LISP changes the ucs to that vector, draws the circle at the beginning point and extrudes it to the second point.
It actually works great except when the ucs changes, so do my user points because of teh origin change. Is there a better way I might get this to do what I wnat it to?
(setq ip (getpoint "
Pick First Point:"))(setq ep (getpoint "
Pick Second Point:"))(command ".ucs" "za" ip ep)(setvar "osmode" 0)(command ".circle" ip "d" od)(command ".extrude" (entlast) "" (distance ip ep))(command ".ucs" "w")(setvar "osmode" oldsnap))

I just want to create a section from the point cloud, but the point cloud won't allow me to select it as an object in the 'Generate 2D/3D section' dialogue as it's not a solid/surface.
On an unrelated note, I find snapping to the point cloud impossible - is there an option in OSNAP that I'm missing? I've tried this with attached PCGs and RCP point clouds, no difference.
