I have a 2 ECW xrefed as images into a drawing which I use as the aerial xref the problem is when I change the UCS the ecw disappears.
So the image only shows when the ucs is set to WUCS - I should also note that just the image disappears I can still see the image frame.
I use a lot of PDF and Raster images to reference, now I have two different PDFs that are over lapped.
Is there a way to make the top PDF say 50% transparent so I can see both at the same time?
My Coworker has an issue with dimensions disappearing while she is working on completing her drawing. We have tried using Audit..did not work, we thought it was maybe the anno visible tab did not work. She thinks that she did nothing out of the ordinary while working on the drawing. See attached drawing. The drawing is after all but a couple dimensions have disapperaed.

I am drawing a pond levy. I draw the outline of the top of the fill, set that at the elevation I want, then grade it down to the existing surface on a 6:1. The grading works perfectly. The outline of the fill's footprint shows up just fine around the back of the fill, but the toe line doesn't show up all along the front side of the fill, but I still get the slope lines projecting down in the front.

As in, it's gone. No longer on the network anywhere. These were 3 different drawings in different projects.The drawings were not new, they had been previously created and worked in by more than one user. We were able to find a backup file and did not lose everything but still thinking there has to be something causing this. The machine is a Dell Precision T5600, 16 GB of RAM, only had it for a few months.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am tasked with tidying up some drawings that have been exported from Vectorworks and it seems there is a fundamental problem with the drawing.
Some lines do not appear when viewing the drawing, they only appear when panning or when I select all. There are some cases where a line disappears behind a rectangle as if it had a hatch fill yet no such thing exists.
I have attached the drawing in question.
I am using AutoCAD 2012 for Mac.
I've had this happen before, but usually after typing in REGEN it reappears. I'm having trouble while I'm drafting the tool tip disppears in the drwing window, not if I select a tool, etc.

Upon binding my dwgs to send to clients, sometimes I run across a serious problem. My xref'ed site plans disappear but my xref manager still lists it as attached, the layer manager still has every xrefed layer, and all other xrefs in the dwg will bind perfectly.
I have broken down all complex objects, purged, audited, cleaned up any excess scales, and even created new fresh dwgs for the xref and the drawing in question; all actions have ended in failure. I have even searched the AutoDesk forums for a solution and have found nothing substantial.
Solution: #1 Use RECOVERALL command on .dwg file that the xrefs disappear from. It will remove all proxy objects and excess scales in the file that is causing it to disappear in the first place.
#2 WBLOCK out the dwg file and any xrefs that are disappearing and insert them into new "clean" .dwg files. Must be done to all files.
the legs seem to be missing bits. They were fine and then i added the seat and back and suddenly parts of the leg vanished??? Still not there when i render.
View 9 Replies View RelatedBasically, whenever you want to insert a block from outside of this drawing to it you can see it on the screen but after insertion it is disappearing!
+ There is no frozen layer
+ It happens on Modelspace and Paperspace both
+ It happens just on the blocks that you want to insert from outside
+ I used Design Centre to insert a block same issue occurs. The block is not inserted in to the drawing as a hidden object because it is on the Purge list but you can find it on the Insert Block window dropdown menu and when you want to insert it from there again same issue happens! I guess there might be an AutoCAD variable is playing with us here that somebody accidentally changed it.
+ When you use the Quickselect you cannot find any of those blocks on the drawing as well
When i am working in fusion or opening the 3D model (dwf format) in a viewer 3d faces tend to show up on some models and other models some faces disappear. in viewer on product was fine but as soon as i saved it as stp. then opened it in stp. viewer the outer wall was gone.
1. Does this happen to other people?
2. How can i correct this from not happening?
When I pick 'User defined' under Pattern, I lose the Angle and Spacing boxes. If I insert a hatch with the default settings of 0 degrees and 1 unit, then double-click on the hatch to bring up the Hatch Creation panel, the boxes are displayed and I can set them to the values I want. This first happened in 2012LT and continues in 2013LT - how to prevent the boxes disappearing?

I'm laying lines on top of an airial photo and my lines seem to be disappearing under the graphic. I know the lines are there, because they will highlight when the cursuer passes over them. Sometimes the lines will be on top and then under. I know there is something I'm doing wrong but can't figure it out. Is there a "Bring to the Front" like in MicroSoft applications.

View 6 Replies View Relatedi use conceptual in my viewports to give a rough 3D of what i am drawing. some settings have changed that i am not familiar with i would like to restore them to the original settings. the following pics show the difference. Im Not talking about the back ground.
The pic with the black backgroud is not how i like the settings to be. they seem too bright and its kind of glowing.New Settings.jpg...The pic with the white background is what im looking for. the items seem to be a flatter finish to them. If all this makes sense how do i change it back?
I can't see that I changed any setting (never do) or did anything to make it so the instruction line under the Command: window at the bottom of the screen now expects me to enter text, i.e. In the Command Window we have "open", after I clicked on File / Open, but instead of being taken to the usual drop down of my hard drive the bottom line on my monitor reads, "Enter name of drawing to open <.>: The same thing happens if I try to save a drawing. This is making it extremely difficult to open and save, i.e. to work....

My sag and Crest profile labels disappear when opening the drawing.
I know the possibility of a plot style just disappearing is slim to none, but I have this user that constantly claims her plot styles have "disappeared".
When I check them, the entire "Plot Style" folder is gone. One day it's there the next it's gone.
She also has this problem with the DWG to PDF print option. It was there, now it's gone. She claims she isn't deleting anything. I will get them back on her PC and a few months later they will be gone.
She is a contract worker who also spends time at her office off site. I am not sure what version of AutoCAD she is using. I manage an AutoCAD group of about 20 users and none have this problem.
I have some blocks with attributes, with the default of some of the attributes being blank. When I try to transfer the block to my Tool Palette, the block loses the attributes that have blank defaults. Why are these attributes disappearing from the block?

All other drawings are fine and if I create another even using the same model it works just fine but I'd rather find out why than re-do the whole drawing.
I'm trying to generate frame members around a combination of 2D & 3D sketches, the preview is fine however when I click apply and OK it magically vanishes
Everything is set up fine in the 'Insert Frame' dialogue box and the previews look spot on.

View 4 Replies View Relatedwe are having a problem here at our office. this revolves around one file. When I open the file, some objects (text, hatch, lines - all different layers) disappear. This happens before any command is made, and the object that disappear are on layers that are active and not frozen on all viewports. Also, the rest of the objects on the layer are visable. Other objects on these layers are visable, and the objects that disappeared are not visable on the model space or paper space. On top of that, when someone else opens the file, different objects turn invisable, and they can see the things I cant. The drawing takes about 5+ mins to load, dispite it being not a very large file. I tried purging unused items, reconciling layers, unhiding everything, freezing and unfreezing all layers and restarting autocad.
Coincidentaly the x-ref dwg is having a very similar issue.
I'm using AutoCAD 2013. I need to explode text so that it will appear as line work, otherwise my surveying instrument won't display it.
When i use the express tools explode text command, the text disappears, this message is shown in the command bar
"The line objects have been placed on layer 0."
However, there is nothing on layer zero. Might this have something to do with missing shape files, or can AutoCAD only explode certain simple forms of text?
We are using ACA2010 and use the project navigator to bring constructs into views then bring the views into sheets, which has been working great, but in the last few months we have gone to a sheet only to find that the view no longer contains the constructs. I was working on a project on Friday and the Site Plan view no longer had the site xrefed into it which I fixed, now today the Site Plan is fine but the Roof Plan is empty. This is not the 1st project this has happened to but it is the 1st time it has happened to me so I know nobody changed something they should not have. Is there a known bug in 2010 or something I should check. I don't want this to happen to the Floor Plan if it does I will lose all my dimensions.
