when I start up AutoCAD I gat an error message:"Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.Invalid URI: THe format of the URI could not be determined."
I click continue and AutoCAD runs fine. Is there something that I can or shold do to prevent the error message?
I was given an arch length dimension and need to figure out the radius of the arch. I know the depth of the arch but not the width.
Is there a formula for figuring out the radius of an arch with a determined depth?

I am evaluating volumes of concrete removed from a surface and the volumes of concrete poured to replace the demolished concrete.I have created surfaces for each stage of the process in individual drawings.
I have created a drawing for the section views and successfully created cross-sections showing all the surfaces.When I compute materials, determining cut material between 2 of the surfaces, the end area is not always determined at every station.
I have previously noticed end area "shapes" with breaks in them. Each time, this was because there was a void in the surface triangulation.Is there any way that I can interrogate a surface to check whether the triangulation is incomplete, with voids in it?
I posted last week and included the attached screen print showing incomplete triangulation which I only noticed by turning on the "Shades of Gray" visual style.There must be some way to check surfaces without having to use the memory gobbling visual style.
I am trying to draw an alignment for a road. I want the alignment to represent the outside of the curve as the road climbs up and around a mound. Is there not way to do this in Civil 3D?

and now I am thinking I will have to do this manually, extract contours, and trim/extend my way to victory...I really would like to have this in a dynamic situation so I can make adjustments. Also, it would be adventageous to have the line actually follow the grade so I dont have to add curves in etc later...
I bought Video Studio X5 about 6 months ago,Installed it, tried the feature I was interested (Video capture) and it failed. As I really didn't have the time to look deeper into that, I just put it on the side for later. I knew I would need it at a later timeNow, I need it.Of course, it didn't repair itself and failed again (When I launch vid capture it give me the now classic "prepare record failed #15" message and will not record).
Checked the website, there is one update, a service Pack 1. It fails to install "The version of the installation could not be determined"
I tried to download this SP but got a message "The installed version of the application could not be determined. The set up will now terminate"
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find out how the drafting pattern origin is determined in Revit 2013. A model pattern is very easy to adjust, but this is not true of a drafting patterns. How the drafting patterns even determine what their origin is. Is it centered on a project extents - therefore changing as the model expands, or is it set by a 0,0,0 origin similar to AutoCAD (but hidden). In an event it does not seem that this origin is adjustable (unless someone out there knows some Revit magic) so perhaps it does not matter, but I would like to know.

View 10 Replies View RelatedIn most vector based programs I am used to using a function which allows you to paste a copied item to a specific location determined by a point-click. I find this endlessly more useful than pasting to the centre of the screen, or even paste in place, as both are rarely anywhere near where I would like an object to be. I find the function of point-click paste does away with endless dragging of objects across the screen.

What is the best export/import format for sending 3D files. I need some neutral format files, possibly Solidworks but I am not sure. Also any export settings to make sure I get decent quality files.
Nothing like getting a surface model when you want solid model.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've created the attached table (used as legend in drawing, to point out revisions).
Cells in second column from the left are set as data dd/MM/yyyy, so when I change revision I write current data and it give correct format.
The problem is that every time I change layout and come back (or every time I open the drawing), data in empty cells were set to 01/01/1970...but I want them empty.
If I clean them, I clean also the data format.
Over the years I have had to occassionally save (export) an Inventor idw into an AutoCAD dwg file. Now, at IV version 2013, does it still not happen correctly. Why doesn't the process export the title block, border, notes, etc. into AutoCAD's paper space and export the model and dimensions into model space all in one step. It's either all paper space or all model space. Then I have to spend time to correct the AutoCAD drawing. Is there a better method to do this that results in a correct AutoCAD drawing in one export step? Maybe a third party software?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Autocad LT 2012 on Windows 7 Professional. I'm also using Microsoft Office Professional 2010. My question is how to change the colour of all cells in a table at once. For example, I copy a section of an Excel spreadsheet, then use "Paste Special", "Autocad LT entities", to paste it into AutoCad. I would like all the text to be coloured "by layer". If I select all the text and go to "properties", the text colour is set to "by block". I can change this to "by layer", but nothing changes. The only way I can seem to get it to change is by selecting the text in an individual cell, highlighting it, and then changing the colour in the text formatting toolbar. I have to then do this for each individual cell. Is there a way to change them all at once?
View 3 Replies View RelatedYesterday, I sent a drawing that I scaled as 1/2" = 1'-0" in an Adobe PDF, and was told by the receiver that the drawing scale was off by 3-4% when they measured it. Hoping that is was the printer's problem, I sent a drawing from another file to FEDEX, and went and scaled that one myself. Sure enough, it's off. It doesn't matter whether it is windowed or brought in a paper space viewport.
