AutoCad :: Hatch Does Not Recognize Boundaries
Apr 20, 2011I've tried redrawing the shape (which is all I could think of at this point), and I still can't get a hatch in the negative space of this extrusion.

View 9 RepliesI am having trouble hatching multiple "Arc & line" boundary objects. If there is ony 1 shape mape up of Arcs & Lines it works ok, but if there is more than one, it fails,
TVLn(0) = New TypedValue(0, "line")
Dim FilterLn As New SelectionFilter(TVLn)
' Selection Filter: Arcs

I need to remove Hatch boundarys. I have tried Hatch Edit - Remove boundarys. Then AutoCad wants me to select Select object or..
I cant seem to select anything in this option?
is there a way to extend the hatch if the region is later extended? bd.png
the yellow highlights show the regions that are “empty” in hatch after the boundary has been changed. My current approach is to first delete the hatch, then re-apply it, but it can be very inconvenient if there are multiple regions to change.
Is there a way to automatically associate the existing hatch with new boundary (either extended or shrunk)?
When I was using AutoCad 2010 I could HATCH within a cube, circle or within any object that was joined together even if it had text in it would HATCH within the boundaries of the area to be hatched. Now that I use AutoCad 2013 this option does not work as if there is text in the object only a partial area will become hatched. This means I have to MOVE the cube or whatever shape to a place where there is no text inside it, HATCH and then move it back to where I wanted it in the first place.

My problem is that I have never done hatching in VB.NET before, and now I am required to hatch a rectangular area (defined by lines) within an AutoCAD block. How to go about accomplishing this task.
To create my block, I am using a DBObjectCollection to store my lines, and then append them to the block definition, creating a reference to see what I just created.
If I were to define a rectangular outline within this block, how can I possibly hatch it?
My application has suddenly started to link the hatch pattern to the area boundaries.
The objects remain on their own layers, but I am not able to delete the hatch pattern without deleting the boundaries.
I cannot edit the hatch pattern either as the application no longer recognises the hatch pattern.
Have i changed a setting unwittingly?
I am trying to entmake a hatch entity from a hatch template.
After entget the template hatch entity, i get the followings

Now I wrote the following code using the above data as follows

The point variables pt1, pt2....pt8 are all defined. But when I run the code the hatch is not being created? Why?
I have a hatch (ANSI31) enclosed by a closed polyline. Whenever I change the hatch from ANSI31 to GRAVEL some of the hatch shows up outside the boundary. The Polyline consists of both arcs and line segments, and the hatching errors are occurring within the radius of the arc segments. Changing it from Associative to Non Associative makes no change.
I am using AutoCAD 2011.
I am in need of a lisp routine which will automatically pick up all hatch and solid hatch patterns within a drawing and change the colour to colour 254.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to add a Block Reference to a hatch. I'm adding the block reference to an ObjectIdCollection and the hatch is not taking it when using AddLoop().
So I thought maybe I needed to add the location of the polyline (curve-like) object that is member of the blockreference to the hatch, but I don't know how to get its ObjectId.
Hatch thisHatch = new Hatch();thisHatch.Layer = layerName;thisHatch.SetDatabaseDefaults();thisHatch.SetHatchPattern(patternType, patterName);thisHatch.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByColor, colorIndex);thisHatch.Transparency = new Transparency((Byte)(255 * (100 - 60) / 100));tSpace.AppendEntity(thisHatch);transaction.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(thisHatch, [code]........
Also, I'm trying to delete certain HatchLoop that is associated to a polyline but I don't know how to do it. I'm going through the loops in the hatch but I don't know what to do there. I wanna do this so I create a new and different hatch on top.
I think one could also copy all the loops except the one one wants to delete, but I'm not sure how to tell which one is the one I want to delete that is the one associated to a polyline or that is in certain region.
I have AUTOCAD LT 2012 - windows 7 - SP1
Neither the button for Hatching or the Draw Hatch menu do not activate the HATCH DIALOG BOX?
This means I cannot Hatch?
I have also added the Hotfix for the Ribbon and it made no difference.
I've migrated from 2005 to 2014 LT and wondered if they have added to the hatch commands. I've looked and haven't found anything. Is there a command that you can pick a hatch pattern already shown on the drawing and make that pattern the existing one to use? I sometimes have multiple hatch patterns and scales, and wanted a quick way to go from one to another without lisp help.

Inside some of the boundaries (type = "HIDE") the contours do not show up, but in others, some segments of the contour lines are visible and others are not. How do I get all of the contour segments to be not visible within the boundaries?

Now, I notice an area that was not included in any of the small surfaces, but was part of the original large surface. Somehow, this area is showing up in my final surface. So far I tried adding the polyline that forms the 'outer' boundary of each small surface also as a 'data clip' boundary, but don't see any difference. Only thing that works is delete surface point...click, click, click.
I'm making other routine and I want to check if there is some boundaries in the selected surface and in that case, which of them has the most priority.
contorno= "boundary" and exterior=SurfaceBoundaryType.Outer
I have done this: URL....
I think that the last boundary in the list is the first boundary priority.How can I get that list?
is it possible, when you insert a pdf into a drawing for not plotting the boundaries of this pdf?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI know that I´m supposed to make one drawing for each level when I draw several story buildings, but this time for some reason I just did one drawing for the whole building, and then I xref the different sections into it. Problem is that in plan view when I want to view plan 2 I get the windows and doors etc from plan 1.
No problems, I thought, I´ll just create a clipping boundary so that everything beneath plan 2 will be hidden, and it works really well when in 3d view, but as soon as I press the "top" button, the whole xref suddenly disappear!

Found this code at //blog.civil3dreminders.com/2011/0 ... aries. html to extract all surface boundaries - something I do a lot. How can I take this code and use it in C3D 2012
Extract All Surface Boundaries
Ever want to extract a bunch of surface boundaries? I have, but I don't really want to select each and every surface. Here is some code for VBA that will automate the process.
Sub ExtractBoundaries()
Dim oAcadObject As AcadObject
For Each oAcadObject In ThisDrawing.ModelSpace
If (TypeOf oAcadObject Is AeccTinSurface) Then
Dim oSurf As AeccTinSurface
Set oSurf = oAcadObject
oSurf.ExtractBorder aeccDisplayOrientationPlan
End If
Next
End Sub

I am trying to create islands of surface by multiple enclosed polylines as boundaries.
Each enclosed polyline has several 3d lines as drawing objects.
After creating the surface from the 3d lines I use "Select similar" to select all boundaries(enclose polylines) and add them as boundaries using the "Show" option.
However, it is not working and I do not see the islands of a surface.
I used to have a tool (not sure where I got it from) that would extract all surface boundaries that were in a drawing but this tool no longer works in 2014 as it was written for 2012. Time/inclination to write a similar routine that would work in 2014?

I have an assembly that uses reference parts. I do not want them in the BOM, but they are used in other drawings in the BOM. When I make them reference, the iso drawing view boundaries are not correct. Can I change the size? Crop will only decrease the size not increase?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have several surfaces pasted to make a composite surface, and a poly line is added as a none destructive boundary.
The surface looks fine on the screen, but when it is exported to LandXML the boundary is ignored, This creates a 120MB XML file, which will not load into Windes for Drainage work.
I can trim the breaklines defining each surfaces, but there is 8 models and 8 different areas to trim in this manor. This would take far too long and would also create 64 surfaces!!!
There is a default viewport in Layout1. How can I reposition and resize it on the paper? It would also be sufficient if I could delete it--how do I do that? (then I could create one that fit my needs)
Briefly, what are disadvantages of not using Model view?
How do I set a constraint where 2 parts are attached to each other but do not phase through. For example if I have a door in a door frame, how do I add a constraint where the door can swing on it's hinges but get stopped by the door frame.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI like that in the hatch command, you can select multiple boundaries at a single time, hit ok, and be done with your hatching. However, when hatching from the tool palette, you can only select one boundary at a time, forcing you to constantly repeat the command. Is there a system variable that controls this type of behavior for the tool palette?
