Oct 17, 2011I'm trying to read objects on a specific layout in an external drawing.
Reading the external drawing is not a problem when the objects are in "*Modelspace".
But finding the specific layout id and throwing that in an Blocktabelrecord is.
Here is the code.
Dim NaamDwg = "C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2011SampleDatabase Connectivitydb_samp.dwg"
Dim strLaagNaam = "FURNITURE"

Dec 1, 2011I worked in a drawing(#1) a few weeks ago and since then have copy pasted the drawings to be scaled at 1 1/2" into another drawing(#2) and have since been only working in this drawing(#2).
In the original drawing(#1), I was able to scale my drawings at 1 1/2" without any problems but in my second drawing(#2), when I try to scale drawings at 1 1/2" all of my annotative bubbles get ridiculously small.
Once having discovered this, I copy pasted my second drawing'(#2) components into a 'Copy' of my original drawing(#1), thinking that my second drawing(#2) file might have been contaminated, but with no luck because I could see that within the Same viewport scaled at 1 1/2" the original drawing(#1) was scaled properly but the second drawing'(#2) symbols became very small.
I am stuck.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Viewports In Same Layout Showing Different Drawings?
May 22, 2013Is it possible to show two different viewports in the same layout that show views from two different drawings? So one viewport would show a section of the current drawing's modelspace, and the second viewport would show a a section of modelspace from another drawing? (and possibly update automatically like an XREF?) Or would the easiest way be to just XREF both drawings into a new drawing, and then show viewports from them in the new drawing?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD LT :: Previous Drawings Shown Only In Reduced Layout Tabs
May 6, 2013Had an electrical storm and there was a power surge the moment I was saving my completed drawing. Yes, it was perfect timing and yes, I have a power backup. Now titleblock is shown in model space and completed drawings are only shown when scrolling over layout tabs. When I click on the layout tabs only the titleblock shows up. Is there anyway of retrieving the drawings to send back to model space or get them to appear in the layout tabs when shown on the full screen? Are those layout tabs just showing what the drawings used to look like and there is no way of getting to them back?

Apr 12, 2013For the past 2 days when I switch from one drawing to another, my layout tabs are not updating and stay the same as the previous drawings. I have to do a regen to get the proper tabs in place. All the layouts are there...it is just the tabs that are messed up. Once I click on one of the tabs they straighten themselves out as well, but on that first selection I never get the correct drawing that I want!

Sep 2, 2013I work with a 0.1 text height (in the model tab). I want to have in the layout tab a 1.5 text height always. That is when the scale is 1:200, 1/50, etc.

AutoCad 2D :: Layout Doesn't Scale Right
Mar 23, 2013I've got a drawing of a site, which is about 144 meter long, so 144000 mm to put it in autocad units. I drew it completely in millimeters, and made a new scale in the layout view 1:500, all my units are set to millimeters.
I would expect when chosing the scale 1:500 it would precisely fit on my paper, as 144000/500=288 and the longest side of an A4 paper is 297.
But somehow, when chosing the scale, things get seriously messed up... My drawing is no longer recognizable at all as it is zoomed in way to far...
Also, when watching youtube video's about lay-out, I always see a little toolbar under the main frame (the one where your title stands) saying things like new viewport and page setup. Somehow it's not visible with me... How can I turn it on?

Ive tried to change it back to 1:1 but it wont accept it and keeps the .808XXX value.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Scale Not Compatible Between Two Drawings
Oct 5, 2012I work very closely with a customer, and have been asked to implement their drafting standards for a dwg file they received from another vendor. I have attached two drawings, 1 (their vendor's) and 2 (mine, in progress). When opened, I notice the linetype scale *appears* different between the drawings (note the differences within "LINE LEGEND" section of both drawings). It *appears* as though Drawing 2 has double the linetype scale of Drawing 1.
I realize that within Drawing 2 I could set the LTSCALE variable to 0.5, but that seems like a work-around and may cause problems with other aspects of the customer's drafting standards in the future.
I've already confirmed that both drawings have the same values for LTSCALE, PSLTSCALE, MSLTSCALE, CELTSCALE. I've also already confirmed that, for the "PACKAGED EQUIPMENT" entry with the legend, the properties dialog box shows the exact same values for all fields. Lastly, (trying [URL] .....) I re-loaded the linetype for PHANTOM2.
I'd like to have them both appear the same, if possible.
AutoCAD Map 3D :: Unable To Change View Scale In New / Old Drawings
Aug 6, 2013Someone was using my computer and maybe they clicked on some button but now if I am in a layout and double click on my viewport I can not change the View Scale by typing in a custom scale.
I typically work in meters and do subdivision layout so I use 1:500 up to 1:5,000 but now even though the view ports are unlocked the number will not change when I type it in but I can zoom in and out with my mouse.
I can pick a scale in viewport scale like 1:5 1:1 but prefer to type in my scale as I like to plot it.
AutoCad 2D :: Hatch With Same Scale - Appearing Differently In Different Drawings?

View 8 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Blocks Coming Into Drawings At Wrong Scale
Aug 3, 2011I recently started working at an Electrical Engineering firm and one of my many tasks is to sort out their AutoCad system and bring it up to date! An issue that has only recently started happening is that our blocks don't insert at the correct scale. Some of our drawings are metric and some are imperial, and currently all our blocks are in one Imperial file (reference file for our palettes). Is this our issue, my understanding is that when you create a block you should create it as a wblock and each block should have its own file.
The problem is that some of our blocks we want to come in at scale ex/ a 2'x4' light fixture, however an electrical socket or light switch symbol we want to come in at a slightly enlarged scale so that you can easily read the drawing and see where they are located.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Sheet Set Manager Importing Existing Drawings Layout Tabs
Jul 26, 2010I've created a new sheet set with some existing drawing files. These files have several layout tabs in each drawing. The Sheet Set Manager (SSM) seems to import the layout tabs in random order, not in the order they appear on the drawing, nor in alphabetical or numerical order. In addition, the SSM imports and numbers all of my drawings in reverse order. Any system variable setting, or some other property setting somewhere that will change this back to ascending order?
View 7 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Hatches - Different On Layout At Same Scale
Apr 5, 2012I have this complex section of an architectural project, which is drawn at 1:1 scale (obviously). It has lots of constructive details, however i've made lots of layers and everything is under control.However, as I started to hatch the drawings, i was having big problems at using the same drawing for different scales, because non-annotative hatches also change their size with different scales.
So I began trying annotative, and i did it as i read in several how-tos. I made an hatch in the layout to know the perfect scale for the hatch, then applied that scale in model hatches. Then, in properties, I selected the scales at which that hatch should belong. Until here everything was OK!
However, as the ideal scale for the hatches (ANSI31) was something like 0.0003, here started the problems. The layout has an erratic behavior with similar hatches (I even tried to use match props to be sure different hatches had the same properties). On different viewports, some of the hatches appear as solid, and they plot just like that! As I zoom in and zoom out, the problem changes, as problematic viewports become right and others become wrong.
I tried to change HPmaxlines to 10000000, i tried to change the size of ansi31 in acad.pat, however the problem persists. It seems that the problem disappears when i have increase the hatch scale to, lets say, 0.05, however it's not that scale I want because of the presentation...

View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Drawings In Meters In Model Space - Print Scale
Nov 1, 2013I recently joined a firm that has been working drawings up in meters in model space
The issue comes that when i go to input a scale at the viewport stage the drawing is tiny. Ive always worked in mm and thus never had this issue when using the standard 'z' enter 's' enter 1/##xp' to achieve the desired scale
i would like to understand how i can still work these drawings without scaling everything up in model space at a factor of 1000, which is the only way i can think of getting round this issue.
