Apr 10, 2012I have used PEDIT to join multiple polylines, which now appear as polylines. But when I use QSELECT to show all open (non-closed) section, one polyline still shows up as open.
I've attached the file I'm working on. The polyline in question is the green outline on the object on the right.

AutoCad 2D :: Trimming Outside A Closed Polyline

AutoCad 3D :: Extruding Closed Polyline
Mar 2, 2010When I try to extrude this closed polyline (yes it is closed) I get the message "Cannot sweep or extrude a self-intersecting curve." I do this sort of extrusion all the time (closed polylines with various geometry) and usually have no trouble.

Aug 3, 2011I've been using the admittedly pieced together code in order to insert border blocks around a closed polyline. Yhe problem I'm having is that when the Block angle is say "zero" the block is inserted the same way both on top and below the polyline. Since the blocks surround the polyline the blocks on the downside should have an additional 180 degree rotation. How to deduct that the portion of the polyline is in a certain quadrant and adjust the insertion angle as necc? I 'm not sure thats even the best approach.
Dim pso As PromptStringOptions = New PromptStringOptions("Enter name of block to create reference: ")
Dim pr As PromptResult = myEd.GetString(pso)

AutoCAD 2013 :: AREA Of Closed Polyline Is In Sq In First THEN Sq Ft
Oct 31, 2013Presently the "AREA" of a closed polyline is in "sq-in" first, THEN "sq ft".
For everything I do, and likely others, I need sq ft - without having to waste time and roll my cursor over the results.
Is there ANY way to change this default to have sq ft FIRST!??
AutoCAD LT :: Properties Of A Closed Polyline Area

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Hatch Inner Boundary Of Closed Polyline?
Jul 6, 2012I am trying to find a command that will hatch the inner edge of a complex closed poly line, rather than hatch the entire area inside the poly line.
When I have simple shapes such as a rectangle I create a smaller rectangle inside the first that is 1' (or whatever I want my hatched area to be) smaller on all sides than the first rectangle. I hatch by selecting the two rectangles; I change the "Associative" hatch property to "No" and then delete the inner rectangle.
My problem now is that I have a complex closed poly line that I would like to hatch the inner perimeter with a set thickness, say 1 foot. Is there an easy way to hatch a inner boundary of a closed poly line or to recreate a scaled down copy of the poly line that is a set distance smaller all around. I hope I have conveyed the question clearly enough.
AutoCad :: Difference Between Closed And Open Polyline
Oct 10, 2012I can draw a closed polyline representing a closed area.
I can then toggle its 'closed' property and it seems to make no difference. area is same, I can extrude or create regions, I can hatch in either case.
in which specific situations we should bother about whether a polyline is closed or not?

AutoCAD .NET :: Principal Moments Of A Region (or Closed Polyline)?
Aug 29, 2013I'm trying to calculate the principal moments (and section modulus) of a slection of closed polylines.
On this blog, I read that there are some new classes and functions in the AutoCad 2014 objectARX that can do this.
The one that interests me the most is 'RegionAreaProperties.PrincipalMoments Property'.
However with my limited programming skills, I can't get it to work in vb.net.
I thought is was just a property of a region, but something like 'myregion.RegionAreaProperties.PrincipalMoments' does not work.
With the code I already have I use a selectionfilter to select multiple closed polylines. I can convert these to regions if nescesary. But what is the next step? I can't find any samples of it. Not even in the Autodesk Developer's Guide.
AutoCAD Map 3D :: Way To Have Area Of Closed Polyline Stored In Database

View 8 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Open A Closed Polyline
May 14, 2009I drew a very complicated 2-D plot this afternoon. The most majority of the plot is composed of different straight lines, arcs. Then I used the polyline function to join them together to form a closed single polyline (Modify->object->polyline).
Later on I want to change something in part of the polyline. Then I used the 'pedit' again, I chose 'open'. But the whole polyline won't break into its original segments. I tried through all the menus, just cannot find the right tool for this purpose.
Does it mean I have to start over from scratch to redraw the whole plot?
AutoCad 2D :: Getting Custom Linetypes To Face Out On Closed Polyline
Mar 8, 2012I am a landscape architect, and am trying to use bushy linetypes to delineate blobs of mass plantings. I created my custom line types, and tweaked them to the point where they look the way i want, but whenever i have a curve the line type faces in not outside the closed polyline. all of my shapes are closed poly lines, and i need the linetype to face out other wise it looks weird. I am attaching a picture the strait line to the right is the way that it is supposed to look, but in the circle you can see how the points are all facing in to the middle of the circle? reversing the direction dose nothing, and using a or u in the place of r in the linetype shape code doesn't work either below is the line types code and image.

AutoCad 3D :: Extrude 2D Closed Polyline In Straight Line?

I've tried loft, sweep, extrude all using the helix as a path. When I can get a result, it ends up being a corkscrew.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad 3D :: Revolving Closed Polyline Results In SURFACE?
Dec 11, 2012I have been using AutoCAD to create product designs (baby bottles) for the last three years. I am normally drawing lines, arcs and splines to create the shape, then I use PEDIT to create a closed polyline and REVOLVE to create a SOLID 3D object from that shape.
Couple days ago, AutoCAD is not longer creating 3D solids when I use REVOLVE as usual (even using older files and/or the same shapes or polylines that I have used before to create 3D solids). The result of REVOLVE is "SURFACE (REVOLVE)" (I got that from properties). But, the most uncommon thing is that AutoCAD is revolving fine one or two times per day after many many tries. (normally I am closing and opening files and trying to revolve some stuff many times, using the same process and suddenly it revolves the sahpe as a 3D solid)
I attached a picture showing two objects created using the same group of lines, splines and acrs. One is a solid 3d object and the other one is a surface (revolve) as result of using REVOLVE command. WHY????

Also is there a routine that counts the different texts that are in the same polyline?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Block Insertion Point Is Within A Closed Polyline
Oct 11, 2011I've have code to test if the insertion point is within a closed polygon. But prior to testing the insertion point I use ssget to trim the selection set initially..

this requires that the whole Crossing Polygon is visible, so I do a zoom first. This requires time. Is there a way I can do this that does not require the zoom?
