AutoCad :: 2010 - How To Draw Cable Tray Layouts

Apr 24, 2013

I am attempting to draw a cable tray layout in Autocad 2010. I am very much new to Autocad.

Basically, i want to draw a cable tray on pedestals which are arranged in a rectangular area. Now, I can draw bends so that the tray stay on pedestals but my question is how to draw the tray that is equidistant from both the corners of the pedestal? There are 6 pedestals arranged in a rectangular manner. All the pedestals are of equal length and width.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Retaining Developed Length On Flexible Cable Tray - Adaptivity?

Mar 15, 2012

I want to put a cable tray going from a sliding door to a fixed piece of steelwork.  When the door opens and closes, I want the cable tray to adjust to suit the sliding door.  I'll upload the file that I have made. When i drag the sketch it all moves accordingly, but when I placed in the assembly and make it adaptive it does nothing, it will not constrain and it will only bring up the errors.

Revit :: Reference Level Parameter In Cable Tray Schedule?

Dec 28, 2011

 I need to add "Level" into my Cable Tray schedule; we need to sort the cable trays lengths by floor level.  However, "Level" is not listed as one of the available fields, even though level information (show up as "Reference Level)  is one of the constraints in the cable tray model.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Translate Cable Along With Rotating Cable Constraint

Feb 28, 2012

I am working on a assembly where a cable wrapped around a drum is animated to rotate with the drum, and there is a longer cable coming off of the rotating cable wrap, this longer piece goes down to another cable on a roller assembly. I have edited the assembly to work without the actual cable drum and without the roller assembly ( I wasnt allowed to share those models ) There are now two cylinders in place of the cable drum, a Grounded center to hold everything in place, a Rotating center which is animated so the wrap can rotate.

My problem is when the part named "Drum to Roller" is a lofted cable with angled ends to meet the "Drum wire wrap" at one end and it meets the "Radius cable ends" at the other end. I need the "Drum to roller" to stay constrained to the "radius cable ends" as well as the "drum wire wrap" ... and after being constrained still animate.

I have set up the animation and you will see that the "Drum wire wrap" is animated to keep the end vertical , the animation is set up to look like the "drum wire wrap' is un-raveling cable and the "drum to roller" is to be what un ravels.

I need to find a way so that the "drum to roller" translates down and over , staying constrained to the "drum wire wrap".. You will see that so far it does not.

I have attached two links below they include the two halfs of my assembly, place all the files in the same folder so you wont have to search for them manually.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Cable Harness In Drawing Will Not Hide

Dec 19, 2011

I have created a cable/harness in my assembly.  I have to edit the cable to change visability to centerline display in order to turn off visibility in a drawing view. The issue is that on one sheet of my drawing I need to show the cable, but not on the others. As soon as I turn the rendered display on, the cable shows up on all sheets and the visiblity command has no affect. Is there a hotfix for this? I don't remember a problem like this in 2011.

AutoCad :: Insert Template To A Drawing

Nov 29, 2012

I've created a set of templates, A3, A2, A1 A0 etc.

When I open the .dwt at A0 it is fine, the correct dimensions for A0, everything is how it should be.

Now, when I'm in a drawing and go on the tabs, right click, "From Template", select the A0 template and it opens a new tab as normal.

However, the paper size is correct, A0. But the actual frame with the attributes is very small in the cornet, about 25 times smaller, so I'm thinking units, mm to inches, but all the INSUNITS are set to 6.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Insert Arrow Into Drawing?

Jan 28, 2013

I want to insert arrows into an idw.  I usually use 'Leader Text' then leave the text blank.

The only problem with this method is it leaves a small horizontal or vertical line at the 'text' end of the arrow.  Is there a way to get rid of this or is there an alternative way of inserting an arrow?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Insert JPEG Onto Drawing?

Mar 30, 2011

I'm trying to place some pictures (.jpeg, bitmap, whatever) onto an inventor drawing but it won't let me.   I see when you create a sketch in a drawing there is an "image" option in the insert tab, however this option is always grayed out for me no matter what I try. 

The way I insert pictures on a drawing now is just to create a part, put the image as a decal on that part and create a view in a drawing with a shaded view. However with this option the lighting shows up and kills the image quality and it seems too complicated to be the correct way.

AutoCAD .NET :: Insert Block Into Another Open Drawing

Oct 30, 2013

I would like to be able to collect information from a drawing via a sub-form and then insert a block with attributes (populated with collected info) into another open drawing.  The insert operation would be launched from a button on my sub form.

Is this possible?

From the code below I attempted a test to simply select a point from another open drawing but was not successful.  However, once I closed both forms the target drawing file is activated.

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Me.Hide()
Dim docMgr As DocumentCollection = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager
Dim i As Integer = 0
For Each doc As Document In docMgr

Apr 3, 2012

I am using Autocad 2012, I made a drawing frame template up in model space, then saved it into the DWT template folder, when I go into Layout and into insert to insert the template it will not show up.

I reloaded the DWT template back into model space and saved it as a DXF and I am able to insert the dxf template in Layout using the insert Block.

I can get the job done by using the dxf template but I would like to be able to insert the DWT template.

AutoCAD .NET :: Draw A Border Around All Entities In Drawing

Jun 21, 2013

I am trying to make a button such that if the user clicks it, AutoCAD will automatically draw a border that just includes all entities in the drawing.(Something) like the viewport border in the paper space)

Approach #1: The first approach could be zoom extent and draw a border around the zoomed view. how to zoom extent and draw a polyline, but can't figure out the exact size of zoomed view.

Approach #2 (optimal) : If the entity is a right circle and my AutoCAD window is not in square shape (for example, the AutoCAD window is maximized and my monitor is wide-screen monitor), Approach #1 will create redundant spaces at the right and left side of the circle entity. So if I could get the grid coordinate of far left, far right, top, and bottom entities, I can draw the optimal border around all entities in the drawing.

AutoCad 2D :: Draw U Bolt In Isometric Drawing?

Nov 19, 2013

I am trying to draw a "u bolt" in an isometric drawing. I found one solution, that served the purpose of giving the customer the general idea of the stands we are trying to sell them, but I'd like to know if there is a way to draw it properly.

I have attached a pdf to show what I came up with. Pipe Stands.pdf The only way I could think to get it to work (look right) in isometric view was to draw to vertical lines, make an arc across them with the elipseisocircle, and then use the path array to fill the U shape with the isocircles. This keeps the tubular shape, and the number of circles resembles bolt threads.

My problem is that the u-bolt is only threaded on the ends, the arched part should be smooth. Since this u bolt is to clamp fiberglass pipe to the stand, those threads (in my drawing) could cause damage. In this instance, I just explained this in the email to the customer, but I'd like to find a way to draw it proper.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cannot Xref Or Insert PDFs Into Drawing

Nov 4, 2013

I’m having a user profile issue on one computer. I have a user, using windows 7 and AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014 on his work station. When using Civil 3D he has two issues: one, he cannot import Dgn’s. I’ve tried everything it just won’t work. Second, he cannot xref or insert PDF’s into a drawing. Now the reason why I say this is a profile issue is because if I log on to his computer (or anyone else log’s on his computer), I can do all those things in Civil 3D, import DGN’s & insert/xref PDF’s. If this user log’s on my computer, he can do all those things in Civil 3D. Import DGN’s & insert/xref PDF’s. Something with his profile on his computer is corrupt and I’m trying to fix it without deleting and creating another user profile.
