View 9 Repliesour drawings are protected by a password.We have a VB.NET programm to export a drawing without password.

Dim securityPar As New SecurityParameters(Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)

In AutoCAD Architecture 2009 (Win XP) it works fine.
In AutoCAD Architecture 2011 (Win 7) the drawing is still password protected.
I am trying to enter use the URL... and I am prompted by an Password Protection.
1.) crosshair
2.) clear swipe areas
3.) Desktop Tools (like the Idea where you placed the "hacked" ones)
4.) beiing able to kill the tabs at the bottom and the apple bar at the top
5.) TRIM MODE like AVID (no ones really knows how handy this thing is when you have 16or more audio tracks at a feature film)
6.) Give us a snapshot of an image that we can grade a little bit better. (or show me where it is ;-))
7.) Easy subtitle option (STL Import or whatever - change all the 700 Titles in one go...
8.) The ability to conform to PARTIAL FileNames (would make relinking of fals imported D5 Material from Meda Composer wayyyy easier - since AVID keeps the names but adds a zillion of useless characters at the end)
8.a) straight forward force relink option.
9.) simple blur functions in text editor
10.) direct output for H.264 for blu ray that we can use directly in Encore (or do we have that?)
Can you make a members area using the password protected feature?

By the way. Only happens when I try to save it from VB. In ACAD I can open and save fine.
I have a drawing for our current project. I wish to share this drawing to other disciplines but shouldn't be modified by others. We can password protect that file, but it will ask password while opening it. I need to protect this file like Excel that "anyone can open it but they can't modified istead of typing password". I need to open and attach as xref it in autocad not in autocad reader (DWS).

"Drawing File is Write Protected" - I am the only on in the files, so now my file is currently Read Only - then I am able to re-open the same file as the same time I have the currently read only version open.
I am getting this currently after or during Plan Production, creating sheets, and I do a qsave.

I'm a photographer, and I do a lot of editing in Photoshop.
One time my computer's OS crashed, and it's an emergency to finish my work within the morning, so I took my harddisk and went outside to look for public computers.
Since my file is copyrighted and private, I was afraid that my PS files we're copied over the network and viewed after I left the computer shop.
Is there any options or plugins that we can use, to set and open the PS file in the photoshop program with password protection [or encryption]?
So we can, atleast, have confidence when bringing these files anywhere...
if I open a drawing with DocumentManager.Open("drawing.dwg", false) and it is already open (or the user has no rights to write to it), the drawing is opened in READONLY mode without warning.
Is there way to check if DocumentManager.Open("drawing.dwg", false) will open the drawing normal or READONLY?
How do I get my Sheet Set Manager to open up each time I open a CAD drawing? I turned it off and can't remember how to turn it back on. I use command SSautoopen, set to 1 but doesn't alway work. Sometimes if I close AutoCad and reopen it I can got to drop down menu and click on .dst extension and it will open but if I close out of it it won't open again unless I restart AutoCAD. I thought I used a command from the Express Tool menu but can't find it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI downloaded multi-batch as someone here said they like it for batch plotting. Once installed, however, it has changed a setting in AutoCAD. I can no longer open more than one drawing at a time. If I have a drawing open and try to open another drawing it asks me if I want to save the current open drawing.
I can not close a drawing either without exiting AutoCAD or trying to open another drawing. I un-installed multi-batch but it did not fix the problem.

Once I have the dwg open how do I get to the database?

I just want to know if it is possible to protect certain "Layers" thru password or by any other means so that nobody else can modify the layer properties. How?

Originally was using Vs10 when most of my discs would only get to 58% and go no further, threw away many discs thinking they were the problem. Have now upgraded to VS11.

After some fooling around with LR4, I went out and bought Martin Evenings PSLR4 'book', did some read and started looking for a photo to play with...
I discovered that all of the photos on my usb hard drive were either write protected or the image type was not supported-they're all .jpg. I had done some Copyright stuff on a few photos the day before...fooled around with import and export and some other exploring.
I use CS PS6, but installed PS Elements & Premiere Elements for a friend. Now I have a whole raft of fonts that I don't want, & don't need, Arabic, Korean, Hebrew and who knows what else. I can't delete them, "Protected system files" the warning says. And there are others, like ADMUI2LG Regular, are those needed for functionality? No Koreans or Arabs are ever going to use this machine, unless it's stolen perhaps, and I'm not being racist, I just want to cut the cr*p. If I use File Assassin to delete them will CS 6 stop working? Or will Big Brother System just recreate them?
