I am working a lot with layers and since i am also working with sheet sets, it would be very nice to be able to freeze/unfreeze layers for the whole sheet set. Right now i need to freeze / unfreeze layers separately for each page which takes me a quite long time.
I just got a new Imac for my workspace and I am running AutocadLT 2006 on the windows virtual machine. When I open files from my shared network they are coming up without any toolbars???What can I do to fix this.
We are moving from 2006 AutoCAD Map to 2013 Map 3D. When I do an overlay of files in 2013 Map 3D which was (X-REF) in 2006 the files don’t align, some do some don’t. I didn’t have that problem in 2006 or any other software. I have tried adding a coordinate system to the file to see if it mattered but it didnt unless I'm doing it wrong. I have just started working with 2013 Map 3D,
Is there a way to connect Map 3D 2006 to an ArcIMS database, and view the data as a raster image overlay? This would be a very useful capability, but although I've come across ways of connecting directly to the ArcSDE server, I can't find any way of viewing data from ArcIMS.
My system crashed and it apparetnly effected AutoCAD 2006 LT. All my toolbars disappeared, etc. I now have it all back the way it was except for my right-click menu is all mess up.
Regardless if an object is selected or not, the Snap Menu appears, instead of the one I was used to (that included Erase, Move, Copy Selection, Scale etc. ). How can I get that back?
how to import my 2006 ctb files into 2013. I found 2006 file thru options, file, plotter path. Copied to plotter path in 2013. It showed up but did not plot correctly.
It is possible to save from AutoCAD 2012 Mechanical back to REGULAR AutoCAD 2006 Lite? I am updating files on my computer with 2012 Mechanical but have to email them back to the original computer (which only has AutoCAD Lite) to print them out. I wouldn't think it would matter if the save format is AutoCAD Mechanical 2006 as long as it is still a .dwg file, correct?
Can I take a block that is currently in my drawing and put it into a tool palette? I know how to move blocks from the Design Center to a Tool Palette but I don't know how to get my blocks into the Design Center.
Scenario: We use a number of different fasteners in our drawings but they aren't the fasteners that are currently in the Design Center under "fasteners". I am manually redrawing the same fasteners each time I start a new drawing.
3 out of every 4 times I select a hatch, to edit properties or delete, AutoCAD gives me the FATAL ERROR message and cannot continue. It is not just in one file, but in any file from what I can tell. Not just imported hatches either, AutoCAD standard hatches as well. I have reinstalled, downloaded whatever service pack I could find. This is so harmful to productivity.
after having installed Autocad 2006 LT on windows 7 64 bit, i cna't execute it because it gets the error "unhandled access violation reading 0x0000 - Exception at 621b40h".
Tried every option in Windows program execution compatibility option but no success. Obiouvsly user is administrator.
Why Autocad 2011 and Autocad 2012,Will occur on some computers,Can use the "_.layer" be executed,Some do not?Because on the Autocad 2006 can be executed.
We have a big issue where half our users can't open autocad. We have half running 2013 and half running 2006. For our 2013 users we've gone to our start menu and reset settings to default. and then just re-loaded our custom menus. How can I reset Autocad 2006 to default if I can't open Autocad?
I have been using AutoCAD 2006. Our company is switching to AutoCAD 2012 LT. I want to be able to add my custom toolbar buttons from the 2006 to the 2012 LT custom Ribbon Tabs & Panels. I have figured out how to make the custom ribbon, tab and panel. I just haven’t figured out what I need to do to get the old stuff to where I can add them to the panels.
I have custom 2006 buttons with and without flyouts.
I have been given a circa 2006 Photo frame that works very well except the system on it is set for DOS 16 bit and my more modern photos refuse to work.
I can save the photos but is errors on them. How do I save the photos in a form that this device can use?
I have a series of PNG images which have been authored from various sources, but mostly with Gimp. The images have transparent backgrounds and use partial transparency effects like drop shadow, etc. I want to display these on a bitmap layer of the TImage32 component from Graphics32.
I have dropped a TImage32 component onto my form, with the intention being to set the visibility to off, and use the TImage32 as a container for the PNG image I want to draw on the layer.
When I go to load the image at design-time, the dialog has two tabs - it allows me to load the RGB image, and the alpha channel, and I don't know how to produce these - I prouce the image by using the export to PNG function of Gimp. If I load the exported PNG into both the RGB channel and the alpha channel the resulting image doesn't have the transparent background. There obviously must be a procedure I need to follow to get Gimp to produce both the RGB and alpha channels.
It appears that the Layer Filters functionality is broken again with 2013. Unchecking the "Apply layer filter to layer toolbar" disables the function of layer filters in the tool palette.
When i click on the green line has you can see on the image. The layer toolbar wont show me the right layer, like if it's not working. But i can see the right layer inside propreties.
Is there a system variable to ajust to see my layers inside the Layer tool bar?
A drawing with hundreds of layers should be simplified for our customer by decreasing the numbers of and renaming the layers (there is yet no target file existing). In order to solve this, I generated group filters and assigned every single layer to them (all printing properties are assigned to objects). The layer groups show the desired layer structure after the transformation (still a three-digit number).
Unfortunately, the LAYTRANS dialog doesn't let me choose layers by group filters or remarks. It seems as all the work was for the birds.
Is there any way to translate my layers using filters or remarks?
I have a bunch of objects on a particular layer, and they're all different colors and linetypes and lineweights, and i want them to all take on the color / linetype / lineweight that i chose for that layer.. how do i do this?
I have a drawing where I need to open the layer manager to turn on a layer in a view port but cannot get to that particular column. As you look across the top of the layer manager I can see all the headings of each column beginning with "Name", "Status", "On" and so forth. The last column heading I see is "Description" but I need to go even further to the right to get to the column I need to be at but can't get there. There is no scroll button on the bottom of the layer manager which would allow me to do that.
I have a client experiencing a layer manager dialog box issue - the layer names are disappearing... This is not happening all the time - and in different files.
