AutoCAD Architecture :: Maintain Coordinates At Exact Place When Moving UCS And PLAN?

Apr 19, 2013

what I can do, to maintain project world coordinates at exact place when moving UCS and PLAN.

For ex.I have this project, In witch I'm making house plan on one of those plot, to draw in comfortable position I want to rotate view with UCS.

 I type such command UCS/ OBJECT/ pick an object and ENTER, then PLAN/ CURENT and hit enter, now I have comfortable plan position to work with.

The problem of all this, is that when I redo all backwards, coordinates doesn’t correspond to previous places.

AutoCad :: UCS World Does Not Restore To Original Coordinates

Jun 18, 2012

I want to move our firm to using a UCS that aligns with the viewport.

However my hesitation has always been that World does not seem to restore to the original coordinates.

We do survey drafting and the map grid coordinates are critical and we drop in new survey data over the existing on a regular basis.

I tested it again last week but still I cannot insert new data into the same position even after restoring to World UCS. It is consistently about 1.5 units offset from the correct position.

Am I doing something wrong? Should USC World set it back the identical original coordinates such that I could confidently paste with a 0,0 base point and have geometry by in the correct position.

AutoCad :: How To Draw A Site Plan

Sep 4, 2012

I've never used AutoCAD before but I'm trying to make a site plan. I attached a picture of the property I'm trying to make a site plan of. Basically, it's a building that 59' by 92' that has a fenced in yard that is roughly a rectangle. I'd like to fit the site plan on regular 8.5"x11" sheet of paper. I know how to draw lines but don't know how to make them the right lengths. It doesn't need to be perfect with angles but I'd like to make it look nice with like a border and titles and such. I've been trying to read up on how to do it but I just get overwhelmed.

After Effects :: How To Expose World Coordinates Of A Linked Object

Dec 16, 2013

Is there a way to expose the world coordinates of a linked object like a null?
 
When you link an object to another it uses its parent space coordinates or coordinates that are relative to the parent. I really need to know the actual world space coordinates.

AutoCad :: Displaying Site Plan On IPad / IPhone

Oct 28, 2013

Regarding the use of the 360 mobile app:

I am a site planner/landscape architect in need of displaying autocad site plans on my ipad / iphone. This is possible through 360, but the limit on file size and xrefs is not allowing me to get all of my info viewable. Also, I am in need of inserting aerial imagery so that I may be able to track my location on site via GPS.

AutoCad :: Import TXT File With DWG Site Plan To Generate Contours?

Feb 21, 2012

a civil engineer sent us a .dwg file for a site survey. However, the .dwg contours are just showing up as a series of overlapping rectangles. He attached two .txt files, one for elevation point locations, the other for tree locations. Both give coordinates... i.e. :452,2718.7202,2509.7896,569.4979,GL etc. I know that the .txt file is giving locations, but I do not know how to generate plines etc. from the given coordinates in the .txt file. I downloaded ascponit.lsp, but i'm not sure if this is meant for this...

I'm using AutoCAD 2008.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Grading Plan For Solar PV Site Or Golf Course?

Feb 28, 2013

how to use Civil 3D to create a grading plan for a solar PV site or a golf course?

Here is the situation.  We have a large 100 acre site that is not flat.  We want to do minimal grading to "smooth out the surface".  So that maximum slope on the site is 10%.  The site does not have to be graded completely flat.  We are trying to work with the existing contours and terrain as much as possible.

Is there some functiion or some way for Civil 3D to "smooth out a surface"?  We want to work with the existing slopes and contours of the site and just need a grading plan that will smooth out mounds, holes, or high slope areas.

by default revit shows roof plan in the Site plan view. 

Is it possible to show site plan that one line would  represent building contour? Also is it possible to cast shadows of all the building if the first floor is selected? 

i was trying to make site plan from the fist floor, but since i gave intense topography ground is being cut and i need full topography. i am using 2013 revit.

AutoCad 3D :: Moving Objects To Absolute Coordinates?

May 19, 2013

I am still having trouble moving objects to precise coordinates. For instance, the thing I drew may be in the correct position in the x-y plane but I want to move it in the positive z direction a precise number of units. Or move it along the y axis by specifying where I want it to be not how far I want it to move.

I see...just use the tab key.

3ds Max :: Displaying Coordinates When Moving Mouse?

Nov 9, 2013

my coordinates aren't appearing in the text boxes at the bottom of the screen (see screenshot) when I move my mouse around in a viewport. They just stay blank, so when zooming out or in of a viewport, I have no sense of scale. When I select a vertex/edge/face, then the information appears as expected, but it used to show the dynamic position of the cursor in these fields. I have units set up (feet w/ fractional inches).  I'm using 3ds Max 2014.
 
After checking the online documentation, it appears as though these boxes should be displaying this information:
 
When you are simply moving the mouse in a viewport, these fields show the current cursor location in absolute world coordinates.Is there any setting that controls this, or any toggle that I'm not aware of? It's difficult to start my scene without knowing roughly where I'm clicking in 3d space.

Lightroom :: 4 / 5 - How To Lock Altitude When Moving GPS Coordinates On Map

Aug 18, 2013

I have recently imported pictures *.CR2 with *.XMP containing GPS coordinates and altitude information.
 
From my last import (LR4.1 or 4.2) I remember that I was able to drag pictures in the Map view adjusting GPS coordinates, without touching altitude information which was what I needed.
 
Today I discovered that as soon as I move an image on the map, the altitude value is automatically deleted. And this happens in LR4.3 and also in LR5.0. I understand that if you change the GPS position, the altitude changes also, but for adjustment I have to make, there are no big altitude changes therefore keeping the original value for me is good.
 
Is there a way to "lock" altitude number, in order to keep the original value, when moving photos on the map?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Moving Node To Specific Coordinates?

Mar 20, 2013

I have been using Corel for over 20 years, and have never needed support.  I do most of my work editing nodes within a drawing for creating continuous line patterns that are repeatable.  

For years I have simple "nudged" the first and last point of a complex curve to the appropriate position.  Now I want to simplify that by entering in the coordinates for the node.  

I have tried Object Coordinates, but it appears to do nothing after I change the node location, or radically change my design.  There is no documentation for it. I have searched Customize for some sort of input field to add to the toolbar with no luck.

I always have to add the information on the coordinates of the selected note to the Status Bar, so I am surprised that I can't find an option for editing the position.

AutoCad :: Converting Northing And Easting Meters Coordinates To Map Coordinates

I'm a GIS analyst trying to learn Cad. I'd like to place a single point in autocad model space at a specific Northing/Easting position. After reading several forum threads I don't think CAD allows me to change the coordinate system of model space from map coords to northing easting coords, as we can in GIS.

GIMP :: Moving Selected Area Versus Moving Selection / Moving Whole Image

Mar 22, 2012

I want to select part of an image with just one layer. Say I just flattened the image and have to move one part of. I select it with the rectangular select tool. It seems intuitive that I could then just move what I selected, but when I drag the selection, the selection itself moves without moving what is inside the selection.

If I then remember to click the move tool and try to move what's in the selection (seems to work sometimes, maybe when there's multiple layers?) the entire image moves.

The only way I can move part of the image over is if I make a selection and then cut it (ctrl X) then paste it.

How am I supposed to move part of the flattened image, is there a way I can set it to default to "When I select something, I can immediately drag that selected area around."
