AutoCAD Map 3D :: 2013 Labels Not Displaying When Plotting / Exporting

Jun 27, 2013

I've searched this Discussion Groups area on the site and have found a couple solutions. I've tried them all but I can't seem to figure out how to get ALL of my labels to display when I plot or when I export to PDF. It seems that only the POLES layer labels are having trouble showing up...

I understand scaling and it doesn't seem to be the issue. I've tried plotting under different scales, and I still get the same thing.I've attached an image showing the outcome.

On the left is the PRINT PREVIEW in AutoCAD.
On the right is the EXPORTED PDF.

I've checked in the administrator under POLE LABELS, and changed a couple things around but I can't seem to get the pole labels to show up.

AutoCad :: Plotting To PDF Versus Plotting To Printer?

Feb 26, 2013

I'm attempting to plot a drawing with a 3d shape and a title block around it. I would like for the occluded lines to not be drawn therefore I'm using the hidden visual style and set shade plot to hidden as well.

My problem arises from the quality of the plot to PDF versus the quality coming out of a printer. It is just a 8.5x11 page. The pdf comes out with horrible anti-aliasing and jagged lines, whereas the print is entirely smooth. Is there something simple I'm missing? It would be even better to find a way to make the plot to PDF come out in vector format! I know it is possible to show the layers and have them vectorized in a PDF... How is this done?

AutoCad :: Block Attributes Are Not Displaying?

Aug 16, 2013

I created a block in the way I always do.

-draw a symbol

-define an attribute & place it

-go to draw>block>make and select the object i want to be in my block and name it.

as normal once i completed this my block appeared with the attribute window popping up as expecting looking for me enter a value for my attribute.

I intended to use this block along with the measure command to reference a number of points along a poly line as equal distanced (I've done this many items before).

when using the measure command and typing in my block name, it appears at the selected distance along the polyline, but the attribute text is not visible. when you select the block, there is no attribute within it (i.e. no attribute dialogue box appears, nor is there a field in the block properties window for the attribute to be amended).

when i insert the block into the drawing using insert>block, it appears as expected with its attribute?

I have found a work around for this, but it's not ideal. I've created a temp block from my original block, using the measure command it displays correctly. i have to then explode the temp block which leaves the original block and its attribute in place.

AutoCad :: Hatch Displaying As Solid?

Jan 22, 2012

I have a hatch (that is not solid). Sometimes it displays as a solid hatch though, although if I move the hatch (even slightly) the display issue is resolved and the hatch displays properly (i.e. not solid anymore). Regen doesn't fix the display issue, only moving the hatch slightly (temporarily).

I'm not sure how far away from the origin the hatch is although it is no further than what it would normally be when it works fine (and it can't be moved closer to the origin anyway as that would screw up my models real world coordinates).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: XREF Objects Not Displaying

Sep 26, 2012

I am getting a lot of grief xrefing a C3D file into an AutoCAD drawing. A bit of background...

Fairly large development project with 270 new familiy houses. The sanitary sewer (SS) network was created using AutoCAD only. All layout drawings and xrefs were created using AutoCAD using AutoCAD templates. Then, here I am, putting the entire SS network in C3D, with its fancy labels and relevant long sections. Now I am supposed to display this C3D network in all the layout plans and get rid of the old 2D SS xref. Well, the blody thing doesn't work! If I try to xref the original C3D file, it will only display the labels. All pipes and structures and long section do not display. Yes, I checked all layers are turned on.

I tried using data shortcuts instead, bringing first the relevant part liist and styles. No luck. Again neither a single pipe nor structure is diplayed, although the prospector in the toolspace shows the network is referenced in the drawing. I am not sure if this matters, but the C3D source drawing contains a second pipe network referenced using data shortcuts which, by the way, doesn't display either when xrefing. I tried xrefing the C3D file using my C3D template and it works fine. So I guess that, somehow, the AutoCAD template used to creat the drawings is preventing some C3D objects to be displayed when xrefed.

I know I could recreate all our layout plans using my C3D template. Unfortunately, that would be a long process since we have quite a few and they're all heavily xrefed, with many layer properties overriden.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: R / W Lines In Sections Not Displaying?

Jan 25, 2013

I have R/W and Utility lines that I am trying to display in my cross-sections.  I add them as Profile Grade Points to the Sample Lines.  This works well in 4 out of 5 of my corridor drawings, however, 1 of the files does not display these lines in the cross-sections.  I already checked turned-off layers and that's not it.  When I check the individual Section View Properties, these alignments (& corresponding profiles) show up in the list, just not on the actual cross-section.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dialog Boxes Not Displaying?

Feb 27, 2012

When opening AutoCAD 2010, I get an error message "Unable to load profile...".  This happened unexplicably.  I have been using AutoCAD several months with no problems.  One annoying consequence is that dialog boxes do not display.  For example, running DIMSTYLE does not open the Dimension Style dialog box; instead, a list of options such as ANnotative, Save, and Restore appears.  How do I get back to normal?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Displaying Symbols In Offset Location

Jun 8, 2012

We have a set of "working maps" that the field crew use when they are locating infrastructure on the ground. The field maps are more schematic than accurate so that when we have a cluster of 3 or 4 valves at a junction, you can easily see which valve is on which line and there is no overlap. Unfortunately, the locations on the schematic are far from correct because they are drawn for clarity rather than accuracy.

We've gone through the process of finally locating every water valve in town based on actual location and have placed them all in our map, tied them to record drawings, added sizes, etc. It's great for locating them in the field but when you print a working map, or load them into Infrastructure Map Server, they are close together (1 to 2 feet) and become unreadable. What we really need is a way to display them in Map 3D, or Map Server with some type of offset from their original location, without altering the actual location of the insertion point. I know I can use an offset for the symbol but that would only work in some cases and in certain directions. To be able to do what I want, I would have to be able to control the offset from a central point somehow.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Displaying Object Data In The Drawing?

Dec 14, 2001

I have a AutoCAD MAP drawing with the pipe size assigned as object data to various lines in the drawing.

Is it possible to display the pipe sizes as a text entity parallel to the line? How would I go about doing this. First prize would be if the value of the text changed whenever the object data is changed.
