AutoCad :: Setting For Overwriting All Colors?
Jun 2, 2012Is there a setting that you can change in AutoCAD that will allow you to change all colors in a x-ref file, even if the "By Layer" color has been changed in the x-ref?

AutoCad 2D :: Overwriting Dimension's Text?
Nov 25, 2013I need to overwrite the measurement of quite a lot of dimensions. I do this by double clicking on a dimension and entering properties and writing the text there. However, this takes forever and I need greater efficiency.

Aug 8, 2013With Autocad 2013 we have found an unconsistant problem with overwriting PDF files with same name. This only happens with publish command (ie, can just plot 1 layout to pdf and overwrite no problem). The funny thing is, it doesn't happen all the time - just 50% of the files (and yes, the file is not in use when attempting to overwrite).
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Overwriting Points Importing Fieldbook
Jan 4, 2013We're moving [slowly, painfully] from LDD to Civil 2012. When importing a survey fieldbook in LDD, my method has always been to "clean up" the fieldbook during the import. Rather than search through the fieldbook text file manually, I'll let the import process find the duplicate, overwritten points, or errant linecodes, and then exclamate them or change them in the fieldbook and, if necessary, reimport the fieldbook. Figures and breaklines use the initial coordinate, for instance, so sometimes a reimport is (was) necessary.
So our survey crews "overwrite" points in the field for bad rod heights, angles, descriptions, etc... During the LDD import process that point number is flagged and I am given the option to overwrite/average/etc.... In Civil 3D I seem to be stuck with an average of the two observations, and I'm not even alerted about which point numbers come from these "multiple observations." So I've no idea without sifting through the often substantial list of point numbers which points have duplicate data connected to them.
I've combed through the import options and I just don't see what I'm looking for, which, in a phrase, is to be alerted when there are duplicate numbers in the fieldbook.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2011 - Overwriting / Modifying Control Point?
Feb 2, 2012We have been processing/adjusting our field control observations in an outside program (Star-net) and then importing the control into our C3D Database through an import event (PNEZD File). Once the control has been imported we import our field data (.fbk file) through an import event as well. The problem that we are having is once you process a .fbk that uses one of those control points it "locks" the control point, so the next day when we get another field download and the control is re-adjusted, we can't update the control points in the C3D Database.
The only way we have found to get our newly adjust control into the C3D Database is too delete all of the "import events" that use the control point and then import our new control. This is a HUGE hassle.

Mar 22, 2012My actions aren't backed up as an action file, they were just sitting comfortably in my CS5..I have installed the CS6 beta and it has taken over CS5, I am now unable to open anything in Photoshop CS5 as it goes directly into CS6.
I have lost my actions and I want them back, as well as my other settings. How do I get these back?
ALSO, the magnification zoom drop down box that was at the top of CS5 (25%, 50%, 100%, 200%) does no longer exist. Is there a way to get this back? I use to use this frequently!

View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Overwriting File In An Action
Apr 27, 2004I made an action that saves a JPEG using Save for Web and it overwrites the existing file. Unfortunately when I run the action or use it in a batch it asks me if I want to replace the existing file.
How do I make it overwrite the existing file?
Lightroom :: Overwriting Existing Web Galleries?
Apr 1, 2013I'm finding that when I export a web gallery and overwrite an existing gallery (folder) the some contents of the previous folder remains.
I'm using LR 4.3 (on a Mac) and exporting using the Turning Gate web gallery.
I choose to export a gallery that overwrites an existing gallery folder which contains folders of images labeled Photos and Thumbnails (the folders have contents). The newly exported gallery does not include any images (I choose use selected photos but have none selected). LR asks me if I want to overwrite the existing folder and I click OK.
When the new folder is opened the Photos and Thumbnails folders have the images from the previous gallery. Why would this happen if I choose to overwrite the existing folder? In other programs overwriting a folder means the whole content is being replaced, not just certain things.
In the past I've also discovered that images from previous exported galleries will remain in a folder in the above scenario even if I export a different selection from the gallery. Should I report this as a bug with LR, or is exporting like this a (mis)function of the gallery?
Photoshop :: Overwriting PSD Files Causes Them To Be Invisible In Finder
Mar 16, 2012OS X - 10.6.8
Photoshop CS5.1 (From CS5.5 Suite) AND Photoshop CS5
When we open a PSD file, then save the file overwriting the previous version, the file becomes invisible. I can use Terminal to set the file to visible, but when we save it again it becomes invisible again. We were initially working on a network, but it also happens when we try to save it to the desktop. When the files are saved under a new name, or in a new location, they are visible, it's only when overwriting. We have 14 Macs working on the same network, but it's only happening on one. We tested it with the same files on another Mac overwriting on the network, and it worked fine. Files that are overwritten and become invisible are then invisible to every computer, not just the one causing the issue.
This is happening with both CS5.1 and CS5.
The only work around we've found is to either individually set the files to visible, or set all files to visible. We can't leave all files set to visible because several people work on each computer every day, and one of them is bound to start deleting every file that they don't know what it is...
Photoshop :: Save For Web Not Overwriting Original Files In CS6
Aug 22, 2012It doesn't always happen but when I use save for web to save an image it goes through all the motions as normal but when I go to view the image, I find that it hasn't overwritten the original file. It has happened to other people in the studio too so it might be something to do with our setup?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMaya Animation :: How To Prevent Blend Shapes From Overwriting Each Other
Sep 15, 2011I have a rigged human character with many corrective blend shapes, which sometimes overwrite each other. For example, the corrective blend shape on the finger, when activated, "un-does" the corrective blend shape on the elbow, when both the finger and the elbow are bent.
I have tried the input editor, and can change which blend shapes overwrite what other blend shapes, but they still overwrite each other.
My next step is to try and paint the areas which the blend shape affects (stop the finger blend shape from being applied to the elbow). However, when accessing the "Paint Blend Shape Weights" tool, most of the target blends do not appear in the list. Two target blends do appear, but the two which appear are seemingly random and have nothing that sets them apart from the other blend shapes which do not appear.
When creating new blend shapes from the same base mesh, the new blend shapes also do not not appear in the target blend list.
When attempting to duplicate the problem (with several cubes), the issue is not present.
How to prevent the blend shapes from overwriting each other, or how to fix the issue with the targets not appearing in the paint blend shape weights list? Attached is a screen grab of some of my blend shapes visible in the blend shape editor on the right, and them not being present in the paint blend shapes weights list on the left.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Setting Up Default Setting For Lab Environment
Sep 4, 2012Best practices for setting up systems in a lab environment. We have a lab enviroment of about 200 systems that access AutoCad, Inventor, Mechanical and others.
We need to have a customized interface come up when Autocad is opened by students.I have read that you can do this with profiles and workspaces and also with loading a acad.lsp file.
In the past we have just copied the Windows admin profile used to customize AutoCad to the default profile. In AutoCad 2013 that does not seem to grab everything. It doesn't seem to be the best way to do what we need.
We will also be moving to Windows 7 soon which will also cause an issue.I want to find the best way to do this with out having to deal with the Windows profile.
Photoshop :: Batch Processing - New Files Created Inside Action Are Overwriting Each Other?
Sep 8, 2013I have 100's of flat images that I have to chop up into 3 parts and save as individual pieces to then load into a separate piece of software.
My problem is that when I start the batch, the 3 new images it creates for each image are simply overwriting each other when saving.
The options for serial numbers etc in the destination field of batch seems to only work for the original file opened, not the 3 new images the action creates/saves.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Layer Colors To New Set Of Colors?
May 8, 2012We are working with a company that will be sending us DWG files. They do not use the same layer colors as us and I am trying to find a lisp that would allow me to set up a table with the layer names and the color I want them to be so that I can quickly change all the layers to our companys color standards.
Example:
Layer 1 = Color 1
Layer 2 = Color 15
Layer 3 = Color 10
Etc.
I don't know a lot about lisp but I figure if I could find a lisp that did this I could plug in my layer/color assignments and it would work.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Colors 1-9 Appear As White - Colors 10-22 Are Wrong?
Dec 7, 2013You can see in the attached screen cap that colors 1-9 appear as white on my screen and that colors 10-22 are not correct either. This is only occuring in one specific drawing. Is there a preference that I switched somewhere that would make this happen? I have double checked that everything is ByLayer or ByColor that I can think of. If I insert this color chart into other drawings it looks fine. using C3D 2012.
I would just restart my drawing, however it is the new company template file that I have invested many hours into and would really like to be able to keep working with it and not start over. Or is there a good way to import and overwrite all the Prospector settings into a blank drawing?

Photoshop :: CS5 Paint Bucket Colors Do Not Match Selected Color Picker Colors
Jun 28, 2012I recently installed CS5 on my laptop after first removing it from my previous machine.All licences were validated so no problems there.Now when using paint bucket in Photoshop, the colors that I select in the color picker are not the colors that result when I use the paint bucket.
If I create a new black canvas then the colors selected in color picker work with paint bucket.But if I attempt to recolor the background in an existing image that I import into Photoshop, I get the mismatch with colors when I use paint bucket. My method for selecting colors is the same in each case, I select 'set foreground color' and set the color using html values entry at the bottom of the panel.
CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Default Fill And Outline Colors Automatically Set To Last Colors Used
Apr 3, 2012CDX5: Whatever color I select for fill or outline is now set as the default color for fills and outlines without expressly setting it as such. Until now when I left or right click a color with nothing selected it allowed me to set it as a default fill or outline color for graphics, artistic text, or paragraph text. It does not do that now.
Is this a "feature" that's been added that I somehow enabled? In any event, how do I turn it off?
Photoshop :: Colors In Print Preview Not Matching Colors In Soft Proofing
Jul 7, 2013Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. See attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.

View 7 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Setting The ActiveStandardStyle
Oct 6, 2011A bit of a strange one. I have a userform for people to configure a new drawing. One of the options they have is to select the Active Standard from a choice of the two company standards.
The template drawing contains both of the standards as does the styles library but the company ISO standard is the default. If the user selects the company ANSI standard the active standard appears correct in document settings but it produces dimensions like its still stuck on the ISO default as the template is saved. Looking in the styles library i can see the standard says ANSI but the Available Styles and Object defaults read as if they are the ISO standard.
First question, am i setting the active standard correctly?
Dim odoc2 As Inventor.DrawingDocument
Set odoc2 = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
'Get reference to active standard object
Dim oActive As DrawingStandardStyle
Set oActive = odoc2.StylesManager.ActiveStandardStyle
oActive.Name = ComboBox1.Value
AutoCad :: Setting Scale / Ratio?

THIS DRAFT is most certainly NOT TO SCALE.
As usual, i am NOT sure i am asking the right question.
I am trying to use the smallest of the squares in GRID to equal "X" amount of inches so the entire drawing will fit. I do NOT need to use grid if it there is an easier way. No contractor...I am the only one using this and its just to make my initial materials list and get a picture of how things will go....
