I am working on AutoCAD 2014 how ever the majority of CAD uses in the office use LT2010
I am finding that if I amend a template the 2010 users cant open them is there a better way around this than creating a dwg and them using a LT machine to save the dwt?
I have recently changed computers, I am apart of a Flexi license system. Now my problem is when i go into Application options and change where to open my templates from it does not save when i quit Inventor. I have also notcied small things like the reverse cusor button i always click but everytime i get out of Inventor it defaults.
(Pictures: One is the custom templates i would like to use. I am selecting them in Application Options/ Templates than applying and closing. Then when i am fnished with Inventor for the day and shut down and the next day when i come back it defaults back to the default templates)

I had my automatic save set up for every 10 minutes but files were not being saved regularly. I deleted files from the Temp folder thinking it was full and now there are no .sv$ saving at all. How can I make drawings save automatically every 10 minutes?
we have just upgraded from Inv 2011 to 2013. I am trying to create the drawing templates in 2013 by using the blank 2013 template and then copying our border from 2011 onto it. This works a treat apart from 1 thing.
The i properties do not get copied over as well so the sheet is blank from drawing number, title and the custom properties etc.
I try to move all of the AutoCAD templates and configuration files to Sharepoint.I added the path to a common ACAD.LSP to the AutoCAD - support paths.The problem is:
AutoCAD does not find the folder.
Only after I open a Share point folder in explorer and restart AutoCAD, it will have access to the ACAD.LSP and everything is fine. It does't matter which Share point Folder/Space I open.
how to import a large number of .eps files that are templates into corel draw x3 so that when I click create new from template, these files come up in the list?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter the last couple updates for Coreldraw X6 (now running at v 16.4.0.1280) my version of Draw has been crashing when-ever I go to open any of our custom templates. The templates are rather complicated, and we've been using them for years... probably since Coreldraw 7 or so, and they've gracefully worked with every version of Corel up until now.
Each model year we create a new version of the template with the new model features and file the old ones away, which also ensure that the version of the template is not too old... ie, not still trying to work with CD7 files in CDX6.
I tried doing a workspace restore (F8 at start) and that would allow me to open the template through the File -> New From Template menu the first time, but once I had my workspace set-up again, the next template would crash Coreldraw.
Opening a template via the standard File->Open menu does not crash Coreldraw.
I've now figured out that if I close the Object Manager before opening a template Coreldraw does not crash.
There was also a similar problem with importing some components that we had created as separate files, and with the same result... if the Object Manager is closed the files import alright.
I understand that there may now be "bad objects" in the file that upset the import feature, but I also don't think I can mine my way through 1940 objects (29436 points) in each template to find the issue.
Deleting files and saving files brings up an error message. Files can't be deleted from lightroom which makes editing a nightmare. Also Saving Files (raw of jpeg), brings up an error message everytime.

When I save parts in the library on my harddrive the file does not show subsequently. But if I try to re-save it, I get the statement that the file already exist.
I cannot find the file anywhere, not even with the windows search function. The file is missing, but somehow present below the surface.
Besides this did Inventor create several versions of my previous parts (0001, 0002, 0003... etc.)
I find autocad2013 very very slow saving, especialley with larger files. The same files save a lot faster in 2012.

I'm downloading .STEP files from the internet, opening them in inventor, then saving them as .dwg files that I can use in my 3D autocad drawings. I am using AutoCAD 2012 and I am running into some issues when I try to insert the objects.
So, I open up a new AutoCAD 2012 drawing and begin inserting. I can insert the first object just fine, any of downloaded files. It's the second part that is the issue. I will get one of two issues when trying to insert this second object. When inserting, it will either show the previous part that I inserted or not show anything at all.
I don't know if it's a bug, an issue with my set-up, or if I'm doing something funky when converting the .STEP files.
So we have inherited files from another company and there are some files which have begun crashing once the save command is initiated. Typically, the file seems to be saving for about 5-10 minutes, and then it gives a "FATAL ERROR: Cannot write to undo file (probably disk full)" alert. This obviously crashes the application without saving the file. The files that crash are the sheet files into which we have multiple xrefs which are overlays, not attachments. There are 4 xrefs in these files. I don't see why this would be a reason for the application crashing, but it's all I can think of that may be the problem.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo we have an HP T1100 plotter and we want all the .pc3 files on the server. I go to the plotter in my devices and printers from the start menu and I add in all my custom paper sizes. Then I create a .pc3 file that points to a system printer on my machine for that plotter. I then move the .pc3 file to the server. Next thing I do is go to .pc3 file on the server and filter out all the unneeded papers sizes (arch, jis, iso, etc.) so all that shows up in the plot dialog box are the custom sizes I created. I then re-path autocad to the server in my options. All is fine so far, everything plots fine.
Now I go to another machine and point autocad to use the folders on the server for the plotters. I go to plot and the .pc3 files are there but when I pick the paper size drop down selection, all the arch, jis, iso sheets, etc... that I filtered out are now there. Well, I can go into the .pc3 file on his machine, re-filter out all those unneeded paper sizes and all is well, but then I come over to my machine and all the unneeded paper sizes are there again. It goes back and forth. I save on one machine and then the other one is messed up.
I cannot get the unfiltered papersizes to stay that way on the .pc3 file thats on the server. Why is this? I know I have the .pc3 file pointed to a system printer on my machine but we have the same printer on each machine with the same drivers. We could just put the plotter on the server so there is no system printer but that is not an option right now.
I have a folder with a couple of files that i need to save a copy as STEP format, right now they are in CATIA, is it possible to save them all at once? or I will have to open one by one and save it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn testing my latest automation project, I've found that I can't save copies of a part multiple times (after deleteing the files off the disk) unless I close out of the top level assembly document, and reopen it. I used Process Monitor and determined that Inventor is trying to save to an existing file instead of creating a new file.
Inventor 2013 SP 1.1
When opening a step file and trying to save it, it keeps trying to save it in the 'My Documents/inventor' folder. Even if i select save as and pick a specific folder elsewhere it only saves the top assembly in that location and all sub assemblies and parts are then saved in the My Documents/Inventor folder.
Additional info:
I am operating Autodesk inventor pro 2013.
My project is set to a folder C:inventor workspace
And the folder i am trying to save into is in that folder
Recently we had a user pose the inquiry regarding lost files from users when trying to save files to the network from the windows 7 computers. They would look and act like they were being saved to the mapped drive from the network but when they returned the next morning the work was gone.
<Verified environment and settings were all within specifications and supported>
The goal of this project is to take a base part file, save new copies as needed, then modify the copies. They're rings for storage tanks that share the same tank diameter but differ in height and thickness. I have a SaveAsCopy rule in my template ring part that I run externally from my main assembly after passing down the new file names to the part rule. Since I'm testing a lot, I'm always deleting the parts from the assembly, then clearing out the new copies from my folder and running the rule again. Eventually after 1-5 times inventor starts giving me an error.
The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))
The More Info Tab:
System.ArgumentException: The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG)) at System.RuntimeType.ForwardCallToInvokeMember(String memberName, BindingFlags flags, Object target, Int32[] aWrapperTypes, MessageData& msgData) at Inventor.Document.SaveAs(String FileName, Boolean SaveCopyAs) at LmiRuleScript.Main() at Autodesk.iLogic.Exec.AppDomExec.ExecRuleInAssembly(Assembly assem) at iLogic.RuleEvalContainer.ExecRuleEval(String execRule)
The two other posts on here that deal with that error say it involves enumerating an array that is being changed and looking for an entry that is gone. I have a feeling it has to do with a left over variable (but this is all in iLogic rules so they get cleared at the end of the rule?), temporary files or remnant file references. It works again if I close the assembly and open it back up. Inventor 2013 SP 1.1

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got cs6. Am finding that when I save PSD files as pdf they lose some elements, and type turns white, some of it with faint outlines.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed CS6 on a new computer, i7 and plenty of everything. Also has windows 8, yuck. On my previous computer running a different ps but the same Lr version, I had no issues. But saving images is a nightmare. I shoot in raw, so my files are large. From within Lr, to bring a photo in tiff format over to ps, edit, save, it will take minutes PER photo. Yet bringing the same raw image into ps via bridge, it saves fine...still a bit slow, but not even close to the lag. Same issue whether it is psd or tiff.
There is no software on my computer other than cs6 and lr4.2, no antivirus, nothing except the other garbage that comes with win 8. I think that because I can't find anything on this issue, it must be due to win 8 as the OS and it is causing a disconnect between Lr and ps.
