AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Gray Boxes Appearing On Plotted Drawings

Oct 23, 2013

I have have small gray shaded boxes showing up on drawings plotted in Civil 3D, they are never anywhere I can see in the drawing  and they never show up in the print preview. I have tried using multiple printers and still get the same thing. I think it may have something to do with viewports as they only show up inside a viewport window when plotting from paperspace and don't show up when I plot from modelspace.

AutoCad :: Single Text Box To Multiple Text Boxes?

Dec 23, 2011

I want to convert a single text box to two separate text boxes (not multiline text). Let's say after the fifth character.

For example:

And I want to change it into:

"Hello" "World"

And I will move them separately like:

"Hello" _______ "World"

or

"Hello"
_______ "World"

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Show A Dimension That Spans Across 2 Different Drawings

Feb 7, 2012

I'm trying to get everyone on the right page, but I can't find any reference to how to properly show a dimnesion that spans across 2 different drawings (with use of a matchline or on a piping isometric that is split). Would either of these examples be the correct way to show a dimension that spans 2 drawing files? Is there a different way to show a dimension that is to span 2 drawings?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Assembly Edits Don't Show Up In Part Drawings

Apr 5, 2013

What's the purpose of making modeling edits at the assembly level if those edits don't show up in a drawing of the parts? Sure, it makes the assembly look prettier and more true to the final product, but say I make a bunch of cuts, holes, etc. at the assembly level, but then I make a drawing for one of the parts that was affected... those edits don't show up on the part itself, so all those edits are of absolutely no use to me when I need to give the guys in the shop a detail drawing of how to make the part. Why I would make edits at the assembly level?

AutoCad 2D :: Cursor Text Boxes Not Displaying?

Jan 21, 2012

I'm starting a new drawing in Civil 3D 2012 and when I go to draw a line I can't see the small text boxes that show up beside the cursor that allow you to input numbers. I like to type my lengths and angles into these boxes to draw my lines as it makes it 100% accurate however the aren't showing up. Drawing lines is essentially useless because I now have to eyeball it. Is there a keyboard shortcut to get these boxes to display again?

InDesign :: RTF / Ungroup Imported Text Boxes From Parent Text Box

Apr 3, 2014

I have hundreds of diagrams in Microsoft word that need importing to Indesign. I have imported the illustration part of the diagrams via Illustrator but i now need to bring in the diagrams' text labelling.
 
The diagrams have a lot of text labels which each appear in their own text box, but if I save the .doc as an rtf and import it into InDesign, it imports all my individual textboxes into 1 large textbox which I can't seem to separate them from.
 
If I select one of my labels in Indesign and copy and paste it, it is now a separate text box - great, but InDesign won't let me select multiple text boxes within it's large text box and it just is not feasible for me to be selecting each box individually to cut and paste it.
 
Edit: Each individual text box (within the large textbox they have been imported into) appears to have been anchored on import. If I release the anchor this does what I need in the same way as cutting and pasting, but again, indesign won't let me select more than one and it would take far too long to select each box individually to release it. So I guess I'm either asking for a different import methos, or a way to select multiple textboxes that have been imported into a single text box.

AutoCad :: Add Selection Boxes Or Pick Boxes To Block?

Jun 10, 2011

Can add selection boxes or pick boxes to a block?

Here's the situation. I have a block that will be inserted showing a piece of angle iron that is used for a stiffener. We have various sizes that will need to be used. Instead of typing in the angle size each time it's inserted can I have a list of all the angle sizes and then a pick box or radial dial or something to be selected and that is what is put in the block?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Edit Multiple Text Boxes Instead Of One At Time?

Oct 7, 2013

I would like to find a way to edit multiple text boxes in inventor instead of one at a time.

For example, in autocad, when multiple text boxes are selected, any values that are different in the properties window are represented as "varies".

Is there a way to select multiple text boxes and do things such as change the text height, justification, font, etc, just as it works in autocad?

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 All Icon Text Displays As Boxes

Jan 25, 2011

The PC (running XP PRO 32bit) in question is at a middle school, so I'm sure someone was playing with settings, but I cannot find what they changed. underneath each screen icon that should say INVENTOR STUDIO, APPLICATION OPTIONS, SHEETMETAL, MODEL, etc. etc...all that shows is boxes; it's like they've either changed the language for the app to chinese (or other unsupported/unloaded in our OS) or some system font is haywire, but this only is affecting Inventor 2011 so far so I believe they changed a setting in the app.  Once I get into a menu option; the text for each tab is correctly displayed.  Where would one set the text/font for all icons in the Inventor 2011 interface?

AutoCAD 2010 :: DWG To PDF - Flattening During Printing And Black Boxes On Text

Feb 16, 2012

I have an issue when using the DWG to PDF plotter built into AutoCAD 2011.  It started when I would generate PDFs from AutoCAD and then try printing them to our office printer for a hard copy.  I kept getting the "flattening" bar popping up which caused a set of 20 drawings to take 30 mins to print.  Where other PDF generators the drawings shoot out of the printer ASAP.  And in a busy office likes mine, tying up a  printer for that long is kind of frowned upon. But they didn't solve my flattening issue.  I tweaked the "Merge Control" as most of the posts mention along with turning off "layers in PDF" as well.  My PDFs are still flattening.  All my drawings are 2D...no 3D information.

And now I've noticed after changing the "Merge Control" and "Layer Display" in my pc3 file, it is putting black boxes on text that have a background mask...not a wipeout.  I know there have been issues in the past with PDFs and wipeouts...but in my case it's the background mask function.  I've even tried using a 255,255,255 colour for my background mask colour (instead of my default "background colour") and that didn't work.  And the other weird thing is that it's not blacking out all text with background masks.  On one drawing it'll be blacked out and in the next, the exact same piece of text will be fine.  It's even only blacking out portions of lines of text.  Completely random!

Photoshop :: Text Boxes In CS4

Jan 29, 2009

I've been experiencing a problem in PhotoShop CS4 in Vista where a text box will suddenly become much larger than it needs to be. Usually the text box will keep the original width I created it at, but will become extremely tall and the bottom will extend several inches below the actual image area.

This makes editing and moving text annoyingly difficult. It seems to happen after a text layer is copied/duplicated or moved to another document.
The document I'm working with was originally a Fireworks document, but it seems to happen even with text that was originally created in PhotoShop.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Cannot Type In Mtext Boxes - UPPERCASE / Lowercase Buttons Make Text Disappear

Feb 16, 2012

Architecture 2009 running on Windows 7.  Dell Precision T5400 with a Quadro FX570 graphics card.

I have lately been having some issues with text in Architecture 2009. I first noticed that within Mtext, when you hit the "UPPERCASE" or "lowercase" buttons, the text disappears in the editor, and no changes are made.  Not the end of the world, but not handy.

Then it stopped letting me type in Mtext boxes at all. The return key seemed to work, but nothing else. Then it started converting text typed into Mtext boxes into (I think) Chinese characters. Really not handy. At this point I decided to try to reinstall. First I tried a repair, then reinstalled over the existing installation, then uninstalled completely and reinstalled from the disk.  I've also done a windows restore, though as this has slowly been falling apart, I'm not sure when I should restore back to.

I have Mtext basic functionality back, but the "UPPERCASE" and "lowercase" buttons still make the text disappear.

Not sure if it's related, but I also get a Fatal Error e06d7363h at 758bd36fh about 4 or 5 times a day.  Usually it's associated with the open command (ctrl+o), but sometimes it just happens at random.

Photoshop :: Vexing -- Text Boxes

Oct 19, 2008

Recently Photoshop CS3 started acting up (after over a year installed). Toolbars and dialog boxes won't let me type into text boxes or select from most drop-down lists. This makes it completely unusable.

The textboxes and drop-down lists "lose focus" instantly after being clicked. This occurs even if no other applications are running.

For example in the Brush toolbar, when I click to open the Brush Mode dropdown, it opens, then immediately closes before I can even release the mouse button. However the Brush Size works fine (because it isn't really a dropdown, it opens another window). The Opacity textbox won't let me type, but the slider opens under it and operates normally.

Similarly in the Text toolbar, it is impossible to select a font or font style, but I *can* select one of the standard font sizes (because that is a different type of dropdown). But I can't type a specific size into the textbox! Same type of issues in the character/paragraph pallette.

To try to resolve this, I upgraded my computer from XP SP3 to Vista SP1. (To eliminate any possible "contamination", I reformatted the C drive, installed Vista & SP1 from CD, installed anti-virus, then reinstalled Photoshop and Lightroom from scratch - and NO other applications yet).

After all that, I still have the same probem under Vista! With no other programs installed.

My computer is an HP Intel Core2 Duo, 4GB RAM, nVidia 512MB 3D graphics card. (I upgraded the RAM from 2GB and the video card both under XP to see if they helped - before doing the Vista upgrade)

No other software has ever exhibited this problem - or any strange issues.

I'm completely unable to process photos for my photography business, and at my wit's end.

Illustrator :: Text To Boxes / When Save To PDF

I'm currently using Illustrator CS4 and I'm having problems with what I assume is a corrupted file of some kind. When I'm working in Illustrator everything works and looks fine but when I save it as a PDF all my text changes to a bunch of box and rectangle outlines. I've tried opening in Photoshop and the same thing happens. Also when I preview it in Finder the same thing happens.
