AutoCad :: Text In Toolbar Appears As Square Symbols?

Oct 18, 2011

I've copied and pasted sections from old drawings into new ones, and it seems to have completely messed up some fundamental aspects of my AutoCad.

After I pasted I received some error message which I didn't understand. I think it said something about a "Language" problem, (Needless to say I clicked the nice big "OK" button without any thought). Now, every time I open CAD there are these square symbols where there should be text

I am running CAD from my company computer, so can't use the add/remove programmes repair trick. How I can reset all/relevant settings within CAD to get things back to normal?

I'm running the 2010 model.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text And Symbols Are In Little Pieces?

Feb 16, 2012

I am running ACAD Mech 2012.  Our LA office has ACAD LT.  Every single letter, line, symbol, etc is made up of a bunch of different pieces.  I found that the word SPARE was made up of 46 pieces!  I have attached a portion of the drawing.  I have never seen anything like this and I can't even imagine how this could be made or changed into this.

AutoCad :: Text Appears Different On Different Computers?

I am a student, when at school my drawing looks perfect. When I get home my text looks like it has been enlarged. I have checked all the sizes and have annotative turned off. I assume this has to be some setting that I have selected on my home computer but I can't find anything.

Photoshop :: Text Edit Area Appears As Inactive / Text Box Invisible

Apr 29, 2012

I'm having this strange issue with the Photoshop type tool in Photoshop CS5. It might be, although I'm not sure, a bug. The tool itself is working and lets me add text and edit. But the box that shows up when editing text (and the blinking line that shows where I am in the text) - has gone invisible. I am having this issue in only one document. - I tested the type tool on other documents, and everything was normal. I've looked up shotcuts and hotkeys to check if I've tapped a key or something, but it doesn't appear to be so.
 
Now about the document; it does have quite the amount of text layers, and a lot of text in them. I've tried resetting the type tool, and I've restarted the program.
 
When I restart the program, the tool works as it's supposed to - but after editing or adding a new text layer, the editing area is gone again! Is this a bug, or have I touched keys that do odd things?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Use Toolbar To Load Toolbar From Partial Customization Menu

Dec 19, 2013

I've tried to figure out the pattern of how the command works for inputting partial customization menu toolbar names but I'm unsuccessful.

You should be able to show and hide partial customization menu toolbars with the -toolbar command because it can hide all toolbars including my partial customization menu toolbars currently shown. I've tried the toolbar menu alias (defined in the CUI command) and the name (refer to this link to the same image embedded below) and none work.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Dimension Text And Symbols Font With ILogic

Nov 2, 2012

I was looking to change the fonts in a drawing for the Dimensions and Symbols that might have been inserted in the Dimension text entries.

This can be done manually bu editing the dimentions text after placemement, but I was ooking to set this as a default.. I cannot see where exactly this is controlled in the Styles Manager - I am only able to change the Dimension text font but the diameter symbol font is always on AIGDT.

I was therefore looking for an iLogicvb code that could do the trick, but I am not able to even change the dimension fonts... The code runs with no errors but nothing gets updated in the drawing...

Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument
oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSheet As Sheet
oSheet = oDoc.ActiveSheet

[Code]....

InventorVb.DocumentUpdate()

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text Appears Rough / Rugged In Both Model And Layout Space

Jun 25, 2012

I am having difficulty with the text in my drawings. When writing dtext or dimensions on my drawings in modelspace the text appears rough/rugged in both model space and layout space. I am using True Type (Arial) as the font. I've read older posts where people have suggested checking in Properties that the text is really laying down at 0 in the Z plane which it is. Some say using True Type is the problem, but just last week I was doing what seemed to be the same operation and I had no problems at all.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Creating Text In Model Space It Appears Both Mirrored And Rotated 90 Degrees To The Horizontal

Oct 11, 2011

When creating text in model space it appears both mirrored and rotated 90 degrees to the horizontal. However, when I create text in paper space it is fine. I have tried looking at the properties for the text but although I can find a place to rotate the text back to the horizontal it is still mirrored and therefore unreadable.

When I copy paste stuff from one document to another this also occurs.
