AutoCad :: Unable To Change Color Of Layer In Drawing File

Jan 15, 2013

I am not able to change the color of a layer in one of my drawing files. When I make a new layer in the drawing file it is the same color as the layer above it (as it should be) but I am unable to change the color in the new layer either.

I can change colors in other drawing files on this computer. The color of a layer can be changed if I open the drawing file on another computer.

If the drawing is "save as" to a new file name and the new drawing is opened, it still will not change the color of a layer.

If the drawing is "save as" on the computer that will allow the color to be change and opened on this computer it will not allow the color of the layer to be changed.

GIMP :: Unable To Change Text Layer Color

Jun 16, 2011

I have created my own graphics from scratch with GIMP, but the resolution to this issue is eluding me.

I imported a GIF map and want to add red labels. I have no problem adding the labels, but I cannot seem to get the text colored red. Before I create the text layer, the text tool shows the color is red, but it still creates it black. All of the suggestions I've seen (yes, I've read the fine manual) reference the same things, including dragging the color from the foreground color (which I've also changed to red). Nothing I've tried seems to work. I've even saved the image as an XCF, but I have the same problem.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 - ILogic Code To Change Drawing Layer Color

Aug 27, 2011

How to change the color of layer that will be used within a drawing files for special purposes.

Ideally the code will make the color Red, but change to Black prior to printing.

The "logic" behind the code currently is to differentiate a layer called "Burn" to a highly visible color for the purpose of review by others then, prior to printing, change the color to Black.  The firm I'm currently working for uses gray-scale B sided printers only.  The firm currently uses Blue for dimension and extension lines so to produce drawings that portray both type of objects "lightly".

AutoCad :: File Not Valid / Unable To Recover Drawing File

Nov 22, 2012

We have three old drawings (saved in the year 2009) that we are trying to open with AutoCAD 2013 and we keep getting the message "Drawing File is not valid".

I have done the following:

Files do have a file size. Sometimes, files have 0 KB size, but not these ones.

We tried to open the files using AutoCAD 2013, AutoCAD Architecture 2012 and DWG TrueView (downloaded today!) and in all instances we get the same message.

We tried recovering and the message is "unable to recover the drawing file"

We tried inserting as a block and, in the command line we get "...was created by an incompatible version of AutoCAD *Invalid*" Again, the file is genuinely older than our current AutoCAD.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Lines / Section Views - Unable To Change From Layer 0

Jul 15, 2012

I created sample lines and section views for my road projects. I set all line works to appropriate layers except for "Segment and Points". Cannot change from layer "0".

I right click the existing grade on my section views, click "edit section style", click "display", then change the layer of Segments and points and click "OK", "apply".

Go back to my drawing, verify the layer but  still layer "0". I tried so many times, read the manual, call friends but no luck. I am tempted to "explode" my drawing.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Unable To Change Color Of XREF Layers

Feb 11, 2011

I am referencing a survey file in my site plan.  Both were created using Civil 3D.  I want to change the color of all of the reference files' layers to 250, so I selected them all in the layer properties manager and did so.

However, some layers are not changing colors.  One layer is red in the reference file, but comes through on the site plan as magenta.  Some Civil3D structures are also refusing to change colors.

I selected all of the objects in the reference file and made sure their colors were "by layer," but it did not completely fix the problem.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Layer Color Does Not Change On First Try

Aug 12, 2005

layer manager not keeping your color selection the first time when you attempt to change the color of a layer? I have not repeated the experience enough to know the particular situation under which this happens but the result is the same. I open layer manager, click the color swatch to bring up the color selector and select a color, select ok and ok. When I look at the layers color it did not change. It seems to happen most on newly created layers.

Illustrator :: Change Layer Selection Color From Black To Color?

Jan 8, 2014

Somehow I've turned off the color selection so that I don't have a color when I select a part of a drawing on a layer. The drawing area stays black whether I have selected it or not and I don't know how to turn back on the color.
 
how I can turn on the color again so that when I select a line it changes from black to red or magenta or whatever?

AutoCad :: Pspace Layer Color Not Changing In Drawing?

Aug 16, 2012

I have a file with an x-ref. The x-ref drawing colours are changed and the objects colours are set to bylayer. I am trying to make a point of my drawing darker than the rest and the other areas just faded grey. I have colours 211-217 set to print at a darker colour and different line weights. For some reason though, even though I have some buildings in my drawing set to 214, it is still coming out cyan in my current drawing.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Unable To Reference Vaulted File In Drawing

Oct 15, 2012

We are using Autocad Civil 3D 2010 and are also using the 2010 Vault.

We are having problems with one project in Civil 3D (project in Vault). We are trying to create a surface reference and are getting the error: "Drawing is already attached to project X."

Note: This drawing is not vaulted, only the cross section surface that has the final grade surface in it is vaulted.

When we test the same process with a new document we are able to reference the surface fine and the command shows: _AeccCreateSurfaceReference which works properly.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Library Of Drawings To Color By Layer?

Jan 24, 2012

I have a library that has a primary folder with 11 subfolders. If the LISP can go through all the subfolders, that would be great. But, if it cannot, I can work with going into each subfolder and running the routine. There are over 12,000 files and I don't have the time to open each one and change the color.

Here's what I need the LISP to do:

open the drawing

select everything

change the color to "bylayer"

save

close

open next drawing in folder and repeat

Once it gets to the end of the folder it can stop.

GIMP :: Unable To Make Font Larger / Change Color

How to use a photo behind cut out text and everything was going fine until I tried to add text and change the color. The text is invisible even though I changed the color to white and the box resized itself really small and I can't see anything even though I set it to 150 px.

Try to unchecking the 'dynamic text' button but I don't see this button anywhere in my text tab.

I have never been able to successfully use GIMP for anything because of this problem with adding text. I have had 2 versions, Windows and Linux. Right now I am using it with Pangolin.

Illustrator :: Unable To Reduce Type Size And Change Color?

Feb 8, 2013

I have a task I need to perform often. I create charts that have descriptive texts below bars. There are two lines of text... a company name, then data on the second line. The text is at a slant, so each bar has its own separate text (i.e., I can't create it as one continues piece of text... but the text below each bar —the two lines— are connected). I want the first line of text to be 8 points and 100% black. The second line of text is to be 7 points and 50% black. So let's say the text is 8 pt Arial. I highlight the second line and run the action on it to reduce it down to 7 points. No problem. Then I run a second action (ideally, I'd like to combine actions, but I can't as you'll see in a moment...) which turns that second line to 50% black. BUT... it turns BOTH lines to gray... not just the line I have highlighted. How can I stop it from doing this? It seems like if I have only certain text highlighted, it should only apply changes to that particulat text! Not ALL of it.
 
I'd like to combine both actions so that all I have to do is highlight the second line and run both actions. But I can't do that at the moment
 
I'll attach some photos that will hopefully make this make more sense.
 
I'm using CS6 on a Mac. The charts are initially generated online, if that makes a difference.
