why I can't do the NWCOUT command to export my drawing for Navis. I have AutoCAD 2014. I have another computer that also has 2014 and can run the command with no problem. So I have to take the file to the other computer to run the command.
View 9 RepliesAfter a bit of research it looks like there will not be a plug-in for navis in revit 2013, but does have a better clash detection built-in and that navis 2013 will open revit files.
But my question is I would like to continue to use navis manage 2012, is there a way to export revit 2013 to navis manage 2012?
Does the command still exist to export a drawing to the 3DS file type? I remember doing it in 2007, but do not remember the command and can not find it in the help files.

I dont have acad map, I have C3D. usually the command will work if I can type it in on the command line.
The directions say:
Click- Create multiple classes based on a drawing property on the feature class tab of the Export Dialog Box.
If someone would click that and then check the command line
I am attempting to create a export command for our surveyors that deletes all there point layers and seal layer, then audits and saves the file before opening the etransmit command.

I am running into an interesting problem with the Inventor Export command. When I use the Export command to create a PDF print from an .idw, most of the dimensions are shown with a degree of grayscale. However, when I use the print command and the "Cute" PDF plotter, the dimensions are not grayscale.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to have users plot to DWF from paper space so they cancustomize all the layers colors etc, on that specific paper space tab. I then am mixing this with FDO data generated out of Model space. Unfortunately, when using the EXPORTLAYOUT command, the data is coped into Model space but seems to retain it's paper space coordinates. I had hoped this function would behave like CHSPACE and copy everything from paper to model space in the same scale.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the hatch command on a drawing. Everything seems to work fine, but when I hit enter after having used the hatch command, selected pick points etc. nothing happens on the drawing. There are no error messages.
I can use hatch without problems on other drawings so I suspect it has something to do with the drawing or I've overlooked a setting or two.
The case is I want move like a object like a screw out or in in the some assembly so to fit the place where it should go , I hope the screw could be an whole object instead of multible lines. The benefit is just to make the modification easier.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've finished drawing my ground floor and now I need to draw my second floor. I read in a tutorial that the best way to do this is using the Xref command to know where is the walls, bathrooms and etc.

After that I need to have a drawing with my second floor walls in dashed thin lines over my first floor. How can it be done?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to synchronize view in two open drawings in autocad.
If I change view or zoom or scroll mouse center button in one drawing, the second drawing needs to be updated in the same view simultaneously with view changed event in C# .
Now, I have lisp code to do the same manually. What the code does is that, when I enter command "V" in drawing-1
it will store viewsize and viewctr variable in a text file. when I enter command "VV" in drawing-2
it will read the viewsize and viewctr variable from the text file and execute in the command line. I tried the following code, It is not working.
This is my C# code
public class SimultaneousViewChange : IExtensionApplication
{
Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
public void Initialize()
{
doc.ViewChanged += doc_ViewChanged;
[code]...
This is my lisp code.

When I first created my surface model, any point I moved would snap back to its original position like a rubber band. I had to do some edits so I unlocked this by .... Survey Tab>My survey database>Survey Points>Points, and then picked "Unlock In Drawing". This command unlocked All points in the drawing so I could edit them.
Now that I am done with my edits, how do I reverse this command globally, so as to get ALL points locked again (so they snap back to their original position like a rubber band if moved, like before) ?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI do a lot of estimating and I do my take-offs from the drawings that I get from Isqft. Problem is when you print from Isqft you can't adjust the paper size even though it may be a D size you always print to a E size. So I decided to save the pdfs and insert them into a drawing. Scale doesn't matter here since all I'm doing is getting device counts and making sure device placements are correct. After I insert the pdf in model space and set up my paper space to the size I want I go to plot but the software crashes and shuts down. I've printed pdf's from AutoCAD but never had this problem before.

Example 1: I would like to draw a bunch of seried resistors, so I made a bunch of rectangles and draw a wire across them. But there are wire crossing through each one of them, how do I remove/erase that part in between each of the resistor? The line is made by using command: LINE
Example 2: Drawing some polygon and random shapes. Simplest example, drawing a half circle, so I draw a circle and want to remove the other half, how do I do it?
Yes, I know in example 1 I can do one object first then copy paste... But that is not what I am asking. I am seeking the command how to remove the lines or object in between.

View 1 Replies View RelatedRun TIME command and then take the resulting text and save it to a file.
Ideally, the text file should be named based on the drawing name. I know there's ways to write text to a file but I haven't had any luck taking the output of a command and exporting it.
I'm trying to hatch floor patterns in suits. I draw a pline aroudn perimeter. There are a couple of problems.
First, when I do a hatch by selecting the pline ("object"), it doesn't detect islands, such as our room tag. This is likely because the hatch is over an xref (the suite is an xref, room tag and pline are not), and hatches don't seem to like xrefs.
Next option is to hatch by "pick points". When I do that, and select a point on the floor of the suite, all of a sudden an old xref or xclip appears in 2 locations, and the hatch boundary takes the lines from that new xref into consideration. The crazy thing is that this xref does not exist in any form in the drawing. I have purged/audited the drawing, and the drawing no longer even exists in our computer.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using the ALIGN command to overlay two groups of blocks, I'm then using some VBA code to export the coordinates of the blocks to an excel sheet to make comparisons.
The issue I'm having is when I use the ALIGN command the coordinates exported are different to those in the drawing (but only for those moved using the ALIGN command).
I don't get this issue when I use the move, rotate and mirror commands, only ALIGN. What may be causing this?
When I use the "Plot" command the rectangular drawing on the right side that is normally hatched to indicate the area to be plotted appears as being blank. I have been using the "Windows" option to define the extent of the plot. When the "Preview" command is used the plot appears as a blank screen.
I have tried various attempts to make this hatched drawing reappear but without success. I know that this needs to be present before I can successfully plot the drawing.
An example is when I'm drawing a box, line etc and attempt to type "@5,-5", AutoCAD somehow jumps to a window on the side and if I don't notice will restore the window I'm working in and not complete the command I typed ("@5,-5" in this case). If I do notice in time, then I have to pres ESC about 3-4 times, which will then have me back on the command line with the text "@5,-" already typed (as if that was were I paused while typing??). The attached picture shows the dialog box on the top left, and the command line as if I've only typed "@", when after pressing ESC as mentioned the full "@5,-" text becomes visible on the command line?
Also, as a note: I've already ruled out that I'm pressing other keys that could possibly cause this...
I'm running AutoCAD (Mechanical) 2011
I have problem with 3 users from about 75. When using the publish command inAutocad 2010 (1 user) and Civil 3d 2010 (2 users) a temporary copy of the drawing is opened while the particular layout is being published but on completion this temporary copy of the drawing is not being closed. This is leading to problems when a user has lets say 5 drawings open that require publishing. When finished the user has 2 copies of each drawing open and sometimes my select the wrong drawing when making further changes.
I have tried a repair on Autcad but that did not work.
I am trying to work a routine that will draw tangents with or without curve in a profile by calling the command in the Toolbar icon to "Draw Tangents" button that is on the Profile Layout Tools toolbar.
