AutoCAD 2010 :: Multiline Attributes Won't Hold Text Formatting After BLOCKEDIT / SAVE

Mar 20, 2012

Problem: Create a dynamic block with visibility, use a Multiline Attributes for text entry in to the block. I create multiple lines of text when editing the block in model space. Either with gripping the txt window width or use "Enter" to define multiple lines.... I proceed to edit the block slightly and when I close and save changes......All ML Attributes default to single line text. In turn i have to re-edit all my text.

Bugs like this are extremely painful. No rhyme or reason to them... Looking for a workaround other than using separate attributes for each line of text.

Dec 26, 2013

We have a bunch of dwg files. The requirement is to extract a specific list of attributes from the layers within CAD to a csv file. We are currently manually opening the dwg using AutoCAD and exporting the attributes. This has been time consuming and we need a faster process.

What options do I have to programmtically extract them?

AutoCad :: Export Attributes From File Using LIST

Jul 9, 2013

I am trying to export attributes from an autocad file using LIST and I keep running into trouble with the file cutting out data. I am wondering if there is a way to print the LIST file that AutoCAD creates to a text file so that I can get all of the data in one go instead of having to repeatedly "Press ENTER to continue:"

AutoCAD VB :: Extracting Attributes Into Text File With A Script

Sep 12, 2013

I have a requirement to extract metadata from AutoCAD files with a script. This metadata is the attributes that appear in the files Title Block in the corner. I have come up with some code that I believe can do this, but I cannot run it, since I've been developing in Visual Studio using .NET, and it appears that that .NET API can only be used to build plugins for AutoCAD.

Do I have to use VBA to access the COM? How do I even get started with VBA/COM API? It took me forever to actually find a listing for the .NET Object Model - I don't want to search for that long again to find the COM API, especially if I'm going about this in the wrong way again.

Here is the code I've written to extract the Attributes, but it's probably very wrong as well, since I have not had the opportunity to test it:

class Program {
static void Main(string[] args) {
try { using (Database db = new Database()) {

[Code] .......

AutoCad :: Attributes / ATTEXT Command And Template File?

Jun 21, 2011

I work with land surveying, and I'm a complete newbie to CAD. I use AutoCAD LT 2010, and I am having trouble getting some coordinates from a file.

I receiveda dwg file containing three adjoining lines and two ducts. Now I need to extract the coordinates (x,y) and some kind of point number/name so that I can use the data in a text file or in Excel.

I have tried the ATTEXT command, but it doesn't work. I don't even know if the template file I created is correct, because I suspect the main problem lies in the fact that the points along the line have no attributes.

how do I get the data I need? Do I have to assign attributes to the points before I can extract the coordinates? And what should the template file look like?

AutoCAD 2010 :: 2012 Crashing Whenever File Open / Save Or Save As Selected

Jun 27, 2013

I have the student version of AutoCAD 2012 on an HP laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium OS.  I originally installed AutoCAD in June of 2012.  It worked fine for 9 or 10 months but now whenever I select File/Open, File/Save, or File/Save As, AutoCAD stops responding and the spinning blue donut appears.  AutoCAD never comes back and I have to close it from Task Manager.  I uninstalled AutoCAD and reinstalled it, and the process went smoothly.  However I still have exactly the same problem with the File operations.  I apply Windows updates, but other than that have not made any changes to the software on the laptop.  AutoCAD works fine for everything except the File operations.  I am able to save with CTL/S and am able to open AutoCAD files from File Manager.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Text Attributes - File Size

Aug 4, 2009

I made what seems to be a very simple dynamic block with text attributes and a few grips attached to stretch and polar stretch actions, but the file size is about 2mb! This is huge... roughly the size of one of our firm's full floor plans. There seems to be nothing purgeable in the file, so I am wondering if this is just the size necessary for the functionality or if I am bloating this somehow.

AutoCad 2D :: Rotate Block With Attributes - Messed Attributes

Jan 23, 2012

From the attached image you can see what I'm talking about.

(left=original, middle=ROTATE, right=PROPERTIES)

When I rotate blocks using ROTATE command everything is fine, but when I rotate blocks using PROPERTIES my attributes get messed.

I need to rotate several blocks at once with PROPERTIES, because I don't have time to rotate each one separately.

The same thing happens when scaling blocks, but this was resolved using the command BSCALE in the command line.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Automatically Export Attributes From Selected Blocks To Defined Txt File

Oct 3, 2012

How to create a lisp to automatically export attributes from selected blocks to defined txt file without having to everytime confirm the file name, location and if the file shall be replaced?

Meaning is that I often export attributes to txt file for further use. It is always the same file (I just overwrite it always).

The way I do it now is selecting blocks, using ATTOUT command, then going to the desktop, selecting ATT.txt file and confirming that it is to be replaced.

Is there a way to make lisp or script that will just do all it in at once?

I found on forum such a lisp as below, but it exports all ablocks on drawing and it exports to txt file which is located in same  place as drawing and with same name as drawing. Tried to modify it but without success:

(defun cut-att ()
(load "attout")
(setq fna (strcat (getvar "dwgprefix")
(acet-filename-path-remove (acet-filename-ext-remove (getvar "dwgname")))
".txt"
))
(setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (66 . 1))))
(bns_attout fna ss)
)

Same question for ATTIN - I use attin and always same file name from same location - how to automate it with one command?

CorelDRAW X6 :: What Attributes Of EPS File Will Be Incompatible To Import Into CD

Nov 20, 2012

What attributes of an .eps file will be incompatible to import into CD x6?

I have imported several of the free vector art found in various websites as .eps without issues, until this one.  This one imports everything except the circular renditions of snow and snowballs.  Gimp and PSE will import and convert the .eps to an image as it is supposed to appear.

[URL]

I do not need these snowmen anymore, I found other candidates, and I believe I could recreate the snowballs with ovals and a meshes.  I am more concerned about being able to import .eps files in general.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Save File - Losing Original File Afterwards

Feb 12, 2013

I found this error a bit strange, my colleague it trying to save a file and this error keeps on coming out (see attachments). When we try to save it, it only saves as a temp file. When we try to open up the temp file and try to save it, it still doesn't allow us to do. Also, when we cancel the save, the original file will be gone and he will lost all of his data. Below are the specs of the computer and version of the AutoCAD.

Computer: DELL Precision T5500

OS: Windows 7 Ult

AutoCAD Version: 2011

Also, we're using ProSteel Series 3 as well. We tried saving the file using ProSteel and just AutoCAD but it didn't do the trick. I've tried some options (listed below) that might get it to work but still no luck.

1. Restart the computer.

2. Repair / Reinstall AutoCAD.

3. Give permission to the folder (read from the forum).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Disabling File Name Selection In File Save Dialog?

May 24, 2013

I'm using the file dialog snippet as the foundation for a save as dialog box for saving a new copy of my template assembly to a project folder. Is there a way to disable the ability to click on a file in the window which puts that filename in the input box? The assembly file name is standardized and pre-"calculated" by my code and its a decent hassle if you accidentally click another file because the user would either have to rewrite the file name by hand, or cancel out of the dialog box and re-navigate to the project folder.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Multithreaded File Open File Save?

Jul 8, 2013

Civil 3D 2013.One of the problems my team has is that we have a number of remote offices that all work on the same drawings. To ensure integrity of the drawings, we use a Wide Area file replication and locking service to ensure the files do not become out of sync and corrupted between offices.

AutoDesk seems to open and save files and their subordinate xrefs serially in a single thread instead of in a multi-threaded manner. Because of this there is a Huge time impact on just opening and saving files at remote sites as a result of Civil 3D having to wait for the home office file lock check on each and every file before opening the next file.

We have 100Mbit down / 20Mbit up transmission links at both sites dedicated to the file replication, with Gbit backbone in both offices.

note that the remote site has a full copy of all files in its replicated share. These local files are what Civil 3D is opening. No Files are being transferred during file open unless a remote change has just occurred (proven through replication logs).

When the drawing file is opened for editing, a file lock check is performed and Windows waits for the response to ensure it can be opened for editing before telling Civil 3D. When Civil 3D has this file open, it has a list of all the xrefs for this file. Civil 3D then seems to open each file in sequence.

This is a problem when a large latency is introduced through our 3rd party Wide area file system by a remote site file lock check.

This is not AutoDesk's fault but the compounding of the two system's operational behaviours, causing a Very long wait on file open, Save, PaperSpace operations (30 minutes for large drawings).

I would like to see a multithreaded (threadpool) file open occur against the entire list of xrefs (during save as well). Then recursively executed for all subordinate xrefs of those files until the operation is complete.

As long as a file list is maintained during the operation and updated as each file operation completes (which obviously it is) in the primary thread, this should not cause any problem. All dependancies can be opened in sequence once the initial file operations are complete and when a particular file in the list is required but not open yet, it's priority can be raised in the threadpool.

Photoshop :: How To Copy And Paste Shape (or Layer) From One File To Another Keeping All Of Its Attributes

Mar 6, 2013

Our department currently uses MS Paint to place varied colored boxes for call outs on top of screen figures used in our documentation. As you know, MS Paint is not a robust image editing application, and we are frustrated at its limitations (especially not having a "non-destructive" edit capability).

Consequently, we are evaluating a trial version of PS to see how a workflow could be developed that would allow the department to use call out boxes "stored" in a PS file that could be applied in an easy, consistent manner to our screen figures (but also keep each call out box editable) using PS.
 
Consequently, in PS using the shape tool, I created a file with our colored boxes for call outs, each on its own layer. Now I am trying to determine how you copy and paste a box (or layer) from this file to a "working" file (one containing a screen figure), while keeping all of its attributes (color, line weight, being editable, etc.). I can't seem to find an option to do this. Is there? If not, is there another workflow in PS that you can recommend for this type of procedure?

Photoshop :: Cannot Save As PDF - Could Not Save Copy Because File Is Already In Use

Nov 6, 2012

I have a number of PSD files I've created and I'm trying to save them as PDFs. I can Save for Web and Devices, I can save as a .gif, .eps., and every other format I've tested, but I cannot save as a PDF. I get the error:
 
"Could not save a copy as (filename) because the file is already in use or was left open by another application."
 
I'm running Adobe Master Collection CS5 with Photoshop CS 5.5 (12.0.4 x64) on a Windows 7 64-bit machine.
I have a 928 GB HD with 697 GB free.
 
I have rebooted and tried saving the files immediately after I reboot. I have killed my virus scanner. I have killed a number of other possible culprits including Acrotray.exe and CS5ServiceManager.ext
 
I have run Process Explorer as recommended by Microsoft and found no applications using the file. I've also tried saving the file to my external hard drive and/or renaming the file with only rare luck.
 
The boards seem to suggest Adobe isn't taking responsibility for this and pointing it back to the OS or other software. How/where to kill whatever process it is - but at this point, all my indicators point back to Photoshop.

Illustrator :: When Saving A File Using Save Option / File Is Not Staying At Size Of Artboard

Jun 18, 2013

am having an Issue with CS6 when saving files. When saving a file using the 'Save' option (not 'Save As') the file is not staying at the size of the artboard as it should, it is however being aurtomatically cropped down to the actual artwork size. This is causing issues with the Process we work with as we need the file to stay at the artboard size.If I click 'Save As' and change the Adobe PDF Preset to 'Press Quality' then this works, however this means that every file we save(which is quite alot in a day) means we have to go through the 'Save As' option and manually change each save.why this has suddenly started to happen with our Illustrators and do you know how to fix this so that it stays at the Artboard size when 'Save' is used?

Photoshop :: Action To Save File Overwrites Existing File

Nov 18, 2012

I did a search around, and did not find the answer.  Basically I have attempted to create an action in Photoshop CS6 which will save a file in the tiff format after i crop the image.  I want the file name to be the name of the image (which is supposed to change depending on name of the image) like this:

1280x720_MGXXX.tiff, where, in my case the XXX represents DIFFERENT NUMBERS.
 
I want to apply the action to one image at a time. Each image has a different number (name). I record the action, add the 1280x720 text to the image name in the Save dialog.  I am saving the image in a different folder from the source file.  The source file name is _MGXXXX.tiff (again XXXX is a number like 2220...).
 
When I run the action on a file, say "_MG2221.tiff" it adds the 1280x720, and saves the file.  When I apply the action on the next file (_MG2222.tif), the action overwrites the existing file, 1280x720_MG2221.tif, with the image.  The action always uses the name I entered in the Save dialog!!  I think I was able to do this in CS4 and CS5. 

I want to be able to open a file, crop and adjust it, and then save in a diff location with 1280x720 pretended to the file name.
