I have made a floorplan, but I have not added dimensions, and was wondering if there was a command to display the measurements even if the floor-plan is made.
View 7 RepliesAfter closing and reopening my command prompt, I find that it is now at the bottom left of the screen and no longer part of the main graphics window. How can I get it to display at the bottom of the main display?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAny good tips when it comes to calculating the area of a floor plan? You are supposed to start measuring from the outermost part of the walls, but when I do that I run into trouble with the porch on the bottom of the drawing and the room on top left.
The problems are basically that the porch is not supposed to be included in the total area, and in the room on the top I end up measuring a small area twice if I start my measuring from the outermost part of the walls. This is not very well explained but I've drawn two red lines on the drawing to try to show where the problem areas are.
Having trouble with the display order command? It does not work when you right click or when you type in the command. It says command unkown.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've seen this happen with a couple of the previous releases, but not for some time. After the CLOSE command is issued, the drawing graphics remain displayed but no AutoCAD specific keyboard or mouse input is accepted. More of an annoyance, I guess, as Control + O will then allow opening of another drawing file. This just started today for no apparent reason after using 2014 for the past week or so. Prior to this happening, my workstation locked up completely while trying to close a CAD file and Task Manager wouldn't take any input.

When pasting to the command line there is a huge delay from when I hit CTRL-V until the actual text is displayed in the command line. It takes roughly 4.5 seconds for the following to display after pasting: (command "-view" "D" "*"). The time it takes is roughly the same and does not depend on the size of the lisp that I'm pasting.
The command bar is docked to the bottom and there is no transparancy enabled.I have tried setting AUTOCOMPLETEDELAY to 0 and 10 with no change.I have completely disabled all Auto-Complete options and it still happens.
There is also a significant delay between Auto-Complete populating the list of suggestions and when I am able to use the arrow keys to move the selection box down to pick a command.
I have created city/landscape artwork using photoshop line and box tools. If you go to URL... then click on the link that says (click here to view Gotham City) you will see one of the images I am talking about. Can this image be made to look the same in vector.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe options window will not display when typing "options" in the command line or selecting from the drop down. The options menu has to be hidden somewhere because AutoCad will not allow any other commands after typing options until I hit escape. I have tried restarting CAD and rebooting my computer with not luck.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI opened up my AutoCAD LT 2010 this morning at work and went to work on an existing file only to notice I have lost the ability to type in measurements. Meaning, when I go to draw a line I don't have that option to just type in 2.00 or whatever measurement I need. Same with drawing a rectangle or fillet; the down arrow prompt has dissappeared and I no longer can specify length by width (or radius/dia with fillet). Did I accidently hit something to cause this to dissappear?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've done a 3D frame in Inventor 2012 and after doing a 2D with a partlist chart I found differences between lengths. The length of the part list was the first one, the frame was modified and the partlist didnt update.
Found out that the d18 parameter was a fixed number. I managed to change it manually by changing the G_L parameter to d18.How can I set up my inventor to update the part length automatically?
I'd like to create a lisp that would check my drawings for stray vertices (I only draw in full measurements per UCS), and automatically round them up to the closest whole value, or at least mark them up in circles for manually fixing them.

I first create a new empty file (A4). Then I click on the empty working area and select on the toolbar the measure of the area (where I already find 210 cm and 297 cm). I try to change the measure from 210 to 180 (as example) and after I type 180 and press enter the value changes to 1,800 cm and the working area becomes very very big.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using a shared computer at a university and we just upgraded to CS6. When I use the line tool while making a mask a box pops up which measures the line's length and angle.
I want to turn it off, and it blocks being able to see what I am trying to mask. I've tried looking this up online and in Photoshop but I just don't know the correct terminolgy, i.e. what to call it, to find out how to turn it off.
here is a jpg screenshot:[URL]....
how to tell photoshop what measurements my image are. But how do I ensure that these measurements will be used when printing?
HOw can I know ahead of time that a certain portion of my image will print.
I have a template (.psd) that looks like this..Now I can see the image height and width by going to IMAGE, then IMAGE SIZE. But what I need to do is see the template measurements (where the blue lines are) so I can adjust thing like spine width. I am so completely lost here. I have no clue how to do that or where in the menu to look.
This template was created for me by someone I knew, but he has since moved out of town and I cannot get ahol of him. A bindery has given me dimensions as follows: Spine width = 1-15/16" , Front cover = 6-15/16" , Back cover = 6-15/16" , Height = 10-1/4"
I need to adjust my template accordingly. God only knows how. Or maybe I can create a new template, but I'm lost there too. Yes, I have read numerous web pages and even watched some videos, but none have covered my actual issue.
I'm in need of dimensions of some of the graphics I've made however when exporting to png the dimensions include shadow lengths.
I need the width/height of the object minus shadow. Is this something that can be determined within xara?
