AutoCad :: Edit Dynamic Block In-place

Oct 25, 2011

I use refedit quite a bit to edit blocks in-place, but can't find a way to do this with dynamic blocks without breaking the link to the original definition and creating a new block definition.

Is there a setting I can change, or another way to edit a dynamic block in-place?

Sep 6, 2013

When I edit a block in place, REFEDIT toolbar pops up. This is good.

But why even I clicked "Add to working set" button on the toolbar, it still asks me select "Add" in command line?

Apparently I already selected "Add" button.

Is there a way to skip this command line option?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Globally Edit Lineweights Of Certain Components?

Nov 7, 2011

Is there any easy way to globally edit lineweights of certain components?  Several of the components look fantastic at one scale and terrible at another.  Some we just need to lighten but I cannot find where to edit them.  I can always (of course) edit the block once it is inserted or edit layers in each drawing but would prefer a more permanent solution.

Revit :: Changing Detail Lines Globally?

Jul 19, 2011

My firm has tasked, yours truly, with transferring the CAD Detail Library to our new Revit Standards. I started out by converting our CAD details to Revit and saving them in one file in individual Detail Views. The next step is to convert the line weights to the new company standard styles and widths. I thought it would be as simple as selecting an old detail line type then “Selecting All Instances in Entire Project” and converting all of those line styles to the new standard in one fell swoop (rinsing and repeating until all the old line styles were up to date). However, Revit doesn’t allow you to “Select All Instances” of Detail Lines (oops). We have about 500 standard details that need to be converted.

AutoCad 3D :: How To Edit Block In A Way Which Removes Original Origin Of Block

May 23, 2013

I use AutoCAD for mac 2013. I'm a interior design student and I have a question regarding editing 3D Blocks which can be downloaded from the web.

If I download a 'free' 3D Block, is it possible to edit the block in a way which removes the 'original origin' of that block?? I have tried exploding the block and redefining it in a wblock file and changing the layer. But I'm not sure if this process has removed the original information which it came from...

If there is a way to remove the origin (that is came from the web).

Feb 27, 2012

When saving an AutoCAD drawing there is a Thumbnail image saved (if you have the option turn on), but when the command "Edit Xref In-Place" is used there is no Thumbnail image saved. So now when I try to preview any drawing that has been edited through this command there is no longer a thumbnail.

AutoCad :: Keeping Parameters With Edit In Place

Feb 27, 2012

I have some blocks that I want to use to make a drawing. In the attached dwg, there are a few blocks inserted, and a shape made from those blocks.

As they stand, I can send the dimensions of each block into an excel spreadsheet or into a table. However, as you can see, if I want to make that triangle look like a triangle, I need to edit the blocks themselves. I'd like to edit each block in place (even though I'll have to create a new block for the edited version, that's okay), and still be able to reference the length of each block in excel.

If possible, I'd also like to figure out how to reference the angle into excel, so that when I look at the excel table, it tells me that I need that piece of material, cut to that length, with that angle.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Edit Xref-in-place And Points Disappear

Aug 7, 2013

Scenario:

1. You have a base map with survey points inserted.
2. You create a sheet, xref the base map, freeze survey points in base map, insert survey points into sheet so they can be manipulated for visual clarity.

Problem:

In sheet drawing, using the edit xref-in-place command to edit base map causes the points to want to be reinserted and in a lot of cases, when the sheet drawing is re-opened, the points are completely gone.
