AutoCAD Inventor :: Changing Construction Centerlines To Just Plain Centerlines?
Sep 19, 2012A couple of quick questions:
1) Once a construction centerline is placed and constrained can you switch it to just a regular centerline?
2) Can you change a regular line to a construction line?
3) Can you change a construction line to a centerline?
I guess what I am asking is can you change line types at all ones they are placed?

Nov 30, 2011Is there a way to align a modelspace rectangle to viewport extents in paperspace? My situation is that I have several page 'layouts' (complete with paper size boundaries and title blocks) drawn in 2D modelspace, as this is how I have been plotting up until now. I am trying to set up these 'layouts' in actual paperspace Layout Tabs for batch processing, and I would like a way to position my view within a viewport so that the recatngle that I have drawn in modelspace snaps to the viewport extents. I am sure this is a 'day1' type of question, but I'm very new to paperspace Layouts.

Sep 11, 2013Is there a reason a sheet metal "cut" isn't an option for the automated centerlines tool? Am I overlooking something? When I make holes in sheet metal parts, I draw the circle then "cut" it into the sheet metal. For some reason I can't find how to give those automatic centerlines on drawings.

Aug 16, 2012When I click to to automated centerlines, it usually places a vertical/hozional centerline on all the circles in the drawing like in the first attachment. But, sometimes it will make the centerline to angle around the center like in the second attachement.
What you have to do so that the centerline come off at angles like in the second picture?
Otherwise I end up using the centerline feature and drawing them all in which is a real hassel!

Jun 22, 2013I'm trying to create some simple vertical centerlines to be drawn in the same spot on all existing artboards in my document. What I have so far is creating the proper amount of centerlines but only drawing them in the correct spot on half of the artboards while the other half are being drawn in the space between the artboards. Here's what I have so far.
function addCenterLines() {
var doc = app.activeDocument;
for (var i = 0; i < doc.artboards.length; i++) {
var abRect = doc.artboards[i].artboardRect;
[code]...
showing the top of a couple of the artboards and the misplaced centerlines in between.I think I have a great misunderstanding of how the abRect coordinates work, as in which side is [0],[1],[2] and [3], which may be leading to my inability to get this right. How I can sort out my centerlines. The centerlines provided in the print dialog are not an option in this case.
Illustrator :: Paragraph Align Left Acts Like Align Right
Apr 30, 2013Occasionally paragraph allignment works opposite for left & right align, usually on Illustrator documents with Russian type.
In additon on center align text I set my cursor to input a period at the end of a sentence, and the period instead gets added to the beginning.
In character palette language is set to English USA, this is point text.
I created a new point text and this is happening, if I paste text from another document alignment works fine, font is Arial black but happens with all fonts.

Sep 18, 2013For one of our project, we have a very precise scanner that picks 3 points on a material to generate a plane.
(First point is always (0,0,0))
On autocad, I have to align different object with this plane.
I'd like to know if there is a method to directly align object with this plane?
(I can easily have the normal to this plane, and other informations, if needed)
We already try to calculate angles and make a rotation, but it's not very accurate.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Align Texts
Mar 1, 2012How to align texts in the AutoCAD?
I’m wondering if there is a way to align texts in the AutoCAD with no work around. For example, in the ArcGIS we can select the texts and force the alignment.
Sure, in the AutoCAD, I can force the text to have the same x-coordinate to align them or other kind of work around, but why we don’t have this as a command like what we have in the ArcGIS?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Align View Options In IDW
Dec 27, 2012I am detailing a drawing with typical hole dimensions on a piece of steel angle. The drawing is setup such that the fabricator will have two options for each end of the steel angle. I have created two parts with the two options per end and have placed them outside of the page for reference.
I would like to reference each end of each piece, so that there are four pairs of views on the page (the two legs of the angle at each of the four ends), aligned in a grid. I have determined the best way to do this is with detail views. (Using breaks causes the break sign to appear huge, given the large gap I want between views. Using cropped views does not make it obvious that each end is a cutaway.)
My issue now is aligning the eight views. I know of the align options (horizontal, vertical, and in position), but they align to the "origin" of each detail, which is the center. With the angles being the same size, this works fine horizontally, but vertically, the pieces will never line up exactly, which is crucial to at least lining up the two legs of a single angle. The best I seem to be able to do is get the detail sizes as close to exact as possible so the centers come close to lining up. Even creating a projected view from a detail treats the cutaway end as part of the geometry, making it look a bit ridiculous.
way to precisely line up the views? I have done extensive searching and am confident that there is no inherent way to align based on a point or edge (seems like a deficiency on Autodesk's part), but is there a way to move the origin of a detail or something like that?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Corridors With Align
Apr 9, 2012I was happy to get my Data Shortcuts set up (1) for myself: to create corridors of different design scenarios in separate drawings, and (2) to share data with my project team members.
Referencing and viewing them seems to be ok.
But I haven't been able to model a Corridor along an alignment, profile, tying to surface referenced from data shortcuts. I think I did once, then had problems after removing and re-creating, maybe re-naming some Data Shortcuts. Is that a "No, no" ? I didn't mess with any of the XML files, created everything from Civil 3D. I might have to delete everything and start with a fresh Data Shortcuts folder.
When I re-select Alignment and Profile for Corridor, then OK - it locks up. I created new sample lines along the new alignment. Maybe need to start with fresh corridor. How much am I going to have to re-create? Possible hang up locations?
