Recently Ive been asked to edit some drawings to convert to cnc formats to proand Igram on a plasma cutter. Our engineer uses 3D to create pieces and then converts somehow to a flat pattern for cutting . The problem Ive having is when I pick what I think is an arc that I could apply a stitch cut to in the flat pattern it is actually multiple little lines. Can i somehow edit all those little lines to one continuous line ? Hope this is enough information and if I need to attach the drawing I would gladly do so. probably wont be the last you hear of me
We installed C3d 2012 a few months ago. When importing or exporting point I need to select the point file format each time. In previous versions, since we almost always use the same format, once you selected the format and imported/exported points it was selected by default the next time you imported/exported point. Since switching to C3d 2012 we have has issues of wrong format being selected for export (probably import also, but those are probably caught by the user themself).
I have tried creating a new format starting the name with an underscore as we do with the most common styles so that it would be listed at the top of the list. This did not work. It seem to me that the only solution is to delete all other formats to insure the correct format is seclcted. This will cause a problem on those occassions when another format is required.
We are creating property set data and attaching it to polylines in autocad 2011. export the drawing to the older format (2007) and maintain the property data connection. We don't have and old version anymore so I can't test.
I'm working on setting up some sheet formats for a few of our common drawing types. I'm running into an issue where even though I set them up with all the projected views having "Style from Base" checked, when the sheet is generated from the layout they don't carry that setting over.
The particular one I'm working on needs all the views shaded - as it currently works, both of the base views come in correct, but the two projected views are unshaded because this setting is being lost. The format is usable, but currently requires an additional step of turning "Style from Base" back on, so it's not where I want it to be.
If I use one of the Autodesk-created sheet formats from the "standard.idw" template, they all seem to work, yet any I create don't. Am I missing something, or does this just not work?
I also need to copy sheet formats and have it replace existing like it would with Titleblocks or Borders. All it does at the moment it create Copy of Titleblock. Here is the current code.
Function CopySheetFormat(SecretDrawingName As String, Titlename As String, ActiveDrawingDoc As DrawingDocument) As SheetFormat Dim SecretDrawing As DrawingDocument Dim I As Integer 'Find the number of Standard Resources in the Documents collection. [code]....
in my autocad 2014 save as in 2007 & 2004 format system is not responding and not able to finish. but when i save in 2013 and 2010 format is ok. i install same copy of autocad in my laptop its working good.
I am developing an application for C3D using 2010 vb.net. How to build a list of Point File Format names using PointFileFormatCollection and PointFileFormat methods? How to extract the names from PointFileFormatCollection.
I need multiple (say two) instances of the same text values (in the same drawing) but in different formats.
Consider this: I have a drawing sheet with a title block that contains the drawing number and the author's name at the bottom with some other drawing details. Now I wish to have these "values" arranged in a matrix form at the top also, for indexing purpose.
TitleBoxMonoSpace.png
One way is to manually enter each value, one by one, in the matrix box but that would be too time consuming. So, is there a way to automate this; where I can enter the values in the bottom title block, which would automatically update the above matrix?
I believe it can be done using a combination of Attributes and Fields but am just not getting it. To make the issue even worse, I need Numbers without hyphens (-) and only Initials of the author's name!
How the order of the list of Point File Formats is controlled?
We have a large list of formats predefined for doing coordinate transformations between various coordinate systems, but there does not seem to be any logical order to the list of formats.
I am attempting to create a series of drawing templates in Inventor 2013.
I have successfully created four unique Sheet Formats with Border, Title Blocks, Revision Table, and text populated by iProperties.
I have a bunch of text that I want to have inside a square on the first page of a series of drawings. I draw the square in sketch mode, Create Sheet Format, and the sketch ends up as a separate AutoCAD Block ("SheetTemplates_XXX_Sketch1") rather than in the Sheet Format. I can place the block on the new sheet, but it can be placed anywhere as the block floats.
I have a set of notes for a given jurisdiction that I need to show on mumltiple layout tabs within the same file. However, the notes need to change their width, number of columns, height, etc. for each layout tab to work with viewports and other drawing elements within each tab. My question is this- is there way using fields, blocks, rtext, something that will allow me to create one master copy of the note and basically have instances of the note on those other tabs that I can adjust the wrapping, height, columns etc.? I could just create a bunck of copies of the same note, but then if we get a comment from an AHJ about the notes, we need to make sure the comment is addressed in each instance of the note instead of just one master note. Is there way to do what Im asking, or is the technology just not there yet?
I made this image with duotone(with the color sepia) and w/ a new layer that was filled and then cut out with the magic wand. this created an efect that made the image look "old." and then I added some rippled effects and sharpening and whatnot..
and then I tried to save, and it saved onto PSD. the thing is, PSD is a format specially for photoshop so I can't convert it.
I realized that any image I make with duotone (I dunno if there are any more but there prolly is) will only give you PSD, EPS, RAW, and PDF. none of which could really be used on the web.
With the installation of SP1 (VSX4), the options to create a blu-ray video file (assuming 1920x1080 only, though the same options exist for 1440x1080) are now:
Blu-ray (1920 x 1080) Blu-ray H.264 (1920 x 1080P) Blu-ray H.264 (1920 x 1080)
Now, I want to create a 'standard' Blu-ray disc of family videos. My camera is a Canon Vixia HF20, recording in 1920x1080 in the '60i' mode. The camera creates AVCHD formatted files. I know I don't want the progressive option, however, what is the difference between the other two options (is it MEG4 vs. AVCHD? If so, what should I choose when creating a new disc?). I want my disc to support as many blu-ray players and HDTV's as possible since I will be giving copies to various family members (meaning I don't want a format that supports only the latest releases of blu-ray players).
Should I try and work with two different formats in my time line or should I convert both files to the same format first, I'm using dv-avi files and MTS (AVCHD) files. Project will be going to a standard dvd. Both files are filmed in 16:9 .
I am new to Pro X3 and am having problems with titling when creating a DVD. I haven't found the programme intuitive at all with no indication of where to start with creating a title format and chapters. Having finally found it , under creating a DVD under Tools, hardly obvious, I found that there was a drop down list of formats under Fun and Historic but no indication of how to create ones own format. I searched the forum but could find only one item but on opening it found the video section was blocked out with the usual red cross in the corner to show it wasn't available. I have the latest upgrade of Direct X which I imagine should have opened it. I tried to open my own folders to obtain a photo. but the programme failed to open anything. which I assume came with the programme. I've deleted all these. Will this have created a problem and should I reinstall the programme?
I"m a newbie to Draw. I normally use Inkscape or AI.
I am trying to communicate with a print shop. I can only speak with customer service, not the art dep't. No matter what file I send, the message from the art department is that they need a vector file. I have sent .svg, .ai, and .cdr, ensuring that the entire area is included and that nothing is rasterized. Everything is paths/curves.
I'm using the latest Draw and AI. I"m trying to find out what version of Draw they are using.
I'm at a loss as to why these files aren't opening as vectored art. I have even suggested that they ungroup and look at it again.
I have a Photoshop file (PSD) with 2 layers: a white background and one layer with text.
When I click "save" to save my PSD in another format, the list for available file formats become limited. There is no option for JPG, GIF, TIF, PNG, etc...
I am a illustrator who needs to save files in different formats. Like 1 with a watermark, one small one for the website, another one for shop, a pdf file for the prints, etc. Is there a way to do all those things at once? Cause it really takes a lot of time.
I make my illustrations in Photoshop, but if it's necessary to only do those thing in another adobe program, than that's no problem.
I just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop CS6 and noticed that I had an extremely reduced choice of file extensions at the moment I wanted to save my work. In fact, I wanted to save it in .tga, but the option disappeared from the list. The PSD file I want to save only has 4 layers, 3 of which use an alpha channel; the 4th being a plain black background.
And the weirdest thing is that when I create a new, empty file, I can save it as a .tga image, along with a lot of other extensions that disappeared for the other image. Like, I can't even save my first pic in BMP. I only can use PNG, JPG, CIN, IFF, TIFF, and 2 or 3 others. Oh and by the way, it's the x64 version. But it does the same thing with the x32 one. I tried already.
My latest problem is file formats! I have two cameras, one of which produces .AVI video format. I have found that Corel does not "read" this format - or am I wrong? I am working from a card reader. I have succeeded in using the latter files in VS but only by converting to MP3. I don't want to part with this very handy camera so am I missing something in that perhaps I can change some setting to enable Corel to recognise .AVI files? I don't want to have to use the editing suite which came with my Traveller camera. I have found it is easy to load via Picasa - which accepts many formats - but it's when I come to insert media file to the VS library that the trouble starts - obviously because the files are .AVI.
I have a video that in its native format is 1920 x 1080. I need to add our logo to the corner and I have easily done this. Now I need to render it out into several different formats. Rendering it as an MP4 isn't a problem. However, I can't seem to get anything to work in the WMV category. Each time I try to change the size attribute of ANY of the 'profiles' I receive an Access Denied error from Windows Media inside VisualStudio. After I click OK, it tells me to restart the codec and try again. I can pick any of the profiles and receive the same error.
After that issue is corrected, I have another one that is similar. At the 1920 x 1080 resolution, the black bars occupy quite a bit of the viewing window. I can easily 'crop' them off but then I am faced with the same issue as above. How to I set ANY of the formats (MP4, WMV, etc) to 1772 x 472 as the finished size. None of the file types allow you to change the size. Am I missing a simple step here? I have a feeling I am.
Only got the software yesterday, got off to a good start, I can open Jpeg files in Camera Raw but I am not getting the same options for raw files. Camera is a nikon D90, shots download okay but appear small in the preview and I can't make them larger or do anything with them. When I highlight a raw file, the camera raw option is not available.
I reinstalled my photoshop and now I can't save in JPEG formats. I did an 10 hour work and I have to send it to my clients but they only accpet JPEG formats. someone please help.
