AutoCad :: How To Measure Photo With A Line Near A Teeth Model
Oct 13, 2011
i have a photo with a line near a teeth model which i need to measure. i have attached photo to autocad but how can i setup the real world scale so my measurements will be accurate?
I am new to AutoCAD and have been sent a 3D architectural model. I need to find the dimensions of some beams. The measure tool seems only to measure from point to point, and I need to measure from one side (or edge) of the beam to the other. The beams are not along the axes and the ends are not at right angles so there are no points that correspond to the height and width.
In Sketchup, I can easily measure from one line to any parallel line. How can I do this in AutoCAD?
I have some users that use Solid Viewer that I am cosidering switching to Inventor LT. I use Inventor Pro. There is a feature in SolidWorks that let's them quickly display the overall extents; length, width, and height for quoting purposes. The tool creates a transparent box around the 3D model and displays these dimensions.
Is it possible to use the Measure.ExtentsLength in a drawing to get model dimensions?
What I am trying to do is get the overall dimensions of the model and place them in a sketch block in the drawings so our machinist can easily reference the stock material. I can't figure out how to get the overall model dimensions.
Is there a tool where you just click on any line and it tells you how long the line is from end to end?
Basically I am drawing a curvy line that twists and turns here and there, but the line has to be less then so long. So I have to approximate the length by doing strait measurements and multiplying, it's really a pain.
I'd much rather just click the line, and it tell me how long it is from end to end, across turns and rounded edges and corners.
When you measure something with the distance command, according to the type of file, the last zoom you did, your graphic card and probably the speed of the wind, the little red line won't show.
Normally when you measure something, a thin red line is shown were the distance is calculated. But in my laptop, and both pc's of my client, Inventor shows this line only in parts, not in assemblies. I've got a Quadro 2000M, my client got Quadro FX 1700 and 1800, all with the recommended drivers.
So I tried with 3 other laptops. On one of them (with a K2000M) if you do a measure right after the file open, it give you the line, if you zoom with the measure command open, the line disappear and won't show again until you close and open the file again. But if you zoom without the command active, the line is shown normally. But it's not working like that on all machines.
Is there a way to restrict a dimension line to only measure vertical or horizontal?
I am trying to put in the vertical dimension from the center of circle "A" to the center of circle "B", however, when I select the center of "A" and move to "B" the dimension flips to Horizontal.
Is there a way to restrict this tool to Horizontal or Vertical?
Is it possible, using Design Accelerator to have Bevel Gears with straight teeth? I've tried every combo I can think of, and they are always curved teeth. Gears are not my most knowledgeable subject. I usually have the engineers produce the specs, & I get to draw them - they are not happy with the pictorial results.
I want to create a 3D model for a metal frame I bought commerically. To create the model in Inventor, I need to know the bend angle such as the one shown in the first figure of:

What kind of tool do I need to measure the bend angle of the real metal frame reasonably accurately?
In Inventor, is there an easy eay to create the teeth of the servo horns?
Why line display in model view and layout view could be different?
For example, a line of width 0.35mm and short dashed style is displayed correctly in model view, but in layout view is displayed as thin as the default width, and its dash style is also changed (dash length and interval).
I need to change the text line width in model space, not the overall text width or the text line width/weight in paper space. Our mold maker wants to measure that on screen and he wants to set the text line width to 0.060”, while the overall text width fixed.
For example, the text “REMOVE FROM BOAT” is 3” wide total from first letter R to last letter T and height 0.4”. That is easy to do. The hard part is that he wants the line in each letter to be 0.060” (1.5mm) wide. I practiced the true type text which is measurable in model space, but that is fixed with for a certain font with a certain size. I can change from one font to the other and get different thickness but cannot change the width freely to 1.5mm as requested.
How I would change both the model and paper space thickness of a line in AutoCAD 2004? I've tried changing "line thickness" and "line weight" in the properties dialog box but it doesn't seem to matter whether it's 0 or 9,999,999 or any number, it just looks the same, in both the model space and paper space views.
I have a drawing someone else did that uses polylines of different thickness so I have tried to figure out how they did it. Again, looking at the properties dialog box it seems to make no difference what I set the "line thickness" or "line weight" properties to...the line just stays the same size regardless.
I want to change line thicknesses because I'm designing a surface water pipe layout...I want the pipes to be a lot thicker than the lines that represent the actual building so that they will stand out when I plot the drawing.
teeth look horribly yellow in some recent pics. I am not like the "crest white girl" or any thing. But they aren't as bad as they look in these pictures I recently took.
found toothbrush icon in pallette. have the teeth highlighted but I am blowed if I canfind what to do next, there does not seem to be an apply button. Using Elements 7
I have drawn a site plan in model space at 1to1 scale. I try to draw hidden lines to show demolition. In paper space the scale is set to 1"=50" to fit on paper. But all the hidden lines plot solid. I had changed LTSCALE, PSLTSCALE, to 1. This problem keeps happening in most every thing I draw.
Is there anyway of plotting a cad drawing from the model view screen so that certain linescales show? At the moment when I plot it will show hatched items without the outlines.
way to take away sun glare from teeth or faces to make it match the rest of a face, or to tone down overexposure on skin in a flash photo, so the skin doesnt look too red or white?
I had a picture of a 10 year old, I want to use photoshop to make the 10 year old in the photo look 60... i want to add wrinkles, age spots, yellow the teeth, thin the lips... etc...
For some reason when I place new text or line work in a file it is fine, but when I save the drawing, close it and re-open it all of the text and line work found in model space goes gray. Yet if I place new text and use the match property command on text placed previously, that is now gray, and use it on new text, the new text recieves the attributes of what the previously placed text has minus the appearance of being gray. In my drawing I am using a shape file and a data connect image through planning and analysis.
2. nice frames and templates that can emulate the neoprint style [ trying extensis photoframe now.. but quite plain.. ]
3. other types of rendering which add on to the filters in PS CS2..personally prefer filters like photocopy / sumi-E.. those tad can make ur photo look like a hand-drawn one / cartoon look..
4. few clicks eye colour changing.. [ i can use PS to change.. but then process really too long.. and got many pics to edit.. ]
most of these are partly due to the last reason.. there are simply too much to do already..
