See attachment. I remember there being a registry key you could add or change to the tools, but when I did that I always got two errors in drawings that would appear every audit.

We don't use 3D commands at all and are looking into purchasing the LT version for budgeting reasons. What we are trying to find out now is if you can export and import SHP files from GIS ESRI software. Are you able to edit the SHP files if necessary?

In searching for an answer to this there were some responses that it really wasn't possible, however those were from previous versions of AutoCAD. I'm using 14 now. Is there any new functionality in 14 that allows this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have done this many times in the past, but when I export a dwg (2007 format) to illustrator it opens fine, but it is slightly wrong in scale from the CAD version. I have no clue why this is happening. Also I know illustrator doesn't support CAD layers so everything comes in on one layer which is fine. In Illustrator I am having trouble separating the layer into multiple layers as everything is contained in a clip 'group' not sure what that is either.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having issues with Civ3d 2013. I pushed off upgrading from 2012 because of the format change and the service pack release. I was hoping little glitches would be fixed.
Here are the a couple of glitches to date that I have seen no resolution to in the long list of threads.
1. Layer filters do not filter, unless I have checked "Apply filter to toolbar". The problem is, I dont want to apply them to the toolbar.
2. Publishing to PDF - when set to lines merge (set in the page layout and the publish setting), the wipeouts dont work, and the background masks on leaders makes a faint border around the text in the PDF. When set to overwrite, to get the wipeouts to not print to the PDF as a big black blob, they have to be on a layer set to color 255. I can work around most of the wipeouts, except for dimensions because the background mask doesn't seem to take.
I try to freeze layer in ACAD LT 2013 from Layer-II toolbar menu but it is not working.

1. When creating a new layer state, and selecting all layers and clicking "remove from layer state" and then "okay", upon going back into the layer state, about 80% of the layers have returned and you have to select all and delete again and hit okay, and then go back in and do it again, about 7 or 8 times total before the layer state is cleared out and ready for you to add back just the desired layers. Even if you don't create a blank slate layer state to begin with, whatever layers you delete, once you hit okay and go back into the layer state, most of the ones you just deleted are back.
2. Even more of a problem is that sometimes all the already created layer states will suddenly reassimilate ALL layers in the drawing, and the above process has to be done to all existing layer states.
This takes an enormous amount of time to correct for multiple layer states, which we typically have in a drawing.
Trying to change the color of a layer in a viewport (different than the default layer color (i.e. model layer color)). Objects are set to bylayer. Changing the VP color in the layer dialog brings up the color dialog, select a different color, click OK and the VP Color DOESN"T change in the layer dialog. It stays at its previous color. Occurs on several machines.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat I want to do is to have an adjustment layer that is a reversed, black and white image. I initially thought to merge B&W and reverse adjustment layers, but read that an adjustment layer may not be the target of a merge. Is the way to accomplish this to fiddle with the B&W adjustment layer sliders somehow?
I like how the black and white displayed image of a given color channel looks, how can I export that channel into a layer?
I have been trying to export an autocad sewer map and import it into gis. I dont know the best way to go about this and bring along some intelligence to gis.
This autocad dwg has no real intelligence in it.I can make shp files in autocad, that seem to work of for lines, I can do a data extraction for points and texts and import the spread sheets, that works too. I want to minimize the amount of editing we will need to do to the new map in gis by importing the line sizes, pipe type from cad.
I want to simplify the updating process also.
I want to export a pdf to import it in Photoshop but the drawing is not accurate, the lines are off. I tried to uncheck the option "scale lineweights" but they are still not accurate.
I've seen this mentioned before but for printing right away from Autocad, I want to import it in Photoshop not print it.

I set the thematic rules for a connected data (example .shp file) in the style editor, can I use this thematic rules automatic for other connected data? This other connected data (other, slightly modified .shp file) have same values as the first.
(I think this so, as in arcview the .avl file, or in arcmap the .lyr file)
Can I export, and than import the thematic rules?

I recently completed a new parts list style - which I thought would be nice to use in some other idw's. So I exported it and saved it as "XXX BBB". Its original name was "XXX AAA".
When I go into another idw and import it I get it coming in as "XXX AAA" - even though I'm importing "XXX BBB".

Im struggeling with creating a code that opens a certain Excel spreadsheet and retrieves / inserts info.
the spreadsheet is a list containing part numbers for purchased components, therefore the list must be filled with information from iproperty. But it has to be where the next available number is. i had this working in iLogic, but have to move it to VBA for better use. the code that worked in iLogic is this one.:

If possible it would be nice if the code at the same time retrieves the new partnumber and saves the active part as this part numeber...
