View 6 RepliesI used the Array command many years ago in college but have never needed it since.
However yesterday I was required to copy a block at even spaces 12 times along a straight line.
I done this manually but then realised that the array tool could do this.
how to space something along a line at equal distances using the array command.
connecting two circles with different diameter into a solid. I tried loft, but it is a partial solution since it creates a surface. I know there is a solid option. There surely is a way and a simple one but i don't know how. Bellow there is a picture with diameters and length of the mast. Also i included a dwg file. Not much done there.

Just like as quick select option, it selects all circles and told total quantity. But never tells individual circle diameter and their quantity.
It will be better , if information come as a list. Try lisp if required.
Same like as attribute extraction command, but in that blocks are needed.
i attached a lsp with and excel
the lsp does creat circles with diameter of 5 related to imported points from excel
i realsed that it is able to get the first column but can get the coordinate from the second one
(setq posX (atof (substr line 1 nPos))) (this is ok)
(setq posY (atof (substr line (1+ nPos)))) (not this one)
I need to create a 100 wedges 'spinning wheel' graphic (like a pie chart but does not require pie chart functionality) with each wedge of equal size and spacing but can't seem to find a process that works.

Basically I want a blue circle with a yellow inside ring. What's the best way of doing this? The only thing i can think of is: creating a blue circle marquee, and then another (trying to estimate a new circle size and change the color) that is yellow, and then making another smaller blue circle inside the new one. That's just ugly.
I tried the edit/stroke but that just gave me a stroke around the outer circle; it didn't put a ring inside the circle 15 px down.
Also I tried to contract the original circle by selecting it, then Modify/contract. That's got me a selected ring, inside the circle. Now how in the world do I make that little ring yellow? It just remains selected and I can't seem to find a way to color it.
I am trying to draw a parcel map using AutoCAD MAP 3D, using distances and bearings that were added by to the original hand-made drawing by the surveyor. The parcels don't quite close perfectly... what the acceptable tolerances are for parcels of say 1 acre and under, 1-5 acres, and 5-20 acre sites?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen using dimensions in paperspace i get the paperspace distances. Not those of the object i've drawn in model space.
f.e.: if i draw a line of 100 mm in model, and my zoom e on it in a viewport of 420, I'll get the distance 420. Like the dimension is not interacting with the model, see? Thought it would have something to do with the snapping, but can't find the link.
I'm working with site plans and have a lot of distances and bearings in my drawing.
Sometimes i need to reverse them. Is there a command in AutoCAD 2012 where you can reverse a hole heap of distances and bearings all at once? Mirror make them up side down. I want them to swop sides of the line they refer to.
I am aware of creating a polyline and using .AddVertexAt() to give the points, my question is if I want to create a polyline in acad I generally will pick a point and then type out @10.5<0 or something similar of that nature to pick my next point. Is it possible to add vertices to a polyline in .Net giving it the distance and angle of one point2d to the next point2d?
Example:
acPoly.AddVertexAt(0, New Point2d(0,0),0,0,0)
acPoly.AddvertexAt(0, New Point2d(1,0),0,0,0)
but instead?
acPoly.AddVertexAt(0, New Point2d(0,0),0,0,0)
acPoly.AddVertex ( use code equivalent of New Point2d = @10.5<0 from point at 0 index)
I have a form for adjusting center distances between several posts, up to a total of 20 posts. The number of posts is adjustable depending on how many I need. If there is 10 active posts there will be 10 suppressed post. When there are 10 suppressed post, I don`t need them in the form. Is it possible to hide the center distances I don`t need?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI haven't used Autodesk directly since Land Development 2i. I remeber being able to draw lines by distances and bearings with the numeric keypad. The bearing quadrant / DMS input was a fast way to draw parcels from an existing map. When I got to a curve, I remember being able to input radius and Delta angle. I've been trying to find those functions for months now. I found the Line by Bearing command and that works well as long as I don't run into a curve.
How do you draw a curve that's tangent to the previous line with the radius and delta angle? I've been going back to AutoCAD version 12 methods. That is, offset the previous line. draw a circle from the end of the offset. draw a line between the center of the curve and the end of the previous line. Rotate that line with the 12d34'56" format. trim the curve and erase the extra lines.
I've gone through all the curve drawing options in the home menu.I found the CoGo editor in the survey menu but it doesn't draw curves. It just draws a line from the beginning of the curve to the center and continues the traverse from the radius point of the curve. That's obviously either a serious misunderstanding of input or a program bug.
I'm literaly just starting to use CAD so this might be a silly question, but how would I offset a line more than one distance in a command? Is there like a symbol you put between each distance like 2000;2250;2650 or something along those lines (no pun intended).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an assembly with several parts where I use a pattern to duplicate the parts in the height. I cannot use the pattern sideways due to different center distances between the parts. I could get this distance by using several patterns, but I rather not if there is another way.
I have made a code for suppressing the parts in element 2 if the same part is suppressed in element 1.
IfComponent.IsActive("FB-07 midtstykke-001:1")=False ThenComponent.IsActive("FB-07 midtstykke-001:2")=FalseElseComponent.IsActive("FB-07 midtstykke-001:2")=TrueEndIf
which works fine, however, I only want the rule to run if two criteria are true. I`ve tried the following:
If Component.IsActive("FB-02 midtstykke-001:1") = False And No = 2 Then
component.IsActive("FB-07 midtstykke-001:2") = False
Else
Componen.....
End if
But this rule runs even if No = 3, which it shouldn't.
I have a problem with polar tracking.Previously it was possible to hover over a point, then define the tracking direction and then specifying the distance. In 2013, the polar and object snap tracking path go away / ends when typing the desired tracking distance. Then the tracking direction has to be defined afterwords, which is new to me.That means that its not possible to define multiple distances continuously AFTER defining the tracking direction.

Civil 3D’s sideshot command acts differently. It draws lines between the radial end points.

Do you know what command is needed to do what I want? It is not the Create Line by Side Shot command.
I am using AutoCad C3D. I have drawn a building and now I am trying to position the building on a plot with uneven property lines using only “tie distances” from the spots on the property to specific spots of the building.
I do not know which C3D program functions (with just distances known) to get the building placed properly on the plot.
I've got a closed traverse that has all the elements, but when I try and analyze it, I get the dreaded error: Insufficient angles, distances or points to calculate this loop. Creating a Traverse for Adjustment: [URL]l and my screen capture looks very similar to his, but I'm not getting any results.

I can't seem to move objects in my drawing small distances..I'm used to being able to do this..must be some setting I hit, but I can't find which one it might be. I have snap to off, but this isn't behaving like snap to..it's behaving like I'm only "allowed" to move objects certain distances; any smaller and the object simply doesn't move at all..

The images have been taken out but there are custom designed objects (masked shapes) where I am supposed to place my images.

How can I place an image into one of the objects?
I made a document with four layers:
background - parting linies - head lines - information
Each layer has many many elements (like parting lines: parting line 1, parting line 2, parting line 3 > each transformed 50 pixels).
The final result is a list that looks like this:
_______________
Head Line
- info
- info
_______________
Head Line
- info
- info
_______________
Now I want to resize the distances between each list element to 60 pixels. And it's a list that consists out of about 200 boxes. Is it possible to transform all elements the same way? Or do I have to mark each element on each layer that I want to transform? And which tool do I have to use? I have three columns and it would really take a long time to do this for each box and each element of the box.
