how can I draw a circle with 285 ticks or small dashed lines along the rim U know just like the 360 degree compass.
After that I want to write text following the path of these ticks.In other words radial text so the whole thing would like like rays of text coming off that circle.
I want to animate the pf source but when i click on the Auto Key button for animate it, the ticks are don’t move, only the logo of pf source are moved.

What did i turn off/on and how do I fix this?
I received a drawing from a client where the architectural ticks display very large. The leader arrow shows as the correct size but the dimension tick does not. I went into the dimension style manager (dimstyle) and everything seems to be in order. The tick size is set up to be 1/16". I tried to dredge up out of my memory the autocad variables that mess with the size of the archtectural ticks like "dimasz" and "dimblk", but with no luck.
Currently using Autocad 2013.
So, this is something that's been a nuisance for a while now, and I think it's time for me to inquire seriously about a fix for it. I'm working with some ani's in max's timeline, and everyso often I find it starts to make use (or I start to make use...?) of "ticks"...I really dont wnat them, and in fact they cause a whole bunch of issues when adjusting keyframes as Im sure some of you can imagine.
Im not sure if it does this because of a setting I choose ( I always start animating in frames mode), or because I often will work in Key mode when Im swapping in a certain pose often...since all my character's animations are in one timeline.
The big question is...is there a way to FORCE these "ticked" keys onto full frames somehow? I've looked through all the timewarps I can find, and adjust <i>their</i> keys to full frames, but eventually it still goes back to ticks....WHAT MUST I DO!!!!! maybe there's a script, or Im missing something obvious?
I keep resetting to frames mode, and rechecking timewarps...to no longterm avail.
just got my boss to agree today to use cad's dimensions instead of the way he's always done it... which is dimensioning everything (everything!) by hand. Clearly that's just nonsense. But what is important is that I make sure these new autocad dimensions look exactly like the ones we do by hand.
I think I've pretty much got the basics down, I just have one major problem: tick orientation. When doing horizontal dimensions, the ticks run from bottom left to upper right. When doing vertical dimensions, they flip. This would drive my boss nuts... to the extent that I doubt I could get him to buy into this if I can't figure out how to keep the ticks running in the same direction.
I understand I could just dimension with no ticks whatsoever, and then just go copy them in by hand, but that reeks of the old, laborious way of dimensioning... and it really seems like there should be an easy answer to always keeping the ticks running the same way.
I created my sheets in another drawing using the Plan Production commands. Problem is that my alignment label Ticks displayed on the main drawing and Xrefs Modelspaces but do not display on the Xrefs' Paperspace. The ticks do not also plot on paper.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently started using Architect 2012. We use Architectural Tick for dimensioning.
The problem is the Architectural Tick arrow is not coming in at the proper scale (Arrow head size = 3/32", dimscale varies). The arrow head seems to be out by a scale factor of 25.4 (found by trial and error).
If so is there a software patch or workaround. Can the Architectural Tick block be edited and if so where is it?
(using Windows 7 - 64bit)
Setup 3 bar graphs (i.e. horizontal bar charts), with some data and text labels. Set them all in Type to Value Axis > Tick Marks > Full widthUnder graph > type, leave one as Value Axis: On Bottom Side. Change one to Value Axis: On Top Side. Change one to Value Axis: On Both SidesChange the stroke width and colour of these tick marks / lines the correct way - clicking twice with the 'plus arrow' Group Selection tool to select the whole group, and applying the formatting to the group.Update the chart, e.g. change the data or go into Object > Graph > Type and hit Okay,
Desired behaviour: The re-drawn tick lines should keep their assigned formatting like other groups in a graph.
What I actually see: The desed behaviour happens but only when the Value Axis is set to On Bottom Side. When the value axis is set to On Top Side, the tick lines are reset to an ugly default - 1pt thickness and pure black. When it is set to Both, the lines associated with the bottom labels keep their formatting, the lines associated with the top labels forget their formatting and revert to the default.
I'm trying to set up some chart templates that need the labels to be on the top side, and that need to be editable without losing their formatting. This bug as it stands is making this simple task impossible.
I have Civil 3D 2014. Currently my CUt and Fill grading styles show long and short batter ticks.
My question is...The long batter ticks are shown every 2m AND every Vertex and Elevation point on my Feature lines. Is there a way to make the style not show long batter ticks at every Vertex and Elevation point?
I have a stationing line. I've used the block PTTICL to make ticks. The ticks display perfectly. I'll run through a plot preview and the ticks show on the plot preview. I push plot go to the printer and the ticks are not plotted.
I've checked the layer. They are on a layer that should print.
I've checked the block. The block is created on a layer that should print.
I've run through a number of options regarding the alignment label properties and found "display" to be equal to "true."
Everything else plots just fine. Only the station label ticks refuse to plot. My project is fairly short so the work around was to put a poly line right on top of the tick mark.

I've got a small picture (which is basically a glorified line), and I want to copy and paste this 'line' multiple times, so that it is always pointing to the center of a circle. (Something like this [URL]........
I've worked out that I can copy and paste the layer, click on the rotate tool, set the center, rotate it by a fixed amount, fix it, and repeat a good few times, but that will be really slow. Is there a faster way of doing it?
I have been using the radial filter with no problems.Now it will not display the circle or ellipse. it seems to be working as when I try to do the circle and it will not show but if I change the exposure or any of the setting it does do that.
Have I accidently changed something or a setting to cause this .
I have this cirlce that I have filled with a radial gradient fill that I would like to place an image inside of. The problem is when I put the image in there the background of the image is white so the gradient does not show through...how do I fix this?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to put a text around a circle / arc.
I'm able to create an ellipse with the select tool, create a path from it and then add a text "along the path". Unfortunately I can't specify on what position of the arc/ellipse the text should start (left-upper corner, middle, right upper corner, etc.).
I'd like to create a logo with some text in the shape of a circle or maybe a horseshoe.
What's would be the best way to do this? I've tried creating a path in the shape of a horseshoe but can't work out how to add my text to it.
What i'm looking for is the equivalent of using "Path along text" (in this case for a circular path) but using already rendered bitmap data instead of text and a font. Why i need to do this is: 1. i don't have a font for the logo text i created (i don't think one exists) and 2. i would like to add some effects before "wrapping" the text around the circle.
I'm having so-so success with "distort -> polar coordinates" .
I'm trying to make a sort of neon glowing circle with text in the middle it's mainly the circle.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI created a text using the "chip away" filter and really liked the way it looked. Then I wanted to glowing hot filter to add some cracks into the text, to make it look like lava was coming out of it, but every time .
I try this the background turns completely white, or the text just becomes "glowing hot" and the "chip away" filter disappears.
I dont have it in my custom shapes and was wondering if i would be able to download it from some where.... anybody know where? need the radial blur like in this background.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using a radial gradient on a mask to create a selection, then messing with the selection with various tools, e.g. saturation, blur, contrast. All this on a duplicate of the background layer, of course.
On my most recent attempt, I noticed "rings" in a portion of the finished image. Is the sequence in which I'm using the tools the problem? Should I work on the top layer first, THEN create the selection? Here's a crop from the image:
I have a wide background image for the top of a site I am working on, which I am attaching. Basically, the original creator of the image faded the gradient from transparent to the background color of the site. The "shape" of the gradient is where I am having trouble. I tried even using the circle selection tool, then doing an inverted selection to force an oval shape, but that is not working great for me either.
