GIMP :: How To Create 3D Conic Section
Nov 10, 2012
I am planning to create a blog post that discusses the mathematical characteristics of conic sections, and would like to include some images.
I have found images that are almost exactly what I would like, on the Mathworld and Wikipedia websites:
[URL]
I do not think I can just take an image from either of these sites, so I will probably have to make my own from scratch.
Is it possible to make these kinds of images in GIMP? (Will also need to be able to annotate the cutting angles of the planes, and include some Greek alphabet.)
Or do I need a commercial Mathematics software package to start the image, and then use GIMP to make relatively minor edits afterwards?

So, I we were taught autocad at hour school but not autocad architecture because apparently autocad architecture is too "advanced" for us. so now I need to draw window details (thermally broken aluminum frame window with insulating glass unit) but it is so much work in autocad however I was told that I can just draw a window in autocad architecture and just cut a section and just make a few adjustments to get the window detail.

I am trying to make this conic shape for a fabric umbrella project. I have the outline in poly lines with the top column 3m below. I am just struggling to create a surface to represent the fabric membrane using the surface or mesh tools.

We as a company have just made the step towards Revit and I have been given the task to start using it and getting things to be presented as our company standards.
I have took a bit of time to create our section markers. They all seemed to work great and ticked them as complete off my list till I tested them and realised they are numbered. Is there a way I can get my section to be alphabetical e.g. section A-A, B-B etc.

I want to use CreateDIBSection to create a DIB section of >2GB, and I prefer to use GDI functions, not GDI+ or .Net.
I know I can not accomplish this task on 32-bit Windows, so I tried on 64-bit version. Then I found that I can create several 2GB DIB sections but can not create one which is over 2GB, even if a few bigger than 2GB is impossible (such as 2.1GB). The test platform is 64-bit Windows 7 with 8GB physical memory.
It seems that there's a 2GB limitaion, is that true? Does GDI object still have this 2GB limitation on 64-bit OS?
But I can allocate one memory block much more than 2GB on the same system using malloc or some functions like that.

I created a kitchen counter in Revit 2011 however, when I try to create a section it does not show what a section should show such as the shelves that are inside the cabinet. It just basically shows what an elevation would show. I checked all my settings and everything is good. What could be the problem? I created another family as well and when I do a section it shows what should be seen in a section. The same thing happens when I put the counter into a project. The section does not show correctly as well as the wireframe visual style does not show in plan view. It show as if it were in hidden line.

I tried to create a 2d section of a 3d dwg file (imported from Revit)
It kept giving me a message "There are no solids or surfaces that can be projected."
What is the reason of it? It's a 3d dwg file exported from Revit.
Also, can you generate a 2d section thru the xref.

I want to use the ellipse to cut out a section of a picture. Then I want to save the ellipse so that only the ellipse is shown. Instead, I am getting a rectangle with the ellipse in it. After that, I would like to put a border around the ellipse.

Why I can't copy a section of a layer.
I open a .jpg file and then using the Rectangle select tool highlight a section of the image. I then click CTRL+X and it actually cuts the whole layer showing me just the empty background.
All I want to do, is open the .jpg, copy or cut a section from it to a new image.

When I create multi sect views they plot 3 rows from left to right shown below:
0+00 1+00 2+00
I would like it to plot from bottom to top like shown below
2+00 5+00
1+00 4+00
0+00 3+00
Is there somewhere to adjust the settings?

If you can create a solid by lofting between two section, in this case they are 3d polylines, along a given path. The path is at the top of the sections. Using the loft command I have to key in the PO ( point ) option several times to get the path option to show then when I select the path it gets treated as another section. See attached.

I am trying to create some cross section reports. But I have noticed that none of the options available (Section Point Report, or any of the ones that use Sample Lines) will show any featureline information if it is not part of the region which is attached to the alignment chosen in the report.
For instance, I prefer to create my splitter islands as a seperate baseline (levels taken from a dummy surface) and add a simple kerb assembly to this. (So both are in the same corridor). My normal visual cross sections show the splitter island kerbs without issue. But the cross section reports do not.
I have a similar problem with some of the footways, which are created on a separate baseline. (I am working on car parks, where the footway surrounds the car park. So it is easier to create the footways seperately). The section reports do not pick up the footways, presumably because it belongs to a different baseline.......
I dont understand why a section report cant simply pick up any featureline it crosses??

I'm modelling a complex curve for a fashion garment. I've always modelled in polygons in the past but have had more success on this project using nurbs, however I've got to a certain position and I'm wondering which way is the best way to model / create the next section of the garment(see image attached). Is it just the case of creating lots of section lines as lofting?

I am very familiar on how to use the scissors tool, but I want to know once I get to the end, is there a way to go to another section of the image to cut out what I want to get rid of?
Example, a picture of someone with their hands on their hips - I want to cut out the space in between the hips and arms and then everything else. How do I accomplish that?

I have the following DDS file:

I need to change that blue piece into dark green and the red into light green. Highlighting the section would be the obvious part, but when I paintbrush over it, it looks cartoonish. How can I keep it looking professional like that, whilst changing the color?

I have been using the "Create Surface Profile" to create cross sections of a road at various points using separate alignments (at the various points). I was wondering if there was a more sophisticated way to do this? When comparing my work to other plans it seems that this method is juvenile.

I have in front of me a survey of a small section of road (it's only 10m x10m or something). I want to be able to create a profile along the road section to demonstrate the surface level changes. I have created a network surface but Civ3D doesn't seem to able to use this type of surface to create a profile. Is there anything I can do, perhaps a way of transforming the network surface into another type of surface? Or am I going to have to manually create this profile in ACAD!

I am attempting to create section views from a corridor. I have about 80 sections total that I would really like to stack 3 high...then just across the page. Any step by step that make this process easy to understand?
Right now I get 10 high then across the page (using 'draft' option). I've tried to make a dwt at a 10 scale, (setting the viewport at 10 scale and viewport as a 'section' in the properties), but when I use that, the sections start overlapping (this is using the 'production' option).

When creating multiple section views with production as the placement option, all the sections superimpose on top of each other. Attached graphic.
I tried to attach the .dwt file used for the multi section view, but the site doesn't allow upload of file extension .dwt.

I am trying to create a handrail section to suit an existing staircase. I have drawn the plan of the handrail out and then created a 3d sketch to plot the height of the handrail relative to the plan.
My plan was then to draw a spline through the points and sweep the handrail profile along the spline to create my model. If this is the right way to create the model or does tried and tested procedure?

I'm in the process of creating an exploded view of an assembly. I'm having to do this in a presentation file, and I was wondering if it was possible to section one of the parts in the exploded view. To be more specific, I have the majority of my parts spread out around another assembly in the center of the page. I want to get a three quarter section view of the center assembly so the internals are visible. Is this possble from within a presentation file and if so, how can it be done?

I'm looking to basically do what this video shows:
[URL]........
I just want to create a section from the point cloud, but the point cloud won't allow me to select it as an object in the 'Generate 2D/3D section' dialogue as it's not a solid/surface.
On an unrelated note, I find snapping to the point cloud impossible - is there an option in OSNAP that I'm missing? I've tried this with attached PCGs and RCP point clouds, no difference.

I have lots of section views with some surfaces and pipes. Unfortunately, in a number of section views pipes are not shown in full height because the section view level range is too little. What I am wondering is - is it possible to automatically adjust section level ranges so that they fully include pipe sections? Please see also the image in the attachment.
