AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Changing String Of Text / Multitext / Dimensions To Another String

Nov 16, 2012

i failed to find one which would change string of a text to other for all types of objects. I mean it was usually either only multitext, or only text, dimensions or attributes.creating one which would change in abt 200 drawings:

-001

-002

-003

to:

-00001

-00002

-00003

in attributes, text, multittext, leaders, multileaders, dimensions..... at the same moment?

It is meant to be used in ScriptPro (by loading lisp in script).

If not possible, then can also open each file and run the lisp in each of them - still would save lot of time.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Remove Iproperty Mass Unit String From Mass Value In Text String?

Oct 3, 2011

I've been looking for a solution to remove the unit string ie Lbs, g, kg from the value given from a 'Mass' value in a text string.

As you may all know, creating text and having a 'physical property - mass' value...the unit string is there...

Lots of people on here have the problem...no-one has got a solution.

Until now...

Basically...open the part you need to get the mass property of in your text string.

Follow the instructions on this webpage...this is the first part...

[URL]

Basically, this creates a Mass property value in the parameters table that you can call on as a text parameter.

It's similar to the custom iproperty model - mass but NOT the same.

Once you have done this, you can go to the drawing of the part and create a text string in the drawing and call it up as shown in this procedure. BUT it still has the unit string.

Here's the best bit that you want to know...

To get RID of the unit string...open up the part again from the drawing...click on the parameter icon...find the user parameter...in the Nominal value column, right click on the value and you get a pop-up that gives you 3 options...

Custom Property Format, Make Multi Value & Delete Parameter.

Click on Custom Property Format.

The pop-up window comes up...showing you the property type...in my case...the 4 left columns read Text, g (grams), Format & Precision...

On the right hand side I have a Preview of the text...then 3 check boxes...Units string, Leading Zero's, Trailing Zero's.

Units string is checked.

Uncheck it.

Close it...Save your part...go back to the drawing and hey presto!...the text now shows the weight you require as a straight value...no units!

Illustrator :: Relink Images Using Replace() String Method?

Oct 23, 2012

I have a script using the dynamic content plugin from illustrator which takes and XML file and replaces it with a new one. All linked text/symbol/image links have their paths updated or text content updated.
 
The problem I have is I have background images which are not dynamic so I need to relink these based on their file path.
 
We have two shares, an OPI & an FPO, because of the size of backgrounf images we keep the FPO links in whilst artworking.
 
What I'd like to do is relink all images if they contain FPO in their file path, I'm in CS5.1. I had a look and found CS6 has a .relink method but obviosuly this is no use to me in CS5.1

Illustrator :: Finding And Replacing A Text String To Style Block Of Copy

Jul 19, 2012

Is there a way when finding and replacing a text string to style the block of copy. My problem is that I have some color codes given by the customer that now need to be converted to our internal color matches on our production drawings.
 
The original string of text looks like this:
Holder: P1 (Metallic Silver)
 
What I’m getting when I go to replace this string is:
Holder: Natural Satin
 
What I want is:
Holder: Natural Satin
 
I do not want the replaced text to be italicized. I'm thinking since the original string ends with an italic style that the replacement string is also italicized. There are about 50 pages of drawings with about 10 colors on the job and some pages have them entered in more than one place. So that's a minimum of 500 entries and defititely more considereing the multiple places these are called out. I'd really rather not have to copy and paste all of these by hand. I'm use to FreeHand, which would respect the font styling of pasted text in the find and replace diaglog.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create A Wire Rope Solid To Cut Out Of Block

Oct 13, 2011

I just installed Inventor 2012 two days ago and obviously no training yet.  My boss asked me to do a part for GibbsCAM which includes a 7/8" left hand wire rope imprint in a block of steel for this afternoon's production.  I have my block done, what is the best way to do this?  I'm thinking create a wire rope solid to cut out of my block.  Would I use the thread tool: that's not the same but would it work?...  I don't need a representation.  I need the read thing that will work!

Illustrator :: Why Does Settings And Brushes Keep Resetting

Jan 7, 2014

I have Illustrator CC (at the moment I am using the trial version), and I have used it a few times. The only problem is that every time I have made some changes to the hotkeys/keyboard shortcuts, and added a few brushes, this disappears (like it resets back to factory settings by itself) when I re-open Illustrator.

Illustrator :: Removing Tints From Brushes

Sep 18, 2013

using brushes in Illustrator 5.5, I cannot find a way to change the "tint" of an art brush to a solid color. I have dragged the brush from the brush library to an ai document to try to modify it ...no luck. I have expanded the brush to art outlines ...no luck. I have expanded the transparency. All color and transparency panels indicate 100%, however the object is still a transparent tint. I have tried cutting and pasting the expanded object without luck.
 
I have read the reference manual on this subject, but nowhere does it tell how to remove the tint and make the newly created object a solid color.

Illustrator :: Why No Pressure Options For Bristle Brushes

Oct 20, 2012

I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone and try bristle brushes. The first thing I notice, is the lack of pressure control. This baffles me. Is this just a programming limitation? As a painter, I depend on pressure to create nuanced effects.
 
I'd be interested in seeing how people are using this feature. The demos on Youtube are not impressive, but I'm sure someone is using them to their potential.

Illustrator :: Too Many Anchor Point When Brushes Expand In CS6

Jul 19, 2013

I have recently upgraded to CS6 from CS2. I do a lot of digital inking in Illustrator as part of my job. In CS2 I would create a simple tapered brush using 4 anchor points. When I would draw a brush stroke say with two anchor points, and then expand that brush stroke. Illustrator CS2 would convert the outlined tapered brush stroke back to the the original 4 anchor point path that I had originally created with maybe one extra point if the stroke curved  drastically. Now is CS6 illustrator creates that same expanded brush with 9 to 12 anchor points in the path. This makes the program completly useless for my task. Is there anyway to correct this?

Illustrator :: CS6 - Scaling Line Weight On Brushes

Feb 5, 2013

I'm using Illustrator CS6, and want to scale an object that has a brush applied to it without scaling the line weights in the brush. I've been able to somewhat do that by Expanding the object with the brush applied, but then of course it no longer has a brush applied to the object. Is it possible to scale an object without changing the stroke weights in the brush?
 
This is what I have now when I scale, the line weight of the brush scales when I scale the line weight of the line the brush is applied to:

What I want is to be able to scale the line weight of the line the brush is applied to, but not the line weight of the brush itself.

Illustrator :: Editing Image Created With Brushes?

Oct 4, 2013

Can parts of an Illustrator brush be removed or erased where they overlap on an angle. Obviously straight portions are not a problem and can be handled by moving the anchor point of the path. However, I have created a pattern brush with 6 parallel lines and I am designing a typeface for a Typography class. There are areas where the brush lines overlap.
