AutoCAD Civil 3D :: COGO Point Labels Not Rotating When Entire Drawing Is Rotated?

May 14, 2013

So I have a survey of a roadway that was created 15 years ago and was converted into autocad civil 3d 2012. No problems there, however, I am going through the survey and rotating the COGO points (ie Traffic Signs, Utility Poles) and the text to be parallel to the roadway. I am in UCS World and have no problems rotating the points and text to what I want. THe problem starts when I rotate the drawing using UCS 3P so that I am looking at a portion of the roadway that is parallel to my computer screen. Now the text and orientation of the signs etc are no longer parallel to the roadway and did not rotate when I rotated the entire project. 

Now I was under the impression the  points were to rotate automatically to what I set them as, ie parallel to the roadway. I'm sure this is an easy fix or I am not understanding something.

Illustrator :: Creating Clipping Mask From Object With Appearances?

Aug 20, 2013

I was trying to create a clipping mask from an object that is made from two shapes, and one has appearances but I had to resort to expand appearance, then use the object as a clipping mask.
 
Is there really no way to keep the dynamic appearances and use a layer as a clipping mask?

After Effects :: Attaching 6 Different Streaming Videos To Edges Of A Rotating 3D Cube?

Mar 4, 2013

I've created a 3D cube in After Effects and instead of just a solid or a photograph on each side of the cube as it rotates, I'd like there to be a different video stream, like the cube in the center of the frame of this video here: URL....
 
Apparently he used another program than AfterEffects.How would I do this in AE? Could I make each streaming video be a parent to its corresponding side of the cube somehow?

After Effects :: Rotating 3D Cube With Orbit Camera And Keyframes - On Playback It Keeps Zooming In And Out

Feb 4, 2014

I created a 3D object (a Doctor Who TARDIS) just for fun and I'm trying to figure out how to animate it spinning in space with the orbit camera and keyframes. I do the orbit and the keyframing works fine, but when I play it back the whole thing zooms in and out madly, almost like it is throbbing in and out. This funny "throbbing" happens in between the keyframes.
 
The zoom attribute in the camera options is actually locked, the only attributes changing as I move along the timeline are the position attributes, which I am keyframing off.

Illustrator :: Rotated Images Become Distorted?

Mar 1, 2013

I'm creating a van wrap design for our company, by Monday, so time is of the essence.  When I import an image onto the design it's perfect, but when i slightly rotate the image, all the edges become serrated. Will this affect the final print? If it will affect the print what is it that I need to learn or do to change this?

Illustrator :: Rotating 5 Shapes Evenly?

Feb 21, 2014

I usually make a 6 petal flower shape by creating a petal, flipping a copy and rotating 2 copies at 60 degrees. (at left, below). But I want to make a 5 petal flower and cannot figure out how to do that. let's say I have an elongated oval and I want to rotate 4 more copies at 72 degrees. And I want it to be "mathematically perfect / evenly spaced, using the black dot as the point of rotation. how would i do that? On the right - you can see what i am aiming for, but there's no way to be perfect doing it by hand.

Illustrator :: Gradient Does Not Rotate When Rotating Shape

Dec 17, 2012

Completely unlike the way Illustrator worked in previous versions, when I rotate a shape (say a square) that has a gradient in it, the gradient does not rotate with the object. For example if it is a black to white gradient and initially the black is at the bottom of the square, if I rotate the square instead of the gradient moving to the top, it stays at bottom. Same thing if its rotated to other rotations, 45 degrees moves the black to a corner etc. I can't find this anywhere, is it a preference? I've had 2 installs of Illustrator now on 2 clean Windows 7 installs and its still the same. A very frustrating workflow being that I am an animator, I don't want to have to manually change a gradient everytime I do another frame.

Illustrator :: Rotating Text With Rectangle Fill?

Oct 8, 2012

I need to create a text with a rectangle background and a coloured border around this rectangle. Here is what I do:

- I create a text
- I select the text and add a fill and a stroke that I then transform into a rectangle
- I now have my "label" as I want it to be but now I need to rotate it.
 
Problem is I can rotate the text but fill and stroke don't follow, they remain horizontal and just adapt so that it still fits the text. As a result I have a rotated font with a big rectangle box. Can I rotate fill+stroke with the text?

Illustrator :: How To Stop Shapes From Auto Rotating

May 18, 2012

When I create a shape, like a rectangle, it starts out slightly rotated or skewed. When I take another shape, like a half circle, and reflect it, it rotates at a slight angle. This happens every time I start a new file. I don't see rotation in the appearance panel. When I look at the transform panel it lists rotation at zero. Yet all of my shapes tilt down and to the right.
 
How can I stop my shapes from auto rotating?

Illustrator :: CS6 - Rotating Single Pattern Swatch

Mar 11, 2013

I am trying to work out how to rotate a pattern swatch without that rotation affecting all the other pattern swatches on my palette. I don't want the rotation to apply to just one instance of fill, I want to edit the actual swatch so that whenever it is used in the future, that rotation is applied.
 
I have tried the obvious - eg going to object, transform, pattern only... and it works, but it also rotates all my other swatches; and I can't work out if it's rotating it for just that object or if it's actually updating the pattern swatch orientation.
 
Additionally some comprehensive tutorials on making patterns using the updated CS6 software - everything I've found so far just raises further questions for me. I'm talking about, for example, being able to change the width or rotation of a stripe within a pattern and have it still tile seamlessly.
 
I'm using CS6 on a PC.

Illustrator :: Rotating 3D Extrusion Certain Number Of Degrees?

May 4, 2013

how to rotate an extrusion a specific number of degrees. I can easily do it with Isometric views and the preprogrammed Off-Axis views. However, I just chose a random rotation.
 
In the example below, I made some stairs. Getting them to go in the opposite direction is easy - I just mirror the profile. However, I can't figure out how to properly rotate the stairs 90 degrees.
 
How to calculate these? I'm sure there's a way, but my brain can't get over it. I'm used to working in 3D modelling software where you can rotate based off a relative plane, not the fixed plane that Illustrator uses.

Illustrator :: Rotating The End Point Of Stroked Line?

I am trying to rotate the stroke on an end point of a line that I've drawn.  Is there a way to do this while keeping the line in tact?
 
Before:
 
Desired Effect:
 
Notice the top point on this line.  I've faked the rotation that I'm talking about.  Is this possible to do without destroying the line, adding a white element above it to look like I cut if off, etc.?

Illustrator :: CS4 - Rotating JPG Gets Bounding Box Stretched And Center Shifted

Nov 26, 2012

CS4 Bug - Rotating jpg gets center stretched and size expanded.
 
What happens is I have a jpeg in a separate layer. I then shrink it to overlay on another layer. I begin to shrink and rotate it, and then at some point (seemingly a certain angle) during rotation the image's bounding box gets stretched like 500% or some gross number. How do I stop this from happening?

Illustrator :: Why Link Resolution Changing When Rotating Image

Feb 12, 2013

I placed a .psd image in Illustrator CS5 at 100% at 600ppi. My link information is telling me that it is at 600ppi. But when I do a 90degree rotation, my link information is now telling me that I have a picture resolution of 859ppi x 420ppi. Why is that? From what I know and learned, a resolution doesn't change except when we change the scaling of an image but not rotating it.
 
This made me wonder because when we receive files from customer with embed images, how can I know that this image wasn't rotated and that the link informations panel is giving me the right numbers?

AutoCAD Inventor :: IDW And Colors / Appearances

Dec 5, 2012

I have a question pertaining to Inventor Drawings:  Occasionally in an .IDW I make a change in the assembly and I notice that most parts do not update to the new size.  More importantly, if I make a change to the color or appearance of a part  it doesn't reflect in the .IDW.  Is there a way that I can make this happen?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Appearances Attributes In Library

Nov 15, 2013

Is it possible to save an attribute to an appearance then save it to a library? I would like to store some finish data that can be accessed later from the api. I can apply the attribute to all the necessary renderstlyes and use the SaveToGlobal() method. It seems to work great in the part the program is run from, but when I go to the next part and apply the same appearance it does not contain the new attribute. I have also tried creating a copy of the appearance in the document then save that to the library, but any appearances that I edit or create programmatically will not save to the library even if manually drag it within the appearance editor. My project show the material and appearance libraries set to read/write and if I create an appearance thought the editor I can move it to the library without any problems, it's only the items created/modified through the api that will not move. I am running Inventor 2013 SP2.

Illustrator :: When Rotating Simple Black Rectangle / Jagged Edges Are Created

Oct 8, 2013

I have been messing with a simple black rectangle and when I transform it, jagged edges appear. This is the base for a logo for web. I have anti-alising checked in pref. The logo looks horrible and blurry/jagged on the edges even when previewed on several screens from pc to mac.
 
this is also happening with text, that has been made an object (top of text seen in the rectangle.)

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Restore Or Fix Default Materials And Appearances In 2013

Oct 21, 2012

How do I go about restoring, repairing or fixing the default materials and appearances that come installed with Inventor Pro 2013?  I have a stand-alone single seat installation.  SP 1.1 has been installed.

I tried to create a custom library of materials and appearances by making a copy of InventorMaterialLibrary.adsklib and renaming it.  I then added new materials.  Depending on project, I get nag messages regarding template styles in conflict with the library styles.  I'm also getting message warning me that the InventorMaterialLibrary can't get loaded.

It is my intent to create a custom materials and appearances library that mimics the as installed InventorMaterialLibrary plus some additional materials and appearances.  The custom library and appearances need to be available to all NEW projects and MAY be added to existing projects without getting the nag message about style conflicts.

I'm also seeing a behavior where the default appearance changes from standard light gray to the first appearance listed in the Autodesk Appearance Library, the 1.5 inch blue tile.  I suspect that's the reason I'm getting the nag message.    How do I fix this?  How do I prevent this from happening in the future?

1) Restoring default as installed material and appearance libraries

2) Creating a custom materials and appearance library to contains ALL items found in the InventorMaterialLibrary plus new materials and appearances

3) Preventing nag style conflict messages

4) Preventing the default appearance of light gray to change to the 1.5 inch blue tile

The machine I'm currently using needs to be ready to go in the morning.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2013 Appearances - Adding New Colors In Custom Library

Jan 8, 2013

First, I have not grasped the extent yet of how the new appearance library works.. we don't get crazy with colors, reflections etc.. but we do have a handful of colors that we use on the machines we use.. so instead of using the default appearance library, i made a new appearance library.  All this went well, but i periodically as i need them will add colors to it.. problem is that i'm obviously doing something wrong, because my colors don't always stay in there after i restart Inventor.. and yesterday, i can't seem to keep any of the colors i setup in there to stay.. all i want to do is copy specific colors from inventors appearance library.. drag them into mine, rename them, maybe tweak the color, and then they be there for next time.. why won't they stay?  

The edit pencil will come up on my library.. i've done the release edit after i'm done.. everything works in this inventor session, but if i turn inventor off and back on again.. they are gone.. only thing i have thought of remaining is that 3 users on our network share the same design styles location so we all our using same stuff, so is the file inventor uses in design styles to save to read only or something, but i read that appearances aren't saved in design styles.. How to do this and the colors stay and populate through all the existing stuff.. I have got the colors to lock into my template ipt in the doc appearances.. and i've done the save to custom library thing.. works until i restart inventor..
