I've got 967 images to add an upper layer, something like a watermark, and the only way I know to do it, is manually inserting the "watermark layer" Do you guys know how to do this work totally automatized? any external program? or some ideia do make my life easier?
View 2 RepliesI've inserted a block into my drawing with this
....
Dim tmpDb As New Database(False, True)
tmpDb.ReadDwgFile(nombrebloque, System.IO.FileShare.Read, True, "")
Dim Transform As Matrix3d = Matrix3d _
[Code]...
and I would like to change some properties (layer, color,...) of the entities. (without modify the original block)
How can I access to these entities?
wondering if is possible to have a lisp routine to:After use the INSERT command, the routine will automatically change the layer of the inserted block to a specific layer according of its name.
i.e.
Step 1 : I will insert a block named Block A using the normal autocad INSERT command (I do not want to insert the block without the Insert window dialog box)
Step 2 : After the insertion, the routine will select the last insertion (or the last object, or any other best way to select this block and will take it's name)
Step 3 : The routine has a list that says:
(If the last insertion (or object) is named Block A, put it in the layer Layer A with color Bylayer and linetype Bylayer)
(If the last insertion (or object) is named Block B, put it in the layer Layer B with color Bylayer and linetype Bylayer)
and so on... I can make the approprieated list by myself folowing my standards.
I think it will be nice to avoid an error if the block is not in the list. So:
(If the last insertion (or object) name is not in the list, do nothing)
To finish, it will be nice to create the layer if it does not exist. Also, Unlock, Thaw and Turn on the layer if it's Locked, Frozen or Off.
I have a large number of parts that are set with a "2mm" Bend Radius.
1. I wish to change it to "1.5mm" but manually takes time . Ways to automatize this?
2. What Bend Radius is recommended to be used for steel sheets (1.5 ; 2; 4; 5 mm).
I have hundreds of jpg files which I need to change their size.
The action I run is:

Quite easy but I need to save the file without asking the quality because in that way I have to stay behind the computer clicking ACCEPT every time it saves one.
I tried overriding and not overriding but in both cases it asks for "quality".

View 7 Replies View RelatedIf you insert a Unitless block into a drawing with the units set to mm or inches via the interface, AutoCAD will automatically take care of the scaling for you. By looking at the properties of a Unitless block after insertion it appears as though all CAD is doing is scaling the block in accordance with the units in the drawing.
How CAD is doing this calculation and how to get the same effect using the .NET API at the time of insertion?I could setup a function that examines the units of the block being inserted and the units of the drawing the block is being inserted into but how would i be sure i'm using the same conversion value as CAD?
e.g. I might decide 1 Unit = 0.0393 when i do the insert, whereas CAD might use 1 Unit = 0.03937007.
It would be nice to either use the same value or a function that the API provides that i'm not aware of to do the conversion
According to the ADN the only way to insert a block and at the same time update constrained dimensions is to regen:
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.SendStringToExecute("DIMREGEN ", True, False, False)
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.SendStringToExecute("REGEN ", True, False, False)
After which I try to retain the selected the block
psr = ed.SelectLast
ed.SetImpliedSelection(psr.Value)
Is there a way I can force the command(stack) to operate consecutively? For some reason the block selection isn't retained.

I working with a LISP program which creates some assembly drawings on the fly. For certain parts of the drawing I INSERT other dwg files which of course become blocks. Once in the drawing the users are sometimes wanting to edit the drawings where the blocks are, which makes an explodeable block necessary. But since the drawings are not actually blocks until they are imported this is not an easy thing to resolve. The other thing to keep in mind is that this drawing process is completely automated. The user does not get a chance to interface with it until the drawing is complete. So asking the user to do something as the drawing is being created will not work.

I have this block called gate valve. The base point is at the middle of the block. When I use this block as a style and insert it in profile it always places itself down low on the pipe. As you can see the grip is way above the top of the block and I have to move it into place anytime I use one. If I change the pipe inverts the gate valve block style lowers itself once again and I have to move it up into place. I have changed the base of the block but it makes no difference.
This is how the structure look in the object viewer. Notice the one on the right is the block that needs to be raised, however in the viewer it shows placed correctly.
I have several script commands that insert items such as title blocks (xrefs) and page boundaries (blocks). The base point and INSBASE for all files are set to 0,0,0. However the blocks will occassionally come in at different positions. In some cases I can repeat the command multiple times and each time the same block will inset at a different position in the same drawing even though the insert point is set to 0,0,0.

I've been using the admittedly pieced together code in order to insert border blocks around a closed polyline. Yhe problem I'm having is that when the Block angle is say "zero" the block is inserted the same way both on top and below the polyline. Since the blocks surround the polyline the blocks on the downside should have an additional 180 degree rotation. How to deduct that the portion of the polyline is in a certain quadrant and adjust the insertion angle as necc? I 'm not sure thats even the best approach.

1. Attached is a file , when opened show two viewports. the plan view look OK , but the ortho on the right show a corridor not near elev. Of the the alignment and the surface is missing ( I cannot get to the object viewer to show me the model setting) .
Am I in big trouble and had to create a surface again?
2. The end of this corridor you have lines all over the place , I probably need to create a corridor surface , correct?
3. Why is the alignment so far from the corridor model?
I am using ACA 2009 and am experiencing something new with attributed blocks. When I insert the block, a copy of the block is placed at what seems to be an arbitrary distance away. As I fill in the boxes for each attribute, it appears in the image away from the insertion point. After I am done, the completed block appears filled out where it was inserted. I have never seen this before. Is there a setting affecting this?

I'm running AutoCAD LT 2011. As a test for myself when i first started using the program I created a block in which i have a rectangle and a linear stretch pair parameter attached to it, and a field attribute referencing the distance that the stretch parameter is stretched out to.
I'd like to know if its possible to set up a prompt when inserting the block into a drawing that allows me to type the desired distance of the stretch parameter and have the rectangle stretch to the entered distance as its inserted.
I'm trying to automate the process of simply inserting the block and then dragging the grips of the parameter out or updating the distance via the properties panel.
I have a VBA to insert a block I ask the user for an insertion point GETPOINT. Then I allow the user to select an angle. GETANGLE starting with the insertion point. If the user picks a point or enters a number there is no problem.
However if the user hits enter it crashes saying invalid input. What I want to happen that if enter happens it accepts it as an angle of 0.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a polyline which consists of straight lines and curves in 2D enviroment.
I want to extract some coordinates. I usually use block refferences and "dataextraction" command. However, the problem is as follows:
I need to mark many things along the polyline's way at no constant intervals (not possible to "measure" it) If I have "osnap" on, I can't hit the spots I like for obvious reasons. If I have "osnap" off, I can't place the object accurately on polyline's way.
So, what I need is: how to allign multiple blocks to a said polyline. Allignment needs to be done as accurate as possible, prefferably perpendicularly to closest tangent of polyline.
