how to add some comment to each photo i have under folder ? my idea is to have one file (photo_name,photo_comment) and read entry by entry from the file and put the text via text tool to photo. is there file-reading support under CS2 ?
or if someone has another idea how to quick add comment (i mean no EXIF) to over 500 photos ?
we are updating fron LDD 2004 to Civil 3D 2012 needles to say it a huge change. I've got my template almost done I'm just having one problem. With LDD any point that came in with a raw descripitoin not within the description key it would be placed in the current layer with point number, descripton and elevation. How do I make that happen with Civil3D do I have to change my default lable settings? When I import points with a raw description not within my description key it places the point on Layer 0 and only shows the node no point number.
It seems that trying to print a photo with Description and Labels being checked in the Output section will not happen. why this function will not work in my recent upgrade to CS5 (version 12.0 x64)?
I work at a newspaper and I use the IPTC section in file info all the time. After upgrading to CS6, nearly half of the time time the information I put in disappears after I save the photo. I use a Nikon D7000 and my OS is Microsoft Windows 7.
I freelance for a newspaper and need to enter cutline info before I send image to them. I'm wanting to be able to print an individual photo with the IPTC info with the photo, especially the Description field so I can proof the info before I send, then keep the page in a file for reference. I have CS3 with Photoshop and Bridge and also have Lightroom 1.3.
I want to implement the following Key SAN10L....I have tried many codes to accomplish this: SAN*L, SAN##L, SAN?L. The 10 in the code represents a number from 1-99. The "L" is alphabetic. I want to use the survey database to create linework. I have everything setup, but cant get the code to work to generate the linework.
I'm trying to make a description key set for our surveyors and am running into a problem with one description. For an iron rod they will use the description CH*IR 3/8 W/CAP. I cannot get the point to come in using the right point and label styles.
I know the default Description Key Sets can be set in the Properties. If I set the order in our template drawing this does not seem to hold when a new drawing is started with the template. How can I set the default description key for when a new dwg is created from the template?
I've built a strip sheet to print. 4 strips with 4 versions (VIRTUAL COPIES) of the same image with different exposures.
I remember in the Print Module, you can add text. in this case I'd like to add the exposure (manually is fine) Example: NORMAL +1/3 +2/3 +1
So, this is a virtual copy problem.
It wont allow me to add the text to DESCRIPTION, Also, Under: Title, I can add say NORMAL, but that is the same for each image. Can't be individually labeled?
Is there anyway to label, title, description, etc, a series of the same Virtual Copies.
For some reason in my base template for field work the "Disable Description Keys" option in Points Creation is set to "true"
How can make this default to "False" in my template. I've tried changing it and then saving the template again but it reverts to true all of the time. I have to select my points and do apply desc keys whenever I import points.
I am sure this is extremely simple to do but I am missing something. I am wanting to set the Description of a part in the Iproperties using values from the parameters. For instance, if the part has a length value of 10 and a width value of 5 I want the Description to say: 10 x 5 Floor Sheet
I cannot figure out how to extract the parameter values and place them into the iproperties. Here is what I have tried: iProperties.Value("Project", "Description")=" =<Length> x <Width> Floor Sheet"... This gives me the following result in my description: x Floor Sheet
I am making a directory full of the blocks we will use for the description key file to use. My understanding is that all of these blocks (manholes, hydrants, trees...etc) should be on layer "0" and of standard size. Manholes should be about 3' in diameter, transformer pads around 4' square....etc. Essentially, 1 = 1 true scale.
I currently use Leica Viva Smartworks for surveying and it captures the linework codes in its own field, so when I export my CSV file my Descrition comes on with the feature code but the linework code is another field. Is their a way that using the Format field in the description Key that I can get the Full description field to read something like "V-DOMW-PIPE B", which would pull the feature code from the raw descrition field and the begin line code from the Linework field.
I have to draft a lot of existing lots and easements from legal descriptions and recorded map documents. Does Civil 3D have an option to enter metes and bounds (bearing and distances into a table format and then "autodraft" from the entries in that table?
I would like my parameters to show in Description tab in BOM. Although I marked the for export I only see them in iprop.
How can use them in the create expression in BOM and add them to the part list later.Right now I dontsee them if I want to creat an expressin in the BOM
Creating a format to keep a number following a code.
My code is BCCD#
My format is DFL CC $+
My result now is:
Raw Desc. BCCD1 B (Bottom of Concrete Ditch)
Full Desc. DFL B CC (Ditch Flow Line and Type)
I am attempting to create a key that will create the following full description from the raw description:
Raw Desc. BCCD1 B (Bottom of Concrete Ditch)
Full Desc. DFL1 CC B (Ditch Flow Line and Type)
The reason that I need to change the description is to comply with certain standard codes from an outside entity but I do not wish to change the filed coding that we use in house. I cannot seem to find a parameter that would allow me to keep the number behind the DFL descriptor
I have a custom iPart for a rectangular flat bar that's 100x10mm. The length is the custom field.
I would like the description in the BOM to append the length, e.g. 100x10 Flat bar-235mm. (This is so that I don't have to create a length column in the BOM just for this item).
I have tried 100x10 Flat bar - <length> but this gives an error.
In LDDT 2009, I was able to describe points like this: STK #32
But in Civil 3D 2013, whenever I use the # symbol, the description gets truncated. So, using the point description above, it will show up in Civil 3D 2013 as STK rather than STK #32.
Is this a setting or something that I can switch on so that the I can use symbols such as # and - in my point description?
We use a lot of Null Structures but then give them different descriptions. More often than not when I give them a description and then get out of the drawing, the next time I get back in it says "Null Structure" again. How can I keep the description the way I want it?
I know that "the right way" would be to have specific structures made for each of these items, but that doesn't seem to be a priority at my company..
We are using the linework coding to process our figures and the survey .txt file provided to me uses codes to begin lines with "+" & "-". For example, driveways are coded + DR1 for begin and - DR1 to end the line. The linework process works fine, its when I go to display the point in the description keys that are causing me problems. All the points that are in between the begin and end points display to the appropriate style because they are coded as DR*. The begin and end do not display correctly as the + & - isn't being recognized in the description key. I tried many alternate ways such as *DR*, + DR*, - DR*, with nothing working.
Is there a different format I need to be using? There are way to many points to go thru to move the + & - behind the code.
I have multiple dynamic blocks that I would like to add descriptions to. If I have a block in a tool palette, I can add a description by right clicking and selecting "Properties." But I would like to add a description that shows up in the Design Center as well.
Is there a way to do this without redefining the block? Exploding makes me lose all of my dynamic properties, and I'd hate to have to recreate them.
I'm using LT 2008, by the way, so I don't have ref edit or any of that other cool stuff.
How can I show the description (in this case, MUDSTONE) in a profile label? I've tried modifying the style but the description refuses to appear even though it is one of the available labels.
