Photoshop :: Set A Default 3D Style In CS6
Mar 25, 2013
I am working on numerous 3D renders at the moment, all will have the same lighting, colours, focal length / DOF, position etc. The only thing that will change is the 3D object itself (vector smart object text with an icon).
Now, when I have finished rendering one, save it then want to change the image in the smart object (edit source), save to update - this will not update the 3D layer! Ideally this is the workflow I would like to use, but it just won't work. I now have to replicate all the settings on a new 3D extrusion from a layer...
Is there a way to set it so when I do create a new extrusion from a layer, it would default to the used settings?Or can I fix it so the smart object actually updates?

I am trying to change the default label styles for AddSegmentLabel under general styles using .NET...
Dim X As Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel = CD.Settings.GetSettings(Of Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel)()
X.Styles.LineLabel.Value = strChildStyleName ... says name does not exist
or
X.Styles.LineLabelStyleId.Value = oidChildStyle ... "The type of objectId is wrong"
If I manually change it to a child style and then check the values, they are the same as what I'm trying to set them to. If you use a "parent" style then these both work. Am I doing something wrong or this another limitation?

How do you change the default text style (when creating a text object) in 3dsmax ?
Here is the scoop, I have successfully created attributed 3d objects in Autocad, exploded & convereted the attributes to text objects instantly via coding, then wblocking the text objects, importing them into 3dsmax via the Autocad Legacy importer with the group according to object selected, then in one shot coverted that group to an editable mesh (thus giving me filled in text).
It all works perfectly including text with thickness's, it retains itself as text objects in 3d studio and does not seem to overbloat the 3dsmax file (I typically have about 200 to 250 lines of text per job), this if for commercial interior design where I have many signs and walls with textual information that are the same sign but with different sayings, and also a few incremantal numbered stuff, so much easier to fill in in Autocad, some automatically via coding most as already mad blocks, then it is to do it TWICE, one for the cad drawings, then again for the the renderings.
Anyways, what happens is, the text comes in always ARIAL style, this is what I want to change, things I have tried so far:
1. Drew a text object in 3dsmax before importing, changing the text style to what I want, I said, this has to work, becasue when you go back to the create text dialogue in 3dsmax, the last style used remains as the new default. Imported the cad file, NOPE, Arial again.
2. Then I thought, maybe the actual style name in Autocad was teh problem, so I then renamed the style in autocad the to EXACT name of the Windows font file. Thats it, had to work, NOPE, Arial again.
3. Fruitlessly look in the 3dsmax options dialogue box, no default text style.
4. Tried to figure out how in the world I can select TWO text objects in 3dsmax and get the modify text modify panel so I can change more then one at a time, I dont know how to do that or if it even can be done.
What I need to know is if there is some sort of configuration file that I can edit that will allow me to change the default text style, I find it hard to believe that the word 'Arial' is hard-coded into the 3dsmax software or the Legacy Autocad importer, what if you didn't have that font on your computer ??
I will not have a problem changing that file for each font style I want to import, I will simply in Autocad split apart the different font styles to different layers, then change whatever I need to in 3dsmax then import each group of styles one at a time, no problem. I have already done 3 projects with my system, changing 200 or so text styles in 3dsmax one at a time, this has to end !

If I make a3d part, turn on the sky-background and illuminationand render the part AutoCAD does something odd. It defaults to perspective view and activates sky-background andillumination every time I save, or switch from a layout tab to model space. How doI get it to default to parallel view and 2d wireframe?

My questions is how to prevent the following from happening. I created a layer style drop shadow in a .psd file with the below parameters.
I saved it as an .asl file that I could use later. When I loaded it into a different .psd file later that day some parameters stayed the same but the angle reverted back to 30 degrees from 120 degrees all on its own as shown below.
I just want to know how to keep layer style parameters I saved in an .asl file from reverting back to defaults when loaded in to a new .psd file.
My systems parameters are as follows:
Photoshop CS6 Extend Version 13.0 x64
Mac OSX 10.8.2 with 705.44 GB used out of 749.3 GB available
The only other software I am running is Safari web browser. This is my first time trying to save a layer style and use it in a different .psd file other than the one I created it in.

I am using Inventor version 2011. I wrote this code which tells me which object defaults style is active
Public Sub ActiveObjectDefaults()
Dim oDocument As DrawingDocument
Set oDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim DrgStMgr As DrawingStylesManager
Set DrgStMgr = oDocument.StylesManager
Dim ObjDfStyle As Style
Set ObjDfStyle = DrgStMgr.ActiveStandardStyle.ActiveObjectDefaults
MsgBox ObjDfStyle.Name
End Sub
Is it possible to change Active Object Defaults Style by VBA code (see picture below)?
I am trying to change Object Defaults in order to temporarily switch style which use layers with different line weights, and than switch it back. I am new to VBA so I am not sure if I am not trying to do something what is impossible.

We own Civil 3d 2010 and are using the Map workspaces.
It seems Map is hard-coded to use the table style 'Legend' when inserting a legend table, yet you can modify the table style of the legend table after it has been inserted.
Is there a way to change the default table style from 'Legend' to something else?

I am fed up with constantly changing the colour, justification, font and font size of text in sketches in the part environment. The text style drop down box is greyed out in the part environment so i can't set up a style and just change it.
Where i need to go to change what the default-iso style defaults to? Any registry key change i can use to make the test style drop down box available in the part sketch environment?

Civil 3D 2011, updates installed - I have a user who is manually importing points into his drawing. He has set the default label style in his command settings to a specific style, but no matter what he does the points come in with the previously set default style (the out-of-the-box label style). We've tested this in a new drawing with the same results. We've tested this on several computers with the same results.
My initial thought was that something on the network was holding this setting somehow. We disconnected his computer from the network with the same results.
What could be causing this label style to stick?

Any way to automatically substitute a default plot style table when it is set to ‘None’ in existing drawings?
[URL]
I applied a default plot style table in the ‘Options > Plot and Publish > Plot Style Table Settings’ dialog box, but it doesn’t seem to take effect for existing drawings or when I create new drawings.
[URL]
My goal is that when I open a drawing where the plot style table is set to ‘None’ it will instead apply my default CTB file.

So I noticed that my data reffed pipes were reverting back to their default styles in my production drawings. This wasn't a problem with SP1. I made a support call to our reseller and they mentioned that the only work around was to completely uninstall Civil3d, then reinstall back to SP1. He mentioned that he was passing the information on to Autodesk and he would let me know if they had a fix. Naturally that kind of timing or solution doesn't really work for me. This problem will effect any drawing I have that has pipes in it.
I want to know what you have done to work around this? Is there a better solution than uninstalling Civil3d?

Can I apply a default style to points with a raw description not in the description key sets?
When I import survey points into the drawing my description keys will assign specifed styles (and therefore layers) to descriptions it recognises, and a default style (and layer) to ones it does not recognise.
Then if i change raw descriptions in the drawing I can "Apply description keys" and have the styles and layers change based on the changes I made to the raw description. This is fine for descriptions in the key set.
Can I get Civil3D to apply the default style to points that did have a description that is in the DKS but has now been changed to one that is not? As it works for me now, these points remain unchanged in there layer and style.

We have, as our standard library default dimension style, a 1/32 fractional style, called "1/32-FRACTION". Various Object Types, like Linear Dimension are set to this Object Style. When I create a drawing, then these Object Defaults are in effect.
This means that, doing nothing while executing a dimension command, I get fractional dimensions by default. This works good.
However, sometimes I want to create a drawing where the default dimension style is "X.XXX-DECIMAL" without changing the Object Defaults found in the style library. I've tried to make the changes from within the style library and then save this as a template. However, when I try to make a drawing based on this template, Inventor states that the styles in the template differ from the styles in the library" and then busily goes about undoing what I careful did.
So I'm hoping there is something in the API I can call on to do this with a macro. Is it possible to write a macro that after you start a drawing, flips all the various Object Styles from "1/32-FRACTION" to "X.XXX-DECIMAL"?

Is there a way to programatically set a visual style before a drawing actually opens?
We have some huge models and people seem to forget to change their visual styles back to 2D wireframe before saving and exiting drawings. Some models will crash on some workstations when trying to open in a rendered mode.
I found a lisp with a function that looked to set viewport visual styles. But it does not seem to be supported anymore. --> (vla-put-VisualStyle vport 1)

C3D 2013. We have profile line labels, some of which get manually edited (for example, change the "<[Tangent grade(FP|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|SD|OF)]>" to a static number such as 0.29%).
However, if you CTRL+Click and select one of these labels and change the style of that one label, then the manual edits are lost and the label reverts back to the default string.
Is there any way to turn this behavior off?

How to set a default point style for point groups? Whenever I import survey points, I always put them into their own point group, so I can display each day's worth of survey data differently. For some reason, the point style always defaults to a certain style (our control point symbol). I'd like it to default to Basic, so I don't have to change this every time. Is it a template drawing setting somewhere?

I have recorded an action to create a transparent image on a batch of photos. Next I ran the image processor using the File/Scripts/image processor. When running the action the error message occurs no matter how many ways I attempt to modify the action. Error: The object "Style "Shape Style"" is not currently available.
I then look in the action window to check and under the steps Make Fill Layer: Style: Shape, Style 1 appears but I can't delete it. This one error message makes it impossible for me to image process a batch of photos with a watermark on them.
