Revit :: How To Change The Numerical Value Of A Dimension

Mar 29, 2013

I was wandering while doing a project of some construction elements if there is any way in Revit that I can change the numerical value of an dimension not with the text but with different value ? and at the same time I don't want Revit to rescale my elements. Something like in AutoCAD that I can type in any number I want and Revit won't rescale i or change the distance between them.
 
I know that I could simply use AutoCAD instead of Revit but I find it easier in general  and I really want to learn it since I'm a student.

Revit :: Family Will Not Change Type After Load

Feb 21, 2012

I'm going through a tutorial on families (Paul Aubin) and have created a shelf w/ nested brackets that works as expected when flexed in the family editor.  Any project I load it into shows it at its default configuration, but when I select it in the project and change it's type in the properties box, the configuration does not flex - it stays as inserted.  It also shows my parameters in the properties box as individually modifiable.

Revit :: How To Change Type Of Curtain Wall System

Oct 6, 2011

I am having a problem with creating a curtain wall system. After selecting my mass surfaces and choosing "create system" I am unable to change the type of curtain wall system. It just comes up with a regular grid system on the mass, where as before I was able to choose triangles, rhomboids etc under the properties tab. Now however I see nothing except for the current curtain system and recently used files.

I have also created a custom panel which I want to insert into my project but am unable to do so? I have tried loading it into the project, however because of the above problem I am not able to change it to my custom panel system.

AutoCAD .NET :: Custom Dimension Of Coordinate String

May 26, 2013

I want to custom dimensions about text of the coordinate in DWG. It should be like this:

I select a point then there displays a string of X,Y,Z coordinate of the point.

I select the second point to place a horizontal line(fixed lenth base the string font size)  and then the string.

the whole process is like radialDimension,but what I need is to describe the point x,y,z.

and the drawing should consist of start point(actually is the target point too) and end point and the line connects the two points and a horizontal line and a string.

I think this should be completed using Dimension Class(should be CoordinateDimension based Dimension).

give me some codes. Codes is better in C# of VS2010 for autoCAD2010.

Actually there is a simple solution for this. Using c# to draw two lines and a string. But this is really bad experience when I want to move the string.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: PGP String / Alias Errors - Bad Argument Type

Oct 29, 2012

I have been working in Civil 3D 2013 for about two weeks and everything was going smooth until I got a fatal error message while trying to rotate a basic rectangle. When I reloaded AutoCAD Civil 3D my command line displayed the following error message:  "AutoCAD menu utilities loaded.; error: bad argument type: input-streamp: nil”. My drawing loaded normally but when I tried to draw a line using L+Enter I got a note saying “Command: L Unknown command "L".  Press F1 for help.” Now none of my aliases work and when I go to Express -> Tools -> Command Alias Editor from the menu bar, I get the windows that are on the attatched screen shot. The PGP files wont work and importing aliases gives me the top right box on the attatched image. I have tried adding a Support File Search Path from the options menu and that too has failed.

Revit :: Remove Unwanted Dimensions From String

Dec 19, 2011

Is there anyway to create a dimension string and then remove individual dimensions from it, while still keeping it as a contiguous string?
 
I ask, because in our office we dimension from finish face to finish face.  I would like to run a single dimension string, but when I create a face-to-face dimension string it also dimensions the thickness of the walls.  I just want to see the room dimensions, not the wall dimensions, but I can't figure out how to remove the wall dimensions while still keeping the others.
 
Furthermore, if this is possible, can I still use the equality constraint?  I don't want to see wall dimensions, but would still like to be able to make all of my rooms equal.

Illustrator :: How To Change Type Insertion Point Vs Type Tool Cursor Position

Feb 11, 2014

I'm using AI CC now, but I noticed this problem in earlier versions of AI: If I want to place a one-word label on an illustration I move the type insertion cursor to a speific point on the screen image and click, but then the flashing insertion point, where the label will actually start, pops up elsewhere, usually a line or two above where the cursor was, and a pica or two to the left, forcing me to type the label, then move it into position rather than simply typing it in the right place and moving on. The problem is merely annoying, but I'd like to fix it. It's probably a matter of ignorance-I simply haven't read the right documentation, but I don't know what to call the problem. Where can I find out how to change the position of the cursor relative to the insertion point?

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 :: Styles - Select Dimension Type For Whole Drawing

Jan 19, 2012

We have created one Style, but within this Style are two Dimension types (Dual and SIngle)

When a drawing from a model is created it defaults to the Dual Option and we can only select the Single Dimensions by individually selecting the Dimension and editing to Single Dimension, which can be time consuming.

Is there a way to select the Dimension type for the whole drawing?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Creating Parts With Costs That Change With Dimension Change For BOM

Nov 16, 2011

How do I create an Inventor part with a cost that will update according to the part dimensions changing. For example, we design products using aluminum extrusions and our cost is determined by foot length. How can I create the extrusion part to have a per foot cost that will dynamically update when I change the parts length for an assembly? It seems to me to be a fundamental need for many industries.

I will happily take any links to information that will explain this process. I cannot find anything online that clearly explains the process of creating parts with costs and variables.

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!

Revit :: How To Dimension Imported 3D File

Jun 26, 2013

 I'm designing a piece of furniture in Rhino using Grasshopper.  I would like to create my measured drawings of this piece in Revit (as a way of learning the software).  I have linked the 5 components of the piece to my Revit project file (as SAT files but I could export them as something else if that would work).  All I want to do is create a single sheet showing 1 plan view, 2 elevations, 1 section and an exploded axon.  However, I cannot seem to dimension the components.  I need overall dimensions as well as the size of radii at curved corners in elevation and filleted corners in plan, and also thickness of the material used.
 
Is there something I need to do to get the dimensions to 'see' this set of objects?
