Revit :: DB Link Inconsistent Values?

Sep 18, 2013

ive recently started to work with DBLink and access 2013 to make take offs mainly. Today i made a small project to test some ideas and found an inconsistency between the material areas and the area of the element, a wall in this case, to which the material is apllied. I think they should be the same, or at least very close, but that´s not the case when i export to access. I've attached a image with a material takeoff schedule from revit and the correspondent query from access (element type name, element area, material name, material area, material volume, material area/element area). The revit one seems correct, but in access the material area values are very different. Initially i thought it would be due to units difference, like the material area were in sq cm and the element area in sq m, but the relationship between them isn´t 10, as you can see in the calculated value. Then i added the material volume to the schedule and query and the results on access are even more strange, i can´t even imagine where this values came from.

I´m using revit architecture 2012

Photoshop :: Inconsistent Tonal Values Across

Jul 12, 2008

The input tonal value is 70% of a CMYK primitive color, e.g. cyan, using Photoshop's color picker.

For measuring the tonal values and differences, switch the info palette to CMYK and 32-bit mode. It's also possible to see the differences in HSB and Lab mode (depends on selected CYMK color profile).

Measured values of filled layers using different Photoshop functions: .....

Illustrator :: Inconsistent Values In Info And Transform Panel?

Dec 15, 2013

What circumstances would cause inconsistent values for Width and Height to be shown in the Info Panel vs the Transform Panelin AI CS6?  For instance,  I have a vector object selected and the Transform Panel has "80 in" for the width value and the Info Panel shows "96.8654 in".  Height is likewise screwy.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Open Inconsistent Assembly Takes Long Time To Show Unresolved Link Dialog

Oct 20, 2011

We have a data folder on the server mapped as network drive to the clients. The data folder contains all cad data stored from productstream professional.

Due to an over 10 year old environment the data folder contains a huge amount of cad files, library parts, iParts and so on.

Due to historical growth of the environment there are some missing parts (not available on the file system anymore), because they were deleted, are corrupt, and so on. At the root of the data folder there is located the typical cmpinv11.ipj inventor project file.

If you open an assembly either from productstream or via inventor (without productstream) directly from the data folder and the assembly has an unresolved child component because the file isn't there anymore it takes a very very long time until the dialog box for unresolved link comes up (waiting time several minutes 1...10min). Once reached this point one can skip and repair the assembly, of course.

But the question is, how to speed up the time for getting the unresolved link dialog?

The network connection itself is quite OK und the project file itself is also OK. The project file list of every user is pretty small (only cmpinv11.ipj and some standard ipj's).

We think inventor internally scans the whole project-file folders to ensure that the component is really missing but due to the huge environment this takes many minutes and is annoying.

Any bypass for that? Is it possible to apply a temporär setting before opening a potential inconsistent assembly? Or is there a setting like skip unresolved components by default or by a defined timeout?

Because it is Inventor 2010 (Productstream PRO 210) there is no File open Option Auto-Skip unresolved components (like in 2012) but even if it was I guess it wouldn't reduce the time to get the dialog either.

Revit :: Conditional Statement To Insert Door Offset / Inconsistent Units

Jan 16, 2013

Is it possible to read the current wall thickness of a door's host and use that dimension in a conditional statement to locate the frame's setback?
 
If the wall is deeper than the frame I want the door flush with the wall, if the frame is deeper than the wall, I want the door centered.
 
I set up a Wall Width paramenter in my door family but I keep getting the "Inconsistent units" error message.

Revit :: Filter Parameter Values ​​which Are Only Applicable?

Oct 22, 2013

I'm wondering if it is possible to filter/show only parameter values which are only applicable to that parameter. So no parameter values belonging to other parameters in a family. This to avoid that users are selecting wrong values. For example a door with several text parameters. See also the screendump.

Revit :: Why No Values Where Calculated For Field Material As Paint

Material takeoff: As paint and other related calculations
 
I’m wondering why no values where calculated for the field “Material: as paint”! As for the “area” and “volume” calculation, they sound to be false, for example, the area of plaster board should be 0.02*1.84 but not 0.32*1.84! What might be false there?

Revit :: Room Tags Don't Link In?

Apr 30, 2010

An architect sent me his revit file, it contains the full model and all the floor plan views and drawing sheets. He has floor plan views set up for each floor and some enlarged views as well. On each floor plan view each room has a tag that contains room name and room number and every door has a tag that contains the door number.

When I create a new file and link in his file so I can then start working, doing what we need to do, adding devices, etc. The problem is, the architect's room tags and door tags dont link in, and if they do I cant see them. I've gone through every possible combination in the visibility/graphics options to no avail.

Room and door info linking in should be a basic function of revit; how could autodesk expect mech, elec, plumbing engineers to create drawings that have zero room and door info?

If it matters, I'm working in Revit 2010.

Revit :: Link Models Together On Blank Model

Jun 11, 2013

We are new to Revit, and have done a couple of projects in Revit. We have separate models for arch, mech and elect (no struct, this is done outside our office). We currently link models to each other as needed, the architect will link mech and elec.  The mech eng. will link arch and elec and so on. Mention the use of a blank model onto which you link all models. I never got a chance to ask the individual how they use it or how it would benefit the process.

Revit :: Using Nested Family To Create Material Link

Oct 24, 2011

I assigned my students to create lighting fixture family.  I wanted them to create a drop-down list of materials within the family to allow a user to select from the list of materials.  This is accomplished by using a nested family - the inserted family has the materials defined.  The drop-down list appears just fine in the properties, but we aren't able to apply it to the extrusion.  I have tried inserting each family type and using the Label parameter, but Revit won't allow the link.

AutoCAD .NET :: Inconsistent Layout Renaming

Oct 23, 2013

I have written this code to check the name of the layouts and determine if the are to our company standard or not and if they are close enough to determine what they should be rename them. I create a drawing with severl differant layout names to test the code but I am getting inconsistent results. The drawing I created has 9 layouts named M2_03, M2_04, m3_01, m3_02, tm01_25, tm2.05, tm2.06a, TM2_01, and TM2_02A. It seems to be crashing on the tm2.06a but I can not figure out why.
 
Public Class StandFix <Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.CommandMethod("StandFix")> _ Public Sub StandardFixer() Dim ErrString As String = "" ErrString = ErrString & StandardizeLayoutNames() MsgBox(ErrString, MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Non-Standard Entities Found") End Sub
[Code] ....

why sometimes it work and checks all the layouts, but most of the time it only does some of the layouts.

Photoshop :: Inconsistent Color Render

Oct 21, 2005

I have PS 7.0, and an optimized-for-graphics monitor that's less than a year old.

I've noticed that when creating a graphic, the color I use during development changes to a darker shade when I go to save it. And the darker shade is saved rather than the original shade that I intended.

For instance, I created an image using #222222 for background, which is a very dark gray. And when it comes up in the 'Save for web...' dialog, it's much darker, almost #000000.

Is there a setting somewhere that will fix this?
