I had to uninstall the material library from my C drive. I have a dedicated SSD OS drive with very little extra space to spare.
Now that I need the material library again, when I try to install it, the installer still insists on using 1.2 GB on C.I've browsed for the new drive letter, and the little pop up window still shows it using no space on any other drive, and 1.2 on C.
installed 32bit AutoCAD Map 3D 2013?
My install fails at the AML 2013 - Low Rez and I can't install Map at all.
I don't think there is an option to no install the Material Library...
Here is my log file from a few minutes ago...

I am using Revit 2014 student version. I have an image in jpg and would like to add it to material library.
How do I do this?
I am using Revit 2013 and have built a material library for the company I work for. It has been working fine up until about an hour ago. Now when I try to open up the material library I created it says "No assets in this library". I can't figure out why there is nothing there. And I don't want to have to recreate all my materials I already created! I can still find the file in my folders and it says theres 3930 KB of information in the file. I included a picture of what my Assest Editor and Asset Browser show when I try to open my library.

I was making adjustments earlier today to the library and now when I open it nothing shows up. It claims there is nothing in my file but yet the file size is 58,118 kb. How to get it back without having to completely redo the whole library!?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Revit file with over 1,000 materials and associated appearance assets. It was created in a previous version of Revit before library support. What I want to do is create libraries from them. However, the only instructions to add them one at a time using dragging and dropping. That will take me days to do. Is there a way to simply create an asset or material library out of multiple materials from a project file at one time without having to individually select them?

Any solution without remapping the xref when change the drive letter?
I am using Windows Vista and Lightroom 3.The drive letter for my external hard drive has changed from "J" to "L". I changed my import preset to "L", so I can now import and access new files. However, all of my previous imports are on this elusive "J" drive, which no longer exists. When I open J from the folders list in Lightroom it shows all my folders with the dreaded giant "?". I have tried to synchronize these folders by right clicking to "merge folders". This did not work. I can open all of these files from my back up folder, but I can't do anything with them in Lightroom. Half of my catalog is un usable.
View 17 Replies View RelatedI have LR 5.2 and I move files off onto a removable drive as a back-up and it allows me to share the pictures with them when they sometimes lose them. Windows 7 routinely assigns the drive to the letter M:, N:, and sometime P: and apparently I cannot see the folders unless the drive is assigned the same letter as it was when I imported the pictures into the catalog. The folders don’t even show up in the library, but if I do an import all of the folders appear as valid destinations within LR. How can I fix this? The first picture is a screen shot of the library; notice that the year 2013 is missing. The second screen shot is what appears when I go to import; note that 2013 appears. The folders simply do not appear in LR except when I attempt import.
When I look at N: in my “working catalog” it shows it as having catalog “AUMC” but the folders in it belong to the part of my working catalog that I have moved to a different external drive since they’re old picture I don’t use much. They all have question marks, but they are resolved with I attach the external drive with those folders on it.
Is there a way to save the preview images for materials in a material library? I have a library of some SSS materials that take a while to render, and every time I open that library I have to wait them to render, what's very annoying. If there's no way, is there a way to at least disable the automatic rendering of all materials?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe studio I'm working is an early MAX 2012 adopter and, overall, I think it's better than 2011 but still not rock solid or bug-free. Let the hotfix-fest begin.
What I'm wondering is: why is it always prompting me if I want to save the changes made to the materials libraries I've opened (even if I haven't made a single change...) on exit, after the save file prompt?
This is getting ridiculously annoying since I sometimes open up 20-30 material libraries per scene and it asks ONCE PER EVERY LIBRARY (and can't seem to find an option to remove the prompt or "never ask again" tick)
Also, this happens with the simple/classic material browser (can't see why slate is so great...)
As the title says - How can I add a material to material library through Slate editor? I created the library and it appears as a tab to the right but how do I place my materials there? I tried dragging and dropping the node but that didn't work. I also tried right-clicking the node and searching there but nothing there either.

So what did my student do and where in the world did the Autodesk material library go?

I have uninstalled both CS2 and CS3 and I want to re-install just CS3.
However, when I insert the CD in the drive nothing happens on the screen. If I browse to the drive, it asks me to insert a CD! ;-(
The drive detects the CS2 no problem as well as any other CD I insert, but not the CS3 CD.
I have a user that has created a new material which is now sitting as a local style. We require this new material in the library so that everyone can use it. I tried RMB on it but the save to library functon is greyed out. This is due to the styles being read only in the project file. So I have tried to change the project file so we can add the style and then I'd change it back again, but, even though I have checked out the project file from vault, it won't allow me to edit it. What else can be locking the project file? Is there some other way I can place the new material into the style library in the project file? There are quite a few of us that use the project file since we use vault, so I'm not sure I should create a new one with the same name and save over it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have autocad 2013 and I used to have the material library downloaded and working fine. I recently installed revit 2014 and deleted all 2013 material library and downloaded the 2014 that came with Revit.
However, now autocad gives me an error saying the material library is not installed. Is there anyway to remap it so that it reads the 2014 library? I would rather not download the 2013 library if I don't have to, I use windows on a mac and my bootcamp partition is very tiny.

We have everything configured to our preferences but there is one thing that has been driving me batty. When editing a solid part I open the Style and Standard Editor. Down near the bottom under Realistic Appearance where there should be a ball with a shiney swatch there is a yellow triangle mocking me saying Autodesk Material Library is not available, also none of the bump maps are showing up on new or migrated files whether this is a related issue I am not sure of. All of the normal and custom textures show up just fine, and all the bump textures are in their correct folder in the correct place. I have tried switching the design data folder around with no success.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working in 2013 right now. My project loads two material libraries, and I am finding that if the Autodesk Material Library is selected in the dropdown, and I try to set the material to something in my Custom library, it fails. If I first select my custom library to make it the active one, then my code works fine.
So my question is, how do I set my custom library to be the active one, or better yet, so that it will look through both library's and pick the material from the library that has it.?
I have my own library, Inteco Material Library, created with a material 'perforatie'.
Now I have a flat part and made a sketch with another rectangle. I have used the Split tool so I create a separate area that I can select.
If I select that area and I go to my own library I can not select my own made material. I have the material in the Inventor Material Library installed but I can not select it.
I have recently started playing with the new materials and appearances browsers - what a nightmare.
So I created a custom library as described in the "Materials and Appearances" whitepaper from Autodesk.
Bottom left corner of material browser > create new material
> edit material: change its name, density etc
Why can I not add it to the new custom library - from document materials?I tried to drag and drop - no success.
I tried to right click > add to > xxx material library - no success.It does however let me drag and drop to the "favorites".
Inventor Professional 2014.

is it possible to group the material in the library?
ex: alum will have 1/8 thk flat bar etc, 2x2 alum angle...and so on.
