Revit :: Unable To Edit Titleblock

Nov 12, 2013

My titleblock seems to be corrupted and I can't edit it.  I need to edit some text on it (highlighted), so when I am on the sheet view in the project I select the titleblock and click 'edit family.'
 
When I load it into the project I get this error. I would happily create a new titleblock, but I this is used in many places, so I need to edit this one. I tried to upload my Revit Error Report, but this forum is saying it is not a valid extension.

Revit :: Titleblock Templates

Sep 9, 2011

I created a custom template family for a 36"x24" titleblock.  now, I need to create one for a 24"x18" template family.  My issue is, what is the easiest way to do this? 

I cannot copy and paste content from one family to another for some reason (unless I am doing something wrong).  I was thinking the easiest way is to copy the family, rename it and move the content around so that it becomes a 24"x18" template - BUT - does this affect how it plots?

Revit :: Titleblock CAD Importing

Jan 16, 2013

I have Revit 2012.  Trying to import a titleblock from Architectural Desktop 2006.  When I follow the User Guide guidelines I get to step 3 and then this message:
 
"Import Geometry Not VisibleThe import geometry will not be visible in the view using the current settings.The origin of the import will be centered on the origin of the model instead. You can view the import in any view where its geometry is within the extents." The ZF command only opens up the Import CAD formats window. The original titleblock is in modelspace of the dwg file.

Revit :: Print Area Larger Than Titleblock?

Sep 26, 2013

Is there a way to print an area larger than my titleblock, so that I can include the border defining the edge of the paper in the final printed pdf?
 
My workflow requires me to open the pdf in illustrator and make adjustments before a final print.  I need the boundary printed so that I can scale the drawing inside illustrator back up to proper size.
 
Maybe I need to make a custom titleblock with a larger boundary?

Revit :: Adding Consultant Parameters To A Titleblock?

Feb 10, 2014

I want to add parameters to my projects for consultants (type, name, company name, address, etc.) in a way that isn't deleted by updating a titleblock.
 
Currently my consultants are just text objects in the titleblock family that are not saved back to a default titleblock.  If I reload the titleblock they get replaced by whatever default text was part of the default titleblock.  I also have different titleblocks for different sheet types within the project, for example cover sheet, sheet, sketch, etc.  
 
What I want is for this information to be part of the Project Information so I can make changes there without editing the titleblock family.  I want them to function like the parameters for Client Name, Project Address, etc. and catagorize them in some generic way like Consultant A, Consultant B, etc. because not every project will have civil engineer or sprinkler designer.  
 
I got as far as trying to create a lable in my titleblock family but when I tried to add a Category Parameter for the first lable, let's call it Consultant A Type, I get a mostly grayed out Parameter Properties dialog where the only clickable option is to select a Parameter Type, all of which are grouped under IFC Propertires and non of which seem to apply.  There's no Project Information group.  How do I create these lables and parameters?

Revit :: Project Parameter And Label On Titleblock

Jan 6, 2014

I created a project parameter (in order to group my sheets with my custom system) and I'd like to create a label on my titleblock that's the ability to show this project parameter atomatically.
 
I reckon it has something to do with shared parameters but how to use them.

Revit :: Create Titleblock Family That Has Image Or DWG Of Site?

May 21, 2012

I'm trying to create a titleblock family that has an image or dwg of my site. The easy way to do this is save a new family and import a cad file or jpg of the site plan.
 
However, I'd like to avoid creating a new titleblock family for each project with a new imported site image.
 
I thought I would be able to just make the image's "Loaded from file" address an editable field that could be updated in the project info like all the other parameters, but it doesn't seem to be possible.

Revit :: Auto Changing Scale Rule In Titleblock

Apr 9, 2013

I'm trying to add a scale ruler to a title block and I would like it to change automatically with the scale of the views placed on the sheet. Is this even passable? I have attached a picture of the scale rule, I have made it as a symbol and the numbers are the only thing that change between the types.

3ds Max :: Unable To Edit Vertices In Edit Poly Mode

Apr 2, 2012

I was trying to play around with the software to get to know it, and... well, I think I made something weird in it. Everything was flowing nicely when I was following the tutorial about Editing Objects: I created a box, I selected that edit poly option from the modify tab and I could edit vertices totally nicely.

But then, I really don't know what happened, but, I don't know exactly when, I suddenly could not move the vertices AT ALL. They are pretty visible, but when I select them, they turn red and the axis are not editable! I'm so confused! I can edit the axis very normally if I'm using an option like Select and Move but... With the edit poly thing I just cannot! I tried everything I thought of: Made a new box, restarted the program, restarted the PC! But NOTHING worked.

EDIT: It took me almost an hour to figure out I wasn’t selecting the Select and Move tool!

Lightroom :: Unable To Edit In CS4 From 3.6?

Feb 1, 2012

my "Edit in Photoshop" option no longer works for RAW images. Photoshop pops up, but the image doesn't, no prompt or anything, just an empty workspace. The process still works for .psds or jpegs (I can "edit in PS" from LR)
 
I mistakenly downloaded the latest version of LR 3.6 without reading the fine print (stupid, right?) - apparently Camera Raw 6.6 is not compatible with earlier versions of PS than CS5, but LR 3.6 needs CR 6.6. I guess I made the mistake of assuming that CS4 wasn't so old that Adobe would come out with a Camera Raw update that wasn't compatible with it. So I've got to assume this is my problem and I'm just a bit irritated. Is my CS4 seriously that outdated?
 
Would you recommend that I revert to an earlier version of LR and CR and stick with my CS4, or just bite the bullet and get the updated CS5 (I really didn't want to spend the cash at the moment). Or am I wrong about the Camera Raw 6.6 issue and is there another reason I can't move my images into PS?

Paint Shop Pro :: Unable To Edit Layer In X6?

Dec 2, 2013

I've come across an issue using X6 I haven't seen before. After working on a multi-layer pspimage file, saving it and reloading I can no longer edit one of the raster layers. When the layer is selected with the pick tool it shows the circle with line when mousing over. It was not merged or locked so not sure what's causing this and never came across this with any of the previous PSP versions I've used.

PSP X6 16.1.0.48

UPDATE: Tried making sure it was the top layer and still could not edit the layer. I then made all the other layers invisible and at that point it would allow editing the image. Is there some hidden feature in X6 I'm missing or is this a quirk?

VideoStudio :: Unable To Edit MPG4 Video

Oct 16, 2011

I have VideoStudio XS4 Pro and it freezes when I try to edit a MPG4 video. The source video is from the Flip video player. I have been able to edit these without any problems before. This time when I put the video in the edit window I can start to play it, but then the UI stops working. It beeps when I try to press any button.

I'm using Windows 7. (see my machine profile) I have applied latest updates.

Project properties:

NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps)
MPEG files
24 bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps
Upper Field First
(DVD-NTSC), 16:9
Video data rate: Variable (Max. 8000 kbps)
LPCM Audio, 48000 Hz, Stereo

At this point the software is unusable.

VideoStudio :: Unable To Edit Anything Without Audio Skipping Pro X3

Jul 25, 2011

have been looking at various posts regarding audio skipping but am clueless as to how to repair or use this program successfully. I am able to import a simple mp2 file off a DVD (VOB), scan into scenes and usually play it in the timeline without skipping. I can play an mpg clip/scene, at least once, without skipping. Any kind of editing of any file results in skipping. Whether I save as a project or not, it skips. If I export, it skips. With or without Smart Proxy, it skips. With or without SP2 (after a clean reinstall) it skips. I have been editing for at least 7 years with various programs, but this is truly a first. I am really hesitant to upgrade to X4 as a fix, fully expecting it will be more of the same.

I want to clarify something. I listened very closely with a friend and concluded it is not exactly skipping. It is truncated repeating of a word in close succession, so you will hear a word immediately followed by the same word repeated but partly cut off.

Photoshop :: Unable To Edit Text In A Template

Apr 17, 2008

editing the text in a web page template that I downloaded from a free template web site. The page is .psd file, I opened it in photoshop ver 6, went on to those layers which are having text. the layers clearly denotes T , I double clicked on T but as per tutorial I read on a web site, the text is not highlighted or selected, instead the blinking cursor comes over that text and when i try to write something it overwrite the new text over the previous one and previous text is as it is as its before.

I also tried to edit the text by going on vertical tool bar, clicking the T button, and then double clicking on the required text but it also doesnt work. After going through couple of tutorial websites and reading it, I came to know that text layer might be rasterized, I checked in the main menu, the layer is not rasterized and clearly show the letter T.

Photoshop :: Unable To Edit Copied Layers In CS

Aug 4, 2004

I'm having an issue with editing layers copied from one file to another in Photoshop CS. It seems to be essentially locking the layers and I can't figure out how to unlock them. I've tried duplicating them, renaming them, and resetting my tool preferences (I'm desparate and frustrated). They are in the same mode. This also tends to be an issue with opening a .jpg or .gif file and trying to edit it.

it seems the issue was my computer had the user permissions set for read/write only. Once I changed it so that all users had all permissions I was able to edit it.

Photoshop :: Unable To Edit The Background Layer

Oct 4, 2008

I've opened a photograph in CS3 (whereas the photograph is the background layer), and subsequently tried to use any of the tools (clone, eraser, etc) for editing with no success. Everything appears to be working properly with the tool bars, but when you click on the image to use it, nothing happens.

I thought maybe it was an issue with the layer being locked, but I've tried copying/pasting the image as a new layer in a new file (layer is unlocked at that point), but it still doesn't work.

GIMP :: Unable To Edit Layers Outside The Canvas

Jun 9, 2013

why are we not able to edit layers outside the canvas?

I often create images were the canvas size is fixed (e.g. display resolution). I then add layers to it that are often larger than the canvas. I would now want to select the superfluous parts of the just added images (e.g. to make them transparent), but I can't select parts of the layers that are not on canvas!

I also can not see any layer content that is off-canvas. A workflow I'd prefer would be copy everything somewhere (not necessarily inside the canvas) and then align it layer by layer, which is hard when one can not see the content of the off-canvas layers.

GIMP :: Unable To Edit Default Text

Sep 5, 2012

I use 2.8.2. I have some words on a picture, in a text layer. I didn't make anything with the text, it is pure text. I want to edit it. I open the layer and click on the text. As soon as I click, I get a new text field, and if I write something, a new text-layer opens. The old one is untouchable. What can I do?

Here is a screenshot:
