We're teaming up with an Architectual firm on a project. They use Revit 2013, we use Civil 3d 2011. They will have to save back for us. Will we be able to incorporate their dwg's into our dwg's and vice versa. If so, will the 2 be compatible with any issues?
View 2 RepliesAre there any compatibility issues with Autoturn 6.0 (by transsoft) and civil 3D 2011. Our Traffic Engineering Division uses the Autoturn program for turning templates, etc.

C3D 2011- 32 bit
We currently use a Gestetner 3227 B/W printer as a system printer and have experienced consistent print problems while plotting CAD drawings. We now have the opportunity to try to avoid print problems with a new printer.
We currently have Autodesk Inventor 2011 software (but only use the Mechanical Desktop feature for 2D & 3D), a Widows XP operating system and print to 8-1/2 x 11 and 11x17 papers only.
1) Does Autodesk have a list of recommended or compatible "Printers" that I can be directed to?
2) Is there a specific question, feature or requirement that the office manager should ask about the printer to assure compatibility?
So far, when asked if the printers are Autocad compatible, the vendors claim that their printers "should be compatible" or that they need further details about the autodesk product without being able to specify the type of details they require.
Is it possible that i can save a revit 2013 drawing and open it in revit 2011 file?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there any reason to keep 2008 if you have a new copy of 2011? Any old features lost or old files types that can't be opened in 2011 that worked in 2008?
What's the best ways to make sure files edited and saved in 2011 can also be opened and fully edited by users of 2008?
Save as older version? Export as IFC? Something else?
We've recently done some work for an engineering firm, and have also recently upgraded to Civil 2013.
It turns out they are using Civil 2011, and obviously are unable to open our drawing. As far as I'm aware, they need a TIN surface and cogo points, but I'm unsure of how to provide them with this other than reproccessing the job on an older version of Civil.
I'm thinking that I might be able to export to LandXML to keep all my points and surface, and then just export to Autocad 2010 for the linework?
I received a 2013 dwg file and want to convert it to 2011. I am currently running C3D 2011. I used the DWG TrueView program and was able to convert the 2013 file to 2011, but none of the alignments, profiles or corridors converted over. How to convert a 2013 file to 2011 and get the alignments, profiles, corridors, etc., to convert over as well?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSee pic. Top pic is 2013 point cloud properties. bottom pic is 2011 point cloud properties. 2013 has a new 'point cloud adjust' option in properties.
Both drawings have same 'Lidar Classification' Style, but 2013 is all gray. I tried changing some fields inside the properties for 2013 under the point cloud adjust to no avail.
why this is like this and what I need to do to see the different colors for the different classifications.
I'm working as a contractor for a consulting firm and I'm inputting station points using alignments in to my c3d 2013 drawings.
The issue arises when people in the main office need to revise my drawings in their 2011 version of autocad and the station points come out as a surrounding the pline rectangle; a.k.a. crap-o-la.
I've tried saving the station points themselves (or the "alignment", that is) as a block and a wblock but when I input those in to their 2011 version the block comes in as an "OLE" and my lines are incased in a white rectangle and cannot be used further as part of the drawing.
Is there any other way to alignment make the transition from c3d to 2011 regular?
We have 2011 installed have customized some of the .XSL reports in ProgramDataAutodeskC3D 2011enuDataReportsxsl
After installing 2013, the %ReportDir% variable for 2011 is pointing to the 2013 install, where the reports have NOT been customized. So when you run a report in 2011, it is using the XSL files in the 2013 location.
So the long and the short of it is the 2013 install broke our 2011 custom reporting ability.how to control the %ReportDir% variable in 2011?

Is there any way to put the 2011 topobase and the 2011 ArcGIS plugin into 2012 or 2013? Seems such a shame just to lost all of that functionality.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm trying to do an assignment with Autodesk Inventor. We use Autodesk Inventor pro 2012. For some unknown reason EVERY time i download inventor 2012 pro the installation fails due to a corrupt file. So i thought (In desperation) i would downlaod the 2013 version and see if it would install. Lucky enough it all installed correctly. So i continue with my work on the 2013 edition, and when i go to save it it tells me, that i will not be able to use this file on previous versions. (Which i need to do). Is there by any chance a way to save files, that are compatible with older versins (Like in Word) ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to get the same colors on the drawing when exporting to ACAD?
1. If I user ColorIndex the colors are transfered from RGB => Color Index 0-255 giving slightly incorrect colors, this is what I use and have a VBA match the colors in AutoCAd, but unfortunatley I have a family where some objects are "correct" colors, but some object in the family just get wierd color and whatever I do I just can't get all of them to have the same. This uses the layers and properties file to define some colors.
2. If I use TrueColors in the export only the objects that have true colors set in the override, everything else is white. This does not as far as I can tell use the layers and properties file to define colors not set in the view manually.
I would like to have the Exported DWG use the same TrueColors as in the drawing with in the Revit Drawing, but apparently it is not possible.
When I'm in the Group Edit mode, the box disappeared and I have no way to close the group. This is in Revit Architecture 2011.

They are sending us DGN files and they do not seem to want to import in the latest AutoCAD Architecture 2013 I have deployed throughout the offce.
