Repair did not resolve this.

Re installation cannot be done the coming 3 weeks due to user being not in the office.

 

Any tips would be welcomed.

Hatch Pattern Control

January 4, 2016, 6:39 am

Hi All

 

New poster here.  I am using v2015.  I am seeking a way to control, or more specifically a way to limit the continuation of a hatch pattern beyond the original boundaries.  I am applying a wood grain pattern, and would like to illustrate a series of book matched panels by mirroring the pattern about the centerline of a plank.  If I mirror the pattern as is, it continues the pattern as though it were a continguous extension of the original area, rather than mirror and flip the pattern.

 

I have discovered I can achieve the intended result by creating a block of the hatch pattern within its original boundary (i.e. half the plank), and then mirror that.  But while this provides a method for moving forward, it seems a bit jury-rigged.  Is there a better or more fundamentally correct way?  There must be something simple I am overlooking.

 

Any help would be appreciated.  Toggling back and forth between ACAD and Revit, I don't seem to have as much clarity for AutoCAD as I once did.

 

Thanks in advance

Auto Commit

I'd like you to comment on an issue with is bordering me for some time.

I’ve notice on several posts from Autodesk that Commit is faster than Abort, so why isn't Commit the default.

 

 

For instance when this happens i suppose Abort is issued from the Dispose -- Implicitly called by Using.

               using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
                {
                    if (1==1)
                        return;

                    //...
                    tr.Commit();
                }

To avoid a lot of if/then blocks one could implement:

 

                using (MyTransaction tr = new MyTransaction(db,true))
                 {
                    //... 

                    //if ("YouRealyWantToAbort".Length > 0)
                    //    tr.AutoCommit = false;

                    if (1 == 1)
                        return;

                    //...
                    tr.Commit();
                }

//...
    public class MyTransaction : IDisposable
    {
        private bool disposed = false;
        private Database DB { get;  set; }
        private Transaction TR { get;  set; }
        public bool AutoCommit { get; set; }

        public MyTransaction(Database db, bool autoCommit=true)
        {
            DB = db;
            TR = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
            AutoCommit = autoCommit;

//...

        protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)
        {
            if (!disposed)
            {
                if (disposing)
               { 
                    if (TR!=null && AutoCommit)
                        TR.Commit();
                    TR.Dispose();
                    TR = null;
                    DB = null;
                }
                disposed = true;
            }
        }


//...

 

- I couldn't find any way to find out if a transaction already is Committed or Aborted.

- Why wouldn't Autodesk added the AutoCommit feature?

ObjectARX 2015 - access violation with AcDbOverrule

January 4, 2016, 7:04 am

Hi, my code works perfectly on Autocad 2014, but in Autocad 2015 there is an AccessViolation in MFC. Here's the code:

 

Acad::ErrorStatus MyOverrule::deepClone(const AcDbObject* pSubject,
AcDbObject* pOwnerObject,
AcDbObject*& pClonedObject,
AcDbIdMapping& idMap,
Adesk::Boolean isPrimary)
{
	if(CopyOperationInProgress())
	{
		pOwnerObject = NULL;
		return Acad::eOk;
	} else
	{
		return AcDbObjectOverrule::deepClone(pSubject, pOwnerObject, pClonedObject, idMap, isPrimary);
	}
}

So. CopyOperationInProgress checks current command and returns true if current command is "COPYCLIP" or "COPYBASE".

So, if it's copying then subDeepClone should not be called on my entity (I have my own mechanism to copy my entity).

 

As I said, this works on Autocad 2014. But on Autocad 2015 I get access violation in:

File: oledoc1.cpp

Method: COleDocument:Smiley FrustratedaveToStorage(CObject * pObject)

Line: 723 (pObject->Serialize(saveArchive)Smiley Wink

Message: Unhandled exception at 0x00007FFDB03F4DA4 (acdb20.dll) in acad.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

 

Am I doing something wrong, or Autocad does?

Text attributes within a dynamic block

January 4, 2016, 7:44 am

Hello all,

 

I created a dynamic block with multiple layer states and each layer state has a block with text attributes in it. Is it possible for me to Edit Attributes for the blocks within the block?

 

Example: I created six blocks and each block has two attributes for Make & Model. The height of each of the six blocks is different. The attributes in each of the six blocks is unique to the block. Therefore, I created six unique blocks and each block has its own unique text attributes

.

Therefore, block #1 could show Make = Sony and block #2 could show Make = LG.  Is there a way to double click the dynamic block to edit the text attributes within the main block, or something similar?

.

autocad 2016 locks up in windows 10.

January 4, 2016, 1:51 pm

One of my co-workers purchased a new laptop.  core i7, 8gb, windows 10.  windows has been updated to build 1511 (the november update).

autocad 2016 installed and activated without issue.  autocad 2016 sp1 installed without issue.

 

autocad worked for editing / creating files for several days.  no known additional hardware or software changes.  Now autocad starts, files will load, and the cursor will move (with the mouse) for a fraction of a second.  Then autocad is locked up.  neither mouse input nor keyboard input is possible.  Looking at task manager, there is essentially no CPU being used, 30% memory in use.  symptoms are repeatable in spite of reboots and/or restarts of autocad.  Same symptoms irrespective of file being edited.  license is local (not network served).  Allowed autocad to sit in locked up state for several hours to see if it could clear itself.  no such luck.

 

I've searched the web and the forums, and have seen 1 additional report similar to this, but no solution.

 

As near as I can tell, autocad 16 with sp1 is compatible with windows 10.

 

Are there any suggestions on how to proceed?  Given the co-worker, and the fact this is a new laptop, downgrading to windows 8.1 really isn't an option.

 

Thanks

Pasting Dynamic Blocks

January 4, 2016, 2:36 pm

When I try to paste a DB into a drawing, it will default to its original state if that block already exists.

 

Why this is not acceptable:

 

Say I have a detail that has 32 dynamic blocks that I need to paste into a new file.  I would have to modify all of them to re-create the state I need.

 

Other info about this problem:

 

- WBLOCKing the DB into a file then inserting makes no difference

- putting the DB in a temporary block then pasting makes no difference

- purging our the source drawing makes no difference

- deleting all other crap in the source drawing makes no difference

 

Other really weird and annoying behavior:

- This only happens with certain blocks that are really long skinny shapes (like a GWB section) and not on others (like a stud section)

- paste the block into an empty drawing - works fine.  Immediately hit paste again and the DB is different!

- The block will sometimes just be not as long as it is supposed to be.  Like its 14' in the source drawings and comes in as 10'!!!!

 

Please help!

Hello, 

Probably not the right place but I noticed that Fusion 360 is free to startups (businesses that made under 100K). 

Is there such a thing for AutoCAD? 

Furthermore is there such a thing for 3DS or other software? 

Thanks!!!

Malfunctioning Annotative & Dynamic Block

Hello,

 

I created an annotative block that has a couple simple actions/parameters. It is attached. 

For the most part it works correctly but when the annotation scale is changed to 1:20 and 1:50 it does not behave as desired.

If 1:20 is selected, the whole block jumps left.

If 1:50 is selected, the text jumps up and to the right.

 

I am not sure why this is happening! Any help is greatly appreciated! 

 

Thank you,

S

 

FYI: I am working in AutoCAD LT 2016 and running Windows 7...

Import coordinates and lines from the same .SCR file

January 5, 2016, 2:08 am
$

Dear AutoCAD users,

 

I am trying to automatize some of my work, and therefore I tried to import some coordinates of several bars from the same .SCR file. What I tried is to make an .SCR file with coordinates and Line commands (more than one), like:

 

Line

0,1,1

0,2,2

Line

0,3,3

0,4,4

 

But apperantely it seems AutoCAD just import the first 2 and make a line between them. The problem, that I have the coordinates for the bars (start node and end node) and this would be the best way to import them. To put simply on "Line" command and all the coordinates is not feaible, because AutoCAD makes connections between nodes, where there is non, simply because they are after each other. To sort out these nodes is also complicate.

 

Is there any way to import multiple lines from one file (excel, or scr, etc)??

 

Thanks in advance !
