    XREF RELATIVE PATHS AUTODESK 2006

    Render dosent appear on AutoCAD 2005, Need More CPU?

    The file extension in render is easy to use. I would use jpg because the compression is quite a bit better. Within that render dialog you can use compressed tga, but I would steer away from tga. Use either tif or jpg. 14mb is wwwaaay to big for furniture. There is no difference in detail...

    Computer wont power down on shutdown!

    I am compelled to believe that this is a virus (in boot sector)! There are several in fact that will effect your machine in this fashion (been through it several times before in the past). The more unlikey, but possible issue power management, like someone already alluded to or a hardware...

    The applications are pointng to c:\program files. The location does indeed exist. The application is 3d Studio max but I already know that this situation has to do with priveledges and there is hardly any action of the 3ds max forum. I will try these suggestions and inform you both of my...

    Changed domains now apps dont work

    I switched from one domain to another. Now most of my applications are not working. When I first went to user accounts I noticed that the group I belonged to wasnt on local administrator. Using the drop down menu I switched the account to administrator hoping this would solve the access to the...

    leader mtext

    I noticed that the mtextfixed is a newer system variable thatn 2000. I should have recognized that from the begining. The only thing I noticed, and this might sound rrreeallly silly, is if I intiate the qleader command, it will come up with the Mtext option, providing we have the options...

    leader mtext

    I need to elaborate on this. -When going to settings on the qleader, make sure that under Annotation reuse, that "None" is selected and as you have stated already that under Annotation that Mtext is sdlected. -Qtextmode should still be 0, by default. -Doesnt hurt to make sure of the system...

    leader mtext

    If I understand you correctly, when you intiate the qleader command, the mtext prompts doesnt show at all and exits the command and gives you no chance to enter text? If that is the case try the system variable Qtextmode Controls how text is displayed. 0 Turns off Quick Text mode; displays...

    How do you detatch xref with multiple references?

    There are a couple of reasons. 1) The most simplest and basic reason, which I am sure you probably know. Are you trying to detatch a nested xreference? Becasuse you wont be allowed to do so. 2) Another possible reason is corrupted, nested drawing files. Once I have run a recover, then just out...

    Problem in selecting objects

    I know what you mean about Microstation, I have experienced what you described. Funny thing is I think in many ways Microstation is better.

    Problem in selecting objects

    I know see what you mean. They were a couple of us here trying to duplicate the issue and were unable to do so until the last post. I can say that I have never experienced that issue before. I stand corrected. I like what you said in your last couple of questions and would agree with your...

    Problem in selecting objects

    I whole-heartedly disagree with this being an oversight in Autocad programming. That is too easy of a statement to make, like saying every drawing that is problematic is corrupted. I am in constant contact with Autodesk support and my co-workers who have worked with Autodesk in the past...

    Lineweight scaling on xref?

    Just a quick reiteration on Psltscale 0 = Scaled by the global LTSCALE factor. (half the Dimscale) 1 = Viewport scaling governs linetype scaling, whatever it is set to. Highlight viewport and click properties. Use regen an you may see difference.

    Lineweight scaling on xref?

    Well here is my best explanation. In your base drawing (where your work is) the Ltscale should be half the Dimscale. So that means, if the floor plan, or in your case the site/ civil plan is 1"=30'-0", the Dimscale would be 360 and the Ltscale should be half, or 180. Now when you xref that...

    Problem in selecting objects

    Sorry it has been awhile since I have been on ths website. I have a coupe more questions. 1) Is this drawing specific or does it happen on every drawing you open or create. 2) If you change dimension styles does it still happen? It could be migration settings that came from 2002 into 2004...
