I have done that but for some reason all the other layers seem to be under it rather than having the picture on the bottom. The JPEG is already on its own layer I just don't know how to get it under all the other layers so I can trace over the top of it.
Thanks RHTPE. I have opened model space in the viewport and when I click freeze it the layer dispears is that suppose to happen? I thought it was suppose to keep the layer on in that viewport model view so when the Layer is off it still shows on that layout. Do I just freeze the layer in the...
Ok the dashed lines are now scaled in model space but where are the LTScale and PSLTscale for the layout so I can make it look right in the layout?
The last thing I have to do is to trace a hand drawn curved embankment from the physical plans. I have already scanned and inserted the JPEG into...
Well I have gotten everything to work how I want besides the dashed lines. I have selected the linetype in the properies tab and nothing then have went into Format>Linetype and changed the scale but there doesn't seem to be any change no matter what I set it to.
I wish the lines to be dashed in...
For some reason I am unable to get a dashed line to work. Any suggestions as to why? It just keeps making solid lines when selected. I am after a rather large scale dashed line compared to the standard lines weight, any suggestions as to how I would do this, they have put this in to show...
Publish just seems to fail so I will have another go once I'm done with the drawings and if it doesn't work I will just print to A1 PDF.
I have already started the updates on seperate layers and have turned them on and off on the needed layouts which has worked perfectly.
Calling me a dummy...
Thanks for the reply.
I have to do two seperate updates one showing the as constructed gas lines and another showing the as constructed fire reel locations and piping but the plans have a new revision so I have to use the same drawing/layout for both updates. Would I simply copy and paste the...
Oops.
Ok the first picture I sent is the Model space and when I clicked on quick view layouts it has brought up all the drawings all layed out as the original plans (this file is from the engineer). It has the exact layout set up as the second picture I uploaded. Now to change the pages should...
Ah the title block is what I am after I believe. I have attached a picture of what I am trying to achieve.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=7aab56e1-f2ed-4d4a-b81f-e0cae11534f3&file=style.jpg
Hey IFRs, I guess that would be along the lines of it. I have only ever done the actual drawings not putting it in the plan space for to scale printing.
I have attached a picture of what I have. I wish to seperate each drawing onto a page for A1 printing at 1:100 scale with the grid border and...
Hey guys,
Well I have updated some construction drawings adding in a few gas lines and water lines as well as a storm water drain but now that it is done I have no idea how to export it into single pages as all the drawings are in the one file. The scale is set to 1:100 at A1.
This is with...
To me personally it doesn't make any sense to run the pipe back through the valve, I would just create a pipe on either side to stay true to how it would really be constructed, if you run it back through the valve it would override any internal parts of the valve.
I've heard the 64 bit version runs noticably better then the 32 bit. I only have 2006 but my step brother just got 2009 so I will check it out when I get a chance.
I thought I'd mention I have SW 2006.
Yes I have tried using the repair sketch function it says that endpoints are wrongly shared.
It seems that DWG editor is the way to go, I haven't really used it much before so I guess I will have a go at figuring it out. Russels instructions are a tad...
