Hyperlinks for ACAD

Thu, 2013-04-25 01:51

I don't use hyperlinks in ACAD for my application so I am illiterate on the subject, but a friend of mine in Salt Lake wants to. 

 

His setup is full ACAD 2012

No idea of system specs

 

Here is his question:

 

 

================I am trying to create a hyperlink in AutoCad.  It is basically attaching information on existing blocks.  ie. a Phoenix Contact Power Supply with attached .pdf file to it's datasheets that I have created.
 
The problem - I can do this on my computer but I get an error message - bad file extension - when trying to receive the file.  I can go directly and open the .pdf file where I saved it but trying to do it through the AutoCad hyperlink I get the error. I wanted to factor out some issues so I tried to do the same thing on Vernon's [the boss] computer and it worked with no issues. So, the problem is with my office computer here at work.  

Question - what could be causing the error message of "bad file extension"?  What should I check?

 


==============

 

I have searched HELP but there is only the description that I found.

 

Found an AUGI link that suggests that the file extension is not registered

 

A little help here, plz

 

 

TIA

Interface problems

Wed, 2013-04-24 18:23

Shortly around the time I signed in to Autodesk 360 I began to have problems with how I interface with the program.  I have AutoCAD LT 2013 and, having used the programs for 20 years, I use the AutoCAD LT Classic format for tools and menus.  Also due to how I learned CAD in the early 90s and with many abbreviated commands, I use the keyboard extensively. 

1. Certain actions using my mouse have stopped working (i.e. Right-click to edit hatch or blocks). Basically a "recent input" menu comes up each time, showing a short history of my commands. 
2. When I click on an object, from the top bar I can no longer edit using the pull downs for Layer, Color, Line Type, etc.
3. I can only edit via the Properties menu or through typing in commands.  However when I go to change a setting in the Property menu, the boxes with an ellipsis do not respond at all.

There are other issues that have cropped up but those are the ones that I can remember for now.

Multi leader without landing

Wed, 2013-04-24 03:20

How do I make a leader, no text, no landing, grippers on both ends.  Everytime I go to grab the gripper on the non-arrow side of the leader it moves away from me (I believe I am talking about stretch point, but not sure.  The line just moves away from the pointer at an ever increasing speed and distance).

Adding Digital Signature Field

Wed, 2013-04-24 01:33

Hi,

I have used the Search bar in this forum to find information on the above topic but my browser will not let me see what is on the 2nd page or beyond that...

 

What I am looking for is this:

Can a field (or something) be inserted into a drawing so that after the drawing has been printed to PDF, digital signatures can be added by the appropriate people/disciplines.

 

I have looked through all of the available fields and haven't found anything.  I have also seached the web for a good hour and have found a lot of dead ends and others looking for the same answer with little or no response.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Jeremy

Poliisin tiedottaja sanoi, uhreja tällaisissa tapauksissa yleensä saanut ei-toivottuja viestejä SMS, puhelut tai sähköpostitse, kertoa heille, että ne oli voittanut suuren summan käteistä arpajaisia järjestivät kansainvälisesti tunnettu.

Can only offset lines drawn up and down (y axis)

Tue, 2013-04-23 04:59

I just upgraded from AutoCad LT 2008 to 2013.  I cannot offset a line that is drawn the x-axis.  I also cannot copy an item with the ORTHO command on and run it along the x-axis.  I'm only allowed to move it along the y-axis.  I've now waisted at least three hours messing with every possible command that I can think of trying to fix it.  What do I have set wrong?

AutoCAD LT Installation Error

Mon, 2013-04-22 22:06

Hi,

 

I have installed AutoCAD 2012 LT on my work machine, but its coming up with an error - "Customization file load failed. File not found: acadlt".

 

My work machine is controlled by our IT, so the C: drive is locked and I only have temporary admin rights on it. Being a fresh installation, I believe this might be related to the security policies my work machine is under.

 

Any ideas?

 

Regards

Paulo Alao

Can you help?

Autocad LT suddenly fails to boot!

Fri, 2013-04-19 16:12

I am running a fully licensed version of AutoCAD 2012 LT on Windows 7.  It worked perfectly the last time i used it (several weeks ago).  Just today, the program will not fully load.  Instead, it displays the load screen for several seconds, pops open the CAD window for just a split-second, then disappears.  No warning message popsup.  I tried everything I could think of:

  • Repair (from Control Panel>Programs & Features)
  • Reinstall
  • Uninstall & Install
  • Update Operating system (Windows 7) with all "Important" and "optional" Windows updates

Nothing has worked.  I am out of ideas.  Any solutions here would be GREATLY appreciated.  Here are two tips:

  1.  An educational version of AutoCAD 2013 i have works normally.
  2.  During the re-install, one warning message displayed this message:

"Failed to find node: //configuration/Connect/V drive in XML file:

C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Content Service/Connect.Service.ContentService.exe.config, system error:

-2147020584"

 

Thanks for any help! :smileyhappy:
