AutoCAD Tips & Tricks of the Day

Stryker wrote:COMMAND: GATTE

THIS COMMAND IS VERY USEFUL IF YOU ARE WORKING WITH MULTIPLE LAYOUTS WITH ATTRIBUTE ON TITLE BLOCK OR ON DRAWING ITSELF.
Just type in the command promt GATTE, then select the attribute on the title block or on the drawing, then type in the new
[color=cyan]value of the attribute you want. and then look for the other layouts they were changed simultaneously in one command.

Very useful ito kung gumgawa kayo ng mga drawings n maraming layouts tapos may title block sya na naka attribute. hindi mo n
sya edit isa isa, GATTE mo lang s isang layout lahat sila magbabago na..

Hope this one helps

Use the MASSPROP command - it will list the properties of the selected 3D solid:

Mass
Volume
Bounding box
Centroid
Moments of inertia
Products of inertia
Radii of gyration
Principal moments and X-Y-Z directions about centroid

When you insert an image, it has a frame around it so you can select it. When you go to plot your drawing, if you do not want to see the frame, simply type the command “IMAGEFRAME” to set its visibility as follows:

Setting 0 - Image frames are NOT displayed and NOT plotted

Setting 1 - Image frames are BOTH displayed and plotted (default).

Setting 2 - Image frames are displayed but NOT plotted


this wil help me so much wen in terms of raster image.. nice post sir and thanks for yhe help..kip on posting ,mrming slamt ulit sir

Unreconciled Layer = Unreconciled layers are new layers that have been added to the drawing or to attached xrefs since the layer list was last evaluated. The layer list is checked for new layers when a command, such as PLOT is used. In new drawings, the layer baseline is created when the drawing is saved or plotted for the first time. When a new drawing is first saved, the layer baseline is created, and all layers present in the saved drawing are considered reconciled (not new). Layers that are added after a drawing is first saved are considered new unreconciled layers.

To get rid of these:
1. Unreconciled layers become reconciled by right-clicking the layer and clicking the Reconcile Layer option. Once a layer has become reconciled, it is removed from the Unreconciled New Layers filter. After all new layers are reconciled, the Unreconciled New Layers filter is removed.

2. If still confused with the method - type on the command : LAYEREVAL , then set the amount to 0, the message will not appear anymore.

3. other method that might help use AUDIT.

Not sure hows your method with these one, there are a lot of things to consider why theres nothing on your preview window

4. one was about the layers, the printer icon might pressed on its layer, if that icon has a red check mark, that layer is not printable.

5. or the scale you use on printing, and more.....
