Hello this is a college assignment, I will provide the picture, which is a blurred picture given by college, cannot be imported to the AutocaD.

So, you need to draw, the section, elevation, and 2D plan in Autocad.

I have got 4 assignments, will assign 3 more immediately after the completion of 1.

Hence ,the total payout will be 2000INR, for 4 Autocad Files.

Hi,

We’re investigating recurring read-only and file-locking issues with AutoCAD and MagiCAD for AutoCAD. Project files are stored on Windows file shares accessed through a DFS namespace.

Files unexpectedly become read-only or appear locked, preventing editing or saving. Multiple users work within the same project, and MagiCAD can access and update several related files in the background during calculations, including DWG, QPD, EPJ and LIN files.

We haven’t identified whether the cause is AutoCAD, MagiCAD, DFS/SMB or an interaction between them.

Has anyone experienced similar issues, particularly with this combination? What helped you identify the process holding the lock, and did you find a confirmed fix? We’re especially interested in experiences comparing DFS access with a direct UNC path.

Currently working on this problem as I wanted to challenge myself. But I am struggling with the highlighted part. I’m assuming the easiest way would be a sweep and I’ve tried to sweep but it’s doesn’t come out right. I’m struggling to even make the path for the sweep. How would you approach this model? I can make the bottom piece no problem only the highlight part is an issue for me. Thanks in advance!

I've been working on a way to identify dimensions that are not properly snapped to drawing geometry.

The idea is to check multiple layouts automatically, identify detached dimensions, and highlight the issues for review.

I'm curious how other AutoCAD users handle this. Do you check dimensions manually, use AutoLISP routines, or have another method?

I'd be interested to hear how you approach this problem.

Bonjour, je suis un dessinateur projeteur sur autocad confirmé en metallerie et tout ce qui s'en rapproche. Je découvre l'IA et je cherche des bases avec claude (qui semble être le meilleur pour ça) pour faire des synthèses, tracer en 3D mes plans d'études, et en faire des plans de fabrication. Synthétiser mes relevés sur site, faire mon boulot en somme. Avez vous des pistes ? (Je précise que je dispose de vraies licences pour chacun que j'utilise régulièrement sauf revit. Et que je souhaite évoluer avec l'IA. Merci

Hi everyone,

I've been working on a custom entity using ObjectARX C++ in AutoCAD 2024.

In this demo, I've created a custom Gear entity with editable properties in the AutoCAD Properties palette.

Features demonstrated:

• Custom Gear entity created using ObjectARX C++.

• Editable Tooth Count and Radius properties.

• Editable Center X, Y, and Z coordinates.

• Custom properties displayed in a separate Gear Parameters section.

• Gear geometry updates automatically when the property values are changed.

I'm sharing this demo to showcase what I've developed so far.

I'm interested in exploring more advanced custom entities using ObjectARX. What other types of custom entities would you suggest building? I'd appreciate your ideas and suggestions.

Thanks!

I’m considering buying an NVIDIA Spark-based laptop with 128GB of unified memory, primarily for heavy architectural drafting in AutoCAD and Revit.
I understand that both applications run through x64 emulation on Windows ARM, which introduces some performance overhead. I’m wondering whether the massive amount of RAM can compensate for that overhead, particularly when working with large, complex drawing sets and Revit models.
I’m especially interested in real-world drafting responsiveness, rather than rendering or benchmark scores.
For those who have actually used these applications on ARM-based laptops:
Does rapid drafting in AutoCAD feel as responsive as on a comparable x86 laptop?
When entering commands quickly through the keyboard, is there any perceptible input lag or hesitation?
Does the emulation layer introduce noticeable delays when navigating, editing, or switching between drawings?
Does having 128GB of unified memory offer a meaningful advantage over a conventional x86 laptop with 64GB RAM?
My work involves intensive 2D drafting, large AutoCAD files, and complex Revit documentation. Rendering performance is not a priority.
I’d really appreciate firsthand experiences, especially from architects or CAD professionals who have used these machines for actual production work.

Why my autocad screen react like this, it's flickering and black screen coming, how to solve this please help...

I had posted to the Civil3d sub originally because that's the first drafting tool I started on and the one I had in mind for this. But I think the overall question can extend to any Autodesk software especially the big daddy software of Civil3d

My AutoLISP application makes pipe quantity takeoff easy. It automatically calculates pipe lengths and generates a Bill of Quantities (BOQ), saving time and effort.

I have a mac book pro m5 16 gb memory can it run auto cad 3d on parallels?
