    Thanks for the video. If i use "sheet list table" to create a drawing list. Is there any way to merge data from 3 columns together? On our title blocks we have Desc 1 Desc 2 Desc 3. I can get the data to come in 3 columns, EXAMPLE MIGHT LOOOK LIKE: "01-CP-110X " "DESC 1-DESC 2-DESC 3". (merge these 3 columns together so it does not form columns) Hope this makes sense.

    • @youcandraft
      @youcandraft Před 9 měsíci

      As far as I know there is not. However there might be a workaround. Sheet set tables follow standard table formatting. What you can do is select the cells for Desc 1, Desc 2, and Desc 3 and go to the borders in the table format. Then turn off the interior borders. This will make it look like one large cell.

    This helped me out a great deal but have one more huge mystery, after getting all of my lines, circles, text, hatch etc into plane Z, I have dimensions that are now NOT in plane Z and I tried going through those properties but can't figure out how to force the dimensions back into the Z plane??? Any advice there?

    • @youcandraft
      @youcandraft Před rokem

      Unfortunately dimensions don't have Z values. Dimensions are created based on the current UCS. Most of the time this is set to the default WCS at 0,0,0, but if your UCS is set to another elevation, say 100 feet, then your dimensions will be drawn at that elevation. The only way to get them back to the 0 elevation is to manually move them.

      @shawnlewis1918 Před rokem

    I'm coming from SketchUp Pro 9SketchUp + layout) to Autocad, and you know - ACAD is jsut so needlessly clunky and complex. In Sketchup Layout, it was so simple to set up a set of sheets, with all the text automated, from title block information, to specification and annotation. Now I have no doubt that ACAD can do all this - but why do they make it so damn difficult? I'm fairly certain I can learn it myself - but how can I convince my Business Partner (and future employees) to also take to automation, if it's so clunky and time-consuming? Coming from Sketchup where everything was so simple and automated, to ACAD, is such a demoralising thing.

      When you select different object types together the Properties window will not show elevation information. You need to click the drop-down list at the top of the Properties window and select each object type, 1-by-1.

    So I use AutoCAD light where I work and I have made a ton of custom Dynamic blocks but im running into an issue. We work with pallets at different depths, and because of this I want to make a block that I can past in my drawing, change the depth, and array it as far as I need it to. Here's my problem/goal though: I want to link an array parameter to a stretch parameter so that whatever I set the pallets depth to, 48" for example, the array parameter will instantly see that and match that depth. How would you go about this? P.S- If you need further clarification on what I am trying to explain, please let me know.
