MemberX Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I wanted to know about Blocks which are predefined in tool pallets.If I want to change height of door in section drawing (aluminium door) as 2.1 m how can I change it. I used block editor but it changes by scale factor not exactly 2.1.How can I change it to 2.1 m? Also I wanted to now how to make tiles in hatch for drawing in section as it is not predefined in hatch.How can I make it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Are you referring to Dynamic Blocks? I wouldn't waste the time to create a hatch pattern for floor tiles shown in section. Use one of the hatch patterns that comes with AutoCAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLW210 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 The blocks in the tool palettes for doors are "Dynamic Blocks". Once inserted into the drawing use the blue arrows, etc to adjust the size etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 You do not require a section callout symbol with an arrow at both ends. As long as you have the "flag" (solid rectangular box) on one end and the arrow on the other it is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLW210 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 The file you posted is Imperial. Use the Metric Door and set the width options as shown above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nestly Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Oh my goodness. The guy at Autodesk that created that dynamic block should be fired. It needs two stretch parameters and one flip, the rest is utter nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 It is a bit overkill, though probably to demonstrate constraints. It is all irrevelent to the OPs question. Select "Width">Right-Click>Properties>Value Set>Dist Value List>Click in window and select the button [...] it will open a dialog box and adjust. P.S. That's why I create my own from scratch.
