Topic: using PROJECTGEOMETRYPosted: 01.Sep.2013 at 22:20 |

Hello!
I'm trying to "draw" a logo from AI on a AutoCAD "wall". And I have some problems about it. The dwg export from the Illustrator is a hatch. The wall in AutoCAD is a 3D solid. So I try PROJECTGEOMETRY. Since it works only with lines and polylines I "recreate boundary" in the hatch edit, get splines, in order to get polylines I try a lisp from the web which doesn't work, I do it manually to finally use PROJECTGEOMETRY. It doest't work. So I created a planar surface and a simple line to test. It didn't work neither. What might be wrong and how to do it right? Thanks |

Try to explode the imported geometry to simple entities. Is the 3D object really a surface?

Thanks. The link have already been my first choice to learn about draping. But:
I open a new drawing, I draw a plansurf, I draw a line, I want to project the line on the planar surface, I choose the line, enter, I coose the surface, enter, enter. Command: PROJECTGEOMETRY SurfaceAutoTrim = 0 Select curves, points to be projected or [PROjection direction]: 1 found Select curves, points to be projected or [PROjection direction]: Select a solid, surface, or region for the target of the projection: Specify the projection direction [View/Ucs/Points] <View>: 0 object(s) projected successfully. |
