You should be using Autodesk Screencast or hosting your video on YouTube or just post a picture. Few will download a 12Meg video for fear of virus. I downloaded it and it gave essentially no information since the video portion is missing, just audio.
Without trying the video [since @dbroad mentions the video part is missing], SLICE is the command to trim bits off a solid object. Or if trimming is not along a flat plane, as SLICE would do, if you can construct the inverse as another solid, you can SUBTRACT it from the original.
let me know if there are issues with accessing or viewing the video clip. There might be some privacy settings I need to change, but with privacy settings of social media being immeasurably complex, unintuitive, illogical, and cumbersome, there may be a setting I need to change.
I have a feeling that I have installed 32 bit version Autocad instead of 64 bit version. On my C drive I have two program files, one is normal - program files, the other is - program files(x86) which I beleave stands for 32 bit versions.
For clarification, pasting the code at the command line and hitting Enter, does not invoke the command. The command line returned "_64BIT-P" as that is the symbol that has just been loaded into memory. This only means that the symbol (the function) has been defined, and can now be invoked.
Hi ReMark, I have the 2012 3ds max version Most likely the file it has been mistakenly overridden, like you mentioned. RenderMan, I copied the code in autocad, it comes up with error - ; error: no function definition: _64BIT-P. I apologise for this
Copying and pasting the complete function loads the LISP routine into that drawing's memory, invoking the function as shown here actually makes the function 'do something'. Again, this is a routine intended to be called from within other LISP routines, so you may not be familiar with calling a function in this manor (if at all). It's really quite simple once you get the hang of it.
Hello RenderMan, no disrispect, by not working, I ment the lack of my experience I thought it is as easy as just copying in the comand line, but thank you ever so much for your time and help I will look up some tutorials
Thanks for the links I just looked up at Lees tutorials in terms of how to upload the LISP codes, I found the ready file here -code-modules/detect-autocad-type - I then entered the appload comand, navigated to this code, but nothing happened. Or maybe I am missing something.
When i try to insert a SID (MrSID) raster image in AutoCAD 2009 SP3 64 bits (in a machine with Windows 7 64 bits and another machine running Windows 10 Pro 64 bits) it responds that this format in unknown or incompatible. I tried to install Raster Design Objects Enablers for AutoCAD 2009 64 bits but the problem not dissapears.
Thank for your opinion pendean, i download the RDOE plugin from Autodesk Support Web and i verified that is the same version from AutoCAD 2009 Raster Design original DVD. During the installation the software shows some error windows about creating some registry keys, but i created the registry keys manually.
I downloaded the free trial, and I am sure i chose the 64 bit, but the 32 bit autodesk app in running in my background. For the first 3 days, autocad worked fine, I have now spent 5 hours trying to open and use austocad. It will open, but dings at me everytime I try and press any command and won't work. Is it possible I am running the 32 bit on my 64 bit computer? would this cause it to constantly freeze on me?
The install process does not allow 32-bit to be installed on a 64-bit system. If you had tried to install 32-bit on a 64-bit system a window would pop up noting that you do not have the correct version.
We are moving to AutoCAD 2011 and simultaneously testing machines in the Win 7 64 bit environment. On one of the 64 bit machines we've installed 2011 and would like to quickly migrate our 2008 settings for preliminary testing. However, the 2008 32 bit install program says it can't install on a 64 bit machine. Is there any way around that?
We were trying an outomated installation for our SMS server and thought perhaps IT does something to the files - like a wrapper - that prevents the installation. Someone in another department borrowed out disc and didn't return it. I've located one and hope to try installing with it tomorrow. The disc says nothing about the bit bersion so I'm hoping that even in 2008 both the 32 and 64 installations were on the same disc.
If I recall correctly 2008 didn't have an official x64 version. If you contact Autodesk they may send you a link to a 'use at your own risk' x64 version. I know they sent me one but I don't have the link and we have since moved on to where we are currently on 2010.
We run it on Win7 64bit and the image hotfix as well as the Service Packs ruin the install. So...we run 2008 without service packs or hotfixes. This impacts stability particularly when inserting images into your cad file.
Thanks for the suggestion. I was off the last two weeks and just this morning thought of asking my reseller if there was something available. I'll wait to see what I hear and if he hasn't heard about it, I'll mention your post here.
If vanilla acad is anything like the acad arch install, the MSI has been set to reject installation of 2008 on 64bit OS. The work around is to copy the contents of the DVD onto a machine and edit the MSI file. If you do a search under the autocad architecture forum you will find more detailed instructions. 2009 was the first true 64bit version released if my memory serves me right.
I found a website that charted AutoCAD'a compatibility with 64 bit systems and it said that AutoCAD 2008 bit was supported on XP and Vista 64 bit systems but not Windows 7, which is what we're testing on. Still, your MSI edit idea might work.
I would like to thank the community for their response. To anyone looking for the answer with problems loading autocad, Longbow is the answer. I have never seen a company that went to so much effort to help a customer. Kudos to longbow.
AutoCAD 2008 32bit can be installed on 64bit Windows 7, I have done it. It also works well. The installer checks if the operating system is 64bit and stops if it is true. Youcan remove this check by editing the .msi. i got this to install and work without any problems but I couldn't uninstall the program normally but as a parallel installation was Ok I didn't bother to investigate the problem more. below are some instructions I found somewhere from the net. There maybe some steps missing but you get the idea.
8. Some support paths under the "Files" tab of the configuration dialog box have incorrect paths.
The installer adds and extra "\AppData\AppData" to some support paths located in the user profile.
I wonder why the ADT team chose to disable 64 bit installs.
The program seems to function fine in Vista 64 bit. ADT 2006 and 2007 installed without a hitch on this same system even though you had to set them to run as ADMIN in order to be able to use them, so I am not buying the whole "the ARX programs don't work with 64 bit" argument.
I recently setup a new desktop that is 64 bit win7 os. His old computer was 32-bit. We have reinstalled his autocad but when we open the old drawing it won't open since they were saved as 32-bit. The only solution I have found from searching is the longbow converter but this costs about 300 dollars. I was hoping that someone might have a few suggestions.

Another year has gone by, and we have a new release of the Autodesk flagship product AutoCAD. So, this year we have the new and improved AutoCAD 2018 release. In this blog, I look at some of the best bits that will help improve your everyday drafting tasks.
The file navigation dialog boxes such as Open, Save, attach now remember the sort order of the columns. If, for example, you sort by file size or reverse sort by file name, the next time you access that dialog box it will automatically display files using that same sort order.
The Layer Control option is now part of the Quick Access Toolbar menu. Whilst previously you could right click the layer control and add to the menu you can now pick it from a list on the quick access flyout menu.
The rubber-band line is a line that stretches dynamically within the drawing area as you move the cursor between two points. You will have previously seen this when using move or copy. In this release, you can now specify the color of the band using the color options.
AutoCAD 2018 now supports high-resolution monitors to ensure the best possible viewing experience on 4K displays and higher. Commonly used user interface elements, such as the Start tab, Command line, palettes, dialog boxes, toolbars, ViewCube, pick pox, and grips, are appropriately scaled and displayed as per the Windows settings that you use.
The Recognize SHS Text tool allows you to select import pdf geometry and it will convert it to text objects. It will analyse the selection set and compares them to SHX cache files stored on your system.
