:lol: :lol: ha, ha, somebody's in the mood to be funny...
Another question: Does this function take windows and doors into account with some approximate weight?? And can this be switched on and off - and can different layers be switched on and off?? In a production lines there can be different lifting situations - one with only wood frame and gypsum, one with everything including facade, windows and doors - and perhaps other situations in between.
You are not doing anything wrong. The steel has another color then the layer and so the steel did get a fix color but not the color 'from layer'.
You can switch off all layers exccapt the layer -15. Then you select the function to change the properties of the lines. Pick all lines with option 'window' and change the color.
This method I know. Thanks anyway... 
I think, it's easier to change the steel color in Dicam by setting a 'steel filter' and set volume info: line color 'blue'.
How, why, when, tell me, tell me.... :pray: :wink:
Ok - to put the steel - or other things in another layer, I can work with now. But for example, when I have steel in layer -15, and I have put the wall drawing into PlanCad, the steel is brown as the wood. When I go into layers I expect that I can change layer -15 to blue and then all steel is blue on the drawing. But no, it remains brown. What do I do wrong??
Aaaarrrrggghhhh - why allways when I ask about something - there is an easy answer - in another version of the program than that one I have!!???
:lol: :roll:
Are there any smart method to calculate the point of gravity for wall elements with wood, steel, windows, doors etc. - perhaps with information imported from Dietrichs???
Perhaps some other program if not possible in Dietrichs?
Hi.
See attached picture. This is a combination between a box-beam and a girder-beam. Is it possible with Dietrichs static software to calculate the strength of this structure as a beam???
There a few things that could be. Normally when you create a dxf drawing you should first explode the dwg drawing and then save it to dxf version 2000. Another thing is that you should close the autocad program before importing in Dietrichs.
Oh - you cannot change the MOS belonging of a wall volume??
Ok, that could be something for the wish-list: The possibility to copy walls in ground plan - with door and window openings.
Another way to do what you wanted in ground plan, could be to make a copy of the story, delete the other walls in that story, move the wall. In MOS (?) change what story the wall belongs to, and then, if necessary, in ground plan change the heights of the wall.
I think there are more of these videos that are not correct? It was in the tutorial where all steps of building a small timberframe house are shown. I saw some wrong videos I think in the section about making material lists.
Did you copy a whole wall in D-Cam - I mean with wall volume, timber etc. turned on and then copied these items to another place in the house??
Maybe in ground plan in "display style" 1-7-1, you did not mark to view D-cam objects??
Another fast way to make a new wall that is identical to another is to create a wall in groundplan, with the same dimensions, length, height etc. and then in wall design find the wall that you want to copy. Now you use "wall macro" 1-5-1 to copy the items in this wall (make a new "wall macro). And then you find the new wall that is untill now just empty. Here you again access "wall macro" 1-5-1, and insert the copied items from that you just made.
Thank you - see my answer. That about open the program as administrator the first time - I always forget. But even then the program shuts down, if I do something else on the computer.
Hello. We need activation key; code C10D-4C6C-D471-5325 – and it changes every time, the program closes…, Is it possible to get this code???
Best regards, Thorvald.
Jofa.
Ok, so far I am there - how to get a result? I have never worked very much = almost not at all, with this part of the program.
Hi. How to see how much wood is used in a project, t.ex. of one specific dimension???
So it is also not possible to install the new hardlock key, while the program is open, so that he after installation can save his work??
So - can you reproduce the error???
You don't understand what I am saying. :wink: He is receiving commercial version / hardlock key tomorrow, and while he is waiting he his making a project from a tutorial - so is there any way that he can "transfer" his turorial project to the commercial version and then continue to work on that tutorial and save it in normal way??? Or maybe if he borrow my hardlock key (or what ever hardlock key the installation CD, that he used, belongs to - mine or my assistent, I am not sure, but I think it might be mine). And then he can save his tutorial work at the end of this day. And tomorrow open it with commercial version, when it arrives.
Possible or not??
Is it possible to save a project made with trial version, so it can be opened with commercial version? He can avoid to turn off his computer, so the program remains open. And then when he receives commercial version just install the hardlock key - or maybe he will have to close the program anyway, before commercial version will work??
Or can he use my hardlock key and then save the project??
That was what I was thinking. I made a very small project, and made several tests, with this project and with 2 other big projects. And I think that now I found the place where it occurs. I can't say for sure that it doesn't occur in other situations, but it seems not.
With the uploaded project I made following steps: Open position, go to D-Cam, select all and open OpenGL, exit OpenGl (and then if I want to open D-Cad, I cannot).
