Általános utasítások a használattal kapcsolatban

Read the description of each A>V>C> plugin command that you plan to use. Contact technical support only if the description does not provide the answer. It will take a long time to master all the features and correctly configure all the commands. Do not rush to master them all at once. The A>V>C> commands can work almost independently of each other. Master the commands one at a time. To get started, use the default settings and available "styles" for each command.
Create a DWG drawing template with the sheets (layouts), layers, materials, blocks, text styles, leader styles, dimensions, and table styles you need. Write this template in the Autodesk® AutoCAD® settings in the template for the _QNew command or in the AvcOptions settings in the main template so that the plugins find the necessary layers and materials.
Check that the drawing units are set correctly - millimeters or inches (InsUnits system variable = 4 or 1).
Add custom drawing properties to the template to store information about the design item. This is usually a drawing identifier, the names of the participants in the design, the name of the customer, and the product. For the convenience of creating custom drawing properties, use the A>V>C> Properties Palette (AvcPalette) on the Drawing tab.
Use blocks with visible non-constant attributes as title blocks on sheets. Fields must be inserted in the attributes that refer to the properties of the given drawing. Then you can fill in the drawing properties once (for example, in the A>V>C> Properties Palette), and this data will appear automatically on all sheets.
It is better to store large collections of blocks with which you will designate purchased products or standard assemblies in separate DWG files. When updating such a collection, you can easily update the blocks in the drawings with the Block Update (BUpdate) command.
Design a model of your product using 3D solids.
1. It is better to design from the dimensional box, peeling the parts with the AVC Slice (ASL) and Multi-Slice (MSL) commands.
2. You can split the overall box into sections using one of the Chop and Chop Edge commands (Ch, ChE).
3. We also arrange the ribs using the Chop commands with the Ribs option enabled.
4. The grooves and dadoes are made with the Dado Joint Command (DDJ).
5. The cruciform joints are made with the command Cross-Piece (CRS).
6. To subtract solids with clearance, use the Gap (GAP) command.
Prepare blocks for all purchased items.
1. Inside these blocks, place solids of the Hole layer, so that the Drill (DRI) command will work later.
2. For fasteners, you need to prepare blocks suitable for the Fixture command. It is important to correctly orient the solids inside such a block and set up all the placement attributes.
3. Blocks can be measured with the BlockMetric command so that it has the attributes of size, weight, and price.
4. Then, in the Properties Palette A>V>C> (AvcPalette), lock the measurement and enter the correct weight and price for all these items.
5. Remove the Explodable label from product blocks so that no other commands work with them as with assemblies, but consider them as ready-made, purchased products.
6. Add the invisible attributes you need to the blocks - catalog, article, and the like. Attributes can be added and removed directly in the Properties Palette A>V>C>. Attributes are useful if you need to extract data, for example, for BIM.
Arrange fittings and fasteners. For fasteners, use the Fixture command with your blocks (not the ones included in the program). Remove excess fasteners where there are too many of them. Move where they hit the cutouts and on top of each other.
Drill all mounting holes (additive) with the Drill (DRI) command.
If it turns out that the mounting holes need to be changed, then all holes can be removed with the command Remove Holes (RemHoles).
If you have nothing to do, then you can assign each part a text name such as "Shelf", "Rib" and the like. Write it down in the Kind field. But remember, this is a waste of time.
Record supporting information about the parts in the Info field. For example, write down what you need to make at the end of the part.

Verziótörténet

Verziószám	Verzió leírása
2025.02.01	1. DadoJoint & TabSlot: new Backlash option for an additional gap along the slot depth. 2. License management fixed: Activate button error: "Too old version" 3. AvcOptions fixed in AutoCAD 2025: Crash when opening the palette in systems with rare localizations (for example ru-KZ). 4. SolSize: The command now erases materials and colors of solid surfaces if all surfaces were accidentally painted the same color. 5. Fixture: Now start the arrangement in the positive direction of the axes of the UCS (previously the beginning of the joint closest to the beginning of the WCS was selected) 6. Fixture: If you need to mirror fasteners, the program will now mirror the first half of the joint if the Y axis of the fastener is directed in the negative direction to the current coordinate system. This way, you will get a symmetrical arrangement of fasteners on both sides of the shelf. 7. Fixture: In the Fixture.dwg file, asymmetrical fasteners have been adjusted to facilitate mirror installation. 8. Chop fixed: assigning a color to the slices from the material. 9. Substitution %dimensions% fixed: The inch symbol in the architectural drawing unit style was duplicated. 10. Substitutions %weight% and %cost% fixed: now they also work for blocks with metrics, regardless of localization. 11. AvcPalette fixed: Dimensions in feet and inches were not recognized when entering block metrics. 12. AvcPalette fixed: The metric blocked from measurement was not displayed if the volume was zero. 13. Substitution %mat%: The color name is now substituted instead of the Global material only if the part is specified as a catalog color (not index or RGB). 14. SmartLeader fixed: Crash when searching for objects in a drawing with broken external references.
2024.09.04	Solid metric: the procedure for reducing the size of a part by the thickness of the edge bandings now works not only with 4-sided parts. But only the thickness of the edges directed strictly along X and Y are still subtracted. AvcPalette: Added an option to disable all ordinary properties at once. It makes the palette as compact as possible. LAY & Solid Metric: Now works with round pipes if they are assigned a material of the "Rod" type. Solid Metric: The length of a round pipe bent along an arc is calculated as the length of the arc along the axis of the torus. And the width and thickness are the minor diameter of the torus. The Sweep property is automatically adjusted. Solid Metric: New technology names added: "Cut pipe", "Processed pipe". Fixture: New "Ignore UCS" option. SweepSize: Added options for the size of unfolded solids: Longer side, Center line, Longer Segments. LAY: New Flip option. Dark theme support: Dark background for form section headers.
