wipeout command → Frame option → what is display but not plot ?

I do not see the difference between " display but not plot " and "ON - frames are displayed and plotted"  because in both cases frames are plotted. Why so ?  You can check my two dwg file "wipeoutframe 1 " and " wipeoutframe 2"

Hi,

 

>>"I do not see the difference between "display but not plot" and "ON - frames are displayed and plotted""

For usual and how it works on our workstation with your files too:

"display but not plot" = You can see it on monitor, but not in your plot result (paper,image or pdf..)

"on" = you can see it on monitor and in your plot result as well.

 

 

>""because in both cases frames are plotted. Why so ?"

I am 99% sure it is not the case. Are you sure you didn't made mistake in your test?

 

>>"You can check my two dwg file "wipeoutframe 1 " and " wipeoutframe 2"

 

"wipeoutframe 1.dwg"

Sysvar "wipeoutframe" is set to 2 => "display BUT NOT plot"

And it works, see Z9E3zK5E attachments

 

"wipeoutframe 2.dwg"

Sysvar "wipeoutframe" is set to 1 => "display AND plot"

And it works, see Z9E3zK5E attachments

 

 

You asked Z9E3zK5E "what is this ?"

Answer: This is the plot result of your drawings!

The one with, the other one without wipeoutframes. Just open your attached dwg files, run plot, that's all.

 

Test it again, i am sure it will works.

The only problem i see are the poorly titled dwg files

wipeoutframe 2 for the wipeoutframe 1 file

wipeoutframe 1 for the wipeoutframe 2 file

that's why i guess you got bogged down with the test

Test it again with my attached file, just open the file and while in Model tab, Command: PLOT<enter>[OK]

if it is visible, share your PDF and share a screenshot of dialog, command: ABOUT

>>"But I do not know how to share pdf from autocad"

 

?what You uploaded two PNG files, for PDF it i the same way.

 

So, as i said:

>>Test it again with my attached file

>>just open the file

>>and while in Model tab, Command: PLOT<enter>[OK]

if it is visible, share your PDF and share a screenshot of dialog, command: ABOUT

 

I think you used the PLOT command one ore more time in the past,

so it's nothing new for you.

 

Open the file,

Type-in PLOT<press enter>

press [OK]

 

I am confused about your last answer

Yes, now I see no frame display when I see it in pdf format. I have sent you pdf attachment.

But is this WIPEOUTFRAME 2 setting only applied to pdf format ?

@Anonymous Your screenshot is doing exactly what HELP says it is supposed to be doing (see below).

 

If I may ask: what did you think needed to happen in the PDF?

Good to hear (and see), seems to work as it should

No, it doesn't matter which output is used - digital or paper, all the same.

If another printer shows another result, there is something special with this printer-driver or settings.

Start PLOT, Select another printer, press [Preview] - The frame should'nt appears while wipeoutframe is set to 0 or 2

I see WIPEOUTFRAME 0 setting have effect on paper space but WIPEOUTFRAME 2 setting does not make any difference in paper space.

It seems your AutoCAD is working as it is all explained to you here
and exactly as it says in the help.
I'm pleased.

The only question i have, may i ask whyyou posted a wrong statements first? ""because in both cases frames are plotted. Why so ? ""

In your other thread i see you have a hard time with documentation and help from others, so i let it be how it is now.

 

Paperspace is not a plot, it is a space to setup a drawing (drawing frame, legend, stamp ...).

Near to a plot ist the Plot[Preview], but it is also just a try to give you an idea of how it would come out afterwards,

must not 100% identical with you plot (paper & digital files like jpeg or PDF).
