I keep changing the Command Alias Editor in ACAD 2010 so I can use the hot keys I have grown accustomed to. They work fine but when I close ACAD then reopen it goes back to defaults and I have to change them again. I know it's probably loading the wrong menu file or something simple but figured I would ask the experts before I start moving files around.
View 2 RepliesHow to get the 'Shape to Block' command to work (under express tools).
It says select object, but no matter what object I select eg. circle, pline or line, it says invalid selection. I am running AutoCAD 2012. Are 'shape' objects somehow different from any other objects?
I am able to use the menuload command to load the express menu, but when I try to execute one of the express tools. AutoCAD say invalid command, there was something on the website that said to type express tools at the command prompt, but when I do that, too it says invalid command.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using AutoCad Civil 3D 2012, with windows XP, and when I type "extrim" at the command line, I get this:
Command: extrim
"bad argument type: listp #<SUBR @2f9669b0 BONUS_ERROR>"
There are also a few other express tools that when picked from the ribbon menu, do not work either. Now, I have seen elsewhere on the web that in this case, you should make sure there are no search paths set to R14 Bonus tools (which mine aren't), or repair and update express tools from add/remove programs in the control panel. I did this, and the only thing that happened was the numbers after SUBR@ changed.
WHERE AND HOW THE EXPRESS TOOLS ARE LOADED?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy question is: Why certin AutoCad files, I'm not able to draw lines?
I'm in model space. I can move objects. I can even erase/delete things. But I'm tring to edit this shop drawing, i need to add some details, so i need to draw some lines. I use the "l" command. Select my 1st point, then 2nd point. It doesn't work? The Command line keeps saying: Specify next point or [Close/Undo]. But no lines are getting drawn. i finally have to hit escape to end the line command but no lines have gotten drawn. its the same thing if i draw a square or circle. (Not sure if you need to know this but these are my companies files created by a former employee of my company using our own AutoCad. So, i would think if he's locked this file somehow, i should be able to unlock it.)

View 1 Replies View RelatedMost efficient way to transfer my custom pgp commands? I'm constantly moving between different computers and autodesk versions.
I used to just be able to overwrite the acad.pgp file in the support directory but this doesn't seem to work in the newer versions and I'm hesitant to continue like that in case their are new commands introduced in newer versions that I don't know about then they'd be over written.
Is there anyway to include my command overrides (eg. c=copy) in my back up cui file?
When I create a rectangular box in Autodesk Inventor 2008, shell it, and create a new sketch on any face and press E I expect to be greeted with the extrusion options. This does not happen, and a command alias input dialog appears in the status bar.
I really want to turn this off, since it has happened on other occasions as well. Since there's no other way to get to the extrusion feature, it completely halts my work.
Usually when I don't know what a feature is for and I'm not attempting to use it I expect to not see it- especially when I perform actions that don't usually bring it up. I'm not sure why the behavior has been put there. Hopefully it's not put into later versions (I've seen 2010 complaints as well) so someday an upgrade will remove the annoyance.
I'm trying to get familiar with AutoCAD. Google and didn't manage to solve a problem :
In AutoCAD LT 2013, I created a custom command called Special fillet :
Name : Special filletDescription : Round a polylineCommand display name : SFILLETMacro : ^C^C_fillet;p;r;0.1
I created two aliases at the end of acadlt.pgp :
SF, *SFILLET
C, *COPY
When i type C, it works fine (just a test) but although it appears correctly in the Command prompt, SF doesn't work and it keeps telling me : UNKNOWN COMMAND "SF"
Last thing, if I create an icon in a toolbar with the special fillet command : it works fine...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem I haven't found an answer to in any CAD documents, books of forums. I would like to create:
a) a continuous line that begins and ends with space or a shape
b) a line (of any type) that has text (i.e. shape) imbedded exactly in the middle (no matter how long a line is) or at equal intervals (e.g. each 1/3 of the line)
Is there any chance linetypes like that can be created or will I need to resort to lisp and trimming/breaking the lines once drawn?
The problem is related to cartographic symbols defined by the State Geodetic Administration.
