AutoCAD 2010 :: FONTALT System Variable
Sep 13, 2013
I am finding with certain types of fonts, mostly on architectural title sheets, that they get substituted to romans font.When I go to the Fontalt Setting Variable though and enter a period for no selection and then regen, all the 'missing" font regenerates and looks fine.
My question is why is the font not appearing properly in the first place? I must have the font if it is appearing properly.I don't want to have to reset the fontalt variable everytime I want to plot a drawing!

We are unable to set the value for system variable "INSNAME" .
It is returning nothing after assigning values for this variable.
We are using below statement for setting the value.
Application.SetSystemVariable("INSNAME ", "test.dwg");
(We are working in AutoCAD 2010. using programming language as .net 3.5).

I am having trouble getting my text height to change user the 'textsize' system variable.
When I input a new height at the command prompt using 'textsize' the text height in the text style dialogue box does not automatically change to match. Also when I use the dtext or mtext command after changing the textsize value, these commands use the value in the text style dialogue box instead.

According to the documentation the FRAME system variable overrides XCLIPFRAME, IMAGEFRAME, etc., has four valid values, 0, 1, 2, or 3, and its initial default value is 3. While editing a drawing, I set FRAME to 0, and then some time later, tried to set it back to 3. AutoCAD refused to accept this value, saying "Requires an integer between 0 and 2." Typing (SETVAR "FRAME" 3) at the command line also failed. The only way I could get it back to 3 was to use UNDO to go back to the default value. Is this a bug?

I've got an intermitent problem with copyclip, pasteclip and Wblocks. The functions work in some files but not other it seems to be dependent on the size of the file, i have 7 xref's in the dwg. i can copyclip to the dwg, but not form dwg. is it due to the size of dwg or what? can it be fixed? OR is there a system variable to set?

Being new to 13LT I'm not sure if they have included a system variable that would allow the origin of a snap inside a command to automatically start at the first selection point. In the old days (ACAD2000) I was able to customize my keypad to function as a protractor with the 5 key being the @ symbol. We did that with an autolisp which rules that out.

I want to have a piece of text added to the drawing notes that uses a field (or similar), to list the coordinate system code assigned to the drawing, i.e. UTM83-12.
Any setvar or something that I can use?
There are load of different coordinate systems to choose from, and I don’t want to have to manually enter it for every drawing.

How do I change the lineweight system variable
Pressing the command button puts <Lineweight > in the command line.
The last problem I had to search for was to change lineweights
br.LineWeight = 0.35
should be:
br.LineWeight = LineWeight.LineWeight035

I have a computer where all text entered in AutoCAD text/mtext comes out in uppercase. Pressing the shift key while entering the text has no effect. The CAD-Girl involved has admitted to sniffing around in Express Tools System Variables and changing a few, but she cannot remember any more which ones she changed.

Every time I open a drawing in AutoCAD 2011 it seems to lock all the xrefs associated with the drawing so when ever some one else tries to open one of the xrefs they can only do so read-only.
Is there a system variable or a setting some where I've accidentally changed?.. I can't seem to find a solution or what the problem even is anywhere.

I have a problem setting sysvar like SNAPBASE, which requires 2d point or 3d point. I always get wrong input for the following lines.
double[] point = new double[2] {5,5};
object value1 = point;
Application.SetSystemVariable("SNAPBASE", value1);
what value should I give a 2d point or 3d point?

System variable to keep a stacked fraction with the leading number?
We open the same drawing on different computers at work and on one computer the number will be 21/2 but on the next computer that opens the same dwg the 1/2 will have been bumped down to the the following line. I don't know if this is a problem with the autostack properties, although I can't find anything about that, or if its a problem with the tabs.
I'm completely at a loss and its becoming a problem because if one person opens a project to plot it and it looks fine but the next person opens it and every mtext in the dwg is wrong it becomes very time consuming to fix.

I was attempting to troubleshoot some performance issues I've been having using process monitor. I noticed that AutoCAD 2013 is constantly checking for an XREFSTATE System variable, that according to documentation is stored in the registry. however, process monitor is reporting this variable as not found. So that leads me to a couple questions:
why is it constantly checking the status of the variable
why is the variable not located within the path it is looking for.

How do I check, with LISP, if a System Variable is read only? In particular ANNOTATIVEDWG. This one is read/write when there are no annotative objects in a drawing, but read-only if there are.

Existing polyline set to a width of 6. Want to fillet this to a non-polyline with a width of zero.
Currently the two lines will join to create a connected polyline but the original widths are maintained (6 and 0).
I am looking for the system variable where the non-polyline becomes joined and the global width for the new segment matches the first polyline.

I'm having trouble finding a system variable.
I have blocks in a drawing that were made using the 'retain' method. WHen I go to insert the block I cannot see the block preview at the crosshair cursor. The block only becomes visible once I have clicked the left mouse key at the insertion point.
This means I can't rotate it either as I can't see it until I have clicked to place it.
Which system variable (And what setting) will allow me to see the block as I'm inserting it?

Is it possible to change the system variable "TEXTSIZE" with an autolisp routine? I have hundreds of drawings that have varying textsize settingings and I can't get it to let me change it, unless I go into "Style" and manually change the value to "0" before I run the routine, and there are simply too may drawings to do that everytime. So, is there a way to reset the textsize to 0 through Lisp?

is there a system variable to shut off the layer state preview? I would prefer to use the drop down and select the desired layer state, the preview slows this process down.

know of a variable which controls how stretching with grips works. I've got a single machine with Autodesk Architecture 2012 that when I select a grip and move it, then type a dimension in the command line, that the line becomes the dimension I typed, not the amount I moved it. For example, If i have 10" line, select and end grip, stretch it +3 inches or -3 inches, the line becomes an absolute of 3 inches. On all other machines, the line would either become 13" or 7".
