AutoCAD 2010 :: Selecting Items Not Working Properly

Sep 21, 2012

Recently I have started having this annoying problem where I select something and it shows it is selected by the grip but in reality it hasn't selected it as can be seen in the properties box.

Cancelling the selection with the ESC key doesn't work

regen doesnt' work

regenall doesn't work

audit doesn't find anything

Qsave does work but I would prefer not to use it due to sharing drawing xrefs with others means that they constantly have to keep reloading the xrefs

Have tried reinstalling autocad but that doesn't make it work.

Currently have a NVIDIA Quadrow 3500 which is probably not the correct one.

AutoCad :: Selecting Second Items Causes First To Deselect

Jul 13, 2012

I am currently running into the problem where i will select 1 item by simply clicking on it, and when i go to select a second item, the first is then deselected. I can click and drag and select multiple items that way, but that doesn't work when the items and on different sides of the drawing and there are other lines and what not in between them.

I am also aware that i can hold shift and select the second item, and all is fine, but that is not my desired operation. I have been working with Autocad for almost a year under the notion that i can just select multiple items by clicking on them all individually and would love to have this operation reinstated, primarily for ease and convenience, which increases productivity.

AutoCAD :: Can No Long Type In Command After Selecting Items

Jul 17, 2012

Since upgrading to AutoCAD Architecture 2013 I've noticed that the sequence in which I type my commands no long works.  I used to be able to highlight various items and then type in the command I want to apply to these items - i.e. Mirror, Erase, Scale, etc.  But now with 2013 I will select the items, then type in the command, and the it asks me to again select the items I wish to apply the command to. What settings I need to change in order to fix this?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Selecting Items And Then Entering Command

Dec 20, 2013

My AutoCAD Map 2014 still allows me to select objects and then type the command to, for example, delete the items. I was able to do it in my Civil3d but it seems something was toggled so that I'm no longer able to. Now if I select items, once I select a command, it essentially unselects the objects or doesn't recognize that they are selected.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Clicking On A .dwg On A Website Won't Open

Feb 1, 2012

When I click on a .dwg on a website, AutoCAD will not open the document and IE just loads a blank page.  My default program for .dwg is set to AutoCAD DWG Launcher.  This works on other PCs.

The only way to open the .dwg is to right-click the link, select Save-As, then double-click the file once it is saved on my PC.

How can I fix this?

Photoshop :: Difference Between Selecting Your Layer And Clicking Add Layer Mask

Apr 6, 2008

Is there a difference between selecting your layer and clicking Add Layer Mask Icon versus having that layer selected, hold down ctrl and select Add Layer Mask Icon?

Also regarding working in Lightroom, if I modify a jpeg, select another image from filmstrip to work on and then go back to the first image for more work, are those actions degrading image even though I never physically save and close.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Random Commands When Fast Mouse Clicking

Apr 11, 2011

We've upgraded to 2012 and have noticed a problem when fast clicking on the mouse when using commands.

For example when using the erase command I would usually type E and then quickly right click and left click. However in 2012 it brings up random command instead of erase i.e. sheetset, publish, ucs etc..Bringing up the text window afterwards it shows

Command: e
ERASE
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: *Cancel*
0 found
Select objects: *Cancel*
Command: _PointCloudIndex

The right click and left click are only processed once.This happens on all commands typed on the command line not just erase

AutoCAD 2010 :: Relocating Menu Items?

Jun 4, 2012

I am updating a user to ACADM 2010 from R14.  His actual R14 menu was customized so that the menu bar shows 'File' 'Drawings', 'Options', 'Edit', 'View', etc. from left to right.  So far I have been able to get the 'Drawings' and 'Options' added to the classic 2010 menu. 

However, the 'Drawings' and 'Options' show clear the right of 'Help' (see attachment).  I need to get them moved over to a position between 'File' and 'Edit'. 

These are drop downs with 5 to 6 levels.  Having them on the right makes them look very messy because the cross back and forth.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Items From Tool Palette Disappearing?

May 15, 2012

I have a section cut that I use from my tool palette that disappears from paperspace. It shows up in model space and everything else I use from my tool palette shows in both model and paperspace. I have all layers on, unfrozen, etc. They are not on my defpoints layer either. It just seems to be that particular block that is disappearing. Its the strangest thing. One day it worked just fine and the next it started doing this.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Do Solid / Subtract With Array Items

Sep 27, 2011

If you have a housing with say, 12 cylinders in the flange which are to be cut out of the housing to become the 12 bolt-holes.  If you positioned your cylinders using polar array, are you supposed to be able to use the command solid/substract?  I can't as it won't pick the array parts to cut.  I had to resort to rotating/copy all the cylinders around the flange and then it works great. Any way to do holes through a solid...

AutoCAD 2010 :: Plot Only Certain Items In Color Without Changing Everything Else To Black?

Oct 7, 2010

I am doing some engineering drawings in ACAD 2011.  I use multiple colors on-screen to discern between certain items, then plot everything in black, like I'm sure almost everyone out there does.  However, I would like to print only lines of a certain layer in differing colors.  Is there a way to have that one layer print in a different color besides black, yet still use multiple colors on-screen?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Recovering Purged Items After Importing To New Template Sheet?

Mar 28, 2012

Needed to purge items in a drawing  to recover a drawing in order to repair corruption within it  it. I purged and audited the drawing in question and then created a block or the drawing elements which I imported to a new drawing sheet. That's great, all is well but.....obviously (now) the only layers, dimscale,etc. items I normally use in my template sheet are gone and only the items remaining after the purge are the ones that were in my original drawing.

How can I, or can I replace my normal full layer list, dim settings, blocks, etc?

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Link Text Items Between Pages And Items In Drawing?

Apr 17, 2013

I am hoping to link text items between pages and items in the drawing such as elevations?

So, ideally, I would have a front page to my drawing set, and this would have a 'Contents' type table on it, with the title name of each drawing in one column, then the drawing number in the next column. This is the tricky bit, someone must know: If i was to change the name / number of any item in this table, could it change also (linked to) the following items:

Drawing title  (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Drawing number (as a text idem on the layout sheet that that drawing relates to) 

Elevation call-out (on the plan view)

And possibly:

Excel reference cell

Drawing layout tab title (this might be pushing it!!)

Perhaps this could be done by linking to an external Excel spreadsheet with these titles modified in there? I'm not sure. This would be ideal as typing into excel is a lot easier than the triple click text modify method required currently.

I waste a lot of time renaming and updating sheet names / titles / numbers. Are there standard templates for drawing sets that may have this built in available anywhere that I could try?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Set UCS Angle By Selecting Two Points

Apr 12, 2013

In previous version you can rotate the UCS around the Z axis by tying UCS Z at the command prompt and then you were prompted to select two points to defin the angle. Now it uses a point at the ucs icon as the first point and only allows me to pick the second point. Is there a way to pick two points to define the UCS angle? I tried setting the UCS Origin to the first point and that did not work.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Selecting An Object Or A Portion Of Dwg

Jan 26, 2013

Virtually all coordinate entry as well as many other tools and operations reference the current UCS. 2D tools.   

Absolute and relative coordinate entry Absolute reference angles Definition of horizontal and vertical for Ortho mode, polar tracking, object snap tracking, grid display,and grid snap Orientation of horizontal and vertical dimensions Orientation of text objects View rotation using the PLAN command           
   
Moving or rotating the UCS can make it easier to work on particular areas of a drawing. However when selecting an object or a portion of the dwg. crossing - window , (a good exemple is stretching) the selection of the area is still  'rectangular' from the ortho of 0° or 90°.  This cross-window selection should follow the direction of the ortho angle selected. Is there a command or a setting in order for this operation to take place?  IF NOT for future autoCad releases or a update for current releases should be reviewed and implemented

AutoCAD 2010 :: 2012 Freezing Up When Selecting Hatch Patterns?

Jul 8, 2011

I just upgraded from Autocad LT to Autocad 2012 (full version).  When I go to select a hatch pattern by left clicking on it the program locks up.  Then I have to "force-close" Autocad 2012 and loose some of my work.  It has done this in several diferent drawings.  Autocad LT does not have this problem. 

I have a HP Z workstation with 6 gigs of ram and an Intel I-5 processor (very fast machine) with a quadro fx 380 grahics card.

I tried reinstalling Autocad 2012 and that didn't work. Not sure what to do.
