How to get rid of this warning dialog:
It appears at startup. I recently installed software (Simtra PathPlanner) that works with AutoCAD that may have caused this.

Are there any solutions out there other than a complete re-install? maybe an install repair?
I have a few viewport on a drawing and when I hit Print I get the following warning:
" some viewports do not fit the right zoom conditions. Do you want to update them before plotting"
It then proceeds to print correct.
What is the reason for this error message and how do I get rid of it?
Now every dwg that is opened the dwg recovery warning box pops up. how do i turn that off?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been having a problem with my AutoCAD LT 2010 completely deleting files after I have saved them and closed them. There is no file in the recovery manager, no back up file, nothing. It has happened three times without warning and it always happens to files I've been working on for awhile and have opened and closed multiple times. Is there any way to recover these files and how do I keep it from happening again?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had been using AutoCAD 2012 x64 w/SP1 for quite a few months with no issues. A week or two ago I went to open a drawing and the program locked up. I tried opening AutoCAD via the desktop shortcut and directly from acad.exe and it locks up immediately. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling 2012, but the issue persisted. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling without any service packs. I normally don't use Windows Update and hadn't downloaded any updates prior to these issues, but I did it to see if it would fix the issue and it did not. I uninstalled 2012 and installed AutoCAD 2011 x64 only to have the same exact issue. I have an old version, AutoCAD 2002 that works fine, but my job always receives drawings not saved in 2000, and my convert tool sometimes fails to convert them to a version I can open. A friend of mine pointed me to this thread here: URL.... I am using Windows 7 x64 on a somewhat up to date PC that I built myself.
View 1 Replies View Related When starting acad with Startup set to 0 or when launching from a drawing on file, I do not have any problems, however, when Startup is set to 1, not only does the startup menu appear as a blank pop -up, but the AutoCAD splash screen just hangs without the program launching.
Could it be due to the fact that I am running a 64 bit System?
Having this problem with 2 lisp routines, i have autocad set up to load a certain profile. but every time I start autocad, i have to reload the 2 lisp routines thru appload.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to have my autocad start with my osnap settings, grid off, ortho on, etc. I am not a fan of the grid, and I have to turn it off everytime I start a drawing. Is there a way to create this as a normal setup?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been given a new lap top plus the updated AutoCAD rev. 2012.Supposedly it is superior to my old laptop but... it runs slower, the mouse action is awful, it's like stirring cold porridge.
Anyway, I have spent the first week battling with various bits, trying to get it to look & feel like my previous laptop using 2010.
The big issue I have is upon start up. Rather than loading the standard AutoCAD "drawing 1" regardless, I want to have the browser open up so I can select the' previous drawings loaded on my last session or select a new drawing or browse folders to find the drawing I want.
how I managed to switch this on, back when I managed it on 2010 version.I have given up on running up & down the menus.
Is it possible to tie the applications loaded in the Startup Suite to profiles? Many of our clients have speciic requirements and we have client-specific routines to quickly create their drawings and loading a profile that loads only their routines would be a time saver.

I have a number of .lsp routines that I have loaded into the startup suite. I have their location pathed correctly and at the top of the list in the support file search path under options.
Problem is...they load into the drawing when a drawing is opened, but they will not execute. If I type APPLOAD and re-load them individually, they all seem to work fine.
I'm only having this problem with the computers that are running 2012 in the office.
I have been getting fatal errors during my user account but not in my admin account. I logged in as admin and repaired Autocad Architecture 2010, using the system disk. I got back the report that Autocad was repaired. However, when I returned to my user account, I get an unhandled expection error when I start up Autocad.Architecture 2010. Do I need to uninstall Autocad Architecture 2010 and then reinstall or should I just pick the option to reinstall Autocad Architecture and then do I have to another registration code?

Why autocad always starts up with 2 layout tabs available on the drawing. In the template that I have created only one layout tab is available and if I create a new drawing according to that template after startup, only one layout tab is available. The template that I have created is set as the basic template for autocad, so it starts up using this template.
Now I want autocad to startup with only one layout tab available.
my tool palette causes a systematic crash at startup .
is there a way to launch without opening toolpalettes .?
Just installed AutoCad 2012 and I have the Property Dailog Box open. I anchor it to the left side of the drawing screen and "Lock" all toolbars in place. When I get out and go back into Autocad, the dailog box is still locked, but it is in the middle of the drawing screen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat command turns off the annoying "selection dialog box"? I don't know if it's new or not, but it started showing up this week. I see the purpose, but don't like it or the fact that autocad makes difficult to turn off a feature after it puts it there without warning. Attached is a screen shot of it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAnytime I try to add a custom scale either by selecting the "custom scale" option from the paperspace viewport scale menu or by entering the command SCALELISTEDIT manually, the dialog box doesn't appear.
It's not that the box isn't opening because all other buttons and functionality are restricted in AutoCAD until I hit escape to exit out of the command. It's as if it's opening on a separate monitor, except it doesn't appear on my secondary monitor when I plug it in either.
Is there a command where I can manually add a custom scale or a property that I can change to force the box to be docked?
My AutoCAD has started doing something different, I don't remember turning it on, and now I can't figure out how to turn it off.
What happens is when I hover the mouse near two or more objects a little blue box icon appears telling me that there is multiple objects there. Then, if I click, it asks me which object I want to select. URL....
When opening AutoCAD 2010, I get an error message "Unable to load profile...". This happened unexplicably. I have been using AutoCAD several months with no problems. One annoying consequence is that dialog boxes do not display. For example, running DIMSTYLE does not open the Dimension Style dialog box; instead, a list of options such as ANnotative, Save, and Restore appears. How do I get back to normal?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI started having this problem today: Whenever I try to insert a block (either from the command line or the pull-down menu), the dialog box appears for a fraction of a second and immediately vanishes. There are no options on the command line after this, and the main window loses focus. At first I thought it was somehow ending up behind the main window, but that's not the case. Hitting escape brings focus back and the program runs fine otherwise until I try and use the insert command again.
I installed the SP1 update earlier today, but this problem didn't start happening until hours after that. I then tried to do a fresh install, and the problem was still there before I reinstalled SP1, so I don't think that's the problem.
This first starting happening after creating a block, the same way I always do, but I don't see what I could've done. This problem isn't limited to a specific drawing of mine, it happens with all my files as well as new ones.
How could I be bringing up the Rename Dialog Box when I am in the Layer Dialog Box creating new layers? It seems to happen from now and again mostly when I go to change the color of the new layer. This shouldn't be an issue but once the box comes up, all my work inside the layer dialog box will be lost when I close it and reopen it.
Doesn't matter if I pick "OK" "CLOSE" or the "X" in the upper right hand corner of the box. Rename command, just what I hit, strike or click that brings it up and hopefully a means to change my CUI so I don't do it anymore.
I'm new to AutoCAD 2011 (from AutoCAD-14). Is it possible to make the properties dialog box function like it did in AutoCAD-14?If not, can I remove some of the items in the properties dialog box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am difficulty getting the options dialog box to open (under the file menu "red A" dropdown list, options button). When I click on it, all of the buttons on top go gray and nothing appears. When I click on the black workspace, I get a compluter bell sound.

I have several lisp routines I have been using since Acad 2002 (with occasional minor revisions) for my title blocks that open up a dialog boxes. None of the lisps I have that should open up a dialog box are working in a fresh 2012 install.
The lisps work in 2010 but not in 2012. I searched through the boards and found some info but it hasn't worked (made sure ATTREQ & ATTDIA set to 1).
Here is one the lisps in question:
(defun c:title(/ archl sqftl filel datel salel namel builderl planl subdivision1l subdivision2l plana planb year month day rb1 rb2 rb3 insp1)
(setvar "cmdecho" 1)
(command "attdia" "0")
(command "-osnap" "none")
(setq dcl_id (load_dialog "tools.dcl"))
[code]...........
I have tried changing the attdia value to 1 in the lisp but the result is the same. The command fails at the same spot:
Command: TITLE attdia Enter new value for ATTDIA <1>: 0
Command: -osnap Enter list of object snap modes: none
Command: nil
If I use -insert I can get the blocks to run by typing all the information at the command line but I want my dialog boxes back!
