The problem is that AutoCAD 2010, does not recognize any object snap commands, all the other comands work just fine.
I have reinstalled the program and don´t work.
What could be?
Object Snap.jpg I want to pick the point where the circle hits the edge of the box but there seems to be no Intersection there. But they are on the same plane!

View 3 Replies View RelatedFor as long as I can remember, across all versions of Autocad, I've had problems picking the right item on the popup menu for object snap (shift-right click). It frequently picks the item below the intended one, i.e. it will pick Parallel rather than Perpendicular. Trying a second time works every time. This problem has been so consistent that I don't believe it is user error. The item is highlighted, after all. There is no way I'm repeatedly missing it. Is it possible to calibrate the mouse in Autocad?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've got most of my most commonly used keyboard commands changed to simplified versions that suit me, however, I have not figured out how to change the snap commands. I still type "nea" and "per" to snap to nearest and perpendicular. How do I change these?
Also, how do you change the F keys?
I have snap on, and Im drawing as usual. At some point I want to mirror something:
MIRROR
-select object, done, enter,
-select two dots of the axis
in this phase, where I'm supposed to pick the points, snap turns off, or stops working. I turn it on and off, I uncheck all the options, check them again.
How to keep the snap mode settings from disappearing after certain commands. For example every time I use a lisp routine I have to go and reset my settings because they are no longer the way I had them set before I performed the lisp command.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIm using AutoCAD 09 for the first time and need to find out how to customise my snap commands to F keys. I've been using 2004 and it was really easy. 09 seems to not allow it?
for example i set F4 to end point and F5 to intersection point etc. it saves using O snap or a tab. just L, F4 and its done (for example)
I have a rather simple 3rd party custom object... I tried to get its bounding box but the coordinates that come back don't seem to relate at all to the object.
What I'd like are the coordinates of two nodes the object contains...
Is it possible to apply the autocad cursor in some why with the node object snap to get their coordinates?
I'm trying to snap one object to the other with vert snap.
It's trying to snap from the center of my object rather then the vert I am hovering over. In the Snap settings I have only "vertex" checked so it should snap to whatever vertex I hover over but no...This keeps up I'm going back to 2008 when all this worked fine.
I'm trying to do the drawings of the parts i have made in Inventor but I'm having trouble inserting the centerlines in the holes. Basically, inventor doesn't recognise the centers of the holes in the correct place, so the centerlines can't be put in the center of them. By example, it makes the center of the holes in the lines created by the walls of the hole instead of of making the centers in the center of the hole.

Is there any way of finding out what objects (lines) don’t quite join together and enclose the space I am trying to hatch/fill within. I'm going round all the corners and intersections with the 'fillet' command just in case I miss something but couldn't imagine doing this if there were lots of corners in a complicated drawing. Would be so time consuming! I've tried using the boundary command but it doesn't recognise the enclosed area (perhaps because it's not fully enclosed because one of the corners doesn't quite join?). Any way CAD would be able to detect which corner doesn't quite join?

I'm looking for comments here- Was this a "bug" in AutoCAD 2013 or what?
I teach AutoCAD to high school kids via "cyber school" and one of my students was sending me drawings on which the SNAP was NOT "snapping" parallel to the X axis and the GRID was not present at all-
Here's what I discovered (This is what I wrote to the student):
Your software is AUTOCAD DESIGN SUITE Ultimate 2013 (Student Version)
Your LIMITS are correctly set to 0,0 and 12,9
GRID and SNAP are both set to .25
The problem:
1. The GRID does NOT display no matter what settings are chosen under the GRID command or within the Drafting Settings dialog box on the Grid and Snap tab.
2. The SNAP function does not create VERTICAL and HORIZONTAL lines.
(The SNAP function is not alignning with the X and Y axes.)
When I opened your latest drawing (9.1) and drew a 12 by 9 rectangle using coordinate input (L <enter> 0,0<enter> 12,0<enter> 12,9<enter> 0,9<enter> c<enter>), the resulting rectangle was a bit “off-SNAP”.
That shouldn’t happen.
I Googled “AUTOCAD GRID OFF” and any other combination I could think off.
Though I was able to read dozens of queries about various SNAP and GRID issues, NONE that I found addressed this issue.
I confirmed that SNAP was on and started the LINE command.
As I moved the mouse I watched the coordinates displayed next to the crosshairs.
As I “snapped” from point to point the coordinates SHOULD have always displayed increments of ¼ (.25, .75, 1.0, 1.25, etc) but they did NOT.
As I moved away from the origin (0,0) the ever-growing error could be seen in the coordinate display at the crosshairs.
It was as if the SNAP function was NOT following a “perfect” vertical/horizontal orientation as it moved.
To confirm that I drew a line using coordinates: 0,9 as the start point and 12,9 as the next point.
I restarted the line command and “picked” a start point guided by “snap” that was “close” to the first start point (It wasn’t perfectly on the first line’s start point due the anomaly mentioned in my first paragraph.) and then picked a second point that was “close” to the first line’s endpoint.
The 2 lines were not parallel.
The line drawn with SNAP to dictate its start and endpoints was simply not “horizontal”.
The “Y” coordinate of the start and end points on that line were slightly different.
Somehow the SNAP function was not “snapping” in alignment with the X and Y axes.
After experimenting with settings I found a solution.
But why the solution worked I DO NOT KNOW.
It isn’t “LOGICAL”.
As I typed the command SNAP I saw that command “suggestions” were displayed next to the crosshairs.
I selected these snap options one at a time and through this experimentation I stumbled onto the solution.
The command which “worked” was a command called SNAPANG. In 30 years of working in AutoCAD, both 2D and 3D, I have never used the command SNAPANG.
However, nothing ventured, nothing gained:
I typed the command SNAPANG <enter> then typed 1 <enter>.
Nothing changed.
I reentered the command SNAPANG and then entered the previous value 0 (zero) thinking that I was restoring it to its previous setting and suddenly the GRID appeared and the SNAP followed with perfect alignment with the GRID and in perfect alignment with the X and Y axes. As I entered the LINE command and watched the coordinates displayed at the crosshairs they were now in perfect increments of .25.
As I said initially, since the two command-driven settings that I entered should have simply reversed one another, I have gone into this great detail because I will send this on to AutoCAD’s support people and see if they have any comment. It must be a “bug” in the new version of AutoCAD.
can I snap an object/vertex/edge to another object straight in one axis?
I'm coming from Rhino 3d, where this is possible by holding the shift key.

We've got a sketched symbol that locates to the center of holes on a part.Problem is, the symbol either doesn't recognize the hole's center and even if it does, the center of the symbol (the designated insertion point) jumps to the edge of the hole.I've even recreated the symbol and I get the same effect.

Printer - Canon Pixma Pro 9500
Problem-
I recently installed Photoshop CS4. I still have CS3 installed. When I go to print from CS4, it prompts me that there is no printer installed on my pc. (CS3 will still print without issues). I have downloaded and installed the latest and greatest drivers for my Canon Pixma Pro 9500. I have tried recreating the Photoshop preference file and still no good on either attempted solution. I even tried unistalling CS3 - no good.
How do I "convince" Photoshop CS4 that printer software and drivers exist on my pc?
