AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Copy Sets Base Point To 0 / 0 / 0 And Objects Vanish

May 8, 2013

Using the Copy(multiple) command button with the following sequence (working correctly): Copy command, window objects to copy, right click to close selection, pick base point,

pick new location point(s),...right click to close the command.But sometimes it decides to do this: Using the same Copy(multiple) command button with the following sequence (not working correctly):

Copy command, window objects to copy, right click to close selection, pick base point..At this point the copy comand closes out.  It has assumed a single copy, 0,0,0 base point

& tossed the copied objects out in model space accordingly. But as stated it only does this periodically.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Copy And Move Command But Not With Copy With Base Point

Apr 21, 2013

I have a 3D file (not of my creation) that gives me some problems when I try to copy it (it is a 3D building).

The problem is that, when i click on "copy" command, I can select a point but then AutoCAD crashes and it takes about 30 seconds to return working a normal way and permit me to paste it. (it happens with "move" command too)

Otherwise, if I use "copy with base point" I have no problems: after a second I can paste it where I want.

How can it be possible? Cause if sometimes I mistake and digit "copy", I always have to wait the long Autocad response.

This problem happens with both autocad 2012 and 2013 and it doesn't happen with other 3D files I have. The drawing is made mainly of meshes.

I have a Dell notebook and a NVIDIA Quadro 2000M video card, so you can understand I don't like this problems: I spent a lot of money for something I hoped could work well with AutoCAD. 

About that, aren't there drivers for the graphic card? Cause when I click on "check for updates", autocad says me that there are newer version of the driver, but then it says me that it is impossible to update it (I have a connession and a student version).

AutoCAD 2010 :: Copy With Base Point Command - Different Axis When Pasted

Jul 9, 2012

When I use the copy with base point command in paper space and try to paste it into paper space of another drawing it seems to come in on a different axis or something. I can see the view ports as they are supposed to be however the text just shows as a line. It would be as if I were to put text in model space on top view and see it just fine then go to a front view and see just a line.

Jun 21, 2011

We have upgraded to AutoCAD Mechanical 2012, and I am having a little trouble finding where AutoDesk has relocated a few of the 2009 commands.

Where is the new location for Copy With Base Point? I used to go EDIT > Copy With Base Point.

I am enjoying a lot of the new features of AM 2012. It will just take a while to get used to where everything is at.

AutoCad :: Copy With Base Point And Paste Into Drawing

Mar 16, 2012

When I download a drawing from some suppliers I find that I cannot do a "copy with base point" and paste that copy into my drawing except using "paste special" which leaves me with an unmanageable image. The source drawing has all the normal (it seems) attributes of a .dwg file and can be edited as a normal drawing; it just refuses to be "pasted" into my drawing. What am I missing here!

AutoCad :: Insert Block - Switch Between Base-point And 0,0,0 Point?

Apr 29, 2013

I'm inserting blocks into my drawing and the block has a basepoint and a 0,0,0 point. The CAD guy who usually works with me is off today but he has a keyboard method of switching between the 2 points when inserting the block.

Its a fairly straight forward thing on his keyboard, nothing he has set up but standard in autocad.

I've had a try hitting a few keyboard buttons this morning but can't seem to do it.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Lost The Multiple Copy Command?

Nov 1, 2013

how to add macros to my ACAD 2014 to count blocks, I managed to lose the "copym" command while trying to figure how to create a button in the user interface found in the ribbon bar under the customization tab...when I type copym into the command line, it wants to prompt me to finish the command string using the command "copymode" and doesn't even see that the command "copym" even exists in the list that is created. (the list that's created by an autocomplete function)

I found the command in the list while making a pull down menu item selection button for "copym" utilizing the user interface in the ribbon. I drug the command info for "copym"  to the menu bar using the user interface feature. The command is there, all the info seems to be correct, I even managed to make a menu selection for it in the pull down menu. But when I select that menu item, the command line says: UNKNOWN COMMAND "COPYM" Press f1 for help.

I think I accidentally deleted something, just wondering how I can get my "copym" command function back into AutoCAD from never-never land.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cannot COPY / PASTE Text Into Command Line

Jul 9, 2013

I am using AutoCad 2014

I want to paste text (numbers) into the command line as I am drawing a line.

In AutoCad 2011/2012 if I paste (CTRL+V), then the numbers in the clipboard will be pasted into the command line and all I have to do is push enter.

In AutoCad 2014 if I paste (CTRL+V), AutoCad will paste the clipboard contents as an mtext object into the drawing.

How do I change the behavior of AutoCad so that I can use "CTRL+V" in the command line?


For clarification these are the exact steps I am trying to do:

1. {type L}

2. {click a point in the drawing}
3. {type CTRL+V} // paste a number as a distance into command line
4. {type ENTER}  

I know I  can right click the command line and select paste. This option is unnacceptable for my use. I want to be able to CTRL+V text into the command line.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Creating New Layout And Zooming To Correct Region In View Port - Objects Vanish

Aug 28, 2012

We have a map of our primary lines in an ESRI .shp file, that superimposes nicely on our other shape files, for shoreline and rivers and everything else, that works fine. As part of some project planning I'm doing, I'm making a series of layouts, each taking a snapshot of an area, with a revision cloud around the lines we're planning to replace. 

I loaded the map up this morning and everything was as I saved it, but as I was creating a new layout and zooming to the correct region in my view port, every single revision cloud I drew disappeared. As did all the annotations and other labels I'd made - absolutely everything that isn't from a database just up and vanished. 

I've turned off all the database links, there's nothing covering them up, I had none of them selected and used no delete commands, all I did was create a new layout via copy and adjust the viewport on it, they're just gone.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Objects Sharing Even A Common Point Seem Glued Together

Apr 6, 2013

I run the AutoCAD 2013 student version on Windows 7. I have rather little in-depth knowledge of AutoCAD and its countless parameters whose values seem to control the general settings. This is probably the issue of yet another one of those parameters.

Just yesterday as I was drafting on my laptop all of a sudden these annoying constraints started to appear all around. I somehow switched them off but ever since then, whenever two objects share even a point (or a line, for that matter, as this is simply a multitude of points), they seem to be "glued" together at that point - if I select one of the objects and try to move it, scale it, drag the shared point around to model the object ect., the other object (the one it's glued to) is skewed about that particular shared point (or line) so that it keeps being a common element of both. I figured that I have somehow told AutoCAD to regard this as some sort of constraint but how I did it or how to undo it. I tried CONSTRAINTINFER, which was set to 1, and changed it to 0, bu to no effect.
