AutoCAD 2013 :: Perpendicular Osnap Not Working Correctly With Closed Polylines Grips
Dec 30, 2012
Just found the issue with my AC2013.
A bit of difference is that the polylines do not have to be even closed. Any polyline gives me exactly the described behaviour, which is definitely not intended. Appears still not resolved.

Thats pretty much it. While pressing F3 to toggle Osnap, if Ortho is ON it first turns it off and then F3 would toggle Osnap. The same thing happens with F8 if Osnap is ON.
I checked out the CUI and for some reazon it had a lot of different shortcuts to toggle Osnap and Ortho, so I thought just keeping F3 and F8 would make it work, but it does the same thing.

How to turn on the perpendicular osnap. Whenever i open the draft settings window and get close to the perpendicular name it changes to midpoint. I can not seem to select the perpendicular name.

I have a drawing (c3d 2013) provided by a subcontractor that contains high density laser scan data in the form of Acad solids. I have a bunch of conventional QC shots on the same objects, that I would like to compare to the scan data.
I can bring the QC shots into the scan drawing as cogo points, but when I try to measure the distance to the face of the solid, I can't get the perpendicular 3d osnap to grab the solid.

I quite often like to use the wall grips to adjust the length of a wall. This works really well accept for the occasional situation were I want to snap to the face of another wall rather than the justification line. I know that I can snap to the face of a wall rather than the justification line because I have some files that it works fine in and other files that it does not work in.

Just upgraded from 2012 to 2013.....Why did they change the way you stretch a wall with grips???? Now, I cannot align a wall perpendicular to the inside of another wall, only the outside edge/face....Is there a fix or setting I am not aware of?

I need the perpendicular distance between 2 polylines. If I was doing this manually, I would draw a line perp from 1 side and extend it to the other side, check it's length, and delete it. These are pipeline r/w's that quite often have variable width, and are not always parallel.
I am asking the user to select the pline 1st (GetEntity) to get some object data. Then I prompt for a point on the pline where a block will be placed. The block contains an attribute definition for the width. I check to make sure the point is on the pline. I was hoping I could get the user to select a point on the opposite side and force that to be perp. That would give me the width but it doesn't work. I have looked at GetFirstDerivative and rotate that 90 but the examples I found use a certain length. The perp length is what I need to determine.

In AutoCAD 2011 and 2012 my spell check instantly recognizes a misspelled word as soon as you enter a space after the word as you type.
AutoCAD 2013 does not recognize the misspelling until I go back (still within the text editor) and click on the word. Only then will it show the red underline. This is using Dtext only. Mtext works fine.
For the bad spellers or missed keystrokes, the fast "on the fly" spell checking was great. How to get my AutoCAD 2013 to behave similarly?

How do i convert a series of polylines to one closed polygon (so i can calculate an area, hatch it, etc)?

I am trying to import a complex curve from autocad lt (in my case an airfoil), to create parts. I have drawn the curve in autocad lt as a polyline. Autocad lt treats the curve as a single object, and seems to understand it as a closed loop.
When I import the curve into Inventor lt, Inventor treats the curve as a series of unconnected line segments. What can I do in either Autocad lt or Inventor lt to get Inventor to treat the curve as a single object, so that I can then extrude it?

Basicaly I have a plan of a part of a city and I want to fill the houses with a solid hatch, I was wondering if I could do them all at once instead of picking an internal point one by one (there are a lot of them!).

I have a piece of code that needs closed polylines.
I use the following selectionfilter to filter the selection so I can only select closed polylines:
Dim sf As New SelectionFilter(New TypedValue() {New TypedValue(0, "LWPOLYLINE"), New TypedValue(70, 1)})
Today I noticed that in some drawings this filter won't select all the closed polylines for me.
After some experimenting I found the 'linetype generation' property of the polylines to be the problem. If this is enabled the above filter will not let me select a closed polyline. If I disable it, there is no problem.
How can I make my code for selecting closed polylines more robust? Is there a 'TypedValue' for closed polylines with the linetype generation enabled?

I have a series of boxes or polygones that I would like the program to find the 1/2 distance and create two seperate polylines from the one object.
Example:
I have a square with pt1,pt2, pt3 and pt4 respectively. After I have ran the program it would create a diagonal from pt1 to pt3 and join the rest of the lines now to create the one polyline. Also it would do the same to create another exact polygonal shape for the other half. Thus creating two shapes of equal value from one.

I'm trying to create about 150 cross-sections, each consisting of 9 closed polylines of which I have created the coordinates. My issue is making the list of coordinates create separate polylines instead of one enormous polyline. Any way to setup the columns, perhaps with blank rows, some way of applying ASCII code, etc. to automatically break up these polylines? (even if they aren't closed that's fine, I just need to make the polylines separate.)

I need to segregate closed polylines in my drawing by area range. Ideally, I would input the number of ranges I need.
Then somehow find the smallest and largest pline area to determine the range values (rounding up to a sensble number)
Then with the ranges determined the polylines would be segregated and moved to new layers.
I've been trying to hobble together pieces but with no joy.

We've tried every command imaginable. F3 doesn't work. Checked all setting is Drafting Settings, (incl. 3d). Saved, and restarted.
No OSNAPs work in any command.

Why the “Osnap” is not working for the “hatch”?
For example, the hatch below consist of lines but the “Osnap” can’t see them! Then when trying to draw a line for the point indicated below to the end of the one of the hatch lines then the snap doesn’t indicate the “Endpoint”
Is there a way to let the hatch “feel” the snap?

Using ACA 2011 and Win7 here... and I've noticed that the apparent intersection osnap does not want to work at all while working in a layout if the geometry I'm trying to snap to is also drawn in the layout.
If the geometry is in model space that osnap will work fine both in model space (through the viewport) and from outside the viewport.

So you know how we have the snaps endpoint, perpendicular, midpoint etc. I want to find something like the snap "perpendicular."
Any way to start a line/pline then have it snap to another line at a 45° angle instead of perpendicular?
The only thing I could find was here

but I am not sure what all they are trying to do.

While drawing with a number of oSnaps activated, at irregular intervals they all inexplicably turn off and are replaced with the Near oSnap only.
how I might be inadvertently doing this or why it might be happening on its own?

When trying to draw or stretch a line or grip along an object in 2013 it does not follow the osnap like it does in 2012. For instance if I draw a line and then want to draw another line from the beginning of that line along that line using the nearest osnap and inputting a distance, the line follows the cursor rather than the snap.

How to turn off osnap for objects under wipeouts?
It is annoying that although the objects under wipeout are not shown, they still become targets of osnap!

I thought there was a setting for this? I want to adjust the Osnaps so they appear further away from the point. IE: As I want to pick the quadrant I have to get so close to the quadrant before the osnap shows. I can't remember the variable to adjust this distance.

I just started using the Autocad 2014, and noticed that there are a lot of symbols appearing next to my lines to show that the lines are horizontal and also perpendicular. Is there a way to switch these off? I can cross it out in every corner, but would prefer if it didn't appear to start with.
The second problem I have is when I try to use the align command. The boxes don't align properly, and sometimes the shape is even distorted to a rectangle.
I have attached a couple of print screens to show what I mean. In the second image the boxes rotate rather than align to the new shape.

I've noticed some issues with Osnap tracking not working consistently with a floating command line. It seems to happen especially when trying to track back along an object.
No problems whatsoever when command line is docked.

My company uses a menu system to organize standard symbols. The problem is that every time I insert one of these symbols I have to reset my Osnap settings because it clears all the check boxes.

I have recently upgraded from LT2011 TO Architecture 2013. I always use perpendicular tracking when copy and pasting but when I want to copy (or paste) a certain distance perpendicular to that object it doesn't like it. It's tricky to explain but say I wanted to copy a block of a teble 1200mm from the original block I'd copy, hover over the basepoint and move my cursor in the intended direction and type in 1200 and enter. The previous version of AutoCAD worked this command fine but since the upgrade I'm having trouble. Surely it's something as simple as changing the drafting settings bit I've gone through them all and no luck.

In my AutoCAD 2014, after selecting a grip on an object or a point it will snap to other grip points even when osnap is turned off. Is there a command or variable to turn what appears to be an auto grip snap function off?

I would like to add or customize my multifunction grips. For example, at a pline vertex the m-f grip allows me to stretch, add, or remove it. One thing I'ld like to add is to break the pline at that vertex. It would be faster to use m-f grips than the pull-down menu item I have.
