AutoCAD 2013 :: Pasting Lisp To Command Line Takes Extremely Long Time To Display?

Jul 22, 2013

I've used AutoCAD 2013 on other machines and have no had this issue.

When pasting to the command line there is a huge delay from when I hit CTRL-V until the actual text is displayed in the command line. It takes roughly 4.5 seconds for the following to display after pasting:  (command "-view" "D" "*"). The time it takes is roughly the same and does not depend on the size of the lisp that I'm pasting.

 The command bar is docked to the bottom and there is no transparancy enabled.I have tried setting AUTOCOMPLETEDELAY to 0 and 10 with no change.I have completely disabled all Auto-Complete options and it still happens.
 
There is also a significant delay between Auto-Complete populating the list of suggestions and when I am able to use the arrow keys to move the selection box down to pick a command.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Line Appears Again After Plot Command?

May 15, 2012

I press CTRL+9 to make the Command Line disappear while drawing. When I plot (or when doing a plot preview) , the Command Line appears again by itself. So I always have to turn the Command Line off manually after each plot

The bug still happens;

- if Dynamic Input is turned off or on
- if I plot to a real device or in PDF
- if the Cammand Line Palette i docked or floating.

This is not an issue in AutoCAD 2012 so I guess it has to do with the new way they programmed the revamped Command Line palette in 2013.

AutoCad 2D :: Any Command That Actually Splits A Line Into 3 Equal-length Lines?

Jan 23, 2014

I have a line that i would ideally like to divide into 3 equal segments. The divide command places points along the line, but I can't snap to them.

I know that I can place a block at each point which I could snap to, but is there a way of doing it without creating a block? Also is there a command that actually splits a line into 3 equal-length lines?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing Graphics Still Display When CLOSE Command Invoked

Apr 16, 2013

I've seen this happen with a couple of the previous releases, but not for some time.  After the CLOSE command is issued, the drawing graphics remain displayed but no AutoCAD specific keyboard or mouse input is accepted.  More of an annoyance, I guess, as Control + O will then allow opening of another drawing file.  This just started today for no apparent reason after using 2014 for the past week or so.  Prior to this happening, my workstation locked up completely while trying to close a CAD file and Task Manager wouldn't take any input.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Trim Command Skipping Lines?

Oct 1, 2013

When I initiate the trim command with a double enter (i.e. select all mode), I usually first zoom into the area I want to trim so I see no other objects, then start the trim <Enter><Enter> option, then pick the lines I want to trim.  Even if these extend off the screen and cross other objects (not seen on the screen), they usually trim off completely.  However, on occassion they don't.  To replicate the problem try this:

Draw 2 vertical lines and 2 horizontal intersecting (like noughts and crosses)Draw a horizontal line that intersects both vertical lines but up near the top of those linesZoom in so you only see the square and extending lines (but not the short horizontal line)Trim <Enter> <Enter> and pick from bottom right to top left (i.e. around the squareZoom out.

The square is trimmed, however there are 2 line fragments left above the horizontal short line.

Fix: UndoTrim the same way and presto, it now works I found if I then moved the line above (so only a small amount), zoomed in again, tried to trim - same error.

AutoCad 3D :: Erratic Lines In FLATSHOT Command 2013

Sep 24, 2012

I produce a lot of "Exploded View" style drawings for our equipment for assembly drawings and Operators Manuals. I model everything in 3D, set the perspective view, adjust the view I like, then use the Flatshot command to make 2D lines and arcs verions of the view to put into paperspace. Then item bubbles, notes, whatever. as of the last week, my flatshots, if they include a hex bolt head in the view, the arcs on the faces of the flats will be really stretched and skewed decidley toward the vanishing point in the completion of the Flatshot command. It does not happen on other arcs that may be in the model, seems to be exclusive with the hex. I doesn't happen if I do not make the view pespective but leave it "Parallell".

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cut Line Command?

Apr 13, 2013

I've been searching for a command that could actually cut lines for purpose. For example, if I'm drawing a 2 line crossed, wish I could cut the 2 lines so they are now 4 segments. On a circle, I could actually draw a line that pass trough the circle on cut it off the way I wish. Does such command exists for autoCAD? Very often, I've many lines at the same time that I wish I could cut with a single one. The problem is that I don't wish to trim 'em and extend (losing time and long process). Sure there is also the div cmd, but this isn't what I'm seeking for.

AutoCad :: Build / Download Linetype That Can Display As Thick Dashed Line Surrounded By 2 Parallel Lines

Dec 4, 2009

Any way to build or download a linetype that can display as a thick dashed line surrounded by 2 parallel lines on either side of it?

We use them to denote underground stormwater pipes in our survey models.

Currently I need to manually set each line to a polyline, give it a global width, and then draw a DLINE of the same width from endpoint to endpoint. The down side is that not only is it laborious, I also have to set the Z values to zero, so we lose the elevation feature of the pipe in the model.

Ideally it would need to have enough functionality to alter the spacing of the dashes, and the width of the line.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Change Display Of Linetypes To Show As Solid Instead Of As Two Lines

I can't remember the option how to change the display of linetypes to show as solid instead of as two lines. I think this may be something to do with the 'solidfill' option.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Closing Command Line

Apr 3, 2012

I turned off the command line because I don't use it or need it on my screen.  But each time after I do a plot preview the stupid thing automatically turns itself back on.

Is there a way to permanently turn this thing off because apparently hitting the "x" on the toolbar isn't working correctly.

Also, why did they do away with the flyout option on the commandline.  At least then I could dock it somewhere and collapse it.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Line Prompts

Apr 6, 2013

As an Autocad user since Rel. 2.1. My favorite is when attempts to draw a line using feet and inch input while units are set to decimal. How "Point or option keyword required" is supposed to guide using the correct units setting? With DYN Input on, the red outline offers even less information. Are the prompts user editable?

Is there a way to set a profile by the command line instead of through OPTIONS? I'm contract and do not have admin rights on the PC so I can't change the startup target to my profile.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Line Is Off Screen?

Jul 13, 2012

My command line is partially off the screen as shown in the attachments below. It started doing this after a reboot this morning.  I can't drag it, select it, or find a way to move it in any way.  I tried changing the resolution of my monitor thinking it might "bump" it back on the screen.  I'm probably missing something easy but I can't seem to make any difference.  Is there a command to prevent the floating option?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Put Spaces In Command Line Input

Oct 1, 2012

I want record a macro to update a title block. We've revised the formatting of our title block.  The block name is the same, only some appearances change.

I noticed in the insert command, "You can replace an existing block definition with an external file by entering block name=file name."  This would be great.  I could just type in the block name and the file name and AutoCAD would replace the current with the new version in the file.  Then do an ATTSYNC and we're done.

*EXCEPT*

The path and the block name both have spaces in them.  Is there any way to make AutoCAD stop taking the space as a return?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Line Won't Stay Where Required

Nov 28, 2012

I like my command line to be near the left hand corner and not "docked" (meaning taking up the entire bottom of the screen) like this:But each time I plot, and open AutoCAD 2013, It snaps back to the middle like this:

I've tried saving my workspace (I'm very familiar with customizing and how that all works) but it just always snaps to the middle.I really like the floating command line and found that if I have it just to the right of my UCS icon at the bottom left of my screen, it's out of my way, but gives me the lines of info I want.

How to make it stay near the corner and not snap back to the middle?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Autolisp Expressions On Command Line?

Oct 16, 2012

For as long as I have been using Autocad (10 yrs), if I typed an autolisp expression (in brackets) on the command line any output from the espression was echoed to the command line.

E.g. I type (+ 2 2) on the command line and Autocad returns with 4.

I installed SP 1 for Autocad 2013 and this bevaviour ceased, i.e. 4 did not appear in the command window although it did appear on the text screen.

I then un-installed SP1 and "normal" behavior resumed. 

When SP 1.1 came out I installed that and again find that I do not get the returns from autolisp functions eched to the command window, only to the text screen.

I have now uninstalled SP 1.1, which I sort of hate to do, because I use those one line Autolisp functions quite alot.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Prompt Only Shows Last Line

May 1, 2013

We (the entire office) haven't had this issue in 2012, but in all of our 2013 installations, this is occurring.

In 2012, several rows are displayed in the command prompt, say for example you do a distance command, there are two rows of text showing the information the user might want to see.  It displays the first row of, distance, the angle in XY plane and the angle from XY plane.  The second row displays the delta X, delta Y and delta Z.

In 2013, it only displays delta X, delta Y and delta Z.  The user have to hit "F2" to invoke the "AutoCAD Text Window" to view the first line of text.

I hope there is a variable setting for this, and not an oversight by Autodesk.

AutoCad :: Options Window Not Display When Typing Options In Command Line Or Selecting From Drop Down

The options window will not display when typing "options" in the command line or selecting from the drop down. The options menu has to be hidden somewhere because AutoCad will not allow any other commands after typing options until I hit escape. I have tried restarting CAD and rebooting my computer with not luck.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Command Line History Doesn't Scroll?

Aug 28, 2013

Why is it that when I click in the command line history field (when docked) and roll the mouse wheel I can't scroll it up or down? There is no visible scroll bar until the cursor is moved to the other side of the window (a long way on the 30" display), and grabbing this will scroll the command history, yet the wheel wont work.

If the command line is undocked and the disclosure triangle is clicked to display the history, the scroll wheel DOES scroll the list.
