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.
Using Windows7
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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with AutoCad 2013 crashing. While running the program when I use the open command dialog box if I re-name a file, create a folder, or copy a file autocad goes unresponsive and crashes immediately afterward. I have installed the service pack and update my video card driver trying to fix the problem. I used to be able to perform everything mentioned above in AutoCad 2010 without any problems. I don't think its my computer causing the problem because everyone else in my office is having the same issue with 2013.

Does the ribbon function not work on the language pack autocad one?
i use the hplayer command which changes the layer when i open the hatch command. i am sure when i closed it in the past it then changes the layer back to my current layer. now it gets stuck on my 'hatch' layer and i have to manually change the layer to 'current'.
is there a reactor or is it part of the command?
I noticed that when I open the command window with F2, the scroll bar is missing
I suppose there's some new variable in 2013 that has to be set but can't find it
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.
I can use xrefs on different project but right now on autocaddLT 2014 it doesn't work.

I had a background mask on the mtext and when it came into paper space, the height of the text box displayed right but the width stayed the same as it was in model space. I played around with column settings and also the WYSIWYG in editor settings. Nothing seemed to make difference. What am I missing? Using autocad 2014

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?

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?

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?
I have a problem with the Send Command, when I use it the email is sent without text.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen 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.
Having trouble with the display order command? It does not work when you right click or when you type in the command. It says command unkown.

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?
