AutoCAD 2013 :: Move / Copy / Stretch Commands With Snapping?

Jul 19, 2013

I use the right mouse click command as my enter. But for the past couple of days when I try to use the move, copy, stretch commands, everytime I go to select a base point - autocad selects the point and then automatically snaps or displaces to a random point off of the screen. I don't know if this has something to do with the right mouse click or not, but I can't figure out why it keeps snapping off screen. If I switch and use the enter key or space bar as enter the problem goes away.

examples:

Command: s STRETCH
Select objects to stretch by crossing-window or crossing-polygon...
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 13 found
Select objects:
Specify base point or [Displacement] <Displacement>:
Specify displacement <0'-0", 0'-0", 0'-0">:

Command: m MOVE
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 43 found
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 27 found (14 duplicate), 56 total
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 18 found (14 duplicate), 60 total
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 14 found (4 duplicate), 70 total
Select objects:
Specify base point or [Displacement] <Displacement>:
Specify displacement <0'-0", 0'-0", 0'-0">:

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Stretch Or Move A Line Using Grips

Jul 18, 2013

When trying to stretch of move a line in AutoCAD using the grips, it will move additional lines that are touching. It does not do this for every line in the DWG. It seems to be random. They are not grouped. What could be the problem.

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 2D :: Why Don't Snapping Commands Work With Polylines

Jun 28, 2012

When I type PL for polyline and then END or MID or PER they don't work, but they do for lines? Any way to change this? When I manually type in any of these snap commands my OSNAP settings turn off.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Move / Copy Blocks With Attributes

Feb 10, 2013

My entire office has been experiencing drawing crashes as a result of moving or copying certain blocks within a dwg.  The problem seems to occur only while executing a Move or Copy command on a block with attributes, and zooming or panning while doing so.  My heart sinks instantly because the block will disappear when placed, and I know I am doomed to crash.  

I am usually able to pan or zoom a few times, and if I act quickly a Save will work before the drawing then crashes.  We have recently switched from 2011 to Civil 3D 2013, and the problem still persists. The two culprits are our slope arrow block as well as hex call-out.  Both blocks contain attributes and are frequently used through out our drawings, and this problem proves to be most frustrating when pressed for a deadline.

AutoCad :: Move Command Acting Like Stretch

Nov 22, 2012

Whenever I use the move command on a line or series of lines that are touching other lines, the lines that aren't part of my selection move with that one line. cad-movecommand.jpg Here's a series of screenshots showing what I mean. I can't move just that line without moving the other lines around it.

AutoCAD LT :: Copy And Paste Commands

Oct 4, 2013

I have been having a problem with AutoCad 2012 LT when a am working in the model space I can you the ctrl c and ctrl p commands for a short amount of time and then they will not work. I can open a different model space and they will work in that one, but when I go back to the original one the will not work. I have tried shutting down autocad and the computer, but when I open everything back up the commands still will not work in that model space. I have reinstalled autocad and that brings them back for a short amount of time.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Limit A Stretch Or Move But With A Variable Value?

Dec 17, 2011

I would like to find a way to give a maximum and minimum length to a stretch (or move) but without absolute values.

simplified example of my block:

I have 2 squares, of which one big on, and a smaller one within the bigger one. I want to be able to stretch both squared indefinatly (no problem there), but the big square may never become smaller than the small one, and the small one may never become bigger than the big one...

In other words: the inside square should always stay inside the bigger one, no matter the size of the squares.

The problem with this block is that I have a hatch pattern between the squares, and as soon as i stretch the small square outside (or equal) to the big square... the hatch pattern 'crashes'.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Stretch / Move / Array Block

Jul 31, 2012

I need this block to do the following:

1. Move the right piece so it ends at 3', 4', & 5'.
2. the move right hook and 'backing' to stretch/copy (or array) so it adds a hook to the right and fills in the backing.

so this means that a 3' gets 4 hooks, 4' gets 5 hooks and 5' gets 6 hooks.

3. the block as shown is the smallest configuration with 3 hooks.

I could just set up a visibility and draw each one at it's appropriate length but I'm trying to keep this simple block to a min size. If all else fails, that's the route I'll take.

I've tried a couple different configurations and I keep getting duplicates or the end piece doesn't move the correct distance.

AutoCAD LT :: 2012 - Move And Stretch Base Point Selection

Feb 10, 2012

I select my objects to move, then I select my Base Point to move my objects away from, then when I select my destination point the command changes the Base Point to the selected destination point and asks me again to select a destination point.

I have realized this problem occurs not only with the move command, but also the stretch command. Also, it does not matter if I am using command modifiers or not, the problem occurs regardless.  Also, it does not matter how I hit enter using the command (keyboard enter button, space bar, or right mouse button) the problem occurs regardless, and occurs entirely AT RANDOM.

Following previous what I have attempted to resolve the problem:

 - remove the AutoCAD LT 2012 from the computer entirely and re-install

 - installed the latest LT 2012 Service Pack

 - changed the mouse to a new, wired mouse (I was already using a wired mouse in the first place)

 - change the keyboard (which I think is irrelevant since changing the mouse did not work either)

AutoCAD 2010 :: Move Or Stretch Objects That Reside In XREF?

Feb 22, 2012

Any commands or 3rd party applications that would allow me to move or stretch objects that reside in an XREF?

The cherry on top would be the ability to do this to only specific layers.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Architectural Detail - Move And Stretch Actions?

Jul 31, 2012

I'm trying combine a Move and Stretch Action such that the same handle MOVES the detail UP/DOWN and STRETCHes the detail RIGHT/LEFT while maintaining the base of the detail line at the reference line. Sounds confusing maybe but this is the most intuitive and elegant way to design it. However, I can't get it to work.

The attached detail achieves the same functionality but is a little clunky.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Freezes With Copy Or Mirror Commands

Jul 5, 2011

Just got AutoCad 2012.  Commands like Mirror and Copy which involve duplication (no problem with Move or Rotate, for example) will cause AutoCad to not respond for a few minutes. I believe it only is an issue with files brought forward from AutoCad 2000.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Zooming To Extents While Snapping From Endpoint?

Jul 17, 2012

While using V2013, the middle button on the mouse to pop up the snap chart (mbuttonpan set to 0), I'm getting the zoom extents command in the middle of a command using snap from, then snap endpoint.

Here a quick example:  while using hotkeys, I type c for copy-select objects-right click-choose basepoint, (here's where the problem occurs), middle mouse F(from) middle mouse E (endpoint).  If I middle mouse F (snap From) pause then middle mouse E (snap endpoint) this works as it should.  I click through the commands fast and it's slowing me down every time it zooms to extents in the middle of the command, which makes me zoom back in or cancel & undo.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimensions Not Snapping To Snaps In Paperspace

I have just upgraded to 2013 from 2012. When dimensioning my viewports in paperspace, I will snap using the linear or aligned dimension and it will appear to snap to the first point, but when I snap on the other end, it will go somewhere way off the viewport or give me a "0" dim.

Illustrator :: Move Dialog - Option / Enter To COPY And Move Object

Dec 24, 2012

What happened to the option/enter command in the move object dialog that has been around since the early days of Illustrator???  Instead of having to mouse click the "copy" button in the move object window, one could just hold down option with Return or Enter and the Copy command would happen rather than a simple move.  Immensely useful for prepress work!

AutoCAD 2013 :: Polygon Stretch To New Length

Aug 13, 2013

Currently when I pick a grip at the end of a polygon line and type a length, the polygon goes to that length.

Is there a setting anywhere that changes this behavior to add the typed length to the polygon, hence stretching it to this new length. This would be the same as lengthen when drawing with lines.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Commands Are Not Working

Apr 11, 2013

When I try typing "L" for line and hit enter (space bar), then click the mouse to draw a line nothing happens.  The command is active and the grips are active like the command is ready for me to click mouse to draw a line.  Also, hitting the space bar again does nothing.

Photoshop :: CS6 Edit Commands Grayed Out To Copy / Cut Objects And Layers?

Mar 27, 2013

Why are my edit commands (copy and cut) grayed out / unavailable? When trying to copy a selected layer or object, all my editing commands are grayed out and unavailable. Even if I convert something to a smart object, no joy. The only thing I seem to be able to select and copy/cut/paste is text in the text edit mode. makes no sense and is rendering PS unusable.
