I want to make it so that whenever I type F for FILLET the MULTIPLE option is selected so I don't have to type F then M. Is there a way to make it so that when I type F it always gives me the multiple option without my having to type F then M? How would I do that?
View 9 RepliesI have placedmy own Origin in the center of the screen. I am constantly using construction lines from this origin using the offset command with various offset lengths. What I am trying to achieve is to enter a numeric value and press enter on a continuous cycle. Without Selecting construction line, Offset, Distance, Select Line, Select side. I have tried using Macro and CUI in the manage tab without success. I understand the concept, but lack the knowledge to succeed. I have a nose bleed from continuously hitting a wall.

A couple of weeks a go I read a post here in CT which taught how to automate this part of commands. I don't know how to find it.
I am working on a lisp to scale drawings of various sizes to a predetermined size. After the lisp has run and scaled the drawing, the prompts for base point and reference point run a second time. How can I get this to run through once? I think it has something to do with the way the reference length is being entered. The base point and first reference point are the lower left corner of the drawing, while the second reference point is the lower right corner.
(COMMAND "SCALE" "ALL" "" (SETQ A (GETPOINT "
SELECT BASE POINT :")) "R" A
(GETPOINT "

Everything in the dim suffix field is repeated twice and I don't know why.
No variables were changed...I literally did one dimension that came out normally and the next one did this.
Now all dimensions do this. There is a single dimstyle with no daughter styles.

I am used to entering my fillet radius dimensions in the command line with [F]illet, [R]adius, then entering a value.
However with 2014 an extra prompt has been added (or enabled) which would mean the path was [F]illet, [D]imension, [Radius], value. I was getting frustrated with this and tried fiddling with the settings ([F]illet, [S]ettings) but could not sort it, and now when I do go to enter a dimension the only option I am left with is to "Select fillet arc", meaning I have lost the ability to enter a value in the command line.
How do I regain the ability to enter a numerical value for a radius?
I use Rhino to make pendant models but I find that Rhino's fillet function very slow and inefficient, so I'd like to know if Autodesk would be better at doing that.

I have the outline of a solid body guitar that I drew with spline, extruded and now trying put a 1/2" fillet radius along the edges, top and bottom.
Using the 3d fillet command produces an error, and extruding a profile along the edge path doesn't work either.
Attached is the spline outline, the red part is what needs the fillet, but the white part does not. However, they can't be extruded into a 3d solid unless their joined!
I'm trying to create these rounded divots in a solid. However the only way I know how to get this sort of shape is with a revolved PLINE - which I of course can't use to subtract material from my regular old box.
The shape I want is something like this: (the 2D is a profile of what I want in the end, a divot in a box)
I have keyboard commands set up for exporting my .idw drawings to .pdf format (PD for me.) I would also like to set this up for exporting my drawing to .dxf format. I think this can be done with a macro that can be activated by a keyboard command, but I could be wrong. I don't want to do this with an iLogic.

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.

I opened the CUI right clicked to create new temporary shortcut, put the command into the line and selected shift and Q. There some gobbledy **** message about it being also assigned to another command but that it will prioritise the one at the bottom of the tree, and my new shortcut IS at the bottom of the tree so far as I understand the phrase.
Bur when I try to use it, the shift key is not recognised. I press shift and q but all that comes up in the command line is q.

Anything else I should check settings-wise that may be causing this?
If I do a command such as regen, or switch between tabs/modelspace, generally anything that seems to involve a screen update, then immediately following that if I try something like a Shift-Tab type of operation, there is no response from autocad until I move the mouse. This is consistent if hardware accelertion is turned on or off, so I can't go blaming the video drivers just yet.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'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.
