·• Start drawing a shape such as a rectangle, ellipse, or polygon.
·• Hold down the right mouse button without releasing the left mouse button, and drag the unfinished object to its new position.
·• Release the right mouse button, and continue drawing.
I am not able to move any of the views in my drawing (*.idw). As instructed by the web page this should be as easy as "click and drag the red border", but this does not work. I cannot move the dimension annotations either.
I am using Inventor 2014.
I have often problem with drawing view labels. When model is changed and I switch to the drawing then the label is moved to an random position. There is possible to little move with view, or edit label text or switch off/on label and label move back to correct position. This is very unpleasant when there s more views in drawing, is necessary to correct each label.
This happen in Inv2013 and also in Inv2014.
Is not there an possibity to minimize this?
Enclosed is example video.
Can the API be used to select feature edges in a drawing view and assign them to a layer? I am using IV10.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI found that I can right click a dimension in a drawing and select "Move Dimension" which then prompts me to select an alternative view in which I want the dimension placed. Is it possible to control-click multiple dimensions once to do this all in one fell swoop (e.g. I decided my view is too busy and want to move dimensions to a newly created detail view of that area)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat 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!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI wondered if there is a way of changing view reference from one object to another.
Example.
I have two similar models but drawing done for one.
I could save it as with a different name and replace in all the views referenciing from old model to new one.
Possible?
I'm want to drag an objects anchor and have the position co-ordinates offset by opposite amounts so it doesn't appear to move postioin on screen. IS there a tool for that?
View 3 Replies View RelatedVersion Autocad 2010. I have drawings with multiple objects that are in a horizontal line and touching. I want to make 2 buttons that will move each object horizontally by .35 inch, 1 button would move the object left and 1 right. There are 2 pieces of text that go with each object. I would like to select the object and texts and hit the button to have all selected move. My problem is in writing the base point and displacement parts of the macro. I think it would start with "_Move;" but I can't get past that. I used the action recorder to make the macro but can not find a way to convert that to a button.

i am selecting an object to move but rather than moving it alone its moving like stretch!
I’ve got a student version (AutoCAD for Mac 2013) , which I got from official website. There starting to appear few problems after a few months of my work.
1. when I’m doing a rectangle, lines that intersect or just lines that contact, in the point of connection appear small blue rectangles and windows of mistakes. If I trying to move only one element of this object, all others elements start to deform in chaotic way.
2. when I’m coping any object on the same page in one file, program start to buzz and I need to close the program despotic.
I have a width. I want to move an object along the x-axis, with this width. No problem. But when the UCS is rotated, it still moves the object along the original x-axis.
How do I move the object along the x-axis of the rotated UCS?
Movement along the z-axis will always be 0 (2D only).
When trying to move to an object to a specific coordinate autocad2012 puts @ in automatically. How setvar do i use to remove this unnecesarry hurdle

View 7 Replies View RelatedBefore I upgraded to AutoCAD 2014 (was using 2012) when I used the MOVE command on 3D geometry (while using the Realistic Visualization) I could see one object move into another. Like, moving a cylinder into a box to represent a button, and I would see it slowly sink into the box as I moved it further and further along.
In 2014, the object I am moving will REMAIN ON TOP visually of all other geometry until it is completely inside the other geometry (at which point it disappears completely). It's hard for me to then judge just how much of it is sticking out during the MOVE command. Once I complete the move command, the proper visualization order is then shown.
In other words, if I have a 10 inch cylinder, and I'm trying to move it into a box so only 2 inches sticks out (as a visual guesstimation), currently I would see ALL 10 inches of the cylinder whether part of it is inside the box or not, until I complete the MOVE command.
When I want to move an object a certain distance from the original location, I go to long winded trouble of drawing a line and attaching it to say, for example, the centre of a circle. Then MOVE the circle, selecting the base line as the centre to the end of the LINE using OSNAP.
Is this how you Pro's do it, I'm guessing not.
If I drag an effect from the target circle of one object to anther in the layer's panel it replaces the effect along with all appearance. But I want just to add the effect. For example, a layer has a drop shadow and a path, round corners. I want to move the drop shadow from the layer to the path so that the path now has the round corners and the drop shadow. To do this I have to open the shadow effect of the layer wright down its parameters, then create a shadow effect for the path with the same parameters which is a lot of work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a program that creates a drawing. I want to move all of the objects (lines, blocks, arcs...) from one point to another. I was using the SendStringToExecute, but it doesn't seem to work. Here is the section of code I have:
Dim newCenterX As Double
newCenterX = (rightXCoord + ((leftXCoord - rightXCoord) / 2))
startpt = New Geometry.Point3d(newCenterX, 0, 0)
endpt = New Geometry.Point3d(0, 0, 0)
' Move the objects from newCenterX to 0
acDoc.SendStringToExecute("._move all startpt endpt ", True, False, False)
acDoc.SendStringToExecute("._zoom _all ", True, False, False)
This will select all of the objects in the drawing, but it just doesn't see the start point and end point. It just keeps prompting me to enter the start and end points manually. Is there a way to pass the variables to the command? Is there another way of moving the objects?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a weird issue with basic use xref in AutoCad 2012. There are two files complementary, (an elevation , one is masonry, the other windows). One is refering to the other with x-ref for a complete view (in overlay). From time to time some objects from the xref file are brought into the master file. This seems to happen randomly, like not all objects from a layer are moves for instance. These are usually blocks that are taken from the xref file. And when I discover them in the master drawing they are exploded too. So I have to clean my drawing up from all that scrap. It happen like twice a week.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded to 2013 from 2007 and I am having some weird trouble with the move command. I will try to explain.. I type the move command and then select a particular object I would like to move a little and it grabs some (not all) of other objects/lines near it and then stretches the lot in all directions! It actually doesn't allow me to move it at all without stretching/extending all these areas. I have tried everything I can think of and am not sure what I am missing. I thought it was somehow related to the polyline I was selecting, but it does it to single lines as well.

If you select an object and then drag it, it moves. This is without initiating the MOVE command and without picking any grips.
Using AutoCad 2011. When trying to 'copy/move to end' a 'layout' tab in a drawing, I keep getting the message:
'ERROR:Copy of layout failed'
I have in the past been very successful operating this command in earlier vers of Autocad.
I am having problems moving my drawing from the layout tab to the model tab.
Copy and paste is not working.
Is there another way to move the drawing?
I have attached the file that I am working with.

When I copy or move an object in a file converted from Microstation to Autocad 2012 the system freezes or slows down to a crawl. If I redraw the drawing in Autocad it works fine. I have a lot of drawings converted from Microstation and I don't need to be redrawing them all.

I have created a profile with the workspace they need on the network, I having trouble getting the customised profile to come up as the default, instead the Vanilla profile comes up and I have to go into options to change the profile to the Company one.
Where do I need to change it so that it chooses the profile I have made first? or should I be doing this a different way?
Drawing started in LDD a few years ago. It was on a local coordinate system of 1000,1000.
The drawing has since been migrated to C3D2012. Now we have data in UTM coordinates that we need to match to the old data. Actually, we want to shift/rotate the entire original set of data to match the new UTM data, so we can continue in UTM for all future data collection.
So, I went through and turned all layers on, Thawed them and unlocked them. I made sure all points were visable, etc. Then I tried to move the original data (I also tried the align command, etc., with the same results) and found a glitch. After I moved the data, I found that there was some points and survey figures as well as a cooridore, that had not moved. The vast majority of the drawing had moved as expected, but the afore mentioned data would not move.
