AutoCAD LT :: 2013 - Drawing Not Centered In Window

Jul 16, 2013

In AutoCAD LT 2013, whenever I open a drawing I previously created and stored, it opens with a small amout of the bottom of the drawing below the bottom border of the window. Repeatedly I have tried positioning the drawing the way I would like it to open then saving that configuration. That's how I always did it in AutoCAD 2000, my previous version. Regardless how many times I go thru that process, all drawings always open centered horiz'ly but with the bottom bit of the drawing below the bottom border of the window.

I constantly look for a "Center Drawing In Window" button, or "Save Current View" button and so far have found nothing I recognize as such or even close. Am I looking for something that doesn't exist? Am I not understanding how it works? In the grand scheme it really doesn't matter because it's simple to pan the drawing into a fully readable scene - but I am still curious.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing Window Running Under Parallels

Apr 8, 2013

If there's a conflict between the UI for teh AutoCAD drawing window and Parallels?  There seems to be a consistent change in mouse behavior when the mouse moves to the AutoCAD drawing window when running AutoCAD ('11, '12, '13, '14) under Parallels (5, 6, & 7).

Since Parallels is now officially supported.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Cursor Disappears Only On Drawing Window

May 3, 2012

All of a sudden my cursor will become invisible. This happens only with AutoCAD. and if I switch between drawing windows it will appear on another drawing file. I have to close the drawing and open it again and then the cursor will be back only to disappear again. The cursor is visible if I move it back to the ribbon or bottom controls. It seems to happen only when it becomes the cross-hair cursor. I can still make selection windows and right click.

Mouse is working fine with all other programs and drivers are up-to-date.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2013 Odd Block (scale Window) Bogs Down Drawing

Feb 12, 2013

We have a large project that we converted from 2012 to 2013 - it had always been a little buggy in 2012 as it was a piece together from another consultant.   Now though, it is extremely slow and there seems to be a 'block reference' around every block in the drawing. You can drag your select window and they all pop up like crazy and slow things down immensely (see screen capture).  You can select them individually, they have nodes on all 4 corners and to move them, scales your block up and down.  I tried block replace to our blocks which we know are fine and same problem.  It also seems to be drawing specific although audit is clean.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Drawing Window Swaps On It Own To Another Drawing Window

Jul 24, 2012

Sometimes, when I have two or more drawings open in the same instance of AutoCAD, another tab opens up on the Windows Taskbar.  Here's the scenerio;  I have two drawings open.  On the task bar, Autocad's icon shows two drawings open.  Somewhere while drawing, AutoCAD will start bogging down, especially when switching drawings.  On the Window's Taskbar, it will now show three drawings open.  Two of which will be the same drawing.  There will only be two drawings open.  The drawing which is currently on top for editing will be the one that shows up twice. If I change to the other drawing, it takes a really long time to swap.  Sometimes, it will sit there for a minute and then swap back to the other first drawing on it's own.  I try going back to the second drawing again, and the same thing happens again.  The only way to stop this from happening is to completely shut down AutoCAD and restart it.  I think it has something to do with the ribbon.  And I also notice it more often after doing a CopyBase, but not always.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Opening Drawing In 2013 And Drawing View Changes?

Nov 28, 2012

Recently upgraded to Civil 3D 2013 and drawings opened up fine.  Now today any drawing that opens shows the plan view as last saved but then after loading takes the drawing and shifts it into a 3d view similar to a crossection.  Is there a setting somewhere that has been changed?  I noticed after a windows 7 update was preformed.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Drawing Order - Send To Back / Not Working Anymore In 2013

Apr 17, 2013

I have this heavy issue, i can't send to back a line, an object or a hatch under other lines. In 2012 i used this feature a lot but in 2013 it's not working very much, maybe 1 time out of 10 and i absolutely can't say why.

HPDRAWORDER = 1 seems to work with a new hatch.. but i can't redraw everything.

Let's say i put an entire floor plan into block then draw over it. (I don't want to start a Xref discussion please) i can't send the entire bloc to the back.I used to do that with 2012, 2008, 2007.. but it's 2013 it's not working, is there a way to correct that?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Setting Up One Drawing In Multiple Screens With One Session Of 2013

Nov 21, 2013

I recently added 2 monitors to my set up to bring my total to 3. I am trying to figure out the best way to work on one drawing, with 2 differant veiws on each of the 2 main screens.

I would like my main screen to have the plan view and the second monitor to have an isometric veiw (or whatever I need at the time) of the same drawing. Is there a way to have the same drawing opened up in another window, in one session of Autocad 2013. One on the main screen and one on the secondary.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Command Line Use Often Resizes Drawing Window?

Sep 13, 2011

An example is when I'm drawing a box, line etc and attempt to type "@5,-5", AutoCAD somehow jumps to a window on the side and if I don't notice will restore the window I'm working in and not complete the command I typed ("@5,-5" in this case).  If I do notice in time, then I have to pres ESC about 3-4 times, which will then have me back on the command line with the text "@5,-" already typed (as if that was were I paused while typing??).   The attached picture shows the dialog box on the top left, and the command line as if I've only typed "@", when after pressing ESC as mentioned the full "@5,-" text becomes visible on the command line? 

Also, as a note:  I've already ruled out that I'm pressing other keys that could possibly cause this...

I'm running AutoCAD (Mechanical) 2011

AutoCAD 2013 :: Prompt / Save In 2013 Drawing Format?

Nov 14, 2012

As many of us seam to do the option to save by default to an older version of AutoCAD or universal DXF format is selected, my problem is however when you save an existing drawing a prompt appears asking if 'Drawing*.dxf last saved in AutoCAD 2004 format. Save in AutoCAD 2013 Drawing format?' this has annoyed me for years!

I have set it as default DXF 2014 for a good reason I don’t want a prompt asking me if I want to then save it as 2013 or I would have set it like that on my default setting, gets on your nerves when you are doing 100's of files.

AutoCAD 2010 :: No Refresh After Closing Drawing Until Application Window Is Resized

Apr 10, 2012

My AutoCAD 2012 installation has been doing this for a while, but I don't remember it always doing this:

After I close a drawing (if it is the last drawing open), by using either the "close" command or by clicking the "x" on the window, instead of going to the generic gray-stripe background it just shows what the drawing looked like before close.  This keeps messing with my head, as I think AutoCAD has just stopped responding.

If you look closely, though, you can see that the "AutoCAD" and "Autodesk" labels appear on the drawing, but I don't immediately notice this because my drawings are more complex than the sample drawing I've attached.

See images below.

However, when I manually resize the application window (either by restoring or maximizing, or by draging the window edge, the application window refreshes to show the proper generic gray-stripe background.

System specifications: AutoCAD 2014 64-bit SP1, Windows 7 64-bit SP1, Intel Core i7-2600K, AMD FirePro V4900

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Save Window Settings On Exit

Apr 26, 2013

It used to be with previous releases of AutoCAD that when I opened the application it restored the window size and position to how it was when I last used it, but with 2013 and now 2014 I find this is not the case.

Basically, I most of the time am happier not having the application fill the full width of the screen, so I have the left side pulled in a certain amount, but not only do I have to pull it in each time, but there is also a small gap at the top, bottom an right side that I have to close up, which is irritating.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Change Text Through Properties Window

May 23, 2012

I must have hit some combination of keys which altered my interface because Autocad 2013 is acting slighly differently. I can no longer pick Dtext and change its contents directly but must go into the properties tab and change the text through the properties window. When I pick an object my layers scroll windo no longer identifies the objects layer. And when I right click an object I no longer have access to the same set of command that I used to. For example I used to be able to right click an XREF and have the command xclip available but that and other specific commands are no longer available. I am on a deadline and am not able to figure out what is causing this sudden unexpected change in the interface.
