AutoCAD LT :: Can Turn Draft Preview Off In 2012
Feb 9, 2013
running autocad 2012: there is an autopreview that shows what the command will look like before I hit return. How do I turn it off.
The issue is: I am overdrafting what Autocad is able to keep up with. I feel like I am now at half speed... I can replicate the same issue: offset x dimension; I move to left and hit enter; in the same instance autocad has autopreviewed right, and that becomes the command that sticks. really annoying... I have run ADT with bloated files on the same machine and not had this problem, so I figure its this feature that is causing the slowdown for me.

I've been using Inventor for a few years now and haven't seen this. It created a base view with green marks and when I go to print it says
"One or more drawing views are currently draft previews. Draft previews differ from final views in quality and may produce visually different results. Would you like to wait for views to update before printing or smash the screen from irritation of having a new roadblock thrown in your way that we make no effort to remove for you? HAHA you ignorant fool you will never learn all the idiosyncrasies of our product".
Which I thought was a bit unnecessary.
It does make some effort actually. It sits there with a progress bar. This drawing is about as simple as I create and it can't get past the progress bar. If I print anyway, there is no line weight. So where is this little switch hidden to turn this off? I've already fiddled with background updates and the sunglasses are not checked and grayed out. I don't know how I never ran across this problem before or what could have changed. Given the performance of my computer, I don't think I need some low grade preview for drawings of this type.

We just received ACAD 2012 and I would like to turn off the layout tab preview option/function. We have drawings with upwards fo 60-70 layout tabs in them and the preview is annoying and is causing some issues. I can't seem to find the system variable to trun it off.

I wan to turn this prompt off...period. Not fix it, just turn it off.
"The location of the selected file is not in the active project. To ensure that the file can be found when you open files that reference it, add the location to the project or move the file to a location specified in the project."
Looked through options, changed approproate setting to "Never". Still prompts.

Out of the blue, my IV 2012 has decided to stop showing the preview when applying contraints. I have made no changes to any options or configurations. Preview check box is checked.
I tried unchecking and rechecking it to no avail. Any thoughts on this behavior ?
2nd out of the blue issue - when I insert a part into my assy (part file is in the same folder where the assy file is located) IV decides it needs to create a sub-folder and re-saves that part to the sub-folder. I mean, WTF ? The part file is already there. Why create another version of the part in a sub-folder. And why would it just start to do this out of the blue.
Again, I have made no changes to any configurations, options, settings, templates, etc...

I recently upgraded from 2007 to 2012 and the entire look and feel of the program is different. Like Microsoft, AutoCad has "upgraded" everything so overnight i have managed to go from marginally competent to totally inept!
I really really would like to know if it is possible to switch back to the classic view with the old tool bars and commands.

On occasion when on a layout tab and making a few changes in model space and I preview while model space is still active, crosshairs disappear when I exit preview. So I then save, close and reopen, it is then back to normal.

Just upgraded from 2010 to 2012. How do I turn off this new "accudraw" that pops up when drawing a line? And can I disable it permanently? (accudraw is the only thing I can equate it to).

I use two monitors while editing and in the past I was able to edit in Lightroom on the left monitor and do other things on the right (ie. email, netflix etc...) Now Lightroom wants to use my right monitor to show me a preview of whatever picture I am working on. I cannot manage to override this and turn the preview off. Is it something within the program or do I need to change something in my control panel?

I am creating mockups for a t-shirt design, this top photo is how the design looks in illustrator with the correct pantones: blue 3115C, Red 119C, and Black. When I save it as a PDF and it is opened in the Preview Application, certain colors turn black like this. This has happened several times lately and I have recently switched from Illy CS5 to CS6, so I wonder if that is the reason?

I prepare graphics mostly for print, so I like to turn on the Proof Colors view and Overprint Preview views. It's a pain to turn these on for each document. Is there a way to make these the default viewing settings in Illustrator CS6?
I tried creating an action to do it, but the Insert Menu Item command in actions causes Illustrator to crash every time, and the help file seems to say that View commands are unavailable to actions. So I'm not sure if that's a bug. Oddly, Photoshop has the very useful File> Scripts> Script Event Manager that let's me turn on Proof Colors (via an action) whenever a document is opened. It works very well. However, Illustrator does not appear to have these options. I found the View> New View options in Illustrator. They let me create a view that turns on Overprint Preview, but absolutely refuse to turn on Proof Colors. So it's the same number of clicks and pointless.

Is there any way to turn off auto-recovery in LR4 2012 process engine? When shooting on white seamless, I gradually bring up the background lights until I see the raw file just blowing out as I want it, at my shooting aperture. With LR4 and auto-recovery - using this method of 'metering' if you like - I'm adding 2-3 extra stops of light than I would expect before this happens, which then gives me wrap around and flare problems. I'd like to take back control of this, so I'm not guessing where my pure white is any more..

Trying to add draft to an area on this part. Not sure exactly how to get the results I'm looking for. Tried "Draft" command and that didnt work at all. Tried to do a sweep. Its close, but not exacly what I want.
I am trying to get draft applied on this entire face at a given angle (say 5°). The Sweep feature in the part is where I attempted it, but you can see below the Ø6in section, all of the face does not have the draft on it.

I went through a bunch of tutorials on how to draft and assemble parts and when going through them step by step everything looks really neat and works well. Start with blank files and try creating something from scratch and that is when the laws of the universe no longer apply.
I am sure I am doing something wrong here but the problem is when logic and common sense no longer apply and each mouse click and drag is bound by some law that cannot be documented let alone repeated that is when I start getting lost.
My assembly is mainly comprised of pipes, clamps and pipe T-joints which are joined by rotational joints. I am sure this has to be a tricky assembly task since I have witnessed numerous times my assembly flying apart in every possible direction into a tangled mess from just trying to nudge one part.
For example -> Currently I have a part bound by a single rotational joint and I ground the pipe this joint is connected to. I have used this many times now to rotate parts relative to one another to prevent the arbitrary explode and re-arrange that occurs if you do not ground a part. Now all of a sudden when I try to rotate this part I get a circle with a cross through it beside the mouse pointer telling me that this will not happen. Why now? For a sanity check I went back to a previously saved file and the same scenario works. Why?
The best part of this software is the: "The assembly cannot be solved" dialog that pops up as soon as anything gets more complex than a single joint. This dialog fascinates me since after it pops up and I cancel it I will spend a half hour trying to ground parts and nudge the pieces closer together. Then I try the exact same joint and...... it WORKS! It blows my mind every time. So is there a internal timer that ensures you spend an appropriate amount of time screwing around before it will let you pass to the next level? If I can ground/nudge the two pieces I want to join in about a half hour why can't the software do this, maybe I am missing something but I thought this was the point for software like Inventor?
How I would try manipulate it if it was in front of me. I see a part that needs to be rotated so I try click and drag it into place, of course Inventor has no clue that the part I click on could possibly be the one I want to move so every piece not grounded will fly off into random directions.

I'm using Inventor Professional 2012. I have what seems like a relatively simple part, but I cannot find any way to apply a face draft to the four quadrants between the upper outer and inner "'cylinders". I get the dreaded "did not produce a meaningful result. Try with different inputs." no matter which type of draft I try. I have created parting line drafts everywhere else. how I can get these faces to draft?

I'm currently working on a Spa design and using new tools which is all new to me. I've used Draft Angles before but on a spa where you sit normally the sit reclines back.
Now I'm not sure how to do / show this in a 3D drawing. I've read and serached for different things but have yet to find something similar I'm looking for.
I've attached a PDF along with the circled area as to what I'm trying to accoomplish. Wanna be able to show the dip etc via Inventor.

I am attempting to draft a shape that begins as a protruded rectangle. The shape then continues as a protruded rectangle that bends and conforms to the shape of cone. That may have been confusing. The profile does not change in shape to a cone. Lets say I want to do a sweep, and use the rectangle as the profile. I pick a path that was project wrapped to the cone, and the cone as the surface. I have trouble with the outcome.
I get all kind of open loop errors, and stuff with the paths, oh and also I get an error saying that the the path is not tangient and continuous. I have spent hours trying to go at it different ways. I tried using rails and I still can't get this sweep to do what I am wanting it to do. The rectangular profile has to be perpendicular to the cone surface as it follows it for the outcome to be correct. I have attached the file.

Is there any way to set the default angle when using the 'Face Draft' command. The default angle is set to 2.5 degrees - for my application 45 would be more useful.
