Illustrator :: Rectangle Tool Default Behavior Is Odd / Dragging Objects Clones Them By Default

Jan 28, 2011

I have a situation where the default behavior of my rectangle tool (or any of the other shape tools) is now different. I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.5 running Illustrator CS5. It acts as though the option-shift keys are pressed, so whenever I draw an object, it draws from the center point and the dimensions are constrained, so i can only draw a square or circle, not a rectangle or ellipse. Additionally, whenever I use the selection tool, it clones the object I drag, and also constrains the positioning, so i can only drag in a 0, 45 or 90 degree angle (or multiples thereof). It's as if my option-shift keys are permanently pressed (if I actually press option-shift, the behavior persists). I tried using a different (brand new) keyboard, tried throwing away preferences, and the problem remains. I also tried booting up Illustrator CS4, and the weird problem showed up there! This behavior just started happening spontaneously. I couldn't think of anything weird that happened (a crash, a new plug-in, etc.). I can't find a preference that sets this behavior either.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Default Value Of Z

Jan 29, 2012

I thought there was a way to get Autocad to read the highest value of z when identifying a point.  For instance, if I have a line from 0,0,0 to 0,0,10 I'd like to id the 0,0,10 without having to go to a 3d view.  I'm trying to develop a routine to catch elevations in plan view with just one call to (get point).

I haven't undefined the default command, my definition of REFEDIT executes anyway. I wanna be able to run the default command from my definition.

doc.SendStringToExecute(".REFEDIT ", true, false, false); will loop forever.

AutoCAD Architecture :: How To Set A Font To Default

May 9, 2012

We just upgraded from '12 to '13, I am trying to find ways to set a font to default, but am unable to find a way that fits how we operate here.  My boss likes to do things a certain way, so I have to make sure whatever I do falls within his parameters.

Anyway: I have read a number of articles about people saying to just change your template settings and save it.  We don't, however, use a template.  I guess we could start (if he let me), but all we do now is copy another x-ref or architecture page or what-have-you, save it in a new file, and go from there. 

I also think I may have messed up my computer by trying to use fontalt.  Now every time I start my machine up, it asks me to specify the fontalt. How to turn that off?

But the main thing: is there a way to get a default font setting to affect all of our files at once?  If I go to "style" I can change every page at a time, but that gets lengthy.  Was assuming there should be one change that does everything.

AutoCAD .NET :: Removing Default Layers

Jan 19, 2012

I'm just finishing up with a command that sets up custom paperspaces for our designers, and once it's done, it deletes the default Layout1 and Layout2 paperspace. The error i'm getting though is the following:

If a drawing contains Layout1 and Layout2, both are deleted as they should be

If a drawing contains Layout1 but not Layout2

or 

If a drawing contains Layout2 but not Layout1

I get an error and it crashes. This seems really stupid i know, but i must be doing something wrong here. I'm using if statements to determine if Layout1 exists, then delete it, and if Layout2 exists, then delete it. However, it seems that every time, if one of those layouts are missing, it still assumes it's there, tries to delete it, and errors out because it doesn't exist. I've tried many variations of "if" statements.

My

public class CHDelete
{
// This function will delete Layout1 and Layout2
[Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.CommandMethod("CHDelete")]
public void CHRENAMECOMMAND()
{
[code].......

AutoCAD .NET :: Projecting Circle On Default UCS

Dec 22, 2012

I have a circle which is rotated 45 degree around the X-axis. If you look at it from the top (normal=0,0,1) it will look like an ellipse.

I want to draw a new entity (ELLIPSE) that will have the same shape/look as the circle viewed from the top, but the whole entity must have z=0.

Basically, exactly what the command FLATTEN does.

Is there a way to do this easily? Or is the only way to figure out the math behind it?

AutoCad :: How To Set Default Layer To Tool

Jun 7, 2013

I was wondering if there was a way to assign layers to individual tools. In other words, if I want to use the linear dimension tool, upon clicking on the tool the layer would automatically switch over to my dimension layer without me having to manually change layers.

I am using AutoCAD LT 2013.

AutoCad :: Xref Default Layer

Nov 21, 2012

We are having an issue with CAD users putting their xrefs on any layer that is current; thus creating some layer control issues. I would like to make it so that when they go to attach an xref the layer is automatically set to the "XREF" layer and then possibly reset to the previous layer.

AutoCAD Architecture :: How To Set A Font To Default

May 10, 2012

we've been having with this upgrade is that our font - which had been some version of architxt.shx - has been set back to simplex.  And we don't really use templates at all... when making a new drawing all we do is copy an old one.  I'm getting the gist that templates are an under structure to the drawing, but I wouldn't be able to tell you which template informs all of our drawings, because quite simply we don't use and have never changed one.

Is there some way to globally affect all of our drawings - both new and old - so that everything is using the same text?  I believe my coworker did something with a path/string in the options menu, but I don't know what, and am not about to mess with that without some definitive belief that I'm doing the right thing!  Currently, if I want to print out a set in the font we want, I have to "style" change every single drawing.  Obviously, there's got to be something better.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Default Tag Names

Nov 15, 2013

I was wondering if it was possible to Enter into the Tag Name field something to force it to be default (similar to writing %F%N in the options section of the tag name).  I am running something in the background that if tag name isn't specified it doesn't go to its default, therefore the tag name itself has to tell it to go to default.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Default Description Key

AutoCAD 2010 :: Default Lineweight Changes

Jun 12, 2012

Using AutoCAD 2011 we always use 0.00 as our default line weight but the default will change to 0.010 with no real pattern. It can be any drawing at any time. We have reset this dozens of times without being able to stop it from reoccurring.

We are also not able to get line weight to display (yes we check the Lineweight Settings, Display lineweight box) again on random drawings at random times.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Default DXF Does Not Work?

Feb 9, 2012

There is a bug in inventor 2012, where the default dxf version does not apply. It's not a huge issue, but it's quite annoying. Basically, when saving a dxf, I need to change the dxf version each time, regardless of what the default version is (which I've set to 2004). In order to import the files into my cam software (for CNC), it needs to be the Autocad 2004 DXF, so every time I need to save a dxf, I need to go to options and press finish.

AutoCad :: How To Alter Default Plotter

Feb 15, 2013

How to alter AutoCADs' default plotter so that when I "publish" it will be the plotter that I use here most commonly in the office and I can use the default name given so I do not have to do a "page setup" every time I want to plot more than one page. I would like to select the pages that I am interested in publishing and go.

(also, I am using AutoCAD 2013 LT so LISP's are not a possibility)

AutoCad 3D :: Lofting With Guides By Default

May 16, 2011

I have to do a lot of lofting to create 3D shapes. The more the 2D sections are complicated, the more times takes for AutoCad to find a solution (even in a powerful computer). Beside that, I use Guide splines to create the exact shape I want. For this I have to wait two times, first Autocad find its own solution, then the solution with my Guides. Is there a way to make AutoCad loft by default with Guides, such that it doesn't ask for Guides after the initial loft, but immediately at the beginning.
