AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Zoom Extents Upon Opening A Drawing?
Nov 13, 2012What i would like to do is have autocad do a zoom extents automatically when I open a dwg. Is there a lisp routine that I can run to do this? I use to have something that would do this but I started a new job and cant remember.

Mar 13, 2012Currently I am using 2010 Map 3d, for water main base plans.
I use Micro Survey to process my field work. From there I open in Cad, import layers from our GIS data base for property, buildings, addresses, etc.
The only thing I have done different is from another project was copy and paste some utility layers.
Now my drawing turns any plines with width into hollow lines, and if align something my drawing will zoom to extents, also text mask does not work and i tried turning text to Mtext and it will not let me select yes for background mask.
All other drawings I check everything works fine.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Middle Mouse Button (wheel) Set To Zoom All / Zoom Extents Double Click
Feb 27, 2013I am working on getting some settings done, moving from 2008 to 2012. How do you set the Middle Mouse Button (wheel) to either Zoom All or Zoom Extents when you double click it? I thought it was set in the Main CUI file.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: UCS Changes When Zooming Extents?
Nov 23, 2011In AutoCad 2012, when I double click my mouse and zoom extents the UCS changes to about 20 degrees off of the default vert/horz cardinal directions planes. If I change my UCS back to world it is all good again, although when I zoom extents it goes back to the 20 degrees off cardinal planes.
I don't normally use a UCS other than the default, so it is probably a stupid question, although how do I stop it from doing this?
AutoCad :: Viewports Zooming To Extents?
Oct 28, 2005I have an intermittent problem, in ACLt '06.
On certain drawings, when I double-click in viewports that aren't locked they will zoom to extents, even when they have been set up to a certain scale.
The annoying thing is, not only does it zoom the selected viewport, it zooms every other unlocked viewport in the layout.
Does that make sense? and more importantly, how do I stop it from doing this?
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Random Zooming To Extents?
Feb 19, 2013My C3D 2013 just started doing this last week... I first noticed that it would zoom to extents when I operated the center mouse button for panning. It was random, about 1 out of every 15 to 20 pans using the center button.
But then I noticed that it's not just the panning. It will randomly zoom to extents when I type in a command. Earlier today, it did it when I did a REGEN, then again when I did a MAPWSPACE.
The other notable thing is that there is no "zoom" command anywhere in the command history when this occurs.
Besides changing the mice, I also tried rebooting and running a repair on C3D. I have Win7-64.
The problem seems to coincide with when I started using Autodesk 360. Not saying it's related, but it's fishy.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Stopping The Mbutton From Zooming All Extents?
Jan 22, 2013I usually use my mbutton to pan dwg. Just started using AutoCAD 2013 and I notice it zoom extents everytime I press the mbutton (the middle scrollwheel button). How do I disable this zoom extents?
One more thing, how do I disable the annoying auto complete whenever I type in a command? It seems to be slowing my work flow.
AutoCAD 2013 :: Zooming To Extents While Snapping From Endpoint?
Jul 17, 2012While using V2013, the middle button on the mouse to pop up the snap chart (mbuttonpan set to 0), I'm getting the zoom extents command in the middle of a command using snap from, then snap endpoint.
Here a quick example: while using hotkeys, I type c for copy-select objects-right click-choose basepoint, (here's where the problem occurs), middle mouse F(from) middle mouse E (endpoint). If I middle mouse F (snap From) pause then middle mouse E (snap endpoint) this works as it should. I click through the commands fast and it's slowing me down every time it zooms to extents in the middle of the command, which makes me zoom back in or cancel & undo.
AutoCAD Map 3D :: Zoom To Extents Of Shapefile

View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Zoom / Extents Giving Microdots
Aug 26, 2010I'm currently marking up some electrical items on a building plan.
At present, when I enter the zoom | extents command, the entire drawing is represented as a microdot in the bottom left corner of the screen.
I assume that upon entering the zoom | extents command, my drawing should appear centred on the screen and zoomed such that the entire drawing fills the screen.
Do I need to move the drawing origin? Do I need to rescale?
AutoCAD Map 3D :: Getting Dot Near The Edge Of Modelspace When Using Zoom Extents
Jan 8, 2014When I use Zoom Extents, my map becomes a tiny dot near the edge of model space. This happens will all of my drawings and they are not "zooming" to the same area in model space. One might be a tiny dot hidden in the left corner under the geomarker and the next might be in the upper right corner 1/4" in size.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Zoom Extents All Layout Tabs
Jun 21, 2011Once you have multiple layout tabs its very easy to zoom in on a tab make some changes jump to another tab zoom in make some more changes, then save the dwg.
You then open the drawing to say plot and have to zoom e the layout as a glance to see if its correct, etc.
So I wrote this tiny lisp that will very quickly zoom extents on all layout tabs and then I would normally save.
; goes through all layout tabs and zooms all

View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD .NET :: Zoom Extents - UpdateExt Values Do Not Update
Jun 20, 2013Every example I've seen for writing a .NET version of ZOOMEXTENTS shows the Document.Database being updated with UpdateExt(true). why, after executing this line, my Extmin and Extmax values remain unchanged?
My process is something like this:
* Inside Drawing1.dwg
* Make sure I'm in Paper Space (which contains a 36x24 border)
* Zoom Extents -- At this point, my code attempts to do a SetCurrentView using the new ViewTableRecord and I get an an eNullObjectPointer exception.
I'm assuming the exception is because the HUGE or maybe ununderstood extents (the defaults are (-1E+20, -1E+20, -1E+20))... why the Extmin and Extmax aren't updating

Sep 6, 2013I realise this is an old thread, just wondering if any new tweaks have some to the surface to all the wheel-double-click action to be altered. Currently my mouse is set to ZOOM>EXTENTS like I imagine most people's is. Lately I've been getting a lot of "Requires a regen, cannot be transparent" errors while trying to zoom>extents, and I would like to introduce a REGEN call into the wheel-double-click macro. REGENAUTO is set to ON.

Aug 18, 2011Before I save a drawing in AutoCAD Architecture, I hit ZOOM EXTENTS so the thumbnail preview is accurate and so it comes up the same way the next time it's opened. Unfortunately, after doing a ZOOM EXTENTS, SAVE & CLOSE, upon re-opening the drawing, the view shifts downward, which usually covers up the title of the drawing.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: 3D Structural Model - Possible To Ignore Xrefs With Zoom Extents?
Nov 14, 2013I've got a 3D structural model I'm building and will insert 3D mechanical models that I have previously made. I just xref'd the client survey in such that 0,0,0 on my structural model lines up my drawing with the survey.
However, even with the xref frozen and off, when I go Zoom Extents, I zoom to the extent of the xref when I'd prefer to zoom to the extent of my live drawing. I've xclip'd the reference to only include an area slightly larger than the live dwg I'm working on, but no dice.
I think it's functioning correctly, so how do I do a zoom that takes me to the extent of my live dwg and ignores the size of the xref under it?
