AutoCad 2D :: Inaccurate Nearest Osnap
Oct 22, 2012My "Nearest" osnap is not even close to snapping to my circle. All other snaps are working fine, nearest snap are working on lines and rectangles, not at all on circles.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Inaccurate Grading Volumes
Aug 29, 2012I have noticed that the value I get when I use the surface volume comparison tool or look at a graded item in the grading group properties box is different than if I calculate it by hand and the discrepancy isn't even consistant. After spotting this problem in a job I am working on graded two simple ponds to check this. The first one is 100' x 100' and 5' deep w/ 2:1 side slopes. Calculating the volume by hand I get 1500 cu. yds but the grading group properties come up to 1506.17 cu. yds. The accuracy is off by less than 0.5% The second pond is 100' x 100' and 2' deep with 3:1 side slopes. The hand calc gets me 654.52 cu. yds. and the grading group properties reads 655 cu. yds. This discrepancy is closer to 7%. I really need to know if I can trust the volume tools in the program.

Nov 22, 2011I know of DIMRND, but how is it possible make acad round dimensions UP (within a specified value) instead of to the nearest?

AutoCAD LT :: Can Get Nearest Snap To Work On Multileaders

AutoCAD 2010 :: Round Dimensions Up Not To Nearest
Feb 23, 2012I am looking for a way to get my dimensions to round up instead of to the nearest.
For example... when I have one line that is 11-15/32" and one that is 11-17/32" and I need them to round up to the nearest 1/4". I want it to round up, showing 11-1/2" and 11-3/4" but instead i get 11-1/2" for both.
AutoCAD .NET :: Find Nearest Polyline With Block?

I managed to write the program to do this manually for a selected pline and block.
How can I automatically select a pline nearest to the selected blocks' insertion point?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Frame Generator - Inaccurate Insertion Point Error?
Aug 8, 2013I've been using Frame Generator for at least 4 years and have not seen this issue before. Maybe I "bumped" a setting somewhere or a number changed in a default setting somehow, but lately when I insert a square tube frame piece into an assembly, it seems to be not accurate in it's placement.
Example: If I make a simple cube part that measures 28.0" wide and
Insert some frame generated square tubing on the edges of the cube, the frame measures 27.999999992 in - slightly off from where I inserted it. This seems to repeat without fail in every new assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Function Evaluation - Rounding To Nearest Whole Number
Mar 14, 2012One of the users on mCADForums discovered this bug.
"I have a value of 3516.41mm and I want to round it to the nearest whole number.
I have tried to use the round command and it seems to round up to the nearest 10 so 3516.41mm would round up to 3520mm. So how do I get would I go about rounding to the nearest whole number?"
I suspect this is due to Inventor's internal units being cm. However as we specific "a" to be in mm and "b" to be in mm this should not be happening.

View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Inaccurate Rulers
Nov 7, 2006I'm running CS2, and when i open a document of any type the size of the image isn't accurate. For example: when i open an image of 800x600 pixels and set the magnification to 100%, i should easily be able to see the whole image on my screen, however i can only see a small section of it. To view the whole picture i have to reduce the magnification to 25%.
When i look at the rulers at 100% magnification an inch for example displays as more like 2 inches.
I'm using a 20" monitor with a resolution of 1680x1050 so there shouldn't be a problem viewing these images at 100%

View 7 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Inaccurate Marquee Tool
Apr 2, 2012I've recently upgraded from Photoshop cs3 to cs5.1 and have noticed that the marquee tool's selection is not as accurate as I'd like. For something simple like drawing a selection around a square I could previously do this down to the exact pixel with a single click and drag. My process (while working at 100%) now goes like this:
i) Choose which bit of the cursor I place in the top left of the square to trace (I use the black inner lines)
ii) Click and begin dragging and see that the selection in the top left is now 1 pixel down and 1 pixel to the right of where I clicked.
iii) Drag the selection to the bottom right of the square and align the inner lines of the crosshair
iv) Release the mouse button. The top left corner now springs back into the originally clicked position (good). The bottom right corner now jumps up to 2 pixels up and 2 pixels left of the actual corner.
I am left trying to approximate how far past my object corner I overshoot in order for it to be correct when it 'jumps' back. It feels as though I'm getting similar selection errors as if I was working at a random image zoom such as 337%
Jumping problem is the same if 'snap' is turned on or off...The problem occurs at 100% and is marginally improved at 200% - although I can't get an accurate selection in 10 attempts.Also in cs3 the Marquee tool's crosshair was 1 pixel thick and now in cs5.1 it is 3 pixels thick due to the white outline around it, I find this harder to use and unable to switch off.Selecting cursors 'precise' in preferences doesn't fix it
CorelDRAW X5 :: Inaccurate Export To Bitmap
Mar 28, 2011I have a bunch of objects on a CorelDraw page that together make up a button for a web page. I select all the objects: the toolbar tells me that the selection is 281px x 59px.
I press Export, selected only, the preview comes up. My button suddenly is 283px x 61px. Looking closely I can see a faint border around the actual button image.
What setting do I have to change to make it export what I tell him and not what he thinks?

View 9 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: PS CS Exporting Inaccurate Colors
Apr 11, 2005I've been noticing in PS CS that when i SFW (save for web) or just plain 'save as' the colors always end up a bit lighter than the original. I have no idea what is going on, i've never played with the settings so I'm not sure what changed, and i thought it might have been the color modes (mode = RGB, working proof setup = cmyk) but nothing seems to make a difference. It could be that the document mode is RGB and i'm working in a proof setup of CMYK, but I don't know enough to tell. I would play with it some more, but I don't know what is default and what isn't. Its really a pain to have inaccurate colors when exporting, especially when working with gradients or light colors, where they are subtle already.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Osnap Pick Prioritizing
Mar 16, 2012In selecting a point in a drawing to connect new poly lines to existing objects, is there a way to set the order to which osnap elements are used?I have perhaps 1/2 of the osnap element settings activated. End point, Mid point, Node, Intersection, etc.
When I go to select, it's like everything EXCEPT End Point is recognizing. And while I can go to right click, and select end point, I am now wondering, if besides the rt click, there is a way to preset the priority, or order in which the osnap elements recognize the type.Without resetting the settings each time.
AutoCad :: Change Shortcuts For Osnap On / Off
Jan 8, 2013I want to change the shortcuts for osnap on/off (default F3) and ortho on/off (default F8 ) to either F1 and F2, or some letter like q and w, or ctrl+w and ctrl+e.
I cant find them under cui-->all commands. Don´t know if they are there somewhere.
Is it possible to change them to either of the above shortcuts?
I prefer F1 and F2 if it´s possible, then q and w and last if neither of the other two is possible ctrl+w and ctrl+e.

Is there a way to let the hatch “feel” the snap?
