I can't find my Command Line Window. It somehow became undocked and is no where to be found on my screen. It does not appear to be floating anywhere. I've gone through all my display settings; however it says that it should be there and show 3 lines of commands.
The command line window moved from the default location at the bottom of the screen to a floating position while I was working on a drawing yesterday. I don't know what I did but can't move or resize to get it back down to the bottom where it belongs. I can get it to dock to the left and right or float but nothing else. It doesn't behave like the the other palettes n that I can't seem to drag it anywhere.
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...
The options window will not display when typing "options" in the command line or selecting from the drop down. The options menu has to be hidden somewhere because AutoCad will not allow any other commands after typing options until I hit escape. I have tried restarting CAD and rebooting my computer with not luck.
I'm not able to find any control for changing line width in stylized view type like tech, ink etc. Is there a control available for it or is it just as it is solution?
Feature is nice though and it would be nice to have such minor controls for it.
I press CTRL+9 to make the Command Line disappear while drawing. When I plot (or when doing a plot preview) , the Command Line appears again by itself. So I always have to turn the Command Line off manually after each plot
The bug still happens;
- if Dynamic Input is turned off or on - if I plot to a real device or in PDF - if the Cammand Line Palette i docked or floating.
This is not an issue in AutoCAD 2012 so I guess it has to do with the new way they programmed the revamped Command Line palette in 2013.
without reiterating a lot of what is said in this thread: [URL] ......
This happen outside the potential malware infection?
if you care to not click-through, the problem is that certain commands (not all of them) simply do not disply in the command line. so the MOVE command for example looks like this:
if I select a line, then enter the move command, the line unselects also when I select a line, then hit delete, the line is still there both of these used to work
Basically I got a process which is quite long , let's say 30 seconds.
I want put a counter at command line showing to
user how many objects has been processed so far. But I don't want to use New Line Feed to change the line and keep each new number at same line and same location of command line.
I need to programmatically change the 'Window command' (Commande de fenêtre in French) color. I didn't find anything in Application.Preferences neither in the registry.
By 'Window command' I'm talking about the feature comming with A2012 displayed in the upper left corner of model space windows:
How can I draw a straight line without that protractor shaped dotted line following my cursor making it lag and also not snap correctly to the next line? Also, I have noticed that I can't set my user interface to auto cad classic settings. There seems to be no option for it in workspace settings.
We have 10 MB DWG file containing Electrical network Map with 25,000 customer numbers as block attributesIn AutoCAD 2013 LT the searching of above block attributes using “FIND” command is very very slow (almost 2 to 3 minutes to perform the search)Also the closing of “FIND” windows takes lot of time“FIND” command was working fine in earlier version of AutoCAD 2008 in same computers (Dual core PC, 2 Ghz, 2 GB RAM)
I'm trying to create an alignment for a road I'm drafting but the alignment seems to be scaled differently and I can't find any scale command for alignments. I know that the dimensions of the model space are correct but the alignment dimensions are scaled down by a factor of 12 (I'm assuming it converted my feet to inches).
Ex: say my road is 100 Ft long and when I measure it in Model (using the AREA--> OBJECT command on my centerline of the road) it measures to 100 Ft but when I create an alignment for it the alignment tells me the road is only 8.33 Ft.
as title if I need to select one by one,it will be too slow....Should this function be accompolished by LISP? But I am not familiar with LISP.... the situation is that I have many irregular lines distributed in disorder, and what I want to do is just lengthen these lines "3.5" Meters from the start point of each line.
If I can do this way , then I can join the line to some points correctly in Arcmap.
With the command window displayed at the bottom of the screen, everything slows down. The cursor momentarily freezes and it takes a second or two for commands to be fulfilled. Also, the command window is about 7 lines high; in the past, I have shrunk it to maybe 3 or 4 lines but I cannot shrink this wndow.
Then, when I push control-9 and the window disappears, everything speeds up to normal!
I tried turning off my internet connection and my McAfee Viruscan as well. Running without the command window makes it hard to draft. Since I type shortcuts, I figure I must have hit the wrong key and unleashed something unspeakably terrible.
I am running AutoCAD version 10 on my PC, with Windows XP Professional.
I'm using Inventor 2011 and can't find any thread inserts in 'hole' command. Neither helicoil nor recoil - are they unavailable? Cose that would be a bit poor. Can I ****ch them on somehow?
I wrote some LISP programs. I would like to use the output data generated by LISP program in Command arear of AutoCAD. I Heard we can dave the output data into .dat files.
Suddenly, the multi line text editor in no longer displaying when I select "new" from within the DIMEDIT command. I'm presuming that there is some sort of system variable that controls this, but I have not been able to find it in the help files. The Mtext editor is working from the Mtext command, so I know it's not the DTEXTED variable.
I can't snap to a midpoint in a line. For example, If I draw a line 10" long, I can't draw a line from the center of that line. It used to give me an auto snap option to go to, but now it only allows me to snap to the ends of that line.
