I am having a problem with a delay in selecting an object and selecting a command.
When I select an object the pointer has at least a 3 second delay before it starts moving around normally again. It is the same with selecting a command. This has started to get tedious. It has worked fine in the past so I don't think it is a RAM/graphics card problem.
how to match up certain points. I have imported 2 point clouds and have tried to use the 'align' tool to specify three points from the source object (cloud) and three points from the destination object (cloud). When doing this, it does not properly align them. The point cloud makes it difficult to select the exact point I would like to align, since there may not be a point at that exact location, but close to it. Does AutoCAD require the points in alignment to match up perfectly or is it capable of doing a best fit?
Also, is AutoCAD capable of creating a solid 3D piece from the point cloud? I would like to take all of my points and make a smooth object.
I was wondering if there is a way to select specific 3D points out of a point cloud (.pcg). I am new with Autocad and handling of point clouds .
I can think of various things that you might want to do, as in clean up a bit the data or even delete some areas that you are not interested with. additionally, one might want to do some calculations, so selecting points first and the running a list script to use that points can be handy as well.
I select one block to insert . However,how can I get the Blockname before select the insered point?
I found the BlockTableRecord.BlockInsertionPoints event. It is meaning that it can only apply to the whole BlockTableRecord type rather than some individual block references (AutoCAD INSERTs)
Is it possible to select lines (maybe up to 6 lines) around an intersection point with a reference line. There is one intersection point and the lines are around it. And also, both the intersecting lines are in different layers.
How to get the ObjectARX's ArxDbg tool working on autocad 2012. ObjectARX 2010 sample project fails to open in VS2010 express.
when selecting a point group from the prospector tab, sometimes the point grips will light up and sometimes only the points will be only dashed.
Having the grips light up like that is very useful when viewing a region with many point groups.
How do I toggle this on and off?
I created two lines.
Before this problem appears, if I select one line then another line one-by-one, they are all selected.
But now, when I select one line then another line one-by-one, only last one is highlighted as selected (dashed line, two blue endpoints, and one blue middlepoint), the other one is not.
How do I switch back to the previous one?
I am using autocad 2012 new.. i hav problem with MOVE!

Virtually all coordinate entry as well as many other tools and operations reference the current UCS. 2D tools.
Absolute and relative coordinate entry Absolute reference angles Definition of horizontal and vertical for Ortho mode, polar tracking, object snap tracking, grid display,and grid snap Orientation of horizontal and vertical dimensions Orientation of text objects View rotation using the PLAN command
Moving or rotating the UCS can make it easier to work on particular areas of a drawing. However when selecting an object or a portion of the dwg. crossing - window , (a good exemple is stretching) the selection of the area is still 'rectangular' from the ortho of 0° or 90°. This cross-window selection should follow the direction of the ortho angle selected. Is there a command or a setting in order for this operation to take place? IF NOT for future autoCad releases or a update for current releases should be reviewed and implemented
I created a legend in paperspace with a white background hatch. I want to move all of the text and symbols. When I select everything at the same time, it also grabs the hatch fill underneath. I can't do a window select to grab everything and shift select to subtract out of the hatch underneath.

I edited a .jpeg in Photoshop, and removed the baground. I have a picture of a snowflake. It is on a blue rectangular background. I ONLY ant the snowflake in Publisher, so I edited the picture in Photoshop and now I have JUST the snowflake with softened edges in Photoshop. But when I go to paste it into Publishe, I always get an image with a white rectagular background, which defeats the purpose of the editing in the first place.. How do I get JUST the snowflake layer to paste into the flyer?

User select texts on screen. => Making a Selection Set of those selected texts. DONE
For each select text is on screen another text (on another layer) with the same coordinates.
For each text in the first Selection Set, I try to create a second SelectionSet (filtered to select text only, named acPSResPCode) but that SelectionSet stay always null. If I make the SelectionSet without filter I select every lines in the crossing windows, but no text are selected.

I selected an object (a hand) using the magic wand tool and filled it in, black. I want to select everything else in the image (other then the hand I just filled in), and fill it in white. What is the bes way of going about this? Can I fill in the hand white, and so some kind of inverse of the image? (The background is of an office, so lots of different colors and objects).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm learning AutoCAD's api and it's going pretty good. I would like to let user select some objects in model.
In model space we have few blocks (filled circles with center point). I'm iterating through the objects, and storing center points into some array (just example).
Now I would like to check if at each point I have specify object (like line, polyline, etc), so in other way - if my object is intersecting with line/polyline.
Method IntersectWith determine points between two objects, but I know (and if yes to get) if there is line/polyline at this point.
Is there any smart way to do this? Instead of iterating each block through each line/polyline?
How do you select an object with a complicated background. For instance if I want to select a pine tree in forest and the tree is in the foregrond and there are trees of the same color in the background, I have found it hard to select because of the similar colors...all of the tutorials I have seen all have a single color back ground ie a girl with hair and doing a refind edge is pretty straight forward....but how do you do that with a busy background..(for instance ) I want to select a pine tree with all of it componets and plant it in the middle of the desert.

there's an invisible 10px border around each object/shape. it's so frustrating when i'm working on small icons or whatnot.i'll try and give an example the best i can... say i have two squares overlapping and are offset from each other by a 5px or so. if i want to select the back square, i'd normally... click on the part of the square i can see. in cs6, if i just click on the visible part of said square, it would select the front square. i have to click at least 10px out from the back square to select it.

I've asked this in the X5 board before, gave up, and it's still bugging me with X6.
[URL].......
So I group a few objects, apply drop shadow to the group, and now I want to select one of the object in the group (to move it or resize it, etc).
I just can't find an effective way to do this without discarding the drop shadow, edit, and reapply the drop shadow. There have been many suggestion that seems to work for certain people, i.e. Ctrl+Click, Ctrl+Alt+Click, Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Click, but none works as desire.
In the attached example, I try to select the red square. If I Ctrl+Click, it selects the whole group. If I Ctrl+Alt+Click, it either selects the yellow circle, or edits the drop shadow.
If I Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Click, the result is random. It either selects the blue background square, or selects the yellow circle, or edits the drop shadow, and once in a blue moon successfully selects the red square.
Using AutoCAD from another drafting program and trying to determine if AutoCAD has a feature I have become used to. The program I am using is Vectorworks and they have these items called loci. They are basically just snap points that do not print and are not actually geometry. They are great though for aligning items and referencing points. Is there a similar item in autocad?
