AutoCad :: Copy Paste With Base Point / Sometimes Block Insert But Its Not Showing
May 28, 2013
I have been using copy paste with base point on block from drawing to drawing but sometimes the block insert but it is not showing. I go to insert block is there but does not show in the drawing. Then tried to purge it and it does not let me because it is in the drawing but I can find it any where. Then I tried to do the insert block look for the block and inserted as a block and the same result.

I'm inserting blocks into my drawing and the block has a basepoint and a 0,0,0 point. The CAD guy who usually works with me is off today but he has a keyboard method of switching between the 2 points when inserting the block.
Its a fairly straight forward thing on his keyboard, nothing he has set up but standard in autocad.
I've had a try hitting a few keyboard buttons this morning but can't seem to do it.

When I download a drawing from some suppliers I find that I cannot do a "copy with base point" and paste that copy into my drawing except using "paste special" which leaves me with an unmanageable image. The source drawing has all the normal (it seems) attributes of a .dwg file and can be edited as a normal drawing; it just refuses to be "pasted" into my drawing. What am I missing here!

is it possible to create a block so that the base point is the only snap point on the block?
In other words supose I have a block of a simple rectangle with the base point in the center.
If I try to snap to the block, I will be able to snap to all the corners, but not the base point. I know that i can put a point at the base point, but can I turn off the snap to the corners (just for the block) in other words, have an object that is unsnapable to without turning the snap mode off.

I have a 3D file (not of my creation) that gives me some problems when I try to copy it (it is a 3D building).
The problem is that, when i click on "copy" command, I can select a point but then AutoCAD crashes and it takes about 30 seconds to return working a normal way and permit me to paste it. (it happens with "move" command too)
Otherwise, if I use "copy with base point" I have no problems: after a second I can paste it where I want.
How can it be possible? Cause if sometimes I mistake and digit "copy", I always have to wait the long Autocad response.
This problem happens with both autocad 2012 and 2013 and it doesn't happen with other 3D files I have. The drawing is made mainly of meshes.
I have a Dell notebook and a NVIDIA Quadro 2000M video card, so you can understand I don't like this problems: I spent a lot of money for something I hoped could work well with AutoCAD.
About that, aren't there drivers for the graphic card? Cause when I click on "check for updates", autocad says me that there are newer version of the driver, but then it says me that it is impossible to update it (I have a connession and a student version).

I want to move the base point of a block in the block editor. However, when I move it, the block moves accordingly in the drawing.
How can i move the base point in the editor, so that the block stays at the same position in the drawing.

We have upgraded to AutoCAD Mechanical 2012, and I am having a little trouble finding where AutoDesk has relocated a few of the 2009 commands.
Where is the new location for Copy With Base Point? I used to go EDIT > Copy With Base Point.
I am enjoying a lot of the new features of AM 2012. It will just take a while to get used to where everything is at.

I write a program, this program needs to insert some standard illustrations. I made these standard illustrations into different blocks. And I store these blocks in a dwg file. Everytime I need to insert some illustrations, I just click the mouse on the current drawing, I want the illustration inserted. These means the following points:
(1) Import the blocks to the current drawing, if the blocks have already been imported, then do nothing.
(2) Specify the insert point by clicking the mouse, and I want the block's insert point to coincide with the mouse clicking point.

Planning to overrule some of sub entities in a block. Let's make it simple . All lines and attributes in block should be circles and original block should not be seen. I came up with below code.
The code reacts differently if I remove
MyBase.WorldDraw(drawable, Wd)
and my goal is not to show the real block. Just showing whatever is overruled.
Public Class toverrule Inherits Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.DrawableOverrule Public Overrides Function WorldDraw(ByVal drawable As Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.Drawable, ByVal Wd As Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.WorldDraw) As Boolean Dim myBlock As BlockReference = CType(drawable, BlockReference) If Not myBlock.Database Is Nothing Then
[code].......

When I use the copy with base point command in paper space and try to paste it into paper space of another drawing it seems to come in on a different axis or something. I can see the view ports as they are supposed to be however the text just shows as a line. It would be as if I were to put text in model space on top view and see it just fine then go to a front view and see just a line.

Using the Copy(multiple) command button with the following sequence (working correctly): Copy command, window objects to copy, right click to close selection, pick base point,
pick new location point(s),...right click to close the command.But sometimes it decides to do this: Using the same Copy(multiple) command button with the following sequence (not working correctly):
Copy command, window objects to copy, right click to close selection, pick base point..At this point the copy comand closes out. It has assumed a single copy, 0,0,0 base point
& tossed the copied objects out in model space accordingly. But as stated it only does this periodically.

I am learning autolips and i found a problem that i can´t solved.
(vl-load-com)(defun c:pmb ( / ss ent pt )(prompt "
selec block : ")(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "INSERT")))) (setq ent (ssname ss 0)), (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 (entget ent)))) (command "point" pt))
wich this code you select one block and insert one point at insert point´s block.
which this other code yo select all block and insert all point.... but in one block
(vl-load-com) (defun c:pmb11 ( / sele cod bloque nbloque lista pt ) (prompt "
block: ") (setq sele (ssget ( List'(0 . "INSERT"))) Cod 0 )cod (1+ cod) (repeat (sslength sele) (setq bloque (ssname sele cod)) (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 ( entget bloque)))) (command "punto" pt) );repeat )

I have a generic title block that I made in a template. When I start a new drawing its there and i can click it and edit some of the fields, alls good. However, I have a few drawings that I want to have the same fields in so I try to copy and paste the title block in the one drawing into the other but when I do this is pastes the title block from the template and not the one that I edited in the other drawings and copy/pasted.
