AutoCad :: Does (Limits) Mean Dimension That Displays In Work Screen
Jul 6, 2013
I set a "limits" in my drawing(command "limits"-- "lower left corner is 0,0" --- upper right corner " is set as 20, 20--enter)
But then I moved my mouse horizontally and vertically on the screen, and found that the coordinate value at the bottom was from -25 on the left to 18 on the right, and from 0 at the bottom to 15 at the top. I am confused about what on earth does that limit? should it be 20 in length and 20 in width?
Is there any way to force IV to allow more than the 5 decimal place resolution that is listed in the Units drop down box?
And is there any way to force the result in the distance command to show all the decimals even if they are zeroes? When I specify 6 decimal places in the distance / measure command, I want to see 6 decimal places. If I don't, then I don't know if the rest of the digits are zeros or if it just didn't accept my choice to show 6 decimal places.
Ok it seems that I may be overlooking something simple. This is what I am currently dong. I have a detail sheet with several different scales. I want to use annotative dimensions and mleaders so I don't have to create the many dimstyles for different scales.
My set up:imagine a model space with 4 squares reprsenting 4 different scales. I start annotating in 1"=1'-0". Then I go to another detail at 3/4" = 1'-0". When I change my scale using that item in the lower right my annotations in the 1"=1'-0" also changes. I don't want it to change I want it to stay at 1"-0". How can I make it stay at 1'=1'-0" regardless of whatever other scale I have switched to?
When I am trying to dimension a room in AutoCAD 2014 the dimension looks like a solid rectangle, with no text. I am dring in Architectual mode using the default template.

I'm working on a large image and while the Organizer is fine with it, neither the Editor nor the Full Screen view of the Organizer will work with it.
Currently I have MaxImageSize at 200M, but can't find a similar setting for the Editor, and clearly it doesn't work for the full screen view either, so if there is a setting that enables these functions, that would be useful information.
I have a Photoshop document made by someone else that I am opening. There are 5 layers. 3 are hidden. When I hide all the layers, the image still appears on screen.
In the layers palette I see Unify: with 3 icons to click on and Propogate Frame 1 is checked. I don't believe I have ever seen this before in the layers pallete. Below I have an image of what is going on. Not sure if there is a way to set up a file like this when starting a new document or what, but this is what's happening; all layers hidden, but image appears.
I used to download photos into the organizer and they would show up in a window that displayed only the current photos being downloaded. I must have done something to change that because now photos go directly to the main organizer window. I have a lot of photos and its getting harder to find them in the mix. how to get that screen back that only displays the newest photos being downloaded at that time?
CS4 Extended. Early 2008 iMac 24", 4 GB RAM, updated to Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.3 in Dec 2012.CS4 (11.0.2) was working fine with no issues until 2 weeks ago. The startup splash screen loads and displays messages about various tools being loaded....
However, it does not go beyond: "Reading Color Settings...." and I get the spinning color ball if the cursor is over the splash screen and a blue spinning ball when the cursor is outside the splash screen.Have to use "Force Quit" to get out of the program.Adobe Acrobat Reader also does not work. Upgraded from Adobe LightRoom LR2 to LR4 and that works fine!
Here is what I have tried:
Uninstalled Acrobat Reader and CS4 Rebooted the computer Re-installed CS4 (legit copy and have serial #) Re-installed Reader Checked for updates on Adobe site and updated CS4 to 11.0.2 Rebooted the computer Started CS4..... Got to the same step "Reading Color Settings..." and the programs hangsThought that some crucial file(s) in the System may have been damaged/corrupted, so...Re-installed Mountain Lion to potentially remove/overwrite damaged filesRebooted the computer Launced CS4 and got the same results as in step 7 above
why after selecting Dimension, Angular, then selecting two lines, I do not get the angle between them? I am using v 2000 if it matters. I enclose a screen shot of the two lines I need the angle of.
I cant get a dimension to work in the vertical (Z) plane. i have a cube and can get dimensions to work properly in the x*y plane (horizontal) but when i try to dimension the vertical side autocad refuses to dimension anything vertical, all i get is a horizontal dimension of the distance between the 2 points i have selected vertically, set down on the horizontal plane. tried to get it to work in 3d workspace and also the 2d annotation & dimensioning workspace -no joy...
If I double click a workplane in the browser, the edit dimension dialog comes up half way off screen, does not remember the screen position if I move it, so it has to be repositioned every time. Seems to be tied to the browser position.
If I do a command such as regen, or switch between tabs/modelspace, generally anything that seems to involve a screen update, then immediately following that if I try something like a Shift-Tab type of operation, there is no response from autocad until I move the mouse. This is consistent if hardware accelertion is turned on or off, so I can't go blaming the video drivers just yet.

Just recently I have been getting a 'dead space' in the center of my workspace in LR4. Whatever tool I am using will not work in the center of the screen.
I have a 1920x1080, 17.4 laptop. That is approx 126.6 ppi screen resolution if my calculkations are correct...So in order to set PS to display real size of the images according to the zoom, I go to edit / preferences / units & rulers and set the screen resolution to 126.6 instead of the default 72ppi.
But nothing changes...what am I doing wrong? 100% zoom is still showing much larger image than real (as if 72ppi screen resolution was unchanged). I have tried extreme ppi like 10 and 1000 to see if anything chaged but still nothing, I have restarted Ps and the laptop, and the preferences are correctly saved but zoom still wrong..
I just bought a 15.6" Asus Q500A touchscreen laptop with Windows 8. I downloaded photoshop and the 'touch app plug-ins' through the Adobe Application Manager for creative cloud. When I open a file in PS and select the brush(or any other) tool if I use the touch screen to drag it accross the canvas nothing happens. It still works with my mouse though.
I have a packard bell with a multi-touch screen, but when using Photoshop CS6 my touch screen doesn't work... is this just settings or prefs i need to adjust?

1.) Sometimes when I open a file I can't see it, BUT I can see the layers in the layers palette. It's like the file is open but not visible. 2.) Sometimes the screen modes don't work; when I switch modes, all the palettes disappear and never re-appear properly.
Turning OpenGL on (or off!) occasionally fixes problem 1.Restarting the computer fixes problem 2, sometimes...
I'm here with 2013 SP2 64 bit Build 200 and two screens. Left screen is graphics area, Browser is on the left of right screen. Graphics is ATI Fire Pro V7800 with driver 9.3.3.3000.
In video (zipped MP4) you see a cutout of both screens, think of screens changing at the left of the browser.
Now, in many cases, after doing an operation, the browser is jumping back to the middle of my graphics in the left screen.
I am looking at getting a laptop and I found a nice one with a 15 inch screen. Will I be able to see and work well with programs such as Photoshop and After Effects.
Just wondering so I know if I should buy this to do Photoshop work on.
I have Windows 8, and Photoshop CS6. All of my blending modes work, except for Screen. I don't know why it doesn't, but I do use it somewhat frequently, and it's really holding me back at this point.
I am using Video Studio X6 trial and the Screen Capture feature does not work.The capture window opens but the Capture Button is grayed out along with the Sound Source button.
I am running this on an XP SP3 system with - 4 GB memory 2.66 Ghz dual core processor
Is there any information available as to what requirements my system may not have? All other programmes run OK on the computer.
Screen capture doesnt work in psp x4. I tried searching for this but no info at all on it. I have to resort to using the print screen option in windows and then paste as new image.
When i use an adjustment brush it will not work when I move the cursor to the center of the screen, in the rest of the image, and when I move or zoom the image it will work, so I can use the adjustment brush anywhere in the image, as long as it is not in the center of the screen.
I'm on CS6 on a year old iMac. Plenty of RAM and memory. For some reason all of a sudden, the tools on the left hand side of the screen won't work. All I get is the hand. What I hit or what happened. I've re-started PS, the computer and reset Bridge. How to reverse what happened?
(I use Macromedia Freehand MX), I just recently download the trial illustrator, and my question is to know how to open points in Illustrator images for screen printing in freehand using the Halftone in Illustrator I've tried but is not the same as the finish is different and of very poor quality here is a sample as freehand and illustrator as stated in:
Look at the difference of points:
As you can see in Illustrator can only do that from the menu: Effects / Pixelate / Color Halftone... , not sharp as seen in the picture above and therefore the image does not get to see very well, while in freehand if you can manipulate the points from large fine to a point, points also can be made round, linear or ellipse and therefore may work better for screenprints and other designs that open nesecitan points at home. What I'm interested to know if there is another way to work so that the image is sharp with the open items as well as in freehand.
