View 3 RepliesWhen working in 3d the crosshairs seem disappear off the screen when i have zoomed in too far, as iff the crosshairs are located on 0 in the z access.
Also, and this could be related, when i try to snap to anything in the vertical it always snaps to 0 in the z axis. This makes it impossible to move anything vertacally by snapping.

I have just upgraded to 2013 from 2012. When dimensioning my viewports in paperspace, I will snap using the linear or aligned dimension and it will appear to snap to the first point, but when I snap on the other end, it will go somewhere way off the viewport or give me a "0" dim.

What distinction is between “intersection” and “apparent intersection” in snaps,. I’m not sure what difference is between the “intersection” and “apparent intersection” in snaps.

If I overlay a PDF into a DWG is there a way I can use snaps to line up the PDF on my drawing?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAt work, I notice that some of the newer draftsman (Me and about 3 other who have been there for 1-4 years) tend to prefer AutoSnaps on in some capacity and those who have been there for 7+ years tend to leave it off.
This has got me thinking about whether people prefer having AutoSnaps on in some capacity or another at all times.I tend to leave on End Point, Mid Point and Intersection on at all times, and just use CTRL + Right click to adjust as necessary.
I'm constantly picking the 'none' snap when i mean to pick 'nearest'. I want to delete 'none' from my list of snaps that come up when i click the middle mouse button. how is this done?

After working for a short time in 3D, my object snaps dont actually connect to any visible corners or points on the item I have chosen to edit or move. The triangle or square appears further from the point I select. The only work around is to close down the program and restart. After only a few transactions, the problem starts again.I have checked the system and found it is using the latest driver.

I am trying to use object snap (intersection) to position the end of my sample lines at the intersection of the sample line with a polyline. The object snap works with sample lines left of the alignment centerline but not on the right. How do I correct this?

Say you've dimensioned something but end up wanting to change the dimension definition points...drag the end point to another location that you want dimensioned.
I thought it used to snap to a new location, but now it will not. I have to redraw the dimension (including all text I added).
Here is what I get when I try to move the dimension definition point:
Here is what I get when I try the auto-reattach feature in "repair". Still nothing to snap to.
Sometimes corner snaps in sketch mode will turn off. why does this happen and how do I fix it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I have a proposed storm sewer pipe network and 90% of pipes snap to the structures fine, with a start/lengthen snap on one end and an end/lengthen on the other, and a location/pipe diameter one in the middle. When I go to draw one of the pipes though, I draw structure to structure and it doesn't sit properly. I click on it to make sure it snapped to the structure but there is no start, end, or lengthen snaps on either end of the pipe. Only a Location/Pipe Diameter one in the middle. Therefore, I cannot manipulate it's length or where it connects, I can only move it around from the center.

The only way to shut it down in using task manager. After I try to shut it down the normal way Inventor continues to consume memory, (memory usage reported in the task manager continues to increase in size)!
Also once it is terminated in task manager and then restarted, the Inventor memory usage reported in the task manager continues to increase in size with no files loaded? Never leveling off. I have monitored it for several minutes after starting it and it continues to steadily increase in memory usage.
What is this used for? From reading, it seems as though if you use this command it is a way to turn on and shut off layers?

The one you click to get the MRU list, the one you click twice to shut AutoCAD down? Is there a way to disable the shut down on 2nd click? I quite often click it once, wait for a couple of seconds with nothing happening so click it again only to watch AutoCAD disappear.

Please look at the attachment,here you will see a gusset positioned on top of a foot plate,the gusset needs to be moved so that it makes contact with the cylinder,it will then be welded. The problem is more difficult because the gusset is offset to the axis of the cylinder and the precise distance is unknown unless worked out using trigonometry.
The question is what is the best method of moving the gusset to the precise distance and direction ?

I've never experienced this before where illustrator actuall moves the anchor points where it wants.Here's a vector path on a grid created to show where the pixels are:
I select the object, swap the FILL to the STROKE and right away you can see that illustrator altered the location of the paths.I swap the STROKE back to the FILL and it alters the paths even more!Here's another example:
The paths clearly are not aligned with the pixel grid, but illustrator is trying everything it can to make the pixels line up. (This graphic has "Align stroke to inside" and is in pixel preview). Same thing but not in pixel preview.I made sure snap to grid and snap to pixel is turned off and still to no avail.
Whenever I open and use PS, then close it down, my Mac will not restart or shut down; it gets as far as that ‘wheel of death’ which keeps on turning, turning and turning, I presume forever. Force quitting PS permits closing down normally. I have uninstalled PS, reinstalled it to no avail. Thinking that my harddrive might be the problem, I ran it through TechTool Pro and that did not work. So I must have some file responsible for it. No other programs, Adobe or otherwise, cause this.

I have a user and when he's in sketch mode he trys to draw a line but it keeps on snapping to a grid. Both snap and grid setting are switched off. I can't find any settings he has different from my own set-up so I'm finding it hard to fox this problem. FYI, this user is a bit of a problem and tends to change settings without even realising he's doing it.
He's using Inventor 2012.
I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop cs6 just to test it, but it fails to launch. A Window comes up once I start it and I says "Photoshop has encountered a problem and needs to shut down", and obviously I can't even start it to see what it might be.
I have tried everything, removing and re-installing etc.. I have tried to get customer help but they are unable to give me a proper fix.
