AutoCAD LT :: Polar Tracking Extension Lines Not Working
Dec 9, 2005Having problem of polar tracking extension lines working in one direction, but not perpendicular to that orientation? For example, when drawing a simple rectangle after drawing (2) sides, If I go to snap to my initial starting point to show a vertical extension line to intersect with my third line I am drawing, the vertical extension will not show up, even though the horizontal extension line is visible, and even though it snaps to the my starting point to where I wish have the polar tracking show the vertical extension.

Sep 29, 2011All my polar tracking options are turned to Zero.
strangly enough its does give me one tracking option (read line) wile drawing at 5°
and when i draw a square it seems like my plane is off a bit (prolly 5°, looks like a perspective)
Tried fiddling around with the DSETTINGS command but nothing goes.
so i s my plane off, UCS off, also i get sometimes 1 out of 10 times an innorect SNAP ( snap to a point and its off by a 0,x margin. i
AutoCad :: Unable To Create A Line Along Z Axis When Polar Tracking Is On
Feb 3, 2012I seem to be having trouble with polar tracking on. With this activated and in front view I can only create a line in up or down (Y) direction. I cannot create a line along the z axis. This happens randomly so I must be overlooking a setting somewhere.

Sep 18, 2013I have a drafter that is using AutoCAD LT 2013. When they are drafting it acts like the Snap is on and Poplar tracking does not seem to be working. They do not have Snap on and they are using Polar tracking.
Have looked at all the setting that I can think of and compaired it to my AutoCAD 2009, full version. Our setting are identical. We both have Windows 7. I have mine set to look like XP, they have theirs with a custom looking display.
AutoCad :: Object Snap Tracking Not Working?
Feb 18, 2009I love the feature of Object Snap Tracking but for some reason or another it has stopped working. I normally use F11 to turn it on or go through the drafting settings menu to turn it on. The Object Snap Tracking box is checked and should work, but it doesn't. Is there a magic variable that needs to be set?

Oct 23, 2013Since AutoCAD 2013, I'm not able to use tracking when inserting block from tool palette. Example, I want to insert a door at 6 inches from a wall. I click the door from the tool palette, leave a tracking point at the wall corner, move the cursor in the right direction and type 6 follow by enter. The door is insert randomly in the drawing. It was working perfectly in previous release.
Actually I had to insert the door anywhere in the drawing and moving it at the right place and rotate it if required, it is very tedious.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Polar Array Function
Jul 2, 2013I have drawn a bar counter in 3d which has a top rectangular shape with curved corners. The front of the bar has 100mm wide wooden fascia panels and they need to follow the line of the bar. I am using the Polar Array function which works great except I cant seem to get the panels to follow the curves/arcs around the corners, but they sit neatly on all the straight edges of the bar. So in other words the panels are straight and lined up on the straight parts of the bar but the panels stay at 90 degrees instead of following the curved areas of the bar.

AutoCAD 2010 :: POLAR And ORTHO Dynamic Displacement Display
Aug 22, 2013I would love for my 2011 and 2013 to work the same as my 2008 does.
In 2008, when I grab a grip and stretch it with either ortho or polar turned on, I get a little tooltip beside the crosshairs. All it says is the distance and the angle, and whether it is Ortho or Polar. For example, if I stretch to the left with ortho on, it may say
Ortho: 16.55 < 180°
Or if I stretch up and to the right with Polar on, it will say
Polar: 16.55 < 45°
I really, really really want this back! This is not dynamic input, I hate all that ridiculous clutter around my crosshairs. But this little info box is absolutely invaluable!
I have checked the Tooltip setting (on in all versions), And I've been playing with all the Dynamic Input settings, but I can't get it to work. The odd part is that 2011 was working until about a week ago. I'm not sure if 2013 was or not.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Linear Parameter Stretch With Polar
May 6, 2013I am trying to be able to have my outreach arm stretch horizontally and on angles of 5 / 10 / 15 degrees from the pole. I have been able to make the polar stretch for this and it works fine though what i am trying to do is have the luminaire height also stretch and move when the size of the outreach changes (i can make the linear dimension work the way i want though not the luminaire parameter) as when you add the paremter into the stretch action is only moves the top and leaves the bottom at the same location which is not giving me the correct height.
The block itself is alot more complicated then this I have stripped most of the parameters out to make it less confusing but the end result would allow the user to input the outreach angle, outreach length and luminaire height. I have attached drawing for your reference.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Determining Polar Coordinates On Hard Copy Drawing
Aug 19, 2012I just started my CAD classes. I have been doing basic 2d drawing and just learning the commands etc.
My question concerns polar coordinates. I know how they work, but are you expected to be able to get polar coordinates off lets say a hard copy drawing with no annotations.
My homework so far has always had the length of the lines depicted on the drawing but not the angles. So if I was required to replicate a drawing that had no annotation is there any way other than guessing or whipping out my protractor.
This is just a nagging thought as I strive to understand CAD.
