AutoCad :: Insert Block - Switch Between Base-point And 0,0,0 Point?

Apr 29, 2013

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.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Generating Base Map - Survey Code Offset

Sep 17, 2012

I am just beginning to use the Survey features in Civil3D 2012 to generate a base map.  When we use the offsets, we are having issues when we have a negative number: BC ST H-.5.  The line will not offset, it just comes in directly on top of the original line.  When we use a positive number, it offsets correctly: BC ST H1.4 V.1.  Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be changed for it to read the negative numbers?

AutoCad :: Create A Block So That The Base Point Is The Only Snap Point On The Block?

Aug 22, 2013

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.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Not Able To Select Base Point

Sep 13, 2012

Having problem of trying to Move, Copy, Stretch etc an object and instead of being able to select a base point...Displacement (which is the default at the command prompt) is somehow selected and your object goes off to coordinate points?  It's probably just a setting or its my mouse, but I didn't change anything and I'm just starting to see the problem.

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.

AutoCad :: Copy With Base Point And Paste Into Drawing

Mar 16, 2012

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!

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Shifting Base Point

Mar 24, 2011

I am in the process of converting some static blocks to dynamic blocks.  My procedure has been:

1) cut the drawing out of model space.

2) erase all

3) purge all

4) open the block editor and paste drawing in

5) set the base point to 0,0

But when I insert the block in another drawing the base point shifts.  I have included the block (_beam.dwg) and the block inserted (dwg.dwg)

Why?  I must be missing a setting, property or something.

AutoCad :: Updating Xrefs Which Has Moved Base Point

Oct 3, 2012

I would like to easily update an xref which has moved base point. I work doing mechanical and electrical drawings and we draw our stuff with the Architect's background xref 'd in. Sometimes though, they will change the base point for no reason and all the m&e stuff is miles away. There are two things I can do, I can moved their xref they sent us to match the old location or I can move the m&e stuff to suit the new location (i normally do this because i want to use their base point which is the right thing to do, but i would have to move all the things in all the m&e drawings to suit). Is it better to update an xref that has moved base point but without all the hassle?

AutoCAD LT :: 2012 - Move And Stretch Base Point Selection

Feb 10, 2012

I select my objects to move, then I select my Base Point to move my objects away from, then when I select my destination point the command changes the Base Point to the selected destination point and asks me again to select a destination point.

I have realized this problem occurs not only with the move command, but also the stretch command. Also, it does not matter if I am using command modifiers or not, the problem occurs regardless.  Also, it does not matter how I hit enter using the command (keyboard enter button, space bar, or right mouse button) the problem occurs regardless, and occurs entirely AT RANDOM.

Following previous what I have attempted to resolve the problem:

 - remove the AutoCAD LT 2012 from the computer entirely and re-install

 - installed the latest LT 2012 Service Pack

 - changed the mouse to a new, wired mouse (I was already using a wired mouse in the first place)

 - change the keyboard (which I think is irrelevant since changing the mouse did not work either)

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Add Station And Offset To A Point

I currently have a drawing with a road alignment and stationing.  Is there a way to automatically station and offset a point that is not on the alignment line?  

For instance, our alignment line is the centerline of the road.  I need a station and offset of the new right of way line points at different places in the drawing.  I want to use the alignment stationing to have it automatically create the station and offset at the point I choose.
