AutoCAD 2013 :: Turn Off Snap To Certain Layers?

Feb 7, 2013

I often draw over topography lines and use them for reference but I don't want to snap to them. Is there any way to view an object and turn off snapping only for that specific object or layer? For instance, can you make frozen layers visible somehow so they can be viewed, but not snapped to? Or is there another way to accomplish this?

AutoCad :: Turn Snap Mode Off Globally (Snap Not Osnap)

Nov 8, 2011

We recently had a draftsman that drew with snap on (he no longer works here), and now all the drawings he worked on have this setting turned on. I thought it would be as simple as opening up the drawings and either hitting F9 or clicking on the toggle to turn off snap. That doesn't seem to be the case. Snap mode seems to be tied to individual sheets, and every viewport. I have multiple sheets in a drawing and each sheet has multiple viewports. The last thing I want to do is open every drawing, click in every viewport on every sheet to turn off snap.

I have snapmode set to 0, but it will only turn it of in whatever sheet or viewport is active. I have to write a lisp routine that will go through every viewport on every sheet to set snapmode to 0?

CorelDRAW X6 :: 6.2 SNAP - Cannot Get Snap To Grid To Turn Off

Nov 30, 2012

Snap commands in X6?  I can not get the snap to grid to turn off.  The button is off and the setting is set to off in options.  Objects seem to snap all over not just to the grid.  And the grid snap seems to be out of alignment-I cant seem to get objects to snap exactly to the grid.

The same files reopened in X5 are fine.  This started with yesterdays install of 6.2. leaving X2 completely unusable.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Setting That Will Turn On Snap All Of The Time?

Sep 24, 2013

Setting that will turn on snap all of the time instead of just when a command is active. You can't even tell that snap is on unless certain commands are active. The cursors doesn't snap on the BREAK command thus I can't use a two point break with any accuracy because the cursor doesn't snap until after the object is selected.

I need snap ALL THE TIME not just when certain commands are active.

Illustrator :: Turn Off Snap To Grid?

Jul 25, 2013

Is there away to turn off "Snap to Grid"? You find it under View - Perspective Grid - Snap to Grid. I can turn it off by clicking on it to turn off but it won't stay turned off. I tired to go into my preferences to see if you can keep it off in your setting but I do not see it. A lot of discussion boards talk about in the Transform window "Align new objects to pixel grid" and that is turned off.

AutoCAD LT :: Turn All Layers Off?

Aug 30, 2007

I know there is a command/button to turn all layers back on if most of them are off, and you want them back on. I use it all the time.

My question: is there a similar command to turn them all off? If not, why not? It makes just as much sense to me. Sometimes I want to turn all of them off, and then just turn one back on.

AutoCad :: How To Turn Off / On Some Layers In Different Layouts

Nov 10, 2011

I have found this point today!

If I want to trunoff/on some layers in different layouts, the best way is to use "vp freeze" column in layers properties manager. This way I can manipulate layers' visibility without altering them in MS or other layouts.

Left to "vp freeze" column there is "new vp freeze". I don't know what is this one?

AutoCad :: How To Turn Off Any / All Layers That Are Empty

Nov 14, 2013

I've "Binged" and "Googled" this for days, and have searched this forum internally with no luck.

I work primarily in GIS of a totally different platform than Auto Desk's offerings so my terminology may be tainted.

(I'm running AutoCad 2005 btw)

How can I tell AC to turn off any/all layers that are empty (i.e. have no objects, no block associations, no rasters etc).

I don't want to purge these empty layers as I will eventually need them.

Scenario:

All layers are turned on and visible, after I have purged empty layers that won't be needed, there are still empty layers left I will need to use later, I wish to turn off only these layers.

(There may be 20 or so layers so I was hoping for a programmatic way of doing this.)

AutoCAD .NET :: Turn Off / On All Layers In Active Document

Jan 5, 2014

I would like to turn off all the existing layers in active document. I have found in developer's guide how to turn off one layer with specified layer name but can not apply it on all layers with any layername.

I tried to get all the Object ID's in layer table and then for each object turn layer off but seems that it does not work.

AutoCad :: Turn Layers In Filters On / Off With Button?

Sep 14, 2009

How to turn on/off the layers in a filter?

In our company we use standard layerfilters, so they should be the same name in every drawing (else its gonna be a good idea to do so).

If i know the command on how to turn off of on layers who are set in a filter i can make a macro to do it for me, but i dunno if there is an way to turn of those layers with an command.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Turn On / Off Layers In Current Viewport Only

Feb 27, 2013

Turn on/off layers in the current viewport only, I’m wondering if there is a command that can be plugged on the “quick access toolbar” by which one can turn on/off layers in the current viewport only.

The available command to do so is “Freeze and thaw in current viewport” (attached) and it sounds it can’t be plugged in the “quick access toolbar”!

Is there a way to plug the command “Freeze and thaw in current viewport” in the “quick access toolbar” (attached)?

AutoCad :: All Frozen Layers Turn On When Opening File?

Jul 19, 2011

I don't have this problem on all my files, only a select few. When i save a file and reopen, all the viewports in which I have frozen layers are all reset. All layers are turned back on and I have to go through every viewport and refreeze layers. This problem has persisted long enough that I unfortunately know when I close a file I will have to reorganize the layers next time I open the file. Is this a setting issue or this a bug in the file?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Turn Off All Frozen Layers

Feb 13, 2013

I have an old routine that freezes layers that are off. I would like it to also turn off layers that are frozen. It took a while but I think I figured out how the old routine works. I was having trouble determining how the routine would know if a layer was off or not. I found if the color was a negative number that meant the layer was off  (cond ((< (dxf 62 l) 0) (command "f" (dxf 2 l)))). How do I tell if the layer is frozen?

I was also wondering what the character was after the DXF code ie. (dxf 62 l). Is is a lowercase L or an upper case i and what function does it have?

Below is the old routine that freezes layers that are off.

(defun c:fo (/ l dxf code list)
(defun dxf (code list)
(cdr (assoc code list))
);defun
(setq l (tblnext "layer" T))
[code].........
