CorelDRAW X6 :: Error When Rotating Object That Exceeds Drawing Surface
Apr 9, 2012
When rotating an object that will put any part of it outside the drawing surface, I get the following error-
Object position specified was not on drawing surface
This was never a problem for me with prior versions of Draw. Is there an option to allow Corel to do so with X6? The only workaround I've found is to temporarily increase the size of the work area, which is a bit of a pain when you're dealing with labels, not just page size.
New information: Just discovered that, if I group all elements, I can rotate them. The bug only occurs if I select (but don't group) them.

Why this message? Why do I have to "draw inside the lines"? I don't even have the boundries of a paper on my surface, so I don't know where the border is. How can I fix this?
What I tried to do here was rotating a small object 90°.

Is it possible to rotate an object along the Y axis as opposed to just rotating in a 2D circle? I know it is possible to simulate 3D rotation, but that takes some tricky maneuvering in some cases. I was wondering if it isn't just a case of holding down a combination of Cntrl & Alt or Shift and dragging a selection point.
I have seen a video where a graphic is created - video is in high speed to show the various steps involved in creating the artwork and there is a section where it looks like the artist/designer rotates a rectangle so that the top left corner appears to be moving "out" of the screen and the right corner towards the "back" of the screen. It doesn't appear to be just a skewing of the object, but in fact it looks like it's in 3D.

I'm having trouble trying to place a material onto a surface so that it aligns with the x-y coordinates. When I use drag and drop from the materials library and use ctrl to select one particular surface/face, the material drop s in fairly arbitrary.
I thought I could use materialmap to force it into a particular alignment and while I can use the commands to set the base point and alignment, the material does not update with the boxed alignment.

I have a drawing of an object and I want to fit it to the page, I can magnify it or minimize it using the mouse but this not the issue, it seems fine on the page like 1, when I go to "Arrange >> Clear transformations" it looks bigger like 2, but thats the original size, how can I change it to smaller (or bigger)?

to move an object while drawing.
·• Start drawing a shape such as a rectangle, ellipse, or polygon.
·• Hold down the right mouse button without releasing the left mouse button, and drag the unfinished object to its new position.
·• Release the right mouse button, and continue drawing.

I'm working on a large tradeshow booth design. It was suggested that if my computer can handle it, to work at scale (120 " X 90") at 150dpi. So I am.
I am nearly finished designing and now Photoshop 7 is giving me an error:
"Cannot save file...the document size exceeds 2G." Or words to that effect.
The document window tells me that the file is 970 MB, less than a Gig.
I've purged all hidden layers to reduce the overall files size. No go.
I removed the last image I had in the design, which used outer glow effect, and now the file will save.

I am issues with DEM files that I am downloading from the USGS website.I download 24k, elevation for the area I need. I then choose staged 1 second, add a surface to a blank drawing, then upload the DEM files to the surface.
The surface imports correcty, but when I try to import points taken by a surveyor on the same drawing, they plot incorrectly.The DEM surface and the points from the surveyor do not correspond. Also, the DEM surface is in meters, not feet. I have tried changing drawing settings, datum types, coordinate types, etc.

I'm rotating my object using the hotkey combo alt-middle mouse button to view my object as I work. The problem is that the object is not rotating at the gizmo. It makes my workflow turn into a workless flow because it is rotating at the object origin instead.
I'm fairly new to Max and not completely comfortable with all the tools yet.

Also, I have the same problem with both versions of Max. Obviously some setting that I'm not aware of...

I'm working on a drawing which requires me to rotate 3D rectangles until they are leaning against each other like dominos. Because they are standing on a curved path only one top corner of each will touch the adjacent rectangle, and because each one is shorter than the last the point at which they touch is different every time. There are over 40 rectangles.
I have no problem picking the correct axis of rotation for each but I want to avoid time-consuming calculations for the angle of each or the reference Point for each. Ideally I'd like AutoCAD to rotate until it recognizes that the solids are interfering.
Is there a command or a LISP for this?

I've already started using the AutoCad 3D.
how to put a 3D object on top of the another 3D object in autocad"! E.g.,I want to put a 3d object of one leaf (raised 1") on top of the vase, so that the edges of the leaf are placed completely on the surface of the vase.
I extruded the leaf 1" first, then tried to copy it on a solid cylinder of a vase, but it didn't work!!! It seems to be simple, maybe not!

Material mapping.
When I apply a material to a mass element the material follow the world UCS, that's ok with me. But when i rotate the mass element the material map remains with the world UCS but not with the object.
How to lock the material map to the object when I rotate it.

i would like to rotate an object to match the angle of another. I can measure the angle but there are many decimal points and I want it to be exact.
One method i have employed is to change the ucs - z setting to align with the object to be rotated then click it and select a point that intersects the other object (this case a line) and then the 2nd snap is somewhere along the line.
this works although sometimes i have to rotate a second time 90 deg. or 180 to get proper orientation.
Is there method, or hidden snap?

I came across an error in Photoshop CC when combining using the pen tool and rotating the canvas.
1) Create a new photoshop document
2) Draw an ellipse using the ellipse tool. Select ellipse
3) Select the pen tool. Make sure combine shapes is selected. Draw a triangle which intersects the ellipse.
4) Select Image/Image Rotation/90 CW
the triangle will rotate with the canvas but the ellipse will not.

I like to think of myself as pretty competent in AutoCAD but I can't figure this one out for the life of me...
I hope I can explain this clearly: When I rotate an object using grips, the object is not shown spinning in real time. I select the object, pick the object's grip, hit <Enter> <Enter> to go into the rotate command and the object will rotate maybe 45^ or so and freeze (visually).
If I use the command line "Rotate" command, the selected object(s) spin in real time or if I use grips to rotate but then use an object snap, it begins to spin in real time for some reason.
I would like to use grips to rotate my objects and be able to see them rotate (like I used to in previous releases).
I have ACAD Civil 3D 2010.

My company has just upgraded from stone age AutoCAD to Civil3d 2013 and I've been tasked with figuring out the program.
What I am trying to do is realign my drawing so a line I drew is horizontal to the page. For example, I have a line at a 45 degree angle and I want to rotate my viewport so that line is now at a 0 degree angle. Is there a simple way to do this?
A follow up: I have my point labels set to be a 45 degree angle, will they be at a 45 degree angle when I realign the drawing or will they "rotate" along with the drawing?

is there a way to rotate my whole drawing without actually selecting the objects in it. ? i.e to say, the drawing rotates itself according to my viewpoint [my eyes] and i dont have to rotate my neck to view the tilted objects in drawing.

Moments ago my crosshairs in the model space decided to rotate. I tried to undo, but apparently the damage is done.
I came across a thread on another website about trying UCS, world & plan etc which I tried.
While this did rotate my crosshairs to be straight and normal again, it rotated all of my drawings I have numerous sections on the page and unfortunately they all became rotated.
Is there a way to rotate the crosshairs and not change my drawing?

I'm trying to rotate a small object in Paint. When I use the rotate toolbar to enter the angle I need, the object rotates just like I want. Then I hit the apply button and some pretty heavy handed anti-aliasing is applied and the object is essentially destroyed. I've been using Paint for quite a long time so I figured there must be an option to turn this off. I can't find one. I even added the anti-aliasing button to the rotate toolbar and turned it off but that doesn't make any difference.
Essentially, what I want when I rotate an object is the chunky, pixelated preview, not the final anti-aliased so much you can't tell what it even is anymore final product.
At this point, I'm going to have to resort to rotating the object and taking a screenshot of the preview and using that instead of the mess that the final result is.

1. when I edit or create text in a particualr drawing, I can't keep the editor from rotating 90 degrees.
I've tried creating a new style and it does the same thing both in model space and in Paper Space.
2. in a new drawing, the editor jumps out of drawing area on right side of drawing space by default.

I am extremely new at Corel Draw X5. I am in the middle of a design; page 30cmx160cm (for printing purposes) however to make it easier my design is sitting 160cmx30cm
I have started the design consisting of 200+ objects. By grouping them i presumed that it would make one object and when I rotated them 90 degrees to fit the page they would rotate in the same they sat originally.
But when I rotate the group it rotates the individual objects on their individual axis not on a group axis.
Is there anyway getting around this without moving each individual object?

So I have a survey of a roadway that was created 15 years ago and was converted into autocad civil 3d 2012. No problems there, however, I am going through the survey and rotating the COGO points (ie Traffic Signs, Utility Poles) and the text to be parallel to the roadway. I am in UCS World and have no problems rotating the points and text to what I want. THe problem starts when I rotate the drawing using UCS 3P so that I am looking at a portion of the roadway that is parallel to my computer screen. Now the text and orientation of the signs etc are no longer parallel to the roadway and did not rotate when I rotated the entire project.
Now I was under the impression the points were to rotate automatically to what I set them as, ie parallel to the roadway. I'm sure this is an easy fix or I am not understanding something.

If I create some text and change it from the default size (24 pt) to 14 pt and then rotate it, the size changes to the default point size (24 pt, I have even seen it do ~17.54)
Appears to have manifested with v16.4
It also squishes the text...

I need to rotate something by 11.35 degrees, but X5 rounds the value to 11.4.
Where is the setting for angle precision, or whatever setting I need?

I have simple a 3D bottle shape created from about 16 points and I am trying to map a gif image on to it usning CS5. No matter what I have done (work from a new document, etc.) I always get the error message. I also receive this error when I attempt to map a jpg image on to the same shape. I have attempted this on three different Windows 7 machines running CS5 with the same result. When I try it with CS6 the program closes with a catastrophic error and no message. I do not receive this error using the default symbols. The gif and jpg images are imported and imbedded into the document and then moved to the symbols library.

I have two adjacent circles. I created two tangent lines between them on opposite sides. I want to connect the lines to the circles. So - I make the circle into a pie, and with the node editing tool, drag the nodes around until I see the little info text go from edge to "node" where it snaps on the nope of the line.
Before I start this, the lines are perfectly tangent. When complete, the lines are no longer tangent and the circle is shifted upwards, and is moved off the perfect tangent by different amount for each line. I can see a difference at 3200% and 11000% zoom at 0.5 point lines.
This occurs if I rotate the circle, or make the circle into an arc also.
It seems that when the circle is drawn, the center point about which its rotated, and from where the arcs/pies are drawn is not exactly center. This is happening when I manually rotate it. It I rotate it giving it a specific degree in the properties bar across the top, it rotates fine. For instance, repeating this again, the arcs of the circle is below one line, and above the other live by a lesser degree.

I know this is located in other locations but I can't seem to make it work with my block.
I would like the cross and the text N to rotate independantly of the arrow while the N stays with the thick line. That's the easy part. How can I make the N move along the rotation path and keep the text aligned horizontally? I read something about linked action and move, but I can't make it work.
