My friend has lost his ability to use Otrack. It is on and all the settings are the same as mine, but nothing "sticks" or tracks. Is there a system variable that can be responsible for this or is it something very odd. Cheers. Sean.

I am lost with 3D and now so is a friend of mine, but I am trying to help. He got a DWG from a client converted from 3D Studio max to 2010 format. My friend needs to convert this to 2007 format because most of us use 2008 and 9 (with 2007 format). However when he converts to 2007 format he gets...

Hi again It seems to work partially by moving the entity to the layer I have created, but doesn't change the properties of the object or the layer (so doesn't change dashed to dash dot for example) and the layer which you have to make yourself also has to be set up with the correct properties...

Hi Lpseifert Loaded but get this message Select source entity: ; error: no function definition: VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT Any ideas? Cheers. Sean.

The properties I am after are the same as if you are using matchprop command, ie. colour, linetype, layer global width and so on, some of which I can get directly from a copy of the layer (through design center as suggested by Exxit, but not all). Basicly I'm after a way to replicate matchprop...

Its a touch long winded but if it takes me 1 minute rather than the 5 it takes to open the drawing then got to be a bonus. Cheers. Sean.

Is it possible to match properties from a specific layer in an xref drawing to your current drawing. The xref is 5 minute opening time heavy so that its a real pain to open and copy object (or Ncopy). Cheers. Sean.

Thanks Prodraftsman. Its already set to 1 but doesn't seem to have any effect either way (zero or one).

When I use the right click option in edit mode the default right click menu comes up instead of the normal edit one. Does anybody know why? Fix? Thanks Cheers. Sean.

Can never remember how to spell plural of formula, but anyway. In autocad tables, when I write 200/225 (or something like) it is show as such, whilst my friend does the same and it is converted to a formula (being something just less than 1). Does anybody know how to turn off this formula...

Hi I have to use taskmanager but it happen with just one drawing open (or more). Other programmes are open. OS is XP. Files are normal size, 400kb with xrefs slightly bigger. Loads of disk space and 3gb ram. Cheers. Sean.

Hi I have a problem with autocad partialy freezing up on startup. The drawing opens and everthing seems Ok but the process isnt quite complete. The command line is empty (i.e. comand: isn't shown) but I can zoom in and out of the drawing with the wheel. The crosshairs aren't shown either and the...

Its normal text which one finds in tables which is mtext. It doesnt happen in all drawings just every now and then. (nothing to do with attributes)

I have a table in autocad with various text which is to be replaced. When I type in the text all the lines of the table disappear. To get the lines back I just have to move the table slightly (like a regen). But does anybody know how to avoid this? Cheers. Sean.

Perfect. Thanks. Version 2006. We are off over to 2008 soonish. Sean.

I seem to be having a problem snapping to a 3D face (basicly no snap). Are there any settings outside of OSNAP which control this action. Cheers. Sean.

Has anybody had problems running Autocad (2006) and Outlook (2007) together. Autocad seems to go super slow with outlook running but then speeds up when I get rid of outlook. I presume outlook is using rather a lot of resources, but is that the only reason? Cheers. Sean.

Just found out the answer to my own question. Viewres was set to 1 but was fine at 100.

I have a drawing with various line types in use. When I print preview and print the line types are as I hoped for, but on screen they are all continuous. Any ideas? Cheers. Sean.

Nice one. Thanks Sean
