Two bugs = one very frustrated user!!

I am a very frustrated man Autodesk!

Please let me disable middle mouse double click. Your software confuses between pan and zoom to extents. It is seriously unusable. I swear I held down the middle button once and it still thinks it's a double click.

Two, when copying from one sheet to another sheet, pasteorig gets confused between paper space and model space. The bottom model/paper space button alternates between paper space and model space and then IT GIVES UP! It is seriously wasting my time.

I found out that my mouse is oversensitive after swapping mouse. Though I still maintain that the software should have been more "robust" by allowing me to change this setting.

D,

Don't be too quick to blame AutoCAD for mouse settings. Your operating system controls most mouse functions.

As for the PasteOrig problem, can you provide more details? What do you mean by "gives up?"

This is peer support: end users helping other end users. There is no "your software" here, none of us wrote the program you use.

So, try again:
1. AutoCAD can't control your mouse. double-clicking the middle mouse is a Windows feature: see if your mouse driver can disable it. And read these: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/266738

2. Do ypu mean you simply cannot paste what you copied to the clipboard?Are you on a limited Windows user account? COPYCLIP creates a temp DWG file in your Windows Profile Temp folder, so the program needs to be abloe to delete/rename/overwrite to that location all the time.

Sorry, I didn't know. But I still hope that Autodesk staff will read this and implement the ability for us to change this mouse setting anyway. It would be nice to be able to turn off something that I don't want to trigger accidentally.

With regards to the copy, basically what happened was I created a master drawing, and continuation sheets with bigger map scales to cover each section of the overall plan. Because of convention, each zoomed in sheet will have to contain different labeling at the same location in model space, sometimes I have to drag labels everywhere (and once again due to different conventions, we have our leaders pointing towards the label instead of the object), sometimes I have to turn certain labels off where it was already already previously shown on another sheet, now I don't know what's the best practise to do this labelling chore but it was, to me (at that time), much easier to save each continuation sheet as a new drawing from the master plan. When I do, certain labels have to be copied over from the previous continuation sheet to the next continuation sheet if required to save time from recreating the multiline text, move, rotate.. so what happened was I would copy the multiline text and then switch to the other drawing and use the pasteorig command and often pasteorig command would not work.

This button here would turn cyan and alternate between "MODEL" and "PAPER" and then quite often no pasteorig happens.

And then if I am really unlucky, this error comes up. And then the program stops responding no matter which option I pick and I cannot continue. Imagine the frustration I had when it was crunch time.
