auto cad running Yosemite

I downloaded and installed YOSEMITE and now, when using auto cad, I cant use the trackpad as I did with maveriks. When using two fingers, instead of moving it like wiht "the hand" (like 3 fingers on osx apps), it zooms....is really annoying. PLEASE HELPPPP

Hi,
Yes, indeed the problem you mentioned appeared in AutoCAD (2014, 2015) which is running on Yosemite:
Two finger panning with Trakpad only possible in combination with Option (Alt) key and without holding Option key it Zoom instead of panning. The two finger gesture now reversed for Zoom and Pan in AutoCAD on Yosemite.
AFAIK it is knowing issue and it should be resolved in upcoming updates.

I'm having the exact same problem and it's making the program very difficult to use since I'm so used to my gestures.

I know, it was such a mistake to install Yosemite in my Mac, now I can't use AutoCad naturally, I doesn't feel natural to use the program this way. Hope they rosolve it soon.

I have the same exact problem:
- 2 finger draggin = zoom in or out
- hold option + 2 finger draggin = pan
It was totally the other way around.

Is this a true mistake? anyone who has made it surely isn't an user.
Hope they fix it soon, I need to continue to work on autocad on proper ways.

Anyone knows when this pan/zoom problem will be solved?

 

This is a Yosemit or an Autocad update?

 

Thanks.

I'm also having this problem after updating to Yosemite.
I assume no one's been able to fix it yet but you can also 
AutoCad> Preferences> General and check to box that says something like "space bar hold to pan" or something like that.
It's easier than using the alt key since you can hold space bar and pan with just one finger. That way you only have yo use one hand instead of both.
I do hope this issue gets fixed soon though.

AUTOCAD 2015 already has a Updated to fix this problem.

If you have downloaded the autocad 2015 on your YOSEMITE It will itself look for an update and show you the link to download and here is the Read Me showing you how you can succesfully download the update to autocad with no further problems.

Finally the problem was fixed.
