Not able to visual see trim/extend or match properties. Why?
Not able to visual see trim/extend or match properties. Why?
Installed and running ACADM 2004 dx for the first time today. Trying out some basic commands and have noticed that when I want to trim/extend or match properties, I am not able to see what I've done till the command is finished. Why is this happening? At first I tried to update the driver for my graphics card but it didn't help. I know this was a problem in 2004 with match properties but i don't use that command much, but i use trim/extend constantly. Any help would be great.
I haven't run into the problem with trim/extend. I do see it with the match properties command, but not all the time. I usually just exit out of autocad and start over. Have you downloaded and installed service pack 2?
downloaded sp2, clicked to execute the command and a window pops up that says program not found on pc. i don't understand why you would need a service pack right away when a new version (dx) just came out. wouldn't the problems that the service packs take care of be addressed in the new version?
I'm having the same problem with the trim command and we have just upgraded to AutoCAD Mech DX 2004. Notice no one has responded to this issue since Nov. 2003. I was just wondering if anyone has come up with any fixes to this problem.
I belive I am having the same or similar problem. The only exception is that the trim/extend functions properly until I insert an object from "Power Pack". Then I loose the ability to see the trim/extend until I exit the command. I just installed service pack 3 and the problem still exists.
Just noticed something else... The problem happens after inserting an item from power pack with AM:Structure Enabled.
But once Enabled-Structure is turned on you can't turn it off? or can you?
Quick fix
In your base template you need to change the options in AM:Structure, uncheck the enable structure option. Once you do this the problem seems to go away when you insert structural componets. But you also loose the ability to use the support for structures. I will continue to operate AutoCAD this way and will post any issue's that may arise.
I've had Structure enabled and disabled, it didn't seem to make a difference. I also have all the SP's installed - same result. Then I heard: you screwed up your system by installing 2004 DX over 2004 and not uninstalling 2004 first and to use AutoCADs Regedit. However, that gives me an error message and I can't use it. Now it is: ----- reinstall every thing including XP. I am still chewing on that one.
Installed 2005 Mechanical and have the same problem. I can say, it seems to be file specific. The original file was fine until elements drawn in older versions were copied and pasted. If I open a new file snap and trim work correctly.
