Snap keeps turning off after using Revision Cloud

Anonymous — Mon, 01 Oct 2018 18:28:53 GMT

I am using AutoCAD LT 2011. The snap keeps turning off and the snap setting is gone after I use the Revision Cloud. Is there a way to turn on the snap automatically after using the Revision Cloud and restore the setting so that I do not have to set the snap setting every time?

I've had that happen when I don't finish drawing the cloud... AutoCAD disables OSNAP during the command, so make sure you complete the command...

Thank you for the reply. However, I forgot to mention that I draw the cloud while holding down SHIFT, and the Snap still would not turn on even after I finish the command.

I suspect you need a newer version of LT if REVCLOUD turns off osnaps whenever you use it, I cannot reproduce the problem in LT2017 or newer here.

Since LT offers no end-user passive programming, you might consider creating a custom button to press that sets your default osnaps to what you prefer then press in when you need them back.
