trouble copying/pasting

Anonymous — Wed, 22 Sep 2021 13:51:29 GMT

Hello people,

I have a wee problem. I am using Autocad 2020 and I am having troubles copying and pasting. I have those bathymetry profile lines that can only be seen from the front plan (Z X). From the top (Y X) they just look like a straight line. I copy them from the front plan and then paste them on my other drawing where I drew my foundations on the top plan (Z X). Even though I copied them from the front plan, they appear like on the top plan on my foundation's drawing. Any tips on how to solve that?

@Anonymous ,

Welcome to the AutoCAD forum.

Use the "Copy with Base Point" with specify base point being 0,0 and paste it on your other drawing at 0,0.

Also consider this link:

If possible, provide the drawing or images of your situation.
