Hi all,
I am using Autocad 2016.
I am having a problem whilst drawing a line or polyline with orthomode on. I start the line, and while dragging up, down or sideways, the line doesnt stay along the ortho track rather it flicks to where the cursor is crossing snap points. If I stop the cursor on a snap point, the line reverts back to orthomode. This wouldnt be so much of a problem if there weren't a lot of objects in the drawing, which is causing a constant flicker/jumping of the line. I dont necessarily need the final line to be ortho, and if I click a snap point the line is drawn to that point, regardless if it is on the orthogonal lines. I also dont mind the cursor jumping to snap points, thanks to the magnet. I just don't want the actual line jumping to each and every snap point i pass across.
I am hoping it is some sort of variable that I just cant find, because in Acad 2010 I never had this problem. I have tried a few of the solutions of a "flickering cursor", such hardware accerlation on/off, dynmode 0, selection cycling etc etc and they didnt make a difference. I suppose that makes sense, because I dont think this is a graphics/slow machine problem....
Thanks in advance and sorry if I havent been entirely clear. Its a little hard to explain, so if thats the case, I can look into posting a Screencast....
