Paper Space Changes Model Space Coordinates

Paper Space Changes Model Space Coordinates

Anonymous
No aplicable

In short, when I open and copy my paperspace layout from one file, and paste it into the paperspace in my drawing file, the coordinates of my model space change a lot!

 

 

Our City has CAD tiles that map the city from a plan perspective. I have eight of these tiles in .dwg format. I copy and paste each one individually into a single AutoCAD drawing (I have also tried XRef-bind-insert). I than open my paperspace template, copy the layout of my paperspace, and paste it into my layout space of the drawing with all eight cad tiles. After I do this, I notice that the coordinates of my drawing have changed! The drawing is still in one piece, but instead of a coordinate being at 352016,5015064 the same point is now at -11583.656,10523.643. The numbers themselves don't matter, I'm just trying to get across how drastic AutoCad is changing my coordinates. The entire drawing is still one piece. Even Undo'ing all of my steps, it doesn't reverse the problem of the coodinate change.

 

Any idea why?

 

Thanks,

 

Tom

Plain default Copy/paste changes the basepoint to the lower left closest point, a better method would be to use COPYBASE and/or PASTEORIG commands instead if you want to not change anything.

And why not use ADCENTER or LAYOUT commands to import the Layouts from your template too?
