Unable to edit lines after update! Anyone find a fix?

[Anonymous]

I can easily draw lines, but they're useless. I can't edit their length: no pop-up keypad (although it's enabled), no click on line to edit as before, no object attributes button at bottom of page! (iPad Pro).

I tried uninstalling the app, signing in and out and in, and nothing works.

Is there a way to restore these critical functions? Right now, ACAD mobile is completely unusable!

Thanks for any help you can provide!

I switched to Ipocket Draw. Under 20 euro for the full version, no subscription, has more features than Autocad Mobile and can export to .dwg.

Good fix! Unfortunately probably not for me:  iPocket Draw doesn't seem to work in imperial (feet-inches). They don't have any examples in their documentation showing a drawing with feet and inches, so it looks like it's really better in metric. Logical, since it's developed in France. If it did edit and dimension directly in feet/inches, I would consider getting it. Or if I move to France... on ne sait jamais...

The nice thing about ACAD (when it worked) was that you could draw and edit in feet-inches. A pretty critical feature, although I could set my laser to read out in inches and convert later - still, much more awkward.

I'm looking at other apps, too. What choice do I have? None. Thank you for that, Autodesk!

If Autodesk weren't so clueless, they would realize that when you disable purchased, working software you lose customers.  Considering that I only got 2 months of functional autocad out of my 12 month subscription, I'm furious. It's a given that autodesk won't do anything to make up for the months (years?) of lost productivity! Not their style.

I have all this issues above as well as dimensions are now locked into inch/decimal format. So disappointed by this worthless app. ArcSite is so much better, line types, dimensions are editable AND IT WORKS AS DESCRIBED 

one would think a company as well versed in computer aided drafting as Autodesk would release a product with basic functionality; certainly not the case with this POS.
Maybe it’s like similar paradigm  shifts in markets like wood to fiberglass manufacturing. Larger market leaders were slow to adapt new processes and did not realize their core demographic had shifted their modality and by the time they caught on, new or more agile companies had claimed their market. Autodesk needs to have their qa project team to read theses posts and take heed. Your core dedicated users ( me since r13) for instance are freely advising your users to use other software on your own support forum!! 
I have reached my end with this failed attempt to use this app in any capacity, I cancelled my subscription after re downloading yet another worthless revision with fewer options and reduced functionality 

lazy devolvement

send your project managers back to pmi school because they have forgot about 13 processes for quality assurance and pre release functionality testing. Refer to your table of ittos for basic guidance and do your effing jobs!!

I would so switch to ARCSite if it weren't so crazy expensive! It's really the best iPad CAD app out there, and I'd subscribe in a second if its cost were reasonably comparable to AutoCAD and others at about $50 per year. Even their gutted version (no dwg) is more than double at $120 / year! They probably could do a version with no photo markup or embedding, since I can do those in other apps and don't need them for CAD. That's not going to happen, alas - just read the ARCSite reviews about being too expensive and their responses.

I doubt Autodesk reads this forum for feedback. I think they put it here so we feel empowered even though nothing we say matters, or they would have restored the usable version until they got their stuff together.

I doubt Autodesk sees this as damaging their brand, but after this fiasco I'm done with their entire company. As far as using Autodesk again, they've proven that they'll put idiots in charge of an app who have no clue as to their users' needs (just read the last paragraph of the Developer Comments in the  app store reviews, where they basically admit they're clueless!). And worse, they won't admit they're wrong and restore a working version. Just more mocking gibberish about how great the app will be... someday... later... whenever... over the rainbow (as they shamelessly keep our subscription money).

They just did an update (December 10th or so, 2019). Why? It's just as broken as the previous version! Did anyone at AutoDesk lose their job over this? Probably not, and I bet they'll all get bonuses!

Too bad that Apple keeps posting year-old reviews at the top of the page, default sort order in their greedy effort to sell this POS! The reviews were accurate then, but no longer!

You're right about the only current solution. Everyone who found a fix jumped to a different app because THERE IS NO FIX (not yet, maybe never).

But we're still mad and posting because everyone who got screwed by this POS DESERVES A REFUND!

I agree on the pricing with arc. Glad I only did a on month subscription for auto cad. 
autodesk has been bleeding smaller offices and sole proprietors for a decade now and do not care. As long as major firms keep buying the bloated SAS frontline applications AD will not respond to us until it’s too late for them and somebody does build a better mousetrap for 1/2 the cost.
