snapping problems

Anonymous · ‎10-27-2016

Our school has been using autodesk autocad for mac for a couple of years and have had no problems until this week.

My students are having trouble with snapping to a point and the lines seem to jump on them.

Any suggestions? Thanks, Scott

Hi Scott,

Can you illustrate somehow the issue?
What do you mean by "lines jump on them (points)"?

Which OS installed on their Macs?
Do they upgraded to a new macOS Sierra by chance?

When we snap lines to specific points, the lines don't end up exactly on that point. When magnified they are off a little.

If you are using object snap try to use REGEN command when you zoom in and you will see that it snaps correctly.
