Can't zoom in more than displayed

Greetings,

 

I have an issue with zooming into the drawing more than it is displayed (older Acad versions give "Already zoomed in as far as possible, Acad 2016 and newer just regenerate exact same position every time). 

 

Regen, Drawing Limits, moving UCS, setting new view - nothing helps and this prevents me from drawing a profile line.

 

I actually know where the issue comes from - we are using third party software for road design and so it happens that this particular profile gets drawn at ridiculous Y coordinate. It is a glitch on the programmers side and a fix is quite straight forward from their side - simply change the position where the profile view gets drawn, which should be far more close to coordinate system origin or by the plan view (not included in dwg that I have attached).

 

But in the meantime - if I could somehow persuade this DWG in the attachment to allow me to zoom in further, I would be super happy. Any suggestion is more than welcome, except for one - since the position is generated by this third party program, I cannot simply move the profile view closer to coordinate system origin. That would not help me as this program uses its own set of commands for drawing profile and it unfortunately expects the profile to be where it is designated by it.

 

So, thank you for any possible other advice.

Hi,

 

>> this particular profile gets drawn at ridiculous Y coordinate

You already found the reason. There is no way for any double precision based CAD system to work in that coordinate values (and assuming to see distances with the accuracy of 3 or more digits).

 

>> if I could somehow persuade this DWG in the attachment to allow me to zoom in further, I would be super happy

You might try to disable the hardware acceleration (command _GRAPHICSCONFIG) which might allow you to get a bit more close, but not very much.

 

One option worth to try:

Create a new drawing, use command _XREF to attach this defective one and move the XRef to a position so your geometry part of the XRef is close to 0,0,0.

So your 3rd party product can generate it's profile view in the high coordinates, but you can use your new dwg in a normal way without zoom-closer-conflicts :cara_guiñando_un_ojo:

Hello, thanks for your input Alfred. You have confirmed my thoughts.

 

I'll have a discussion with the third party software developer so that they can sort this out. In general, even their software comes to this critical situation only if you have more than 20 road alignments in the same DWG, which is pretty rare. But it obviously happens.

 

Thank you again.
