Get Rid of "Too Small On Screen" when moving something
I can understand not letting me DRAW a new object that is below a certain threshold. But WHY-OH-WHY do you make it so that I can't MOVE something a minute distance?
Because of this limitation, I usually end up moving my object well outside of the range and then move it to where I REALLY want it.
Thanks for your submission and votes on this idea! We are evaluating where this request falls into our roadmap and will provide an update when we have made a decision.
Another workaround: you can select object and use the arrow keys. The distance of the move is dependent on your zoom.
Not ideal, but a workaround. Still agree with the request - don't understand these limitations. If there's a legitimate reason, at least allow the rules to be suspended for us OCD folks... 🙂
The only (almost) legitimate reason I can think of is that the move method takes the distance and direction as arguments. But it needs to take 2 point coordinates (from PT and to PT) instead.
The term "method" is a technical term used in Object Oriented Programming.
The workarounds are okay but don't address when you are attempting to snap to a point only to be told that it it's too close to move. Especially frustrating when trying to close a loop like a fill pattern. Takes extra steps to move the item farther away just to be able to snap to the point.
The workarounds are not ok. The "move a short distance can't do it" is a bug. I worked at a 3D software company in support for 8 years. No way this is as expected. If I tried to respond on a public forum that an issue like this wasn't a bug I would have been shot down by my colleagues and the user/customers and rightly so. There is not one good reason that explains something like this. (modeling yes, moving no) We pay more than good money for these programs, AUTODESK. Please correct this bug. Or, if it is more to your liking, please provide a "turn off minute distance hampering feature" checkbox.
Sorry for the snarky text, but I have had enough of this error message.
This shouldn't even happen when modelling. Sometimes we need to model more complex shapes (like profiles) and we need the accuracy. Shifting from AutoCAD to Revit is a bummer in this respect. I want to be accurate in my model and I can't because of this, I need to modify shapes in order to be able to model certain elements.
