Autocad copyclip problem6/29/2023 ![]() It's time for a sit down, face to face.Įdited by John Connor - 05.Feb. I'd talk to my boss and have him call the architect. If I got a drawing like this from an outside source their ears would be burning. I'm going to stop now before I drive myself crazy. ![]() I can copy and paste within your drawing but since it is so messed up I don't consider it to mean anything. Looks like someone flung them into outer space for no reason. Jeez, I just found some rooms actually show up on two different layers! And some objects on a layer are different colors meaning someone purposely overrode the assigned layer color.īTW.there are a handful of objects outside the perimeter of the building (to the top and to the right). I'd call the architect and tell him to clean the whole mess up because it is a nightmare to work with as it stands now. Maybe they were and somebody exploded them? In some rooms fixtures like bathtubs and sinks are blocks but in other rooms they aren't. Check on all the rooms there are on layer "0". Whole rooms can be a single block or just a series of lines, polylines and arcs. Isolating the Insulation layer one would expect to see the batt insulation on the layer but except for a few lines there is no insulation to be seen. The drawing is a complete and utter mess. Why does the drawing use an imperial template (decimal inches) but block insertion units are millimeters?Įdited by John Connor - 05.Feb.2014 at 21:32 This has to be one of the more messed up drawings I've encountered in a while. It also found six other database errors that fortunately could be fixed. I ran an audit on your drawing and it found several blocks with errors that could not be fixed. Who created the drawing and what program did they use? Was it Microstation by any chance? ![]() Your drawing has over 16,000 duplicate objects and almost 7,000 overlapping objects. How large is your hard drive? How much free space is left on it? Apply the FILETAB and FILETABCLOSE commands to enable the display of the open drawing file tabs above the Graphic window. How much RAM is installed in your computer? Apply the MOVE, COPY, COPYCLIP, PASTECLIP, and COPYBASE commands to move and copy objects in the current drawing plus copy objects from one drawing to another. All those objects add to the drawing file size. Why isn't the hanger a block? I'm sure I could find many more examples of the same thing. For example, one hanger consists of 38 objects. Your drawing is not very efficient either. when you change the Z angle on the UCS, anything drawn on that plane is no longer at Z=0 when you change back.Your drawing contains a large number of dense hatches and in trying to save the drawing you may actually run out of memory. THe drawing elevation is usually Zero, but not always. when you change the UCS, you've just ensured that any error will be magnified because the Z is not the SAME 0, it was selected from a ZERO PLANE, not the zero point. it's using the relationship to Z=0, and that might not be where you think it is. How you guys predict it without selecting the point is beyond me. Then view from several angles using 3dorbit to see if that line is doing what you expected it to do. Before running the copyclip, use the line command to draw a line from 0,0,0 to wherever you think your basepoint will be. If you change USC between copy and paste, be aware that your Z-layer plane is only the same at a single point (or ray) if it's different at all. upon changing the ucs, your copyclip may not be using the basepoint you think it is. Now rotate the image and see if it is really using that point as the basepoint, or if the distance from Z is maintained. Next draw a simple horizontal line, and Then use copyclip to paste the object to the end of that line. Upon changing the ucs, your copyclip may not be using the basepoint you think it is.
