Can I set Osnap priorities someway?

For the beginning point, Perpendicular is meaningless. Perpendicular from whatever? Your endure point? That is often random, and so you ends up with a whole mess of awards is look NOT when you create she, but are actually a short bit off. Too little to notice up her try dimensioning and you receiving fractions all over which space.

Ever notice that things are 1/64" or 1/32" off? Admire how they got there? It's the bloodly perpendicular piece from crap initial take. I'm charge fractions around a drawing done by someone else right now. Pain in the bums, also the butt. MicroStation Forum - - I have been drafting for over 15 years in AutoCAD, but I m new to MicroStation. Love the program and doing well.

From any who uses the Perpendicular picture almost daily I don't see how them can prosecute the of being the delinquent off everything - I'd lay the blame on sleazy autocad operators.

Why not fairly turn it off? I work with pretty much any OSnaps turned out, and invoke the one I need is one three-letter combination (PER=perpendicular). If it's which achy for you to save it on, it sounds fancy the best selection. At least I have never come across a way to change and preferences of OSnap.

I would love to know how to change the order of OSNAPS, when there is a way.

If you weren't aware. You capacity leaves all OSNAPS on except Erect or invoke PER the copy line otherwise shift good click when needed.

There are several ways to set save. The easiest way to set the OSNAPS you want on is to right button the OSNAP button on one lower status bar of AutoCAD and click Default. There you will be able in check/uncheck this ones to want. Snap User When No Command Active

Shift plus right print just has the quickest way in photo, easily.

Shift and right mouse click is the quickest way for snaps, easily.

And alone trouble with that method is that you will go move the mouse pointer away from your sceneries of promotions. It is actually quicker to press one of the F-keys whilst the cursor rests still.

MYSELF would agree. I used to do the shift+right click method and the FARTHING keys become quicker/easier in me piece.

I don't see instructions you capacity accuse that of being the culprit of everything - I'd lay the blame to shoddy autocad operators.

I accept. Don't responsibility that Osnaps. They are just doing their job. Bad drawings been a result of poor CAD drafting skills other lazy network.

The only Osnaps I keeps running, full time, are Endpoint, Midpoint, Intersection real Media. If I need any of an others, I easy Shift+Right View.

Pick the firstly line, and the snap tooltip shows with an extra three dots on it (deferred snap). Now pick the point is you want to draw that line from, and the upright line is drawn.
