When I use the copy command in Draftsight 2018, it copies all the entities to the active layer. I know there is an option to turn this on and off but whether I have it on or off, it still does this.
Thanks!

When a file is put into a certain state, is there any way to flag it another colour? For example, we have an Obsolete state that is not visible to any department except for Engineering. For an Engineering user though, we'd like these files to be obviously visible that they're in an Obsolete...
That's what I thought too and I've changed that location but it still doesn't work.
I've now discovered that I can right-click and open a suppressed faster, keep it open, go back to the assembly and unsuppress the fastener. Not the ideal way since each unique fastener type has been done...
Due to a restructuring process from our IT department, our Toolbox library was moved to a new folder on or shared network. Sames drive just a different folder. I expected all Toolbox components to show as suppressed when opening an older assembly file but I'm not able to unsuppress and select...
Yeah that's what I figured. I think exporting the text into an Excel spreadsheet using a LISP routine is going to be our best option.
Thanks for the answer JNieman.

We are currently using AutoCAD 2004 as our 2D software. Our BOMs are just pieces of "dtext" for the different attributes (Material/Quantity/Description) within a grid of lines to represent a table all within the AutoCAD drawing. (Hopefully that wasn't a confusing description. I can provide an...
Thanks for the input.
shaggyco07: I understand the two x's. My issue is when I click on the bottom x, it closes AutoCAD completely.
TodPapillion: I've tried switching back and forth between these options too with no luck.
I think I'm going to try the old "reinstall" and see if there was some...
IFRs, yes that seems to behave normally too. Maybe I'll just get in the habit of using that command rather than clicking the X with my mouse.

Follow up: typing the command "close" doesn't produce this issue at all. Weird

I'm having an issue closing just one drawing/window at a time. When I close my current drawing AutoCAD attempts to close ALL open drawings in AutoCAD. It will bring up the "Save Changes.." dialogue box if there is a change or just close it without warning if there isn't a change. Then it will...
Perfect, don't know why I didn't think of that. Too much work lately.

Hello,
Is there a way to create a feature (in this case a set of holes using Hole Wizard) that is done at the "assembled" level of a weldment. My example is that I've got two "legs" on one side of my design that are wide flanges and show up as one item in the cut list. I want to drill a few...
Oops I meant to say that we are making a new part and will drill and tap this hole new. Sorry 'bout that.
