We have recently installed ACAD 2010, and are experiencing serious performance problems with our computers. Apparently the program puts a major drag on the machines. We are using pretty good machines. Is this normal? Are there any way to improve performance? It's really standing in the way of...
Lothar,
thanks a lot. You're really knowledgeable, I think over the years you've been the one to answer most of my questions. Glad you're out there!
Thanks again,

Hi,
I'm running 2006. Some time back I downloaded and added a hatch to my .pat file, which works fine. I now want to share it with someone here at work, and I can't figure out how. I think I added the hatch when we were still running 2002, and it was imported from my old settings when we started...
Can someone please explain/shed light on how to control the size of the breakline symbol available through express tools? I'm aware of the options available via the command prompt, size, extension, etc. But the overall size of the symbol seems to always change. In one drawing a size of 1/128th...
Hi,
I have a block with attributes that I use for room name and number when drawing architectural plans. Usually I insert the block, and I get prompted to enter the name, number, etc. in the command line. There are 3 attributes.
All of the sudden, when I insert this block into drawings, nothing...

Thanks again,

We're working ona drawing that, when we make new viewports, cannot be scaled; when you click in model space (from layout) it always reverts to extents.
What's happening? Any Help appreciated.

Lothar,
Thanks for responding. Pretty funny, I guess you don't look at them as "european style hinges" in Europe.
Anyway, in the US this is the generic term for adustable concealed hinges as shown here: http://www.blum.com/group/en/index.jsp
Occasionally I have to show them in detail drawings...
Can anyone refer me to a site (manufacturer or otherwise) when I could download drawings for european style cabinet hinges? I've been searching the forum, but the usual references, (e.g. http://www.cben.net/) don't seem to have any.
Thanks,

Thanks CDH,
That is essentially the answer I was looking for. So I guess if you have 2 objects to array, and they don't happen to be on the 0 - 180 degree axis, you'd have to create a reference angle from 0 degrees in order to pick you angle on screen.
I always prefer to do that rather that type...
hi,
I'm trying to arrange some objects along an arch using a polar array. I think I need some fundamental clarification about the polar array dialog box.
1. I created an arc
2. I've arranged the first set of objects in position at the beginning of the arc, ready for copying along it.
3. I've put...
I finally happened onto the information I was looking for in my initial post, where is 2006 writing all the cui information to, where is the active .pgp file for 2006, so I can isolate a copy of these files to have in the event of a reinstall, or other calamity ( a given, for sure...)
On my...
