katts333 Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Everytime I try to insert a block, the OSNAPS temporarily turns off. What setting do I need to change to make this stop happening? Most of what I do is insert blocks and I would like the osnap to stay engaged and the polar tracking but I lose them when I try to insert a block. I am sure it is something simple but haven't stumbled upon it yet!!! Thanks a million to anyone who can help! Quote
ReMark Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Does this happen with all blocks you try to insert or just certain ones? Quote
katts333 Posted October 9, 2010 Author Posted October 9, 2010 They are Project Matrix symbols -- if I use a block I have designed, it doesn't happen. I can insert it but I have it set to let me pick the rotation (systems furniture symbols so I need this ability) and as soon as I get the rotation dialogue, the osnap is turned off. Quote
ReMark Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 Could it be that for whatever reason the Project Matrix symbol insertion routine temporarily disables Osnaps? Quote
katts333 Posted October 10, 2010 Author Posted October 10, 2010 I finally came to that conclusion and since I was not prepared to monkey with their LISP routines and I couldn't see anything on their site FAQ I checked for a recent update to their program and lo and behold there were updates for both the catalogue program and the symbol program and once I downloaded and installed those most of my issues went away. I couldn't have been the only person with that issue and I was blaming on ACAD 2010 but it was them. Thanks for asking! Anyone else out there that designs with Project Matrix check for updates. Quote
