tjb384 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I have acad 2011 LT very rarely I come across a file that makes acad crash when I try to edit any text. I attached one of the files that does it. anybody know why? Thanks, Tom T-2435-07-0630_4_CONVERTED.DWG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) Beats me. It doesn't show me anything wrong, other than it is ALL simple single line text and it is 2004 format. The first three times i opened it and tried to edit the text, I had to open task manager to kill AutoCad. My program, 2015 LT isn't crashing, it just freezes up like a rock, and does not come back. The fourth time, it let me edit ANY of the text, the fifth time it froze again. I ran Audit, & -purge, then I WBLOCK'ed it out. Same result on that copy too. Audit found 4 errors and fixed three of them. It didn't tell me what the errors were nor what was not fixed. You do know, this drawing has 3D objects in it, right. Solids(may be 2D), Traces, and stuff. I wonder if that has something to do with why LT is having a hard time with the text, Edited June 10, 2014 by Dana W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pendean Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 No issues with your file here: AUDIT found three errors but I can edit your text in LT2011/LT2012/LT2013/LT2014/LT2015 just fine. T-2435-07-0630_4_CONVERTED.DWG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 You can return all entities to a Z of 0'-0" using the CHANGE command and the Elevation option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Maybe it's a system resources thing. I'm running 2015 LT trial version on an on board graphics card so the program is barely chugging along anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 You can return all entities to a Z of 0'-0" using the CHANGE command and the Elevation option.Yeah, that I forgot to mention. There are some objects not on the x/y plane. They have minor non zero Z axis values. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 After moving everything to a Z of 0'-0" I could change any text I clicked on and AutoCAD would not lock up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I guess we're narrowing it down. LT must have issues with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pendean Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Not sure, since I could do it without that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukecad Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 The OP asked the same question over at Cadeverything.com We gave the same advice- to flatten everything back to Z=0. As he hasn't come back either here or there I guess it must have worked for him. Would be nice to get some feedback or a thanks though.

Dana W Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Or they have no idea Flatten is a command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukecad Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 No, we gave him the various ways to do it, using flatten and change commands, using the properties, and even the old trick of moving everything into hyperspace on the z ordinate (0,0,1e99) and back, so he should have been able to use one of them.
