danglar Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi folks. I received some drawings created in Revit and converted to regular DWG file and something strange happened when I invoke NCOPY function from Express tools set: I don't see any copied object and nested object not highlighted (see attached etransmit to check it). Actually NCOPY not working at all on these files and in a same time working properly on rest files, created in Autocad I use acad2013 64bit I checked it on above versions and return the same issue Probably somebody knows the reason for this issue? iregular-NCOPY-07.03.17-15.581.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jef! Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi Danglar! NCopy works fine, when you use it, the preview and items appear at this position: Delta X = 6494.17, Delta Y = -27461.49. You can fix your issue by going into the mivne dwg, and launch the command insbase Command: INSBASEEnter new value for INSBASE put it back to 0,0,0. It is one of these time that we can wonder why on earth ADesk reinvent things like that. insbase messes up things when inserting, wblock, ans aparently ncopy as well... and I never understood how that thing can actually be useful. But, that is another story. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danglar Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 Hi Jef! Thank you for your brilliant solution. Now (after setting INSBASE 0,0,0) allworking fine. I understand in Revit not really nesecary to set insbase to 0,0,0what why in almost all drawings converted from Revit I see different INSBASE,but now I can handle it well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
