lofty Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Not sure how this happened but I was trying to rotate a drawing in a viewport using mvsetup which worked, but now I am unable to delete lines etc using the delete and backspace key!!!! Not sure why it has suddenly started doing this. The delete and backspace keys work in other software programmes so it seems like it's just in Autocad! I can delete using the Delete icon in the toolbar but that's a pain as I use both hands to operate Autocad. Anyone got any suggestions of how I can get it back to normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Try changing PICKFIRST to 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lofty Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 Great thanks That worked. It's a bit weird why it set itself to 0 variable even though I didn't touch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Maybe you used a lisp routine that did not clean up after itself by resetting variables it had changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lofty Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 It was definitely the PICKFIRST variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I know that MVSetup changes OSNAP settings for me, perhaps it changes other things, and if you exit out of the command in "wrong" way, stuff don't reset...anyway, glad it's sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
