cecilone Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Hi, Sorry this is a really basic issue. Maybe due to graphics setup. But I am struggling to find a solution. When drawing circles everything looks good initially. But when zoomed in the circle does not end where it should. When Smart dimensioned it doesnt line up with the size specified and ends up a tiny off. I would be grateful for a point in the right direction.

JD Mather Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This is an AutoCAD forum. The SolidWorks forum is futher down. Looks to me like you simply need to increase the resolution.

cecilone Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 It happens on every file. This is just a dimensioned circle, but on my system the dimension lines don't line up to the circle. Thanks circle.SLDPRT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Meaningless. Sounds like you are worried about graphics limitations, not geometry problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecilone Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 I believe it probably is a problem with graphics. But I know for a fact that it worked at one stage but now doesn't. The issue means that whenever a circle is used it cannot be connected to lines so cannot be extruded. Halting any work that I am trying to do. Apologies that this is such a trivial problem and thank you for trying to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't you attach a file that exhibits this behavior? If it is a graphics problem rather than a geometry problem it will still extrude. If it is a geometry problem then you are doing something wrong. Attach a file here that doesn't extrude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
