ShadabKhan Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 My Client save AutoCAD 2012 file into AutoCAD 2002. Now he is facing a problem that whenever he is working on that file some commands in AutoCAD 2007 like Extend and Trim is not working on existing lines and X-ref lines. and when i open that file into AutoCAD 2012 and 2013 then all commands are working. when he create new line and try to use these commands then all commands are working but when he try these commands on existing lines and X-ref then commands are not working. Kindly guide me what is the solution for that. i have already save as that file into higher version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Most often AutoCAD will tell you what is wrong - when he tries the commands that doesn't work, what does it say on the commandline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 what does it say when he clicks the line that he's trying to extend/trim? Like "cannot EXTEND that object" or "Objects are not co-planar" or something? Or does it really just say nothing? Do the lines actually intersect? If not, it could be the variable EDGEMODE that have changed, try set it to 1. Lines in an X-ref can't be trimmed/extended at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In X-Ref extend command can use. i am using right not but trim can not be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 yes, you have said that. And I am still wondering what it actually says on the commandline. I'll even give you a picture of what I mean. [ATTACH=CONFIG]36844[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Client did not set Z to 0 of X-Ref and many of Objects. so i used Flatten command to that objects and X-ref files. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I am not getting the attachment The attachment is no longer valid. Let's move on. What is the exact nature of your problem? Look at your command line. What message is AutoCAD giving you? Ex. - Path does not intersect with the bounding edge. Please provide as much detail as possible. Thank you.

ReMark Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It's deja' vue all over again. Look at your command line? What message is AutoCAD giving you? Also, just like the OP who started this thread, are you too utilizing xrefs? What is EDGEMODE set to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anuphdas Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 When I select trim, command line says: Select cutting edges ... And when I selected line says: Select objects or : Specify opposite corner: 6 found But nothing done.... the things become freeze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anuphdas Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 But I don't know what is EDGEMODE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 "...things become freeze" Are you saying that AutoCAD freezes at that point?Does this happen in any drawing you work on or just one particular drawing? When did this first start happening? Do you have problems with any other commands? Are xrefs being used? Please attach a copy of the drawing to your next post. EDGEMODE is a system variable. Type it at the command line then press the Enter key and report back the value. Mine is set to "0" at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 To attach a drawing start by clicking on the Go Advanced button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 So, after you select the cutting edges, you need to hit enter. Then you are prompted to select the objects that you want to extend or trim. I this what you are doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
