dpolizzi81 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Hi all, Just wondering if there's anyone out there who's had this problem? From time to time, when either moving text with a grip, or placing a dimension, or drawing a line or whatever, AutoCAD just randomly decides to snap to zero, zero. I might be miles away from zero, zero, but it still snap me there. The only way I can get around it is to turn my OSNAP off, do what I have to do and then turn it back on again. REALLY annoying. I'm using ACAD 2008, but I remember having this problem on earlier releases too. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I sometimes get this when I have the INSERT snap running. Some blocks are badly created and have their insert set at 0,0 rather than on one of their graphical elements and these can throw you to 0,0 .

dpolizzi81 Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 Nice 1! That's exactly what it was. All of my x-ref are inserted at 0,0, so it must always snap to the insertion point of those. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 yes, XREFs would probably do it too. I don't use them very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
