Glenspa Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I am an occasional user of AutoCAD. I have a received a drawing from a company where the cross hairs are at 45 degrees and I can only insert dimensions at 45 degrees. How do I change this please? I have tried PLAN > Enter > Enter . This rotated both the cross hair and the drawing 45 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenspa Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Thanks for your help but neither worked. SNAPANG is set to 0. If I add another value i.e. 45 degrees it rotates the cross hair but not 45 degrees?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_O'neill Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Can you post the file? Or email it to me if that doesn't work and I'll take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenspa Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 I think the drawing has Isometric turned on. I cannot find how to turn it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 What makes you think the drawing has Isometric turned on? Just the angle of the crosshairs? Test it. Press the F5 function key. Do the crosshairs change in any manner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenspa Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 I have just posted the drawing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Well if you did I can't seem to find it. Maybe I missed it somehow? Did you try the F5 test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
