Change your PICKFIRST variable to 1.

[hosyn 10]

I tried but it isn't ok still

[Cad64 97]

So PICKFIRST is set to 1, you select an object, you hit Ctrl+C and then you hit Ctrl+V but nothing happens?

 

Does this happen in all drawings or just one?

Have you tried running an Audit on your drawing to check for errors?

Have you tried closing Autocad and restarting it?

[hosyn 10]

yes I tried in word and excell and .. ok but in cad have problem ,,,I cheked the variable to 1 and its ok for any command except ctrl-c

[Cad64 97]

What about my other questions?

 

1. Does this happen in all drawings or just one?

2. Have you tried running an Audit on your drawing to check for errors?

3. Have you tried closing Autocad and restarting it?

 

It might also be helpful to know what it is that you are trying to copy and paste, and, are you trying to copy and paste from one location to another inside this one drawing, or, are you trying to copy from one drawing and paste into another?

 

The more information you provide, the better your chances of getting the problem solved.

 

I have to step out for a while, but hopefully someone else will be along to pick up where I left off.

 

Good luck.

I tried tree suggestion check in and still not ok

can it coused by virus?

[Cad64 97]

Why would you think you have a virus just because copy/paste isn't working in Autocad?

With or without the aid of a crystal ball? Just curious.

When you say "Window" I assume you mean Viewport?

What do you mean by "result always different"? What happens when you paste into the viewport?

 

By your description, it sounds like copy & paste is working, it's just not working the way you want it to. So what's different about the viewports you're copying from and pasting into?

Are all layers turned on? If not, what layer do you have set current? Is it frozen in the viewport?

What are you copying? Is it a block or a collection of entities?

Are you copying and pasting within a drawing or are you copying from one drawing and pasting into another drawing?

Have you run an AUDIT on your drawing, or drawings, to fix any errors?

 

The more information you provide, the better your chances of getting an answer that solves your problem.

Pick object press right button mouse and you have 2 options copy or copy with a base point a little more reliable.

I Have sometimes this isuue with some drawings.. usually saving in dxf format, opening it and copying from there (or after saving again in dwg) was helping.. Once I had problem when that was not enough. It was an export to cad from some asian structural program.. when trying to open after saving to dxf it was crushing cad. What helped was: first opening the drawing with RECOVER command which fixed 4 errors, then saving it do dxf, then opening and saving back to dwg (cos I don't want to open it from dxf every next time),.. and was working..
