Abrasive Posted August 21, 2022 Posted August 21, 2022 Still learning and have tried a few routines. I'm not sure if it applies but, recently the mouse is acting strange. When I copy then click or "rubber stamp" to a location the cursor jumps to an arbitrary position. The item being stamped is placed in the position I selected, The cursor just jumps afterwards. As soon as I move the cursor it returns to the correct/current location. Is it possible that of of the routines I've tried has altered a setting somewhere. It's more of an annoyance than anything, but would like it to be fixed. I saw a post about how lisp routine could possible change a registry value..... Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Quote
Tharwat Posted August 21, 2022 Posted August 21, 2022 You might have the Snap Mode on, if so then just press F9 to disable it. 1 Quote
Abrasive Posted August 21, 2022 Author Posted August 21, 2022 @Tharwat Just tried, no change. It doesn't feel like it's snapping, more jumping until I move the mouse. Quote

mhupp Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Also check under your mouse if their is lint or something moving around interfering with the laser. My coworkers like to put tape on the mouse for April fools. 2 Quote
Abrasive Posted August 22, 2022 Author Posted August 22, 2022 It only happens in cad, and only when I'm copying/rubber stamping feels like its a setting/value or variable. Each instance the "jump" is the same. Hit escape and initiate the tool again and the offset changes but stays at the new offset until I exit that tool. I might just have to live with it, but would like to know if I did something Quote
tombu Posted August 23, 2022 Posted August 23, 2022 As it's the only time it happens describe the process you use for "copying/rubber stamping". Are you using copyclip, copybase, copy, copy using grips, or a lisp routine? If it's a lisp routine post it and someone here should be able to solve your problem. Quote
Abrasive Posted August 23, 2022 Author Posted August 23, 2022 _COPY Is the command in the tool bar Quote
mhupp Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 Just had to fix a co workers pc make sure snaps is off F9 should toggle it on/off. This snaps your mouse to the points on the grid. Commands: Snap Grid 1 Quote
Abrasive Posted August 25, 2022 Author Posted August 25, 2022 Definitely not snaps or snap related. No lisp routines loaded it still happens... Only when pasting and same "direction", down and to the right. The item I'm pasting is pasted in the correct place but the cursor jumps down and right until I move the mouse. Quote
