HELP!!! When I am in a command or drawing a line, and I right click for my osnap and select an osnap, the line stretches to a point outside of my drawing. in the command prompt it says: specify second point or <use first point as displacement>... does anyone know how to change the default for the displacement????? HELP!!!!

I do not believe there is a default for that...the displacement is whatever you make it...and considering your last thread, id say post a pic/screen shot of wtf your trying to do.

From what you're describing, Annie, it's acting normal. Try Zooming out.

Thank you fro responding. The right click osnap is not working. it either cicks me out of the menu without completing the snap or it snaps to a location far from my drawing which i did not select. I have set all of the settings to the same as my previous version including the osnap settings, dynamic input, user preferences, drafting options. I have gone through them all to match my previous settings. i must be missing something. HELP!!! I cannot work without my right click ....

I believe there is a "base point" that it is snapping to immediately after the snap is clicked. Instead of waiting for my point (like when i want to use the "from" snap) it goes to a <base point>...

Exactly which snap are you trying to use? And what type of object are you trying to snap to?
Instead of using the right-click method, try manually typing the snap in. Is it acting the same way? Or does this method work? Read this tip: http://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/osnap-manual-overrides-tip7758 |

Did you also check Right-click settings?
From the menu: Tools>Options>user preferences>Right Click Customization

Nothing works to get my right click menu with osnap working. I tried looking in the right click customization and other settings. The regular typed osnaps do work and the osnap fixed settings works. I use the right click menu quite a bit. Does anyone know why it would not work????

Just curious, are you holding down the Shift Key when you right-click?
