You are very welcome Dennis.
F3 is my most used key in AutoCad. I also use F10 a ton! I dont know if you use polar tracking. But when you're rotation or moving objects in free space and dont want any tracking whatsoever, i always turn off polar using F10.
Have a nice day.

Hi Chris,

I Learned about that little F3 button this morning. I think my problems started when my cat walked on my keyboard.  I didn't know that you could turn Object Snap on & Off like that until I was going over all the Object snap settings.

Thanks,
Dennis

Just a hint as well.
If you have problems snapping to certain points that you dont want to snap to. You can always turn Osnap off quickly by pressing F3. Its a handy thing tool turning Osnap on and off quickly.

Hello Everyone,

I am having a problem with my Object Snap in Acad 2000.

I can go into Drafting settings and check the Object Snap Modes box I want but when I put the curser on the appropriate object it doesn't want to snap to it.
For example I will check the "Intersection" box then say "OK". Then when I go to an Intersection the curser is not picking it up. I have to go to the "Object Snap Toolbar" and select the Intersection. Is there something I'm missing? It has always worked in the past. This is annoying.

Regards,
Dennis


Check PICKFIRST command variable.
