Yes I was aware of those commands, but you know what it is like when you hit enter then suddenly think 'arse' wrong command.
 
 Thanks

You could also use any of the following to produce a 2D view:

SectionPlane
SolfProf
SolDraw/SolView
ViewBase

But I suppose you knew that already right?

Yes, but I open another copy of autocad and just let it run in the background, and instead of 'flatten' I 'flatshot'ed.

I've crashed my computer using AutoCAD but I have never had the program decide on its own to turn off the auto save feature.

So did you ultimately flatten that piece of furniture or not?

Hi All,
 
 Just wondered if anybody else has experienced the following:
 
 I am trying to flatten a bit of 3D furniture to insert it as a block onto an exhibition stand and AutoCAD grey screens out and I have to crash out of it after a while as it is obviously not going to recover form not flattening. I have more than one drawing open when I crash out.
  Upon re-starting a-cad gives me a window telling me it crashed and opens recovery manager. I now discover that AutoCAD in it's infinite wisdom has decided to turn of my auto back-ups four days ago so none of the drawings I had open (or had open up to four days ago ) has been backed up.
 
 Not sure why is takes it upon itself to make these changes to my system but would love to know.
 
 NOTE TO USERS; if your machine crashes you should check your auto back-up straight away to ensure it is still on..
