Autocad LT 2008 tips - Thinning effects visual, to improve the grip of the snap.

work, I noticed that despite a very powerful pc and kept in good working order (I always do the defrag it? No? Then go download it now and let it run at least once a week: JKDefrag ) some visualizations of AutoCAD, especially tables with very complex and rich in elements of heavy and very slow work.

I refer in particular to the effects of selection objects, their thickening and hatch when you hover over (not that I say hell with many xrefs loaded) and to the bounding boxes, very nice to see but very unnecessary.

To relieve some 'graphics (essential and' nice) you can go to the menu 'Select: Tools -> Options -> Selection

Here, I take it off directly in you both to check " Preview selection "



visual effects and settings, remove the check from" Indicates selected area "

However, if you're in the mood to use some 'of these beautiful colored lights, I recommend you use either stretch or thicken and not both and not left out of the selection (you can find it by pressing the setup button) tables, xrefs and locked objects.

Ok, we done this already 'well underway. When selecting your design will flash a little 'less with a lot of thanks for your video card.

Stay on topic selection, and other small straight 'to set to a "decent" Opening the variable that indicates the pixel size (1 to 50) of the viewfinder snap: the higher' its value and unless you get close with the center to snap the cursor to a select it, so it will be 'more' easy its selection.

This implies that in a richly detailed design will be 'easy to miss the selection!

So, unless you work with a dynamic input (I do not recommend it) and choose the desired snap with the tab (rather cumbersome), I think to speed up what you should set the aperture between 5 and 10 pixels (10 is the default value).

You can see the effect of setting this value to a variable APBOX.

So put APBOX = 1

select a command and any copies or moves the cursor will remain 'the pixel size as specified in OPEN

At this point there that the value is set to the size that most 'will remain comfortable for volstro working style. As I said before, I think the most 'fast remains to decrease the value to 5 or 10 pixels and zoom to work for the snap hook you want.
