Successfully ^C & ^V of details from one drawing to another
Successfully ^C & ^V of details from one drawing to another
(OP)
Successfully ^C & ^V of details from one drawing to another-
especially when a detail has been drawn in model space, is dimensioned in P-Space, and may even have been projected from a model using soldraw.
The problem arises when the geom. picked up using ^C comes into the target drawing in another UCS and with another origin "height" than was expected. In 2002 I get about 60% predictability by assuring UCSFOLLOW is on and current UCS is set to "View" in both viewports in both drawings, but I get no consistency from this now that I'm using 2006.
BTW- I used to handle this using the ALIGN command, and typing in the target coordinate to realign the geom w/ the CURRENT ucs in the viewport, but this doesn't seem to work when I try it in 2006.
I'm sure I'm missing something. Any suggestions?

You can avoid all that by WBlocking in, and don't explode. You can't edit, of course, so make sure it is how you want it before you block in.

Iha-
Thanks, but I have had great success using copy-paste with ACAD r2004, and moderate success with earlier versions.
I'm looking into the possibility that CADWORKS (an add-on we're using here) may be interfering.
Others-
Is there anyone who has actually mastered this issue who might be able to respond?
Tks-
