polar references

[giancarlo75]

recently passed to autocad microstation. in autocad when they place me on a start point line they appear to me dotted with the horizontal and vertical lines of reference on which to move, in order to align other points at the same point chosen. Is this possible in microstation? another thing is the polar references of autocad that I can have in steps of angles that I decide (for example every 45 degrees or every 30). in microstation how do you do it?

I think I know what you mean... So if I remember in micro it is under the settings menu > snaps and then you should pull out the button bar, at least I remember like this

for your other point, to have 30, 45 degrees and so on....... I'm sure you can do this, but at the moment I don't remember how.
However if you can help know that the latest versions of micro support autocad commands (at least in part).

read: http://cad-notes.com/2010/05/using-autocad-command-in-microstation/micro uses by default only icons, the key-in bar you have to pull it out you and you have to (obviously) know that it exists, regarding the autocad commands and their equivalence, in micro just go on the online micro guide (for years) and look for cascade:
- autocad
- autocad transition interface
- autocad transition
and then you have

♪
common procedures for upgrading successfully
conceptual differences
microstation equivalents for autocad commands
microstation equivalents for autocad terms

The last 2 tell you how to micro-something you were doing in cad

in the link I put you it says (if I don't remember bad) that you can set the autocad pgp even on micro so as to give the keyboard commands, or something like that.
but I now autocad use it as autocad and microstation I use it as microstation, and therefore.

I point out that car does not have such a thing, and in my opinion the casino is only when you jump from one to another often, as happens sometimes in my case.
So when you go from car to micro and you want to zoom in snaps z and t'inc....zi because nothing happens, then you know you get 10 min. after you're screwed because you want to zoom on your car and don't find the corresponding icon.

Hi.
in ms, accudraw does the task, when you approach the axes, you will see that the line becomes "fatetto" highlighting the direction, you can also press sending to block the axis, when you press forward, the axis that stops is the "close" one to your direction.

with the space bar you can switch from the coordinates to polar and vice versa, the symbol of the accudraw passes from square to circular.

for your second question, you have to go to settings--> design file ----> axis and set the axis locking and the increment of the angle.

You will see that with accudraw you will never have any problem in 2d and 3d, it is really spectacular.

jancarlo75, with the first question, seeks something similar to the object snap tracking of autocad, which is not exactly what makes accudraw for what I remember.
At least I figured it out, did the latest versions of micro have it?
Hi.

Hello number one,
then, practically it has since 1995, with the release of ms 95 that we can do the required one, once you block the axis, moving with the mouse in the other elements, vertices, half-works, etc. ms indicates the alignments.
when I show the potential of accudraw to other professionals who come from different software, they all remain "open mouth" and in courses, when I explain two basic things of accudraw, the point of attempt and the "o" button, often known that so many people who have used ms for years, did not know it...!!!

Hello everyone

micro accudraw is definitely a powerful medium, however............ However, even if the last versions I only barely saw them.
I could also say big cabbages from the 8th onwards, well given this I started with version 5, which (I don't want to miss) was in 1995.
And I don't remember that at the time accudraw was so cool.
to find the intersection between 2 lines I had to click on the tentative first on one and then on the other.
i.e. he didn't recognize the automatic intersection.
I'm making a mistake?
I mean, I'm making a figure of...
Hi.

p.s.
any micro version will now be about 3 years that I do not open + a dgn.

By the way, I didn't resist curiosity and went on a car where there's micro, and.......
the story of the "or"
:to have known before.

 

[mr.Bentley]

Hello number1,
in 1995 ms 95 came out, and it is precisely with this version that the accudraw was introduced, I started with the 4, I still remember the insertion of the points by coordinates :-(((

with the latest versions, it was added in the snap mode i: multi-snap1, multi-snap2, multi-snap3,
You're right, first the intersection was like you say, but it was really a moment to do it.

So you, all the news from v8i didn't see them? Don't you work with ms anymore?

Hi.

ps: but without the change of origin with the "o", how did you draw?

 

[numero1]

8 (all 8) I walked past me without you taking them.
I saw them a little on the pcs where they were installed, and that version is very + beautiful ok, but I didn't get to go deeper.
I stopped at 7. Something...... and it was about three years ago.
And so I don't currently work with micro, internal needs, I go a little here and a little boating me between car and micro and their application.
if you read under my nickname, see what I use.
As regards the command (or)
Who remembers me?
Hi.

Sorry I'm late in the answer. I had solved these two questions after reading your answers (for which I thank you). Now for what I was looking for micro is a little different from autocad. Basically if you want to see the dotted line appear just place with the pointer on any point and then press x or y depending on what you want. micro blocks the slide along that axis and shows the dotted line I said. if you want to start placing a line with the same coordinate x of another line (but not the same y, or vice versa) the process is more complex. you need to place at the end of the existing line, use the attempt point and then press or place the accudraw on that point. the new line has not yet been traced but the accudraw appears and guides along the axes to align the first point of the new line to the existing one.
