???DROPGEOM???
« on: May 26, 2009, 05:39:28 AM »
hey guys,

I managed to move an object in model space without any command or grip. Belive me i just right clicked and held the button while the crosshairs were exactly on an object (rectangle). The crosshairs disappeared and a mousepointer with a small rectangle below appeared when i moved the object and dropped the object.

Got a command line text as "dropgeom". Just curious if this an autocad command or a bug??.I could not find any support on autocad help. Just don't laugh if you find the question silly as i am a structural engineer and not a software guy.

cheers  :ugly:

DROPGEOM is associated with Selecting and Dragging objects with the RIGHT mouse button depressed .. instead of the LEFT.
