Paste to Original Coordinates doesn't paste entities PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 15 November 2007

When copying with COPYBASE and attempting to paste using PASTEORIG, the copied entites do not appear.

This only appears to occur when using COPYBASE with PASTEORIG. Keep in mind that if you will be executing PASTORIG, then using COPYBASE to specify the entities will present a useless prompt for base point.

While its true that this can at least be interpreted as user error, the software should at least report the user error in a message box or at the command line.

Workarounds: Use COPYBASE with PASTECLIP. Use COPYCLIP with PASTEORIG.
First Appeared: AutoCAD 2006
Status as of 2008 SP1: Still reproducible.
Status as of 2009: (unknown - please email with any info)
