Column location issue

Yes there seems to be an unaddressed issue with 2D Cad Blocks when an x or y origin offset is used with the symbol.

Maybe one of the symbol guru's could comment as I am not sure that we should need to monkey around with the cad block for a situation like this.

 

However in this particular situation it does not seem to be necessary to use the offset when the columns are manually placed. ?

For columns like this, I would typically place one in plan, locate it, then Copy/Paste in Place, and Point to Point to move into position, or select multiples, Copy/Paste, then Reflect About.

 

Yes I think that would be standard operating procedure for most users. It is possible that those tools are causing corruption as I have been experiencing items staying highlighted after using those tools.

The odd thing is there is one column that is correct and unaltered.

 

Did you find one in Robert's file other than the one he pointed out ?

cannot remember ever changing a symbol offset, on this or any other symbol.

 

From time to time I have found isolated instances of a mismatch between the 2D Block and the 3D symbol and have had to manually change the relationship of such symbols. I do not know if this applies to this post but I wanted to back up Chopsaw in as much as it has occurred in the past and does work in such cases.
