Problems encountered while learning *pdmax 3
Thread Content
When performing movement operations in pdmax, extra graphics often appear; even if you hide all the graphics, some of them still remain in the drawing area. I’ve come to the conclusion that it might be related to the operations performed; if you use CAD’s move function or other similar operations, the graphic will be moved to another location, but the database won’t change, which results in an extra graphic appearing. But I’m not sure if this is correct I hope someone with more experience can explain what caused such an outcome and how to avoid it!
pdmax is not CAD; it was sent to the wrong place!
I’m sorry! I couldn’t find the pdmax area; I thought the two were quite close to each other, so I posted it here. Please forgive me for any inconvenience this may cause!
May I ask how the original poster resolved the issue? I’m also facing this problem right now! Moreover, this issue occurs without using CAD commands; sometimes it happens even when using the drag and move functions built into PDMax. Even making a mistake while working on the piping can result in all pipes not being selectable, and they simply turn into solids in CAD
Your understanding is correct; pdmax relies on the coordinates in the database for positioning, and operations in the CAD interface merely change the current graphic!
