Weird mirroring whilst using text editor in AutoCAD 2008

Post by JLSmith »

Has anyone else had this or similar error?

Using Spacepilot with latest drivers in AutoCAD 2008, and whilst in the text editor I (accidently!) moved the 3dmouse only to have all my drawing get mirrored and moved a random distance away from its original position. It also affects all layout pages at the same time in similar way.

When I then finish with the text editior, all the now 'mirrored' entities are 'selectable' in their new position, as if they had been physically mirrored and moved within AutoCAD!

More peculiar is when I save the drawing as a copy, then reopen it everything reverts back to its proper original position.

A bit of a puzzle, I now am staying well away from the spacepilot whilst editing text in AutoCAD. :roll:
