Last week, I showed you how to optimize your system to get the most out of AutoCAD 2017\u2019s gorgeous graphics update<\/a>, and this week I want to show you what you get for your non-troublesome trouble. Are you ready? OK, hold on tight!<\/p>\n

Appearance and Selection<\/h2>\n

Remember how in past releases previewed objects (while they\u2019re being created, moved, or copied) often appeared jagged? Well, not anymore! Like ice, jazz, and the nose of an airplane, previewed objects are now smoooooooooooth<\/em>.<\/p>\n

And those lines with \u201cdot\u201d linetypes that were often difficult to see\u2026 even when you changed the lineweight? They printed correctly, but just didn\u2019t display quite right. Now you can actually see them in AutoCAD 2017! Yes, even without a magnifying glass.<\/p>\n

\"Improved<\/p>\n

S-O-S? More like N-O-P-E. Linetypes with dash and dot combinations now display round dots (no more very short dashes!) After all, dots ARE round (and we\u2019d like to see them that way!)<\/p>\n

\"Improved<\/p>\n

Snapping to Gaps<\/h2>\n

Have you ever tried to snap to a gap on an object with a dashed or dotted linetype? No can do, right? Actually, yes can do! Now object snaps recognize gaps, allowing you to select or snap to objects even when picking on a blank space!<\/p>\n

\"Improved<\/p>\n

FYI: <\/strong>The system variable LTGAPSELECTION must be ON to get this new behavior!<\/p>\n

Parallel Hatch Lines<\/h2>\n

OK, I\u2019ll stop joking for a second because this is a really subtle \u2013 but important \u2013 graphical update: In AutoCAD 2017, when you are zoomed out closely spaced parallel hatch lines have more consistent line spacing so you won\u2019t question if you\u2019ve hatched correctly!<\/p>\n

\"Improved<\/p>\n

Seriously, in general, I think you\u2019ll find that 2D and 3D performance is improved in AutoCAD 2017. Pan and Zoom operations are faster, and orbiting large 3D models with visual styles no longer results in adaptive degradation. Plus, if you\u2019ve ever worked with models with a large number of small blocks containing edges and facets, I\u2019m pretty sure you\u2019ll be pleasantly surprised at the improved performance.<\/p>\n
