Move command - "Do you really want to do this"

[sherflor]

When I use the move command and select the object and I move it, then Cad will ask if "Do you really want to do this". I say "y" ( its default is set to <N>) but CAD will not do "y" and puts my object back to its original location.

Any clues?

Message when moving or copying objects: Do you really want to do this?

Issue

When you move or copy objects that affect the boundary of a hatch, part of which is in an xref, the following message is displayed:


Do you really want to do this?

Solution

This is a precautionary message.


When you move the boundary for the hatch, whether the boundary is in the xref or in the parent drawing, the program must analyze all the objects in view and in the xref to find the hatch boundaries. The more objects that are in view, the longer this analysis takes. To avoid this message: do not move the boundaries after placing the hatch or do not use associative hatches.

Wouldn't the EXPERT variable help in this case?
