AutoCAD LT 2002 - Unable to Offset inside Objects

[david_watters]

Hi, i am currently using AutoCad 2002LT. could anyone tell if there is a command to allow me to offset circles, rectangles etc inwards. I can offset outwards, but when i come to offset inwards it just won't let me......HELP!!!!!!

It could be your offset distance it too high... try offsetting just a fraction and see if that works

Thanks, i have tried that but for some reason it keeps throwing my offsets up to 0,0,0?!?!?!?

interesting... is this just in one drawing, or all the time?

on all drawings! there are others in the office using the same version of autocad, but can offset inwards, just seems to be mine that won't. must be something in the settings?!?!?!

You just have to be carefull where you pick.
Zoom in and make sure that you're not snapping to any osnaps (like "centre").
