3D Navigation Tools
  • AutoCAD may become unstable after switching between a 3D Viewport to a 2D Viewport.
  • "Keep Scene Upright" in 3DConnexion Settings dialog cannot be changed.
  • Unknown command "SPACEMOUSEACTION" and device is not working when using 3DConnexion device.
3D Surface Modeling
  • AutoCAD may become unstable after using SAVEAS on some drawings that have been run through recover.
Annotation Scaling
  • MTEXT column width can collapse to zero when XREF is bound to the parent drawing.
  • Annotative MTEXT column width can collapse to zero when drawing is saved and reopened.
Array
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when using the ARRAYCLASSIC dialog with solid entities selected and clicking on the preview button.
  • On a 32bit Operating system using the ARRAYCLASSIC command preview with a large number of items selected, you may get a warning "Too many objects would be created."
  • On a 32bit Operating system using the ARRAYCLASSIC command you may encounter objects on locked layers being removed without a warning dialog.
  • Array blocks may not display when attached as an XREF.
ASM
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when drawings contain loft surface on different layers and saved to older drawing versions such as 2004.
Autoloader
  • The AutoCAD options paths may become shortened when the Inventor Fusion Plugin is installed.
  • Autoloader fails to load a modified CUIx file.
  • ACFusion.cuix keeps getting added back to AutoCAD even when unloaded.
Blocks
  • AutoCAD may take a long time when inserting an external block that contains a large number of layer filters.
  • Dynamic Blocks may not be updated when the Property Palette is visible.
  • AutoCAD may become unstable after changing the view during ARRAYCLASSIC or Hatch preview.
CUI (Customizable User Interface)

  • Context menus are different based on how you have loaded the Main and Enterprise menu.
DGN Support
  • DGN linetypes may display inconsistently.
  • Imported text of a dimension in a DGN file is not submitted to the dimension style.
Display Drivers

Draw2D
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when autosave runs with an attached PDF file that is an extremely small scale.
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when using commands that modify one of the dimensions with the cyclic dependency.
Export to Layout
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when using the EXPORTLAYOUT command.
External Reference (XREF)
  • DGN files become scaled by a factor of 1/12 after an xref bind.

Fields
  • Field for viewport scale is displayed as "Custom" on opening legacy files such as AutoCAD 2009.
Inquiry
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when grip editing a PLINE with the Properties Palette open.
Layouts
  • Error message appears in command line after renaming the layout tab when sheet set manager is opened.
MLeader
  • The landing on mleaders can change unexpectedly when certain LISP routines are run.
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when using Check Standards on drawings with leaders.

  • Temporary IDW files with "dwg.tmp" extension are created when a file with model documentation drawing views from AutoCAD 2013 is opened in AutoCAD 2012.
  • AutoCAD may become unstable after clicking the Publish button for drawings with AutoCAD 2013-created drawing views.
MText
  • AutoCAD LT may become unstable when setting the Mtext direction to vertical in the Property Palette.
OLE (Object Linking & Embedding)
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when using OLE to copy and paste Excel content.
OSnap
  • The final value for the line is using the total length instead of stretch/extension.
  • When using Osnap, then selecting a line with a grip, then stretching by entering an exact distance may not yield the expected length.
Other
  • AutoCAD may become unstable when opening drawings with possible corrupt array entities.
Performance
  • With DUCS turned on, the cursor may have been freezing after closing the block editor.
Plot
  • CTB, STB, PC3 and PMP files may not have been added to etransmit list when additional plot search paths were added.
