Using the new M2P to get the Mid Between 2 Points *Applies to: AutoCAD 2005*
In past releases of AutoCAD in order to find
the mid point between two points you would need to use Object Tracking
or the CAL command transparently. The CAL command and the MEE
function were limited to
just Endpoints, unless it was further customized. The new M2P Object
Snap is not limited
to just Endpoints or requires no additional customization to make
things work. Not only does it support all of the Object Snaps, but for many
companies it is one less item that they need to maintain between
releases. To access the new Object Snap, type _M2P at the command
line when prompted for a point. The other way to select the new
option is to hold down the SHIFT key and click the right mouse button.
This will bring up the Object Snap menu.
