- OTRACK funcion stop function good,
- and some other changes that i didn't notice.

Thanks in advance for all comments.

As a rule, it's safe to say that AutoCAD's settings don't just change
spontaneously. The most common cause is add-on software (.LSP, .VLX, .ARX
....) that is badly designed, and change settings for their own purposes,
then fail to reset them. Even Express Tools can cause this, especially if
certain ones are interrupted by an error or a user-depressed ESC key.

I know that AutoCAD settings don't just change by it's own. But some "thing"
did make changes. Nobody didn't install anythink, but it is possible that
some Ad-aware from Internet did some of this damage.

Any suggestion how to re-configure changed settings?

THX,
Uros.

 

No, it's very unlikely that the changes were made by "some Ad-aware from the
Internet." It's more likely some "tool" that belongs to AutoCAD that you're
not even aware of ... like the Express Tools.

But you can change any of your settings and system variables by simply
entering the correct command. Some are handled in the Preferences dialog,
others individually. Look up any of them in HELP if you're uncertain where
to look.

Worst case you could try re-installing ACAD.

 

I would do as the one person said reinstall acad and then go to profiles and
set it up the way you like it and I have even done it twice and saved it as
extra just in case I DID something to change my settings. Then go back to
your profile and use it. that way you alway's have a back up and can change
it in a matter of seconds. DH
